Concert Recorded at The Festival Hall, London. 1977.
Despite the breathtaking scope of his career - ace guitarist, in-demand session player, onetime Beach Boy, TV star, duettist, country icon - Glen Campbell's defining role is as explorer and interpreter. Since his raw beginnings as an 18-year-old in his uncle's Dick Bills Band in 1954, the Arkansas traveller has tapped into the rich veins of American music like no other. Captured at his peak in 1977, this remarkable live performance from London's Royal Festival Hall finds him in esteemed company, backed by his own crack band and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
Amongst the classics delivered are "Rhinestone Cowboy" and "Southern Nights" (both US #1 singles), an astonishing Beach Boys medley - gleaned from his time as Brian Wilson's tour replacement in 1965 - and worldwide smashes "By The Time I Get To Phoenix", "Wichita Lineman" and "Galveston". As an added treat, Jimmy Webb (the author of those three songs) joins Campbell on stage to conduct the orchestra. What follows is pure honeyed bliss...
