I've seen alot of beautiful heartfelt tribute songs done for Glen, but this and when they did it on the CMA's is hauntily so powerful that if they ever and hopefully they will do a movie on Glen's life , I sure hope they include this beautiful tribute.

Thanks Cowpoke for uploading this link!

Somehow I missed this when it was published... but it's heartwarming to read all these comments by all these great artists.

Glen Campbell remains a mysterious figure in pop music, and the mystery only deepens when you pause to consider how well you know his recordings. Every pop, country, folk, soul and rock fan can hum his famous late-’60s records, most of them written by pop genius Jimmy Webb.
In other words, Campbell was a pop artist of a very pure kind. There’s no Glen Campbell aesthetic other than the aesthetic of being very good at what he did.
Quotes from a well-written in memoriam...

Interesting and well written article on how a singer from the south made a lasting impression on a boy from the north.

“Sadly Fragrant Flowers”: Reflections on Glen Campbell
August 11th, 2017 by Andrew

Nancy Sinatra remembers Glen Campbell on her official website with rare videos, photos, memories of her recordings with Glen as session musician, Goodtime Hour appearances and more!

https://nancysinatra.com/blog/2017/08/s ... -campbell/

This information particularly caught our attention!
In 1966, Glen made history with Nancy on her How Does That Grab You? LP. He played the psychedelic electric guitar solo on Nancy & Lee’s initial duet, “Sand,” the first record to incorporate a backwards guitar effect.
You can listen to "Sand" on Nancy's website or here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGfD2j9M1dA
