nostalgia

Growing up in the seventies...I listened to various musicians...but the one that stuck in my mind was a country singer...Glen Campbell...now in the stages of Alzheimers disease...such a talent...a tribute to his music...

Ahh yes... the good old days! laugh

I liked some of Glen's stuff, but those that stick more in my mind were early Neil Young and early John Denver. Loved it!

My very first favourites were Cat Stevens and Donovan.

Those were glory days of balladeers, but I've been really happy to see a resurgence in recent years with the likes of Jack Johnson and others.

Thanks for the memories, Loulou dancing
Hi Lou,
My parents loved Glen Campbell..his music was quick to grow on me as a kid and through to today..
With liking a vast range of music id have to say "Wichita Linesman" is one of favourite songs..
I thought the last song he could ever record,that he wrote for his wife,"I wont forget you",shows he really is The Gentleman Of Country Music"..

Heyyy! Lou.
I remember this song! It now remind me of the song; Don't Let Your Babies Grown up! To Be Cowboy's.
By the way! I likes country music. Especially! Reba.
My favorite one by her is
" Sky Full Of Angels "...wine
Hi loulou

I love closet classics. They don't make music like that anymore. Back in the day when their pens were dipped in lightning daydream
Hello LouLouwave hug , You sure brought back a lot of memoriesyay . Years back when Glen Campbell was popular, times were better, People were happier, people greeted each other with a smile and a handshake. The air seemed cleaner, food tasted better..... I sure miss those days,

Galveston is one of my favourite Glen Campbell songs.
I particularly like the base guitar music near the end.
Thanks for posting!

LouLou :), was going to post, "Try a Little Kindness," but saw you had beat me to it. I like that one the best, I think.

Glen is one of the legends. My older brother loved him! Had some of his songs playing at his wedding party. Yes, that was long ago (my brother has since divorced) but I still remember his love of Glen Campbell's music. teddybear
