Glen Campbell Forums

Smiling here, too. Randy, this video made my week!

If is still difficult for me to understand even now, almost five years after the Glen Campbell Goodbye Tour ended, why there was a small contingent of fans (HK and a few others) who were extremely inflammatory in their posts on the now defunct Glen Campbell forum (see archives) about Glen's family allowing him to tour for one last time after his Alzheimer's diagnosis. Of course, for every glorious moment Glen had on stage (as seen in this Phoenix video), he had some not-so-glorious moments. Looking back at the tour now, I am so happy for him and grateful to his family that Glen was allowed these last grand moments to perform and enjoy doing what he loved. It was moments like the one seen in the video Randy posted that led to the film, I'll Be Me, which is still being screened after its theatrical premiere in 2014. The tour and the film set the benchmark for hope for people with Alzheimer's disease and their caregivers.

Jimmy Webb, quoted in a recent article, summed up Glen on the Goodbye Tour by simply saying,

"He (Glen) was one of the bravest men I ever knew,” Webb said.

Thanks again, Randy.

P.S. Also, on the same channel that uploaded the ACM Honors Tribute to Glen Campbell, "Galveston" and "MacArthur Park" videos are available from the same honors show. Super quality, too.

Wow, great find Randy. Love it. Glen playing a great surprise guitar lick in Dueling Banjos.

Cowpoke, I agree, Keith was doing fine job and Toby on Phoenix was excellent too, as they all were.

Thanks for posting Randy. I was especially impressed with Keith's guitar playing and the way Toby Keith sang By the Time I Get to Phoenix. Good stuff!

The tribute video is such good video quality and so good wanted to share it again, and have watched it many times. Was just thinking how cool it would have been at the end of "Rhinestone" if Ashley would have done the "And Cowgirlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll" part.

Great clips Dee, Thanks for posting.

Red Hot Chili Peppers doing Galveston during a concert in... you guessed it.

"Had to widen the road to get the white line down it" .... Gotta love it !

Glen Campbell Talks With Pat Boone (1985)
Uploaded to breautube on YouTube...the most satisfying thing for Glen in his career, Glen's gospel recordings, the very first song he remembers singing as a child in Billstown, his music video "Letter to Home", and more.
