An awesome video find, Cowpoke! I agree, Randy--great, well-deserved compliments!

I think you all will be glad to know that these clips were in the latest version of "I'll Be Me", the one that I saw in November 2014.

The Elevator Scene with Glen, Kim, Ashley and Paul McCartney totally rocks! Keith Urban, too! He really "gets" Glen Campbell. Really, all of the testimonials are tremendous.

The scene with Blake Shelton is actually a bit longer...it was taken during a rehearsal...maybe for the 2012 Grammys?...I remember seeing Julian Raymond rehearsing in the band!

Isn't that scene showing Glen overwhelmed with Hawaiian wreaths or leis from the very first Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour? I love that that piece of footage got into the film.

And I think it was very smart of James Keach to include Steve Martin's interview because Steve was a writer for the Goodtime Hour, so Steve was able to share his perspective about Glen from the late sixties.

That's great Randy. So most of these comments are outtakes, not seen in the movie? That makes it extra special.
Isn't it awesome to have Paul McCartney coming up to Glen after the 2012 Grammy performance and tell Glen that he loves him?
And Bruce Springsteen, still one of the biggest artists on the planet. He really nails it, in describing Glen's brilliance as a singer.

Some cool excerpts from the movie. Celebrities singing Glen's praises. Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, Steve Martin, just to name a few.

@ Cowpoke: lol
I really would like to know how many of the voting members actually saw "I'll Be Me". Just curious because we have seen a few news reports about a screener not being available for this documentary.
