The Beach Boys connection alone would be enough to earn my respect, but then I saw him perform live in '68 and I was very impressed. Also, he gave John Hartford a hit record that allowed John to have a successful career so there's that feather in his cap. He was one talented singer and picker.

I have always enjoyed Glen's music, guitar playing, singing, great hair. I remember watching his show with my father in my formative years. I married a wonderful woman but she has banned Glen from our house, my music collection. The day after Glen died I went to her with my hat in hand and asked if I could get a Glen compilation. YES! A 2 cd set is in the mail. |
A visual and audio DVD testimonial to his talents ..... a 2001 recorded PBS performance with the South Dakota symphony orchestra backing GLEN-CAMPBELL-Live-in-Concert-2001-PBS-DVD- His guitar playing talents are also emphasized that validate his talents in the Wrecking Crew and also places him in the same strata of the all-time greats including Les Paul, Mark Knoffler, and Chet Atkins His incredible performance backed by the symphony orchestra left me stunned ..... highly recommended . here’s a sampler...... a smokin’ guitar rendition of the William Tell Overture https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GUBhE00h9U0 And Classical Gas https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=V4Ga67EDrKI |
