Before Glen Campbell became "Glen Campbell", he was a HIGHLY respected member of the Wrecking Crew (#1 LA-based studio musicians including the great bassist, Carol Kaye) and played on most, if not all, of the Beach Boys' hits...and so many other hits for so many others.

Fun fact:

When he recorded "Wichita Lineman", Carol Kaye was in the studio & Glen borrowed her 6-string bass for the instrumental solo.
