Is Glen Campbell on this Demo?

[arlw]

I just listened to Dee's post of Glen singing on that Demo, and even though it doesn't really sound like the Glen Campbell we all know and love, it is! He actually recorded that in a twang type of voice, but when listening to it, there are many parts that is his normal voice. Randy--listen to it again as it is a GREAT recording of that track Thank you Dee.

Thanks Randy,
I have that CD and it is Glen Campbell---Will try another link so you can hear Glen, but trust me those were his session days and thanks for the kind words!

I'm sorry on that YT link, that does not sound like Glen Campbell to me singing. I've been wrong before.

Here's a link that confirms (which I didn't need confirmation) of Arlw's post as I know she knows her stuff. I just wish the audio on this link here would play though

Sharron Sheeley: Songwriter

Dee-This IS Glen Campbell for sure!- If you check into Sharon Sheeley's CD's you will locate this....They are demo recordings from 1960 through 1962. David Gates and Leon Russell are on here too, along with others.

Hi, All,

Do you think this is an actual demo by Glen Campbell? It doesn't sound like him; perhaps he was just playing guitar?

"Glen Campbell - Blue Ribbons (For Her Curls) Early Demo Recording)"

Posted on YouTube with the following description:
In the early 1960's, Glen Campbell was still honing his skill as a performer, songwriter, singer, and studio musician. While he'd already had some success of his own as a solo artist, he continued to be an in-demand session guitarist, who also cut demos for songwriters. Written by Sharon Sheeley and Jackie DeShannon in 1963, this would be released in 1965 by Vic Dana, The Paramounts and Peter Ford. I suspect Glen's version of the song is from 1963. I like it, and I hope you do too. Enjoy!

I'm interested in reading what you all think about this recording. Thanks!
