Glen Campbell's vocals, guitar playing and talent capture the hearts of millions worldwide!
In 1968 I was in the Marines and Eli was actually sitting on my bucket cleaning my rifle when I heard Glenn Campbell singing Galveston. I had a girlfriend in Pomona California that I was engaged to. I was truly afraid of dying before I would see her again. That song hit me hard because it was talking about me I felt. I was seriously wounded but survived. The Marines gave me an “early out” and I got to come home. Three days later I married my sweetheart. We have been married for over 59 years and every time I hear that song I cry real tears.
I was there 1 year later. Beau ceau dinke dau you old jarhead us. Hoo Rah !! this 0311 remembers.
So grateful you are with us and that your heart was touched by Glen the angel...
God bless you Marine. Thank you for sharing this and thank you for your service!
Semper Fi
You are the man!!!! Good for you
My heart aches watching and listening to Ashley; every word, every facial expression, every tone oozes love for the man, the artist we all loved so much. We love you, Ashley.
I saw him in Newcastle United Kingdom for his farewell tour I was so blessed to see him he was superb I could not believe he was right in front of me there will never be the likes of Glen again a complete one off RIP Legend ❤
It’s so nice to see Ashley look after her father and watch him with such admiration. We will always have Glen’s music in our lives.
She looks just like him
Legend! a word often used too freely but in this instance it dose not say enough. God bless and thank you for the sharing of your talent and the transparency right to the very end.
He was a once in a lifetime talent! Seems like yesterday when I saw him in True Grit. May God Bless his family. RIP Glen Campbell.
The Amazing Glen Campbell -- awesome Songwriter, Singer, Ace Guitar player, Performer & Composer.His music lives on in our hearts.❤❤❤ His Daughter Ashley & Sons carry on his Legacy. The Magic of The Rhinestone Cowboy riding into the Sunset🌞R.I.P Mr.Glen Campbell, Thank you for all the joy you bring to the World!
Always liked Glenn, but, since he passed, have been watching everything on him on u-tube, and really found out, what a fabulous, talented, gifted wonderful human being he was. He was so humble and straight forward, he was himself, all the time, no put ons. Seen him and Tanya on magazines, when they were doing their thing. I really liked them together. Love both of their voices, But his wife is a wonderful person also. And his children, God Bless them all, what a loss for family, and all his many fans.. We miss you Glen Campbell. God has a class act. Good for him. Glad he changed, we know we will see him one day.
God bless his daughter Ashley. So mature for her age, so loving.
She looks like the mother.
Don't forget about Debby Campbell too. She's cashing in now too on his music.
Such respect for this family bringing awareness to Alzheimer's disease. A beautiful example of family love! RIP
I agree emphatically! People are living longer today than ever before and with aging, body parts, organs, even brain, start to show wear and tear over time. Alzheimer's is something I detest with a passion, because it so cruelly robs a person of their mental faculties through no fault of their own, it's plaque that builds up in the brain over time. We just lost Tony Bennett to the disease a few days ago, and like Glen, he could still remember song lyrics when he couldn't tell you what day it was or where he performed last night.
Music, is so important and I can't help but think another part of the brain holds in the music and lets it show forth longer than any other physical trait a person has. Glen lived to age 81, Tony lived almost to age 97, so it affects people differently and perhaps affects the brain slower in some people than others. Glen will have been gone from us six years in a little over a week from now, but he lives on in his music and will a long time more, as will Tony Bennett's music also. Frank Sinatra lived to 82, has been gone nearly 25 years now, and his music is also still going strong! Good music is never forgotten; people always like hearing old songs!
I saw him at FOX theater in Tucson, Az. on his farewell tour and his children's care love was awesome to witness! When he would get "side tracked", they would put him in the right direction.... by the way, a wonderful concert!
I have such wonderful memories of Glen Campbell, having listened to his music in my house, when my Dad played it. I lost my Dad recently, he had Parkinson’s. Covid got Dad unfortunately. However, I will always remember Dad, and Wichita Lineman. Thank you both.. God bless you both ! 🙏😊👍👍
So sad he gone but he doesn't have to suffer anymore. A great musician, great singer, great songs, he never truly got he recognition he deserved but what an amazing guy. So glad I got to see him three times on his Goodbye Tour in 2012, Branson, MO, Springfield, MO, and Kansas City, MO. WOW, what a talent! Rest in Peace Glen, condolences to the family. You will be sadly missed. Been a fan since 1969 when I heard Galveston. Gone before his time.
I was there it was an awesome experience great guitar player great singer... o god I miss that kind of music but one thing is for sure I will always remember that.
It's hard to fight back a few tears watching this video... What a great, talented man.
I actually cried when I first learned of his condition. I loved his music!!! 🎉
one of the sad realties of life: as we age, some of us become shadows of what we once were. it saddens me to think of it but it's just the truth. for all of us, i hope we will be able to age gracefully and to die with dignity.
Fine sense of humor in the midst of an Alzheimer's-induced mistake -- "I ain't taught 'em how to follow me yet." You will be missed, Mr. Campbell.
Yes, he always had a joke to share with people. In all his TV appearances too. Privately, Alice Cooper says he was the same way.
Richard...yes, indeed...and such a timely, sweet response by Ashley as well...
Such a sad loss to the music industry, a very talented song writer and a talented musician. I have bought several of his records here in the UK since his very first release Rhinestone Cowboy and really love his music. Rest in peace Glen.
Saw him in Galveston Tx and he brought the house down! One of the greatest guitarists ever. Im glad they mentioned his days with the Wrecking Crew. Many people were unaware of those early days and the work he had done on so many albums for so many artists and really never getting credit for them. He will be missed...RIP Glen.
The guy had to do something right for his kids to love him so much. We're all human.
My thoughts as well And theyr'e talented too; it could have all been so different
Was he doing cocaine and alcohol when they were kids?
he will be sadly mussed but his music lives on
🕯Rest in peace no other like Glen Campbell we miss you.God bless you always and family.
Ashley, Thanks you so much for being so kind to your father. He will always hold a special place in my heart. It is so beautiful to see the love for your Dad. My peace and love always find you "Glen"s little girl. Your father has given much sadness, love and joy to so many. Our love for him will live forever. Thanks again Ms. Cambell for helping your Dad through his final tour.
What a gift Glen Campbell has been in my life. Any music lover can immediately identify his talent. Thank You Glen, Rest in Peace.
Glen Campbell - a remarkable talent, singer, composer and guitarist! Daily we miss him & his music! His music lives in the hearts of millions- worldwide!
R.I.P Glen Campbell. you will be a big miss but your music will forever live on.
Such beautiful kids and family. God bless the Campbell's
Glen Campbell shared his tremendous talent with the world, he will always be loved and remembered. Thank you Glen. The Rhinestone Cowboy will always ride Gentle on my Mind,
Ok, he stumbled now and then, but how sharp in yout craft do you have to be to pull this off at all! Glen thank you, I will never forget your songs coming over WTLB AM radio in Utica new york, RIP
Great musician and singer. He will be missed. RIP Glen.
My Goodness! Even with the onslaught of Alzheimer's...he was still brilliant on "Wichita Lineman!'
How many songs did he perform on? 1000s! I love looking at Greatest Guitar Players and he seldom on them. Outrageous!!! I miss him, I feel a loss even though we have him on CDs, records etc. RIP. God bless
Glen was the best performer ever Best guitarist ever
I feel so lucky to have grown up in the 70's. It wasn't until about 10 years ago that I learned of Glen and Jimmy's relationship of Jimmy writing huge hits and Glen with the perfect voice to sing them. What a great duo they made.
I was fortunate enough, to see this legend in 2012. It was bitter-sweet, hearing the classics & knowing of what lay ahead for him. I trust that he rests in peace & knows how much he was/is loved & missed. These legends have layed a foundation for the newer artists to build on. Thank you for sharing your gift, talent & life with us.
Love you Kim, You Took such good care of him
Have been a fan of Glen Campbell since his summer hosting during the Smothers Bros. hiatus. Enjoyed his singing, guitar playing n charismatic presents over the years. Was able to see his concert performance during 2012 in Hawaii !
Aloha from Hawaii, Glen Campbell.
Thanks for all the memories.
"Riding into the sunset"MAKE MYSELF GET GOOSE BUMPS AND UPSET
I never really thought much about Mr Campbell until about twenty years ago, when a friend of mine asked me to go to a concert he was playing in Dublin, Ireland,...and my God after ten minutes I realized I was in the presence of a superstar.....his passing weakens the link even more with the greatest generation of performers, Rest in peace Mr Campbell.
Top 10 guitarists of all time

He always brings me to tears.
Glen Campbell and his music made my life better. I won't go into exactly how that is, but it is deep.
Reading other's comments here I know that I am not alone. While he is gone from us now, his life and work is still spreading joy and uplifting fans and will continue to do so.
Glen, may you receive as many happy moments in your eternal peace as you have given on this Earth.
One of the most talented man ever. We will dearly miss you. God Bless you & thank you. ♥
I AGREE HOT
We could not have said it better , hottiemplsmn .
A Blessed Man . May he rest in peace and be with our heavenly father Amen 🙏
Find Jesus, and you will see him again ...
I had SUCH a crush on him as a little girl. Always had good taste in men.
His memories live on in everyone of our memories. He was one of the premier guitarists and greatest performers of our time. His memory lives on forever!
My son loved GC music when he was 13 yrs & said Glenn had perfect pitch...I bought my son LP of GC for Xmas.
His music is pure magic!
Good man and what a great guitar player. I sure miss him, may he Rest In Peace 🙏
The bloke was a legend in my lifetime there won’t be another
Great great humble superbly talented Musical man ..
You earned the accolades Glen
One of the absolute best
Loved that guy, Rest in Peace Glen.
He's not gone his music lives forever When your backed up by a full orchestra It lasts for eternity
I listen to *Glen Campbell* everyday! Back in 1969, I was 14 years old. My brother brought home Glen's new album " *GALVESTON* " I fell in love with his songs!
Then I watched his show every Sunday Night! Then I believe it was moved to the middle of the week.. I wanted to be on his show and sing with him!
He was such a beautiful, well mannered man who could sing and play that Guitar! So, I taught myself guitar, but by the time I was half way decent
on Guitar, Glens shows was gone. Never got to meet him. Wish I had. Back then my favorite group was The Beatles. Glen was next!
Beyond a shadow of a doubt, Glen is up in Heaven doing what he loves to do the most! God, thank you for giving us Glen, we will see him later AMEN! ✝⛪💗🤗🎸
Yes we thank you lord God for Glen's life, and talent.
RIP my friend you made your mark in this world.
What a great tribute. Thank you for putting this together.
God bless,family,and friends,a gentleman
genius musician and all around great human being. the whole world loves you and misses you Mr Campbell.
My heart broke for his family to have to see him go like this .. Such a great artist his music is his legacy to the world. Thank you Sir.... R.I.P
Thank you Glen for all the music and memories. RIP. God Bless.
What a talent. Watching with sadness and happiness… The world is better that you were in it. You brought the world so much. Rest well with your Lord and savior Jesus Christ…
The best guitar player✔️..just love him, a legend in music.
You will be missed, God bless you Glen
I saw him perform at the Palomino Club in North Hollywood back sometimes around the time he had his TV show. That performance made a believer of me.
With the mourning of a loss, also comes some relief for him and his family. They say a vaccine is coming for this dreaded disease. Let us hope.
Glen' s songs were the best ones and memories for us, the fans of so called "the Western pop songs", in Taiwan, for decades, might be for a century.
One of the greats. RIP😪
The best guitarist by a country mile xx
R.I.P. Thanks so much for the music Glen.
A true legend.... Rip Glen.
Such a wonderful family behind him. Truly a lucky man. Thank you for many years of amazing music!
Miss you Glen ! Hello type in "ron howard cover" listen to Opie sing "The Dance"! To all of us who have lost loved ones "Life goes that fast, and we will see them again that soon"!
Popular and ever remembered the Rhinestone Cowboy
Visited my daughter in Houston and took a day vacation trip to Galveston. Thought of Glen the whole time. I love him.
It takes such a man to be as strong and great as he was to let the public see him be vulnerable and honest about his illness,....I have so much respect and admiration for the Rhinestone Cowboy,...bless your soul Mr Campbell,..I'll never forget you !!!
I agree, what a guy & how lovely his family went with him on the last tour..
one of a kind. so talented. RIP Glen
Timeless artist!
One of the best
How can you not love him❤
How can there be such a horrible disease that takes a talent like Glen so ruthlessly and completely? Alzymers is so god awful.
What a great video.
RIP, Glen Campbell
I've been listening to Glen Campbell since I was a kid, and got to see him in concert twice. He was just an amazing, talented man. I will miss him dearly! Rest in Peace Glen!
I saw Glen Campbell in Missouri back in June of 2006. Andy Williams was there, too. It's was at the Andy Williams theater. Both of them put on a 45 minute show which was awesome.
I can assure you, cause I made a couple of his goodbye tour shows that if they made a love meter it would have been pegged out. A few hiccups maybe, but everytime there was one, the meter pegged even harder. Lots of standing ovations assured not only was the family behind him with love, the audience was too.
The best…..we all miss you Glen
Goodby Glen R.I.P
Ashley you are so cool xx
God I am in tears.
Very few guitarists can make a guitar talk. But he could. Some footage of interviews in his prime show him having a razor sharp mind and fast responses - the same skills he showed in his playing. One of the best players to strap on a guitar - quite possibly the best ever. Sorely missed...
Loved his music: Rhinestone Cowboy, By The Time I Get To Phoenix, Witcha Lineman, Galveston, etc. We will miss you Glen!!
What a talent. I will never forget this man and his songs
"Seems to me like he had all his marbles."

Miss you Glen!
galveston was so great that glen wanted to play it again she should have let him, there may have been an additional verse but hey we may never know
His memory left him...
@@lindyfrank5342 ....his soul never did.
Legend
Fantabulous Glen Campbell
Forever a legend. RIP Glenn.
This tour was the last time I saw Glenn and he gave my boyfriend his Washburn guitar with his autograph. WE were very sad with his death...
