Ol' Joe couldn't resist exposing him publicly with videos and photo posts of his arrest.

Saw Glen three times, the last being his farewell tour. He forgot the words but somehow kept playing. We all were silently rooting for him. Finally, the words came back, we cheered, and shortly after the performance ended. I am glad I went to hear him despite knowing what was before him. Seeing videos reminds me of happy times, but I will never forget how you could feel the audience silently saying, come on Glen, you can do it, and he did not disappoint. I watched as his daughter loving played by his side being his personal cheerleader. The rest of us just spectators of man whose gift from God was immense talent.

One of my life's regrets is that I never took them up on the offer to go with them to see Arthur Fieldler and the Boston Pops. I had no idea they were such a cultural institution. Such is the curse of youthful stupidity. There's probably a good chance my parents were at THAT show because that was in the right time period for their nights out at the Pops.

Jerry reed or Roy Clark aren’t so bad either, but Glen picked with all five of his right hand!

[@unknownentity2429]

@@Frank00 all three are awesome . Id actually pick Roy Clark as the best

[@erwinmonti5066]

​@@unknownentity2429Why Clark said he didn't even know 25% of what you could do to a guitar compared to Glenn Campbell so he said that on the show when? Glenn Campbell wasn't even there so please no what you hopper about before you open your mouth.

[@lisamurphy5770]

One of the greatest guitarists in the world, no doubt!

[@johnborzcik3058]

Glen was such a talented guitarists and rates as one of the most talented! We miss him! Rest in Peace.

[@BTBEV3469]

I remember Glen from his show and all the other appearances on TV when I was a kid. It wasn't until a few years ago my boss asked me to dub a video of his "Goodbye" Concert in Kansas City that I truly appreciated how insanely talented he was as a player and a composer. That good old boy attitude and smile truly hid a musical genius & virtuoso.

I was basically raised by glen’s cousin... every time I see him.. I see Terry. Makes me happy and sad. Damn that hurts...

[@jimbannan7106]

Damn. There is talent and then there is a select group that is beyond gifted. I loved finding this piece with Glen fronting the Boston Pops Orchestra. My dad loved them.

My Uncle was part of the WGBH camera crew that filmed these shows, he said Arthur Fiedler could be a real monster to members of the orchestra

"Gentle on My Mind"...when sung by Glen Campbell just a great story. A great rendition. Give it a listen please.

[@annemerevo1038]

Fantastic!!!! That was impressive!!! Glen Campbell was an incredible talent. Thank goodness for KZbin. He lives on for all to see!!!!

[@rexroman5211]

Juxtaposition of guitar genius with some of the best musicians ever!

[@rustybearden1800]

If this three minute and 45 second clip doesn't exemplify the genius and virtuosity of Glen Campbell then I don't know what else will

[@kc696969]

He was amazing in so many ways.

[@jameshill1740]

Campbell is still one of those top all time guitar players. Talent folks. Real talent

[@dianemcvey193]

Glen Campbell was fantastic and we miss him so much

[@haggispingvin3296]

Glen what a talent one of the best guitarrist ever.

[@jimmyb1559]

Known mainly as a singer. However he was a very talented guitar player. I just learned he was also a member of the Wrecking Crew in the 60’s and played the guitar on many of the hits from that era. Miss him. Thankfully we have the music to remember him by.

[@kevinforth7618]

That was excellent, and a great reminder of how strong Campbell's playing was.

[@bevinboulder5039]

If I ever knew Glenn was such an amazing guitarist, I apparently forgot it long ago because this really blew me away.

[@stevemann3080]

SUPER GUITARIST 🎸🔊

[@charlesbartholomew2910]

A Genius! That man could play!
