Glen Campbell - Wichita Lineman, Galveston, Dreams of the Everyday Housewife & Gentle On My Mind

[@jeftex8875]

One of the most underrated guitarist that ever graced planet Earth

[@Hearsticles]

*Highly rated, and yet still underrated. He is a true monster on the fretboard, has a unique style unlike anyone else, moves seamlessly between styles, compliments the rest of the band perfectly, never loses the melody. Fixed that for you, Wayne!

[@ernieflanaganstingraybassm1463]

60s he played on everything 1 best

[@robertalcala899]

Indeed

[@2011littlejohn1]

Well they did name a guitar after him. :)

[@fionabryant2311]

I totally agree with your comment jef

[@Al-sq5ti]

2024 and I still can't hold back when I hear this song sung by the Great Glen Campbell 😢

[@alarmfannh]

Ain’t no lip syncing for Glen. 100% pure talent.

[@johnheinrich6907]

Lip syncing, hell, it’s was probably Glen performing the song in the recording studio, so much of the rock music back in the day, it was Glen on guitar and singing harmonies, I believe he played on about 600 songs, beach boys, Monkees, Frank Sinatra and a ton of others, Tina turner, Shelley Fabre’s johnny angel.

[@tacogillespie4561]

Through the back roads of our memories we tend to forget the importance that Glen Campbell had on popular American music. One of the greatest cross-over artists and guitar players of the century. We will be hard pressed to find the likes of his musical talents again. Godspeed my friend..

Ultra Talent

[@breeze5210]

Well said a true music legend he was RIP Glen ❤

[@macadaims]

His music is all over the world

[@mantis1962]

Glen is a unique talent and was given the full order of it. Such a velvet voice, polished style and awesome musicianship.

[@dianer558]

Glen, know you are so loved. Your music moved me so ever since I was a little girl. May you meet our dear Lord, seeing His face and resting in perfect peace. God bless you!!!

[@johncardwell95]

Love these comments Diannex

[@kimberlywanzer8694]

Miss him so very much..I was a little girl watching his variety show and listening to every word..and his sense of humor was the best too...when I found out he had Alzheimer's I cried....I was a caregiver for Alzheimer's patients and I knew how hard it must have been for his family...God bless them

[@JulieAnderocci]

We need Glenn Campbell 😊😊😊😊😊

[@leslieparker8584]

His incredible talent is monumental & unsurpassed. We miss you, Glen. ❤

[@rosemariekelley68]

Admire this wonderful god given talent

[@robmorrison1043]

When Glen rips into that solo on Galveston, it reminds you what a world class guitarist he was. It also shows how when a Stratocaster is in the hands of a master player, it is the sweetest, most versatile and vest looking guitar ever. The tone coming from that Strat is phenominal.

[@mariaari8513]

I love when he says, “I need you more than love you and I need you for all time” ❤️

[@TheBlueskyson]

How can you hear 1 guitar while an entire orchestra is playing ?

[@clairelivefreeordie2551]

@@mariaari8513 I agree Maria...my sentiments too when reading this..that 1 little lyric will be remembered forever. Rest Glenn, rest sweet man ⚘

[@freebird1292]

Did he take the top volume knob off of it?

[@agentxyz]

One of the most talented musicians. It's amazing that he couldn't read music but could still play anything

[@charlesstockford6003]

I was a violinist and couldn't really read music. For some reason our fingers know where to go.

Having been a professional musician for more than 30 years, I've never heard a more accomplished musician and singer than Glen Campbell...his was a gift from God.

[@cakewalker21]

I wholeheartedly agree George! I was born in the late 50's. Most of my inspiration came from the 60's and Glen was probably the biggest. Started playing professionally in the mid 70's and Glen is still an inspiration to this day. "His was a gift from God!"

[@alphacentauri8083]

The phrasing on his guitar solos in this video is very good indeed. If I'm not mistaken, wasn't he a studio musician before he embarked on his solo career?

[@boblewis8463]

tinian33 You bet. Check out The Wrecking Crew and be prepared to be blown away. :-)

[@normal_media]

[@govegg2]

His music is so heart felt, and beautiful!! I get goose bumps. He is truly missed!

TY BUCK I AGREE TOTALLY

[@carlyletom301]

Witchita Lineman is a song that transports me back to when I was 5 yrs old. Each and every time I listen to it, so melancholic.

[@dianer558]

AlexfromSwitzerland I share your memories at 53. Glen could really move you to joy and tears. What a man, what a musician. Loss of such talent is painful. Little by little our childhood is more of a distant past. I am grateful we had Glen and the joy he brought to us all. May he rest with our dear Lord. God bless

[@itsmekaren1884]

The memories of growing up, as I listen to his songs I find myself fighting back the tears. I am 50 as well and the images of my mom and dad listening to his music, Wow! Yes, great times growing up then!!!My father passed away several years ago from Alzheimer's complications..😞such a tragic disease for the whole family...

[@elaineholleran8814]

Not only has Glen have an incredible voice he is also a incredible musician. His guitar work is second to non. He has such a great God given talent. I love rock and roll but i have always loved Glen and i pray for him every night. I am my mom in laws care giver and i know what he is going through. I have lived it every day for the past 3 years. Bless Glen and his family.

What a master. I have been listening to Glen as long as i can rember. Nothing like playing his music an just laying back and rembering the past years, I tell you they were great. Thanks Glen

[@mikewilson6512]

Watch the wrecking crew documentary. That will open your eyes to the true musicians of this world. Glen Campbell was simply AMAZING. Many of the greats are from the 60's, 70's and early 80's many of todays musicians SUCK! The true innovators where these guys!

[@jkanderson2404]

Recently watched CNN's special on Glen Campbell, and it made me search for his music. I grew up with much of his music, and forgot how good it still is! Thank you, Glen, for the music!

[@suziq105]

Just watched the Netflix documentary, I'll be There. Great story about Glenn, his music, as well as his journey through Alzheimer's .Very touching..

[@oilspill321]

Watched his documentary a couple of years ago. Then here a couple of weeks back, I enjoyed the happy/sad aspects. I think my older brother, or mom had one of his albums in the late 60s/early 70s. Never realized how good it was till now that I'm older.

[@angieheidman3577]

So VERY GRATEFUL for Him; he made me so very HAPPY in young years. The old Legends die but their LEGACY lives forever; thank GOD there were Video recordings, also. The Dude was AWESOME.

[@jeffrey3498]

glen was the real deal.

[@Brian-oi8cg]

This song is lovely

[@natecheramie1738]

Since I first heard Glen on his TV show in the 60's I believe then and I believe now we will never again be blessed with such a talent.

[@tomk3620]

I saw Glen Campbell many times LIVE in Las Vegas! He always stunned the crowd Vocally and Instrumentally! He had troubles off stage...YES...but Ultimately he will be Remembered as a Master of the Guitar and a great interpreter of a Lyric!!! YOUR MUSIC IS ETERNAL!!!

[@martinjcamp]

You’re very lucky to have seen him in concert!

He got better and better later in life with his voice and playing it made his songs go to another level.

One of a kind very sad so talented thumbs up 👍🏻

[@mickwelch8515]

When he was at the top of his game and the most famous he was the most famous singer in the world (Rhine Stone cowboy on radio all day long) and his tv specials were huge.

Driving my pickup down a long Kansas road at sunset listening to Glen sing Wichita lineman..the true meaning of Americana...goose bumps..

[@cherylcunningham4238]

I don't know if it's the age of people commenting on here or the type of music but I have never seen such nice comments on any video I have watched here and I have seen a ton, all types of music. It's really nice for a change not to see people fighting, swearing, or putting down who is playing in the video. ☺

[@norigibson]

Thanks for all the joy you brought to people. I'm glad you aren't suffering anymore. God bless you, Glen

[@scottfulkerson5383]

I so passionately like his music that I came to watery eyes. tears when it went into "Gentle On My Mind" just thinking about his talent and those days and times when Hollywood entertainer's as Glen Campbell shine on as the best of all time. Those were the days...

Was in Walmart a few days ago and "Galveston" came on the PA. I was surprised to find myself suddenly stopping and getting chill bumps -- most unusual. I had forgotten how much I liked his voice. What a talent. Can't wait to see him in heaven.

He sings every song as if he wrote it himself, which he may have written some, but a great inspired genius delivery, rendition, and interpretation of even his own earlier songs.

I'm retiring this year and Glen Campbell has been a part of my Life since childhood in the 60's. He was such an influence on "country/western" type music there's nobody quite like him. Not truly country but more of almost a folk type music when you really listen to the lyrics. He's honestly been a part of my Life more than I ever thought about until I heard of his passing. We lost a jewel and a true human being, flaws and all... RIP Glen

[@norigibson]

You got that right. Talent like his comes along rarely. Us old guys were lucky to have been able to have enjoyed his wonderful gifts to us. His music will always ring in my mind.
