Often referred to as the 6th Beach Boy, member of the Wrecking Crew (the ultimate studio sessions back up band for damn near all 60s bands of note.....) The reason he was so accomplished as a guitar player is because he was true to himself. Alot of rockers wanted to be " rock and roll stars". Glenn Campbell endeavored to be an accomplished musician. He was about the music, not the fleeting fame and fortune of the music industry.

Indeed he could play anything.. When Glenn died, the great jazz virtuoso, Jimmy Bruno shared an anecdote about seeing him playing "Cherokee" with Roy Clark on some session in LA back in the 70's.. Jimmy Bruno is one of the greatest players in the world and he said he'd never seen such chops as what Glenn and Roy displayed that day.. Ha! Cool.

My wife and I saw Glen in Marksville, La. at the start of his farewell tour. I was struck by the fact that, despite numerous mid song pauses when he forgot lyrics, his guitar playing was flawless. I understand that until his death, he never lost his picking skills. His band that night included his daughter. When his memory failed he looked at his daughter and she came to his mike and sang the words until he picked the lyrics back up. It was by far my most emotional concert experience!

Glen was the first step in the transition.. I got to see Glen on the fair well tour in Boston... It was dream come true... I didn't get to meet him, but I talked to his daughter.. I will never play guitar, or sing like Glen Campbell, but you can find me on you tube , Predivorce Paranoia. The love of Satin, Plymouth Harbor moon.. Super natural woman... 21 songs I wrote...

One of my heroes. The first record I ever bought was a 45 of "Witchita Lineman", with pocket money I saved up picking up empty soda bottles on my way walking back and forth to our local town center. I was 7 years old and was mesmerized and fascinated by the beauty and melancholy sound of WL coming out of the radio. Then Gentle On My Mind, By The Time I Get To Phoenix, True Grit, The Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour, Southern Nights and Rhinestone Cowboy. This was a rather guilty, secret pleasure as all of my friends were listening to The Beatles, The Who, Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Rolling Stones, Led Zepplin, Allman Brothers and Skynyrd. I finally got to see him live in concert at Billy Bob's in Fort Worth in 1983. I stood right down in front, as close as I could get (which was practically face to face). One of the unforgettable live music moments of my life and I actually got to shake his hand and say hello after the show. Something about his humble, aw shucks, "watch this " personality was so endearing to me, not to mention his legendary status and reputation as one of greatest performers of our era. I still listen to Witchita Lineman at least once a week and it still moves me everytime, just like the seven year old kid that bought that record so long ago.

I was at the Arizona State Fair in 1966 where Glen was performing with his band. While playing a song one of his guitar strings broke. The audience gasped. The band stopped playing. He stopped playing, looked at the sky for about 4 seconds, turned to his band members and said, "Key of ..." and they continued playing in harmony in spite of his broken spring. We gave them a standing ovation.

He could without a doubt play any style of music. I believe rock would have been easier to play than most of what Glenn played. He is a legend and will always be my inspiration to play. Great video!

Glen Campbell had the gift where he could think a guitar riff and without hesitation play what he thought. Most have to practice through trial and error. I think Jimi Hendrix and Clarence White also had this amazing gift. Maybe all those years of session work reinforced this gift.

Alice Cooper had become one of Glenn's closest friends and golfing buddies. He made a eulogy video which was very touching. And in it he told of the time when Eddie Van Halen asked Alice to ask Glenn if he could have a guitar lesson. Your description of the tapping during a concert might not have been such a surprise.

He had a voice like honey and a knack for picking hits. He was such a good singer that only real pickers knew that he was a real picker. I like the photo from his Wrecking Crew days with Jerry Reed in the background. Jerry was another masterful picker that only other pickers knew about. It is a real nod to Glen’s ability that Jerry is quietly sitting there with a thoughtful look on his face just listening.

He happened to be a great singer, and he maintained his fantastic vocal range even in his seniorhood, something most aging singers only with they could do. But his singing was the icing on the cake. For me, his guitar playing was always the big attraction, from way back in the '60s when he was a studio cat. Thanks for making this video! BTW, it was obviously Leon Russell in that studio photo.

I loved his voice from the moment I first heard it. As a professional singer/guitarist from the 60`s through the 70`s I got to cover many of his & Jimmy Webb hit songs. My all time favourites are; By the time I get to Phoenix, Gentle on my mind and Wichita Linesman. I watched the TV docco of his farewell tour and shed a few tears to think of the musical wonder he created. I`m sure I`m not alone in saying that Glen will always be " Gentle on my mind."

He was excellent. Coming from me, someone who really didn't like country music even a little bit. He brought some inspiration to that time of my life . Thanks Glenn.

Glen was the best guitarist ever! He had a fantastic voice! I got to see him three times in concerts! The first one I got his autograph. I have 20 albums of his and three CD's. He is my favorite all time musician/singer!

He was my favorite back then, as a guitar player just learning , I had all his albums, man those were magical years. I still think there was no better music than those years.

I loved to hear Glen play guitar, I too think he was one of the best guitar players ever! If you missed getting to watch his show back in the day, then you missed a legend showing how it was done. RIP Glen !!

From what I’ve heard (read) EVH would ring Glen once or twice a week and said Glen was a major influence on Eddie. That’s immense! Both are undisputed legends! RIP Glen RIP Eddie Great video 👍🇦🇺 P.S. You just gotta watch the “Smoke from a distant fire” version Glen did! Absolutely beautiful

I saw Glen play live at a Grocers Association convention in 1988 in Phoenix, accompanied by the First Baptist Church choir. He stunned the crown by his amazing guitar work, some of which he played behind his back or on top of his head. His chord changes and scales were faster and cleaner than any player I’ve ever heard or seen. Never knew how talented he was on guitar - simply amazing. He

Glenn was something man. I cried when Glenn passed. I never watched him much till I got older but he was a gift to music and one of the best. I watched the special he had I be me and loved that movie man. He could still play even with that disease he could really play. Great video and thanks.

Glen was one of the best. Anyone who could sit in with the wrecking crew . A group of the best musicians in the world and play by ear, such as Tommy Tadesco Carroll Kay and many more . He was an amazing musician. I am sure a child prodigy. He could hear a song once and emiditly play it. That is someone who is gifted, no doubt.
