Glen campbell album review Many of the songs on it are my favorites,Witchita Lineman,Fate of man is a beutiful song as is Dreams of the everyday house wife. This is one of the best albums Glen Campbell ever made. A great album all the way around.
I think it's G. C.'s best.
Then I traded it for a Sonny and Cher album. I had this "album" many many years ago. Yes, Sonny and Cher.
So I decided I wanted to hear those great old songs again. I do think this has to be his very best album, although, I have never purchased any other. But most of my favorite tunes of Glen Campbell's, except for Galveston, are on this CD. .
High hopes left on the platform.
This album, however, makes my stomach turn with its dreadful string arrangements. I wanted to like Wichita Lineman--both because the digital version is inexpensive and because it recreates the original album's track listing. The flavor of country is way watered down, and the album is plagued with just about every cheesy attribute of late 60's/early 70's pop music. .
Great song
The song "Ann" is great. . if your name happens to be Ann. Very funny. Every Ann should have this song.
Memories, memories, memories...
I listened to this on LP when I was a kid. . I knew all the words and learned to sing "high" by singing with Glen. He is still just an awesome performer, and it's so good to know that this is here for us "old folks" to buy and share with our children to show them what REAL music is!.
