R. I. P. Glen Campbell

And let`s not forget what a great guitar player he was. A session player before making it big. And on YouTube somewhere, there`s a clip of Glen Campbell playing the `William Tell Overture`. I had to watch it twice because I was just so completely spellbound by his talent.
Alzheimer`s took him way too early.
 
81 years old is pretty long life. Back in the 70`s my father looked just like him with the mutton chops and hair style. We used to kid him about it all the time. I saw on a news story about him that he played in the Beach Boys for a short time replacing one of them that was sick.
 
I have no idea about his personal history but publicly conveyed a good image without all the sensation.
