Terry Reid (born 13 November 1949, Huntingdon, England) is a rock singer and guitarist.

After leaving school at the age of 15, Reid joined Peter Jay’s Jaywalkers after being spotted by the band’s drummer, Peter Jay. At the time Reid was playing for a local band, The Redbeats. His public profile was enhanced in 1966 when The Jaywalkers were named as a support act for The Rolling Stones for their concert at the Royal Albert Hall. Graham Nash of The Hollies became friends with Reid at that concert and suggested The Jaywalkers sign up with Columbia Records to record with producer John Burgess. Their first single, the Soul-inspired „The Hand Don’t Fit the Glove,“ was a minor hit in 1967, but by then The Jaywalkers had already decided to disband.

Reid came to the attention of hits producer Mickie Most, who became his manager. His first single with Most, „Better By Far,“ became a radio favourite, but the album, Bang Bang, You’re Terry Reid, was not a commercial success. A 1968 tour of the United States with Cream did much to gain Reid a loyal following. His final performance of the tour at the Miami Pop Festival garnered positive reviews from the music press. In 1969, Reid supported various British tours, notably Jethro Tull and Fleetwood Mac.

Yardbirds guitarist Jimmy Page became interested in Reid’s work, and when The Yardbirds disbanded, Page wanted Reid to fill the vocalist spot for his proposed new group, the New Yardbirds, which was to become Led Zeppelin. Reid had already committed to go on the road with the Rolling Stones (as an opening act on the 1969 US Tour).
