When I was growing up in Vegas, Glen was often playing on "the Strip." He was a big draw. Now, I'm not a big country fan but a beautiful ballad is a beautiful ballad and I found myself drawn to "Galveston." Still have the 45.
Glen was quite the guitarist, too. Here he is playing with a true god of the stringed instrument, Roy Clark (who I was lucky to see a few times at the Frontier Hotel showroom):

Cool! I never knew that he did so much Studio work with a guitar on albums that needed fill work.. And that he actually filled in for one of the Beach Boys both with a guitar and his voice for some concerts..
He did a lot of studio work as a member of the Wrecking Crew. He played on the Beach Boys' Pet Sounds album. He also did some of the guitar for The Monkees. He was a brilliant guitarist.
And I need you more than want you
And I want you for all time

has anyone else seen this? It brought tears to my eyes. Just love Tanya Tucker. her and Glen Campbell were listened to so much as I was growing up.
My father used to listen to Glen Campbell. I like Radiohead's cover of his song Rhinestone Cowboy.
Lost respect for her because of how she acted when he was sick.
Glen and Tanya certianly had their ups and down. as when he knocked out her tooth.
I'm talking about how she tried to make it all about her when he had Alzheimer's. I'm glad that not only his family stopped her but also media quickly dropped it, not giving her the attention was was searching for.
What did she do? The only thing I saw was she just wanted to see him, before he was totally lost in his disease. I'm not so sure that's something bad.
There's a C&W song in that!
Sad that someone who isn't in the spotlight anymore does something like this. Sometimes 'celebrities' just need to go away.....
