Ooof. I listened to the first few bars of Universal Soldier, that’s BAD. I hope that was something the record company made him do before he made it big.

Someone posted this on a thread in the last couple days.

Glen Campbell doing Wichita Lineman with the Stone Temple Pilots. Relatively recent, and solid.

Wichita Lineman is one of the greatest songs ever. I say that as a rock lister mostly.

Bob Dylan called Witchita Linemanthe greatest song ever written.”

Glen Campbell was a superlative song interpreter and a masterfully adept guitarist. A friend once showed me a documentary about him made towards the end of his life, when he was suffering from Alzheimer's, but still remembered many of his old tunes and actually did a farewell tour for more than a year. It was very moving. Here is the trailer: Glen Campbell: I'll Be Me Official Trailer 1 (2014)

And here is my favorite gospel song by Glen Campbell: No More Nights
