Hi Cowpoke, I forgot to mention that the stage setup was the same. I did notice however this stage format was used by other artists during the same period.

Hi Cowpoke,
This is a strange one, because I always thought the same. But while going through my stuff the other day I found a DVD in a plastic wallet which stated Glen Campbell show 1973. This was sent to me by a fan a while ago. I had watched it at the time but had forgotten that this was the show from which the clip was taken.
The show was called "An Evening with Glen Campbell". Glen, starts with his opening song as on the Live at New Jersey concert "More/There's a place for us" eventually he walks from the platform to the steps and starts to sing Phoenix.
Near the end of the show he explains that they will be coming back later in the year to do a series of shows. The music show was in 1975 and you can see Glen has slightly longer hair which is not as pristine as the 1973 show.

Really I have zero problems with what she said. I may disagree with what she said about taking him to Arkansas but her heart seems in the right place. I agree one of the best if not the best ever and that's strong!!

Okay, I watched the Tanya Tucker interview. At first I said it was touching to see she still loved Glen. Now I think it's rather sad. It almost seems she is idealizing her time with Glen. Still, as an artist, I think she is one of if not THE best female country singers around. I hope she will release new music soon. Her last album is from 2009!

Thanks Mike! What a beautiful rendition of Phoenix that is. Like Randy says, it's perfection. So that clip is from Glen's first BBC special from 1973? The set looks a little like the one they used for the 1975 series. But Glen does look a little younger here.

Hi Cowpoke,
Yes, "The Kings of Country" is new but they use the Phoenix clip of Glen, from his 1973 An Evening with Glen Campbell BBC special. Its the same clip they used in the "Joy of easy listening programme. The clip is on YT.
I have posted it on the Glen on YT thread.

Blog by a make up artist about Glen and his family...

"Very few clients really get the nuance of what I do as a makeup artist. Fewer yet are so clearly present in the moment as the interaction between subject and artist unfolds in preparation for presenting people in their best light. With Glen Campbell and company, my heart and mind was touched by their courage and use of humor to enjoy life as they know it. The concert performed by Glen and his children left me clapping, stomping and crying. "

Tanya Tucker gets candid: Glen Campbell heartbreak and hopes for her legacy

[Cowpoke]

Yes Mike, I noticed that too. I never knew that Glen did that first on a Nancy Sinatra record! I wonder if anyone knows how to play the parts where Glen plays solo guitar, in reverse so that we can hear what Glen actually played? Thanks for posting that First Edition song. I love it!
