Glen Campbell 1st Time on TV with Bagpipes Amazing Grace 1973
Музыка
/ glencampbell
Glen Campbell performs Amazing Grace on his first set of bagpipes on the BBC in London in April 1973. To the best of our knowledge, this is the very first time Glen performs with the instrument on TV, as he had recently learned how to play them in the year preceding this telecast.

So let’s get this straight. One of the best singers of the twentieth century, a chart-topping recording artist, and a world class guitar virtuoso. Then he comes out and tops it all with Scottish bag pipes. Players gonna play.

Alice is also a very fine songwriter and performer, bob Dylan said years back that he is a very fine songwriter that doesn't get the recognition that he deserves
There was no end to this mans talent. I’m watching in 2020 with tears running down my cheeks . God bless you Glen heaven.🇦🇺🦋❤️

I haven't even watched this yet and I know I'm going to cry because I was such a child when I heard this. I'm 66 years old now
Glen Campbell was super talented, Heavenly father , thank you for the time he had with us
Salute to Sir Glen Campbell, You came, sang, conquered everyone’s heart and gone but not gone out of our minds and hearts, amazing grace He is, God bless
100% talent. God graced him with an extraordinary talent for the rest of us to appreciate. Thank you Glen and God.
I saw Glen in concert..just before his diagnosis....now he is singing in Glory!!! No more night!!!
Glen Campbell was an amazing singer, musician and entertainer and so underrated as well. He was one of the worlds best guitarists also and he had a beautiful singing voice! What a legend.
Glenn is one of my favorite singers and amazing grace is one of my favorite hymns. I'm blessed to hear Glenn sing my favorite songs and hymns. Such a beautiful man.
One of the most talented men ever! RIP Glen.
I LOVE his rendition of Amazing Grace! I have listened to him since I was a child. Such a talented man.
Was there nothing this man couldn't play? Every instrument he touched, he mastered. The Lord called him to Heaven to master the harp which I'm sure he has. Such talent we on Earth lost to a Greater audience...😭
Wow. He is still surprising me after watching him for 50+ years. I was hoping he was going to return to the stage with his guitar. But, what did I see? Bagpipes? Glen, thank you for all the amazing moments you gave to us over the years. And they are still happening.
I always loved it when he played the bagpipes... especially little drummer boy and mull of kintyre
This is what is always means to play a great piece of classic music with passion and purpose. Let's just take a moment to accept and appreciate it's beautiful sound of God's love and grace through the people who have a great gift for us to enjoy

What a great singer , a legend.
Simply awesome
I love this hymn and have sung it in church my entire life. The best part for me is that by the Amazing Grace of God and through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as having paid my sin debt in full, I truly once was blind but now I see. I was saved over 44 years ago and have never been the same person since!
Beautiful performance ~ Glen Campbell was a Piper for nearly 45 yrs! A few bagpipe purists have told me that he wasn’t a REAL piper. I’ve played for 2 1/2 years, and yes, I can hear that he doesn’t exactly play the ancient “embellishments” (and ONLY those). Yet he has applied modern “ornamentation” beautifully to his Piping. Fine by me.

Yeah, they are likely jealous of his overall talent, which was incredible. How many pipers can sing, play bagpipes and guitar and banjo?

April 1973, I was almost 18 yrs old and headed to Parris Island. Miss you Glenn.
What a star!!!!!!!!!!!
My God, that was beautiful! Glen Cambell, truly a gift to us from above.
Time takes such a terrible toll on every living thing. Grew up listening to Dick Bills and His Sandia Mountain Boys, featuring lead guitarist Glen Campbell. Coming to you live weekdays from KOB Radio, 770 AM in Albuquerque.
Как мило! Обожаю эту песню! Гимн все народов света!
My favorite, glen playing bag pipe holy shit !!!!!!!!
I LOVE this!
Miss him! RIP Glen!
I’m Scottish and seen glen in Edinburg in his early days he ended the show playing amazing this blue my mind away with hairs on the back of my neck
That was fantastic from Glen.
A musical Genius! Glenn you've earned your place in Heaven. God bless you.

Still great!!
Sweet spirit he was forever grateful with this natural singer
WOW
Such an amazing performer. I am in awe.
Just visited his grave in June. There's piped music 🎶 of him playing bagpipes there when you enter. Just amazing
beautiful
Not just one of the all time guitar greats.
Campbell is now gone.. what a loss! I hope his faith is rewarded and he is in fact in some great place.

What a genius he was. Who the heck can play the bag pipes, just for fun.
A bag pipe musician once asked me, "How do you get two bagpipes to play in tune? Shoot one of the players." Bagpipe is not an easy instrument!

Charlotte Fairchild - Aw c'mon. They can be tuned. The problem is so many so called pipers don't know how to. Another problem is most people listening don't know the difference and wouldn't know a good piper if they fell over them. Anyway....Do you know the difference between a dead snake on the road and a dead piper on the road? There's skid marks before the snake. Don't blame me for that one. I'm a piper.

@@mudskipper0075 - As you are obviously aware, that's not only true for a solo piper but if a band isn't tuned spot on to each other the sound waves cancel each other and the volume and tone of the band goes down the tubes. If 5 pipers are tuned together properly, they have more volume and tone than 15 that aren't.
Oh Wow ,He Could Play And Sing Anything.
How is it, that this genius, who does not read music, can play bagpipes!!!!
