Glen Campbell Keith Urban

10 things you didn't know about Glen Campbell

[@terithomsen6549]

I was at this Phoenix concert where Keith invited Glen to play with him. By this time, we were all aware that Glen's health was presenting greater challenges for him. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would see my top 2 favorite guitarists, separated by a generation, on the same stage! I'm a Phoenix native and Glen was a part of our home town for more than 20 years (until this tragic disease forced his wife to move them to Cali). He was absolutely the nicest man who always had a kind word for a stranger while he was about town. I know we all mourn the loss of this amazing human.

[@mechanicman72]

LOVE THIS VIDEO1 How kind of Keith to do this, and how lucky are we to be able to see it. Yesterday was the 2nd anniversary of my husband's dying, so am feeling more than a little nostalgic, since my husband always reminded me of Glen. What a loss for us...

[@MultiFortunate1]

What year was this??

[@markfisher6211]

Nice comment heart felt …both awesome artists.

[@mariellereilly361]

Lucky you 🍀

[@merrilynstanger7241]

That must have been pure magic

[@thecollective1584]

I have seen this video a hundred times, and every time it comes across my feed, I watch it again. Just to see Glen fighting Alzheimers the whole way through, and watching Keith with him makes my heartless, jaded ass melt. There is a point where you can see Glen get a bit lost, and Keith very calmly turns towards him so Glen can see the fretboard and get back in place. 99% of non-musicians would miss it. Keith's attitude throughout this is not only joy at playing with a hero, but one of live and protection...... Thumbs up to both

[@johnspensieri4332]

You’re spot on. Glen loses his spot but Keith stays cool as all great musicians do, great review.

[@professionalprocrastinator8182]

It’s Keith that makes a mistake at 3:00

[@valerieaustin8428]

I cry every time I listen to this song since the 70s. I told my kids to play it at my funeral!

[@thecollective1584]

@@professionalprocrastinator8182 You'll notice no one said anything about Glen making a mistake. Glen, very simply, got lost. Having taken care of Alzheimer's patients for a number of years, it is not an uncommon occurrence. If you watch the documentary, during his last tour, especially towards the end, he gets lost several times, and his daughter is playing behind him to help out.

[@richardfox2865]

This is pure class from both guys. This is the way things should be...

[@VitalityMassage]

From the internet: Glen Campbell was one of Keith Urban's musical idols, so the superstar was thrilled when he got the chance to actually jam with the legendary guitarist and singer in 2009. The two men made acoustic magic at Urban's Las Vegas gig during his Escape Together World Tour in June of 2009, when Urban called Campbell to the stage to join him for Campbell's classic hit, "Wichita Lineman." Campbell recalled meeting Urban when he was still an up-and-coming musician during a trip to Australia and giving him the advice to always keep practicing - advice Urban admitted he was still following to that day, years into a successful career. "He's the best in the world," Campbell lauded Urban.

[@JeffDaytonMusic]

Loved this... I am still so grateful that I got to play guitar with ol' Glen for 15 years and be his friend... thanks for posting this.

[@johnpastirchak1053]

Heavily promoted as a vocalist, many fans never fully appreciated his incredible talent on guitar.

[@paulblank6161]

I remember you Jeff. You were always playing alongside of Glen. You were terrific!!

[@rolfgehrung2099]

I know he taught you a lot and you passed just a little on to me. Thanks man

[@gregrobeson7969]

Hi Jeff... I saw Glen probably 15 times in the five years leading up to his final retirement (including three of his last 10 shows). I always enjoyed watching the two of you play together, particularly when you took the solo on this song with the four-string. Some of my finest memories... Wichita Lineman was the first single I bought when I was a kid and literally wore it out.

[@helainenatko]

Hello 👋 Sharon.

In a world full of overly hyped mediocre guitar players, Glen was a true legend that didn't get the credit he truly deserved.

[@bud3094]

Keith is such a class act.. Recognizing greatness.. RIP Glen Campbell..Big hat tip Keith.. Thanks for the post!

[@stephencraig5938]

Two great underrated guitar players ever. Keith is really vibing here. He knows he's next to one of the biggest legends in music ever.

[@darrellsomers5427]

Keith is nowhere near the AX slayer Glenn was

[@stephencraig5938]

@@darrellsomers5427 no but he does have a unique sound soldered by a decade of playing Nashville bars.

[@mugsypea]

Beautiful! As a professional musician occasionally we screw up and lose our place just as Keith did towards the end. Glenn and Keith kept it going and got back on track. It happens to us all but adds the human touch and soul that is sorely missed in todays music. An outstanding performance.

[@moeb4348]

Keith sure recovered quickly with the few flubs he found himself in. Nice job!

[@PlanetRockJesus]

As a rocker growing up in the 60's (born 1953), I always loved Glen Campbell. There was just something about his sound. And his guitar playing!

[@lancelotlink3907]

My favorite Glen Campbell song. Watched Glen and Urban sing in Phoenix around 2003. I did not know who Urban was at the time but had respect for him after I saw the respect he gave Glen.

[@craigslist3208]

Glen Campbell is an icon, and, like Brian Wilson, never received the recognition he deserved during his lifetime. Like another person commented, there were many in the music industry who tried to paint him as simple or insignificant. To those I simply say - "Let's see if anyone is listening to YOUR music 50 years from now." Thank you Keith for giving Glen this well deserved extra moment in the spotlight. You can see by the sparkle in his eyes and that wonderful smile that he loved it.... and I won't even begin to touch on his amazing guitar work. I mean the man's a musical genious! Enough words now, I just wanted to listen to Glen sign again.

[@jamespettersson9655]

that was such a well constructed beautiful guitar solo, Glen always made good choices and never played the same solo twice.

[@timpeters7867]

Keith urban is no slouch on guitar or vocally but respects his elders and is the real dea. glen Campbell at his ages and in the grip of alzheimers.Well done both men. Brilliant.

[@BelloBudo007]

I absolutely love it when I see the next generation showing so much Respect to those who went before & made it all so possible for them to enjoy their art. And that's what I'm seeing Keith Urban demonstrating with Mr. Campbell.

[@AN-cy7xm]

The support & the care of Keith Urban here, or Brandi Carlile on stage with a frail Kristofferson is just so incredibly beautiful.

[@dennisb.mcguire1236]

Years before I ever got my hands on my first six-string acoustic guitar, I saw Roy Clark play guitar and then Glen Campbell play guitar and I thought "this is as good as guitar playing can get. I'll never get that good at it." And I was right, but that's okay. Still great to see two masters play together.

[@duaneholcomb8408]

Glen was one of the best guitarist that ever played one. He started off as session player.

[@Stringman1950]

Thank you, Keith. You’re made of similar stuff as Glen. You’re right, he was self-effacing and always put the song first.

[@phyllisnunn2061]

That crystal-clear, beautiful voice is unmistakable! One of the artists whose songs appear spontaneously in my mind, even after all these years...

[@julianasabina1882]

So beautiful. Urban was blessed... and he knew it.

Very cool that such a current Music Star like Keith Urban had such roots with the amazing Glenn Campbell. Well done Mr. Urban... Well done

[@rvator7291]

He was searching for the key with his capo, but still pulls out a nice solo. He was incredible to the bitter end. A true master of hybrid picking before it was called that.

[@arciefan]

Eleven brothers and sisters, Glen said they slept four to a bed, and joked he never knew what it was to sleep alone until he got married.

[@janestevens524]

This totally choked me up! This world will never see the likes again, of such an incredible musician, or human!

[@eohippusone]

Glen was so incredibly gifted, it simply defies description. He could play any tune. He was maybe the best natural pop/country musician ever.

Urban really created a space for Campbell and yet, toward the end, paid Campbell great, great respect by pushing Glen by really changing up the tune. Of course, Campbell rose to it.

Glen was a major influence on me as well. I respected and admired his talents. Purchased my Glen Campbell model Ovation in the 70s. God bless Glen may he RIP.

[@MikeSuttonXerox]

One other interesting and incredible fact was he could not read music and did all his sessions by ear and feel. That really is amazing to note. Great video and channel!

[@touch3010]

Wow I would never have guessed that. Makes him even more incredible. Can't remember who said it or how it went exactly but it was along the lines of, "When God gave out talent, Glenn got the most', something like that.

[@sixstrings1490]

Indeed a legend, Glen Campbell a wonderful man, bless him, a song writer, guitarist, and sooo good with the Vocals ! He is surely missed by the millions who grew up with his Music. I wish I could have met Glen, and I would love to jam with Keith too ! Keith Urban makes you sit up and listen, taking Country Rock by the scruff of the neck, writing some great songs, and gets thousands of women screaming. His guitar prowess is outstanding. (one wrong chord is forgiven mate) A great DUO ! 🎵

[@survivrs]

Keith appeared to be so mesmerized by that once in a lifetime chance to play alongside Glen. Keith is only one of the multiple thousands who would love to have had the opportunity to play with someone like Glen and a talent that won't be coming around very soon. Glen could play the guitar on his head once, maybe more, it's here somewhere, I've seen it more than a few times.
