Glen Campbell Forums

On page 63 of Kim Campbell's book " Gentle on My Mind: In Sickness and in Health with Glen Campbell " she states that Glen took her to a house he had recently purchased in Phoenix, Arizona and she observed as they drove up: A cobblestone driveway passed through wrought iron entry gates whe...

Taki, Interesting. Something to kick around! Quick answer...I haven't a clue. For the fans...A cent is a measurement used to measure how far apart two pitches are and is equal to 1/100th of a half step. I think there are 1200 cents in an octave.

T he first Precision Bass was produced in October 1951. Leo Fender borrowed a lot of characteristics from the Telecaster at the time, including the headstock, neck plate, truss rod nut, and control knobs. The 1957 headstock was made in the image of the first 1955 Stratocaster and remains today. The...

KMFrye54 Totally agree...and I could take either side of the conversation. But it is how things are done today. Whether the artists are dead or alive. Send me the * track and I will add (vocal, guitar, drum, whatever) Glen did nothing new for this record (for obvious reasons), so I think the respons...

Cowpoke, seemed odd to me that a "remake" would follow a "make" so closely. But maybe you have to look at the 4-5 year interim that existed prior to its release and maybe that is where this chapter gets legs. Maybe closer to 2014 than 2021? Maybe during that time, it was going to...

1958 Fender Duo Sonic.jpg The Fender Duo Sonic was seen as a student model guitar, an inexpensive model aimed at amateur musicians. It was referred to as a "3/4 size" Fender guitar. The original "Duo-Sonic" features two single-coil pickups and a vertical switch on the lower horn...

Interesting... "Glen Campbell's people got in touch and said they were doing a remake of his last album" Elton John Liner Notes: This track came about because I once said in an interview that the original version was one of the most beautiful songs I'd ever heard as it's about his battle w...

No...I haven't seen any Oscar references for Elton, Glen, or Elton and Glen.
Elton got one last year for Rocketman.

Elton obviously dug this song.
