Glen loved to sing & he loved playing the guitar. His love for his craft shines thru his performances. One could tell he didn’t mind at all to d so big a song 100’s of times. And was a virtuoso on that guitar.
Big fan of Glen Campbell's. I especially like to see him and Roy Clark get together with their guitars. It's like magic!! I grew up with a radio, falling in love with the studio versions of songs. I realize that they, sometimes, can be hard to reproduce live and there are many covers that are better than the original. I also realize that some reactors like to see the artist performing instead of a thumbnail. 😉 I'll be back. 👍
Wow this really brings back memories of watching the The Glen Campbell Hour. I think it was called. Our family never missed an episode and he always had some great guests. He had a very unique voice I will never forget. 🥰✌❤
Glenn Campell grows on you like champagne, He's so musically gifted, he can play anything, One of my favorite performances of his, is not country, but it blows my mind and I can't get enough of it. "Mull of Kintyre" A Paul McCartney. song. Glen is performing in Ireland, his voice and passion is spectacular, and then he takes it right over the moon...picks up a Bag Pipe and plays like a dream. "Glen Campell Live in Dublin" Another performance that I can watch over and over again, (not country) is his "Classical Gas' on guitar. He was a studio player starting out, ( legendary Wrecking Crew ) became a 'Beach Boy' for awhile, but he is country at the core, born and raised..
Please, please check out Glen's concert in Sioux Falls that was produced by PBS! His incredible talent is on display, but he's as humble as can be. He performs with the SD Symphony, which is something he was doing then around the country. He performed with symphonies that play his music while he totally crushes it on the guitar! And the bagpipes! I really think he was at the top of his game at this concert. Sure, he was older. But he's just so comfortable doing his thing. It's mesmerizing!!!
The pride of Delite Arkansas. He the triple threat playing singing and writing. He was having trouble getting this song played on the radio. Merle Haggard took thousands of his 45's and wrote a message asking the radio stations to play this song. It went completely through the roof. A lot of Merle's early songs had Glenn playing on them
You can never get enough of Glenn Campbell. Although I am not strictly a country music fan I have all of Glenn Campbell's albums I bought when they came out. His death was a tremendous loss to the music world.
Little did you know when you started this journey, the treasures you would find. Been a great trip for us too, to look back, remember, and appreciate. And so much more great stuff ahead of you.
I remember when this song got a lot of air play in the late 1960's both on Country and Pop AM Radio Stations. Thanks for posting the video! Glen Campbell had so much talent, it just flowed from his very being. His vocal phrasing is on the level with C/W singer/vocalist Patsy Cline (she is the best)! I don't say that lightly... his improv in this live performance is great, but it's different from the original recording, but yet diminishes nothing in the performance. His master use of guitar is off the charts, yet it looks as though it is effortless!
A couple of Glen Campbell’s biggest Hits were RHINESTONE COWBOY and TRY A LITTLE KINDESS. And you might Enjoy a Glen Campbell instrumental performance WILLIAM TELL’S OVERTURE at THE ROYALFESTIVAL HALL in London in 1977.
Glen Said goodbye before his passing while still able, with two incredible Albums. Ghost on the Canvas and appropriately, Adios! His 63rd and 64th albums. The man could do anything. His song, I'm not gonna miss you! His goodbye to his wife! The foretelling of his demise from Alzheimers. Left me speechless! Adios was released after his passing. Fabulous! RIP GLEN
Love Glen Campbell💕incredible self taught guitar player also. He was a big part of The Wrecking Crew prior to his singing career 🤩ty for doing this song
Yes hugely talented. When Elvis was putting together his TCB band in the late 60s he asked around to see who the best guitar players were at the time. He was told that Glen Campbell and James Burton were. Glen was a star doing his own thing so Elvis took on Burton . Thanks for another classic PJ.
Glad you are getting around to this one. Definitely one of my favorites from Glen, even though he has so many good tunes . You should check out the studio recording, you may like it better; I do.
I want to recommend Mac Davis, "Baby Don't Get Hooked on Me". It would be an excellent follow up song like "By the Time I Get to Phoenix" And you are right. Glen Campbell could SING.
Glenn Campbell was an actor and singer, but above all he was a guitar player!! To see some of his greatness watch the you tube video of " Gentle on my Mind " posted by Jimmy Cee!!!
Glen Campbell and Jimmy Webb were a match made in heaven. When the history of music, not just country music is written, there will be many pages devoted to these two giants.
I just found your channel and went back to see some of the stuff you've reacted to and it's such an eclectic mix of music. Impressive. A lot of it I haven't heard in decades. This being one of them. Glen was a great talent and a fine guitarist.
This is another great song that GC did that was written by Oklahoma's own Jimmy Webb. Notice how the protagonist of the song ends up in Oklahoma. Glen does this live version with more of a funk type groove than the original studio version. Hadn't heard it before, thanks for posting. Glen actually did quite a few demos of songs for Elvis in the 1960s, and an album of these songs was released not too long ago.
Thank you, reminds me there is a short clip of Waylon winning male vocalist of the year in 1975. He already wasn't in a good humor with the award shows. Glen Campbell was the host and he and Waylon were friends. What he says when Waylon left the stage was priceless. Especially for 1975 on the CMA awards.
To me the lyrics are elegant. It conveyed the end of a relationship. How the person that is leaving plays it over and over in their head. My only complaint is the guitar solo could have been a little longer. Great pick and reaction P. J.
OK then. If you wanna play some way-back, how about some Barbara Mandrell? Her matching outfits, right down to her cowboy boots, were insane. "I was Country when Country wasn't Cool"
Most of what Glen recorded had a strong pop flavor to it. This is a very Country sounding song, The Hand That Rocks The Cradle. A duet with Steve Warner. Glen did a lot of duets with a lot of different singes, but I thought the voices of these two blended well. th-cam.com/video/5xbGY48bNWo/w-d-xo.html
@@DjPjrocReacts911 two Glen Campbell videos and a Bobbie Gentry was an automatic sub! If we're free to throw out suggestions, Jerry Lee Lewis's cover of She Even Woke Me Up To Say Goodbye is magnificent
I’ve been sitting here trying to figure out which Glen Campbell tune you should do next. Try A Little Kindness, (on my mix right now; great guitar intro,) Where’s The Playground Susie, one every part of his voice’s range is not only showcased but celebrated all in one three-minute song, Rhinestone Cowboy, It’s Only Make Believe, albeit a Conway Twitty song, Glen stole it and that’s that… Country Boy, You’ve Got Your Feet In LA, a song that has rescued my soul while tangled up in those LA freeways more often than I can count. Naw, you may have to make a whole new page just to explore Glen Campbell fully. Hahahahaha!
Please react to Glen Campbell and Tammy Wynette doing "My Elusive Dreams", also Glen Campbell on BBC "Weekend Wogan", not to be missed, Glen live with Jerry Reed epic version of "Southern Nights", thank you!
This was not a good version of the song. You will have to check out the studio version to hear what I mean. If you want to get a different flavor of Glen Campbell than what you have found so far, check out his song, Sunflower.
You can never go wrong with Glen Campbell.
Glen loved to sing & he loved playing the guitar. His love for his craft shines thru his performances. One could tell he didn’t mind at all to d so big a song 100’s of times. And was a virtuoso on that guitar.

Good Ol' Glen Campbell and good Ol' Tanya Tucker. What a pair!
He was one heckkkk of guitar as well 😊😊

Never heard this version before! I like it, but like the original better!
Great Mellow,sad song by a GREAT SINGER..THANK YOU

So much more indeed! I hope you are having a wonderful day.
Agree, thank you for the trip.

Awesome voice,awesome musician!
Glenn Campbell is the epitome of 70's County!
Oh, good! Glad you reacted. Live is more interesting, but the original album version is haunting.... Thanks.

CREW!✊
a remarkable artist... can't go wrong 💯💯🎸🎸
I have never heard it in this bit fast tempo, I like it very much, always love and love his music!!
He was so smooth! We always watched his TV show to hear what new song he was going to sing. It’s so sad when we lose someone with his talent.
Great song. Takes me back. Thanks for sharing! 😊
Glad you are getting around to this one. Definitely one of my favorites from Glen, even though he has so many good tunes .
You should check out the studio recording, you may like it better; I do.
Hi PJ, I love watching you. It would not matter what kind of music. You have CHARISMA.
Thank you!
I want to recommend Mac Davis, "Baby Don't Get Hooked on Me". It would be an excellent follow up song like "By the Time I Get to Phoenix" And you are right. Glen Campbell could SING.
Rest In Peace Glenn Campbell....His talent was amazing. His music was so much a part of my childhood especially.❤

Another great song is called "True Grit. " it's about the movie and the book by the same name.
This is another great song that GC did that was written by Oklahoma's own Jimmy Webb. Notice how the protagonist of the song ends up in Oklahoma.

Always reminds me of George Strait - I Can Still Make Cheyenne

Glen Campbell was the host and he and Waylon were friends. What he says when Waylon left the stage was priceless. Especially for 1975 on the CMA awards.
Fantastic performance of a fantastic song! Nice reaction. I am still lobbying for his live performance of 'Back Home In Indiana'.
To me the lyrics are elegant. It conveyed the end of a relationship. How the person that is leaving plays it over and over in their head. My only complaint is the guitar solo could have been a little longer. Great pick and reaction P. J.
OK then. If you wanna play some way-back, how about some Barbara Mandrell? Her matching outfits, right down to her cowboy boots, were insane. "I was Country when Country wasn't Cool"
That sounds good, its on my long list.
Jimmy Webb does an incredible version of the song he wrote Wichita Lineman. Just piano and his voice. You can check it out on TH-cam.😎👍
This is new to me. Very nice! Thanks 🤠
Looking here.
So easy on the ears.
An Outstanding Review Ty

Good one here hope you love love you
You should have listened to the studio version. This one lacks the bittersweet sound and full sound of the song. Check it out!
I have, so good.
Check out the studio cut too!
New to the channel, LOVE this!
I hope you stick around Bryan.

Thank you!
If you don't know at least the chorus to "Rhinestone Cowboy", you weren't alive in the '70s.
I was 3 in 1970
Please react to Glen Campbell and Tammy Wynette doing "My Elusive Dreams", also Glen Campbell on BBC "Weekend Wogan", not to be missed, Glen live with Jerry Reed epic version of "Southern Nights", thank you!
This is nice but, as is often the case, these types of live videos just don't sound half as good as the versions that are put out on records or CDs.
I don’t think there’s a bad Glen Campbell song.

Will do
The 2nd time is better. 1st time was to fast paced.
Thank you! This song is such a treat!
