Check Out This Link - Glen Campbell News on the Web

[Elusive Butterfly]

You bet I enjoyed every minute of it, Randy. Thanks a million for sending me that link. You know, I live in Denmark. And we've not so familiar with the "real" country music, until in the recent years. Now it's grown to be very popular. I can say the same for myself. When I joined my "first" Glen Campbell groups on Facebook, a couple of years ago, a whole new world opened itself to me. And country was a huge part of that. So I went on youtube to listen to all the brilliant country music there is to explore. Naturally we've had Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Roger Miller, Buck Owens and so many more, on our national radio, during the past 40 decades. Still, I had a lot to learn about it. Today I'm totally into American country music, as well as many of our Danish artists have tried to make it with the country sound and with a great deal of success. It seems to me, that Country music has been "sleeping" for a great number of years. But it has come alive again, much to my pleasure. Country songs in the 50's and 60's seemed to have so much more to tell. As Glen Campbell always said "It has to tell a story". Same thing with the country genre. The songs need to take you "somewhere". Let you into a true story about something important to us all. I truly enjoyed the whole video , Randy. Thanks again. Elusive Butterfly.

Elusive Butterfly, you are most welcome. I agree, it does speak volumes of his character to sing for that man in the hospital. The other link is the part of the Ralph Emery show (Nashville Now) where Gary Puckett and Jim Glaser both sing together on Woman Woman.... If you watch the whole clip , yes Gary Puckett does sing snippets of Young Girl, Lady Willpower, and Over You also. I'm a fan of Gary Puckett also, but I also like Jim Glaser very well too. The muppet you are referring to , I think is Shotgun Red a prop Ralph used on his show.

Here's a clip I love that Glen did as a salute to Ralph Emery...Hope u enjoy

Thank you so much Randy, for posting the links, to the YT-clip where Gary Puckett sings Woman Woman, for the sick man in the hospital. Says a great deal about his noble charater. And then the other link with him singing "Young Girl" on this......show? Was it some kind of Muppet Show? Anyway. Young Girl was the first song I ever heard Gary Puckett sing, back in the late 60's/early 70's, when I was 14 years old. I couldn't get enough of that song and his tremendous voice. Thanks again. Loved it. Elusive Butterfly

Maybe arlw can confirm for us that Glen was actually on that session.
Didn't Glen want to record Woman, Woman?
Randy, if you find that vid, maybe you can post it. Gary Puckett missed my radar when this song was a hit.

[Randy]

I'm a big fan of both Gary Puckett's version and also Jim Glaser's who co-wrote the song. I didn't know about Jerry Fuller , and also Glen playing on the record for them though. Nice link

Also, There is a video on YT where Mr. Puckett drove 4hrs to play that song for a big fan of his that was very sick. Very touching....

I did hear about it before but thanks for posting that one, I love it. I have been planning to find software that can play mp3s backwards so we can hear what Glen actually played!

[Randy]

Hard to stump Cowpoke but I'll try. Did you know Glen played lead guitar on this one?




"Producer Mike Post reversed a few riffs to create the intro, and the solo played by Glen Campbell was heavily compressed and used a tremolo effect to achieve its sound."
