A fan who flew into Nashville to attend Jimmy Webb's 80th Birthday Tribute to Glen Campbell kindly shared that Ashley, Shannon, and Cal Campbell opened the concert for Jimmy Webb by singing their favorite songs from the "Reunion" album! How perfect was this opening? ♥♥♥

Perhaps the family wanted to protect the privacy of the attendees?
We may see some photos from Jimmy Webb.
From a friend--
Shannon Campbell performed Jimmy Webb's "Sunshower". Now that can be one difficult song to sing, I think!

I'm surprised there has been no media coverage of Jimmy Webb's tribute concert for Glen in Nashville. But, on the Facebook page "The Art of Glen Campbell" I found this video of Ashley Campbell performing "Remembering" during that concert.

I have noticed that in some browsers the video doesn't show up. Here's the direct link:

Thanks Cowpoke. I came onto it by doing a "Jimmy Webb Nashville " search on YT.

Well Randy, I'm not so sure that that download is safe. I find it a bit suspicious. Still waiting for news coverage of Jimmy's concert last night....

[Randy]

Cowpoke , was wondering if you could check this out. In the description below the video is a download , that I didn't know if was safe or not. You would know better than me for sure. Thanks!

Review of Jimmy's "The Campbell Years" concert in Austin yesterday (May 2nd 2016)

Near the end of the night, Webb noted that he would be visiting Campbell in Nashville the next day, before a Tuesday performance that will include appearances by three of Campbell’s children. He prefaced “Postcard From Paris,” a Webb song Campbell recorded on his final album a couple of years ago, by saying that he hopes Glen is remembered as “one of the gentle souls of this world.” It was a warmly human way to conclude a program that underscored Campbell’s superhuman achievements as one of the 20th-century’s great musicians.
