Description
A welcome re-promotion for this popular DVD title, which has been unavailable for some time. Glen Campbell’s popularity remains as strong as ever across the world. Glen Campbell - A one-time member of the Beach Boys, session guitarist for the likes Elvis and Frank Sinatra, a pioneer of New Country, and a harmony singer who could put anyone in tune. Add to that a phenomenal run of US pop and country hit records. Campbell was a regular visitor to the UK in the 1970’s - through 1975 Campbell recorded a series of six TV shows broadcast by the BBC . Backed by his then regular band and the BBC Concert Orchestra Campbell performed live his greatest hits plus other favourite songs of his choosing. The performances are consummately professional, the backing very tight, and the sound recording excellent. We have compiled the best of these performances, which include his best known hits, other interesting covers such as lesser known Jimmy Webb songs, and some fine examples of his own guitar playing (including a fantastic jazzy instrumental version of Bill Withers Ain’t No Sunshine). The bonus features are of Campbell and Jimmy Webb performing together, and the highlights of a live show from 1978 that brings in his two big late 70’s hits and an example of how great a live performer he was, and still is.
