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

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.

One of the most underrated guitarist that ever graced planet Earth

*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!

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

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..

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

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

glen was the real deal.

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.

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!"

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.

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

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.

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...

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.

A real musician! Listen to how eloquent his guitar playing! Not just a virtuoso. A musician! ❤

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

In my view he is one of the best gat players just look at the wrecking crew I just love glen From Wellington New Zealand

This song is lovely

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!

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. ☺

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.

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.

The guitar rifts Glen would play were amazing.

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

He is why I took up guitar @ 11 yrs old. 🎸🎶😎

DID YA ALL HEAR HE SOLD MORE RECORDS THAN THE BEATLES!!! I GRADUATED IN 1970 WHEN HE WAS AT HIS HEIGHT...I REMEMBER HIS LIFE AND SHOWS!!! JUST LIKE YESTERDAY..THANK YOU GLEN FOR YOUR TALENT AND MUSIC, ALONG WITH YOUR WRITER...

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.

Glen Campbell had such a beautiful tenor voice.

This song goes out to my father Lloyd Leonhard.who was willing to trade me his Glen cambell 8 track tape,for my Charlie Rich cassette,Back in our days..xoxoxxo

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.

also .. aus ein zeitloses Zeit -.. die nur "Glen" mich erkennen lass -... Wichita for all Time -..

I love how they do the video like a photo album turning the pages.' I grew up listening to glen on the radio along with so many others the music that spoke with feeling and clarity .

Wow! What a talent. Rest easy Mr Campbell

Wichita Lineman is perfection. RIP Mr. Campbell

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

If there was ever a more talented guitar player, I don't know who it was.

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

GLEN YOUR WERE A TRUE ARTIST PLUS HAVING THE TALENT TO PLAY 200 INSTRUMENTS PLUS BAGPIPES YIKES YOU AND YOUR VICE ARE TRULY MISSED R.I.P. GLEN

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!!!

I’ll bet he had fun doing this in grand fashion and style. What a great showman and guitarist as well as a vocalist!

I think witchita lineman was his favourite to sing

Beautifully written songs, sung by an equally beautiful voice. Thx for sharing.

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

Always great..... N every one knew...... Every one respected his vocals n musicianship

Good grief that was a fantastic rendition of Galveston 😎

some of the best songs written at the time. God bless you Glen Campbell for the memories that I have from your songs you will always be a class act . Thank you

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...

That guitar lead on Galveston. Someone pick me up off the floor, please. Mercy.

Have always loved Glenn Campbell. While riding in the car with my mom , my mom would say when a Glenn Campbell song would come on " Did you know he was from Arkansas? " My mom was from Arkansas. She loved him too.

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.

Thank you Mr. Campbell for being a large part of the upbringing of my brothers and sisters. Raised destitute and impoverished in a small ghetto in southeast Connecticut, you were our hope, inspiration and reason for happiness. I pretty God that you liveda storybook life.

He was an exceptional performer.

If there is a God such as Campbell believed in, Glen is in his presence now.

R.I.P Glen thank you for all the great music!

The best entertainer I ever listen too.

He will be missed..

❤❤...what a hauntingly beautiful song sung like only he can sing...😊😊

Unbelievarble guitarist and flowing voice rythym.

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.

Rest in peace Glen Campbell!

I always forget that The Everyday Housewife is sung by the husband. And it always hits me when I hear it. So good.

Love to hear him play sing

Great music,all his songs had great means of life,Galveston my Favorite ,I still go Surfing in Galveston beach since the1960s

RIP great one.

God, he was so good.
