Glenn Campbell - Try a little kindness

[Quixote1818]

This song always reminds me of the people on DU. I have always thought it would be a good song for the Dem. convention.

1. That is perfect.

I don't know what you would have to do to get this for the convention. Whatever, it is it should be done.

2. Great

Good song for human beings, people are so rude and introspective these days.

4. You are right, I just looked it up and he performed at the Republican convention in 1980 nt

5. How funny you posted this. Was always a favorite, and I even have it in my

Youtube. Poor Glen has Alzheimer's now I read recently.

6. Because of his brilliant musical career

I have to forgive GC his conservative leanings. Have been a fan since I was 6 years old and heard "Galveston" on the radio.

I was privileged to see him perform earlier this year on his "Goodbye" tour. He was absolutely brilliant. Yes, he needed a teleprompter for some lyrics, but he has lost no music in his hands. His guitar playing was superb. I enthusiastically suggest a listen to some of his early instrumental works, specifically The Astounding 12-String Guitar of Glen Campbell and The Big Bad Rock Guitar of Glenn Campbell.

He was also a member of the Wrecking Crew--hired guns who made a lot of artists sound a lot better musically than they might have been at the time!
