Glen Campbell Forums

I have this PBS Special stored on my DVR, it is nice to learn it was recorded at the Andy Williams Theater, I watch it all the time, whenever Campbell is on stage and the camera cuts to the audience, everyone is looking up at their icon and mouthing the words.

It is nice to have a girl's chorus serve as back up, especially Southern Nights.

I love the way the camera dolly sweeps over the audience, breathtaking.

The lighting, color and sound is beautiful.

There is a possibility this show is for sale, through their main store's 1 800 Number, I will have to give them a call and inquire.

Those are great performances Dee! I remember Randy and me searching high and low to find out when and where these performances were recorded. Glen's performance of Wichita Lineman is Randy's favorite, right Randy?

The performances were released on a DVD in 2007 called "Legends of Country: Classic Hits of 50s, 60s and 70s".

Great to hear these are broadcasted again. Thank you for keeping us up to date. You're doing a tremendous job.

This is truly a fantastic program!
It was filmed at the Andy Williams Theater in Branson, MO, copyrighted 2006! Therefore, Glen's performances are pre-Meet Glen Campbell. Very rare, I think.
Last broadcasted on PBS in 2011 prior to this weekend and next week.
I hope all of you in the U.S. were able or will be able to catch this program.
Hopefully, we will see some of Glen's performances on this program on YouTube.
He received a standing ovation for performing "Rhinestone Cowboy".
His guitar solo on "Galveston" is one of the best that I can remember--Glen just plays on and on, seemingly lost in a spiritual mindset of creativity and self-expression. He doesn't appear to be aware that he is onstage; it's just "Me and My Guitar".
Truly a guitar legend.
