I knew a lady who would hear a song on the radio on the way to a dance and when she got there, she was the piano player in the band, she would play that song perfectly from scratch and the rest of the band would have to catch up as best as they could.<br>Only one member is left now.

I always like to hear Glen play. It makes me want to pick-up my guitar and play along .

He was a truly wonderful man.

You'd think there would be at least a couple of bars of actual music in this, wouldn't you...

Glenn Campbell was an incredible guitar virtuoso. I’m sorry I never heard Chet and Glenn play together. Their phrasing and feel, synchronized, would have been delightful to listen to.

What I liked best about Glen Campbell is that he introduced us to John Hartford.

As I recall (late fifties) there was a radio show in Philly called "Folklore" that I always listened to; turns out that it played for decades after that, mostly folk music. I remember clearly that the host had a guest one time who was driving through from NYC on his way to LA. He was a guitarist and had a convertible with a trunk full of guitars, interesting guy...he was Glen Campbell way before he became so famous...I never forgot that.

I met someone who was a member of the wrecking crew in the 80s, and I asked him about the rumor that Glen couldn't read music. He said it was true, (long before Internet). He also said that one thing Glen did at that time was use a C capo, which wasn't well known in California at that time.

He was truly a great guitar player but….. He was equally greatp as a singer. He had such a voice.!!!

In every one of these AI stories Glen is dressed in jeans with a shirt with sleeves rolled up to the elbow and a guitar case that had seen better days.
