Glen was an absolute titan of a musician. He usually hybrid picked this with pick and fingers and capod at the third fret, which is not easy when singing. Looks like he decided to ditch the capo and the pick for this rendition and play crazy bar chords and pure fingerstyle... without missing a beat and while leading an orchestra! An incredibly gifted musician.
What is amazing is ypu heard him more than you realize. When he wasn't perfoming on his own, he was part of the biggest studio backup groups at the time. Any kind of music, country, rock, whatever.
Such a treasure. I don’t think people realize how very talented he was. Extraordinary guitarist and singer. A cross over artist-could perform jazz, blues, country, pop, gospel. Limitless talent. RIP Glen-best talent of the generation
Glen did it first, and the idiot suits at Capital Records didn't promote it. It's not like he made millions of dollars for that label over the years 🙄 Glen left Capital Records after that. Johnny, Willie, Waylon, and Chris heard the song and decided to name their supergroup after it and release that hit single. And the rest is history.
Wow...I would give just about anything to go back and be in that audience watching and listening to one of the greatest singers in the world. Thanks Glen....you will always be that passionate strong voice that helped guide my generation through difficult times.
Glen Campbell is one of America's greatest treasures - he is so talented and can do anything on stage. He is humble, loves the fans and is so gracious to all of us. I have always thought that Glen still doesn't know how great he really is. I have most of his albums - and they have been played many, many times. Sad to see Glen the way he is right now - but when God calls him Home to Heaven - God will have a great musician-singer to add to the Heavenly Orchestra. Roger C. a fan since 1961. Glen has always said - he plays at his best when he has a full orchestra backing him :)
There is a more recent version (2001)of him playing this with an orchestra that is very good. The guitar is awesome. Glen was my favorite artist in the early 70’s. Then I went off into hard rocking stuff. It was the 70’s after all. Now I’ve come full circle and I back with Glen. So wish I could have seen him live. We shouldn’t let ourselves get keyholes in a certain kind of music. Ya miss a lot of great stuff.
The easier it appears, the greater the talent. Glen is a genius. And, NO-ONE sings Webb like Campbell. Highwayman is easily in Glen's 10 greatest songs for me. Desperately melancholy & undeservedly obscure. This version is fabulous. I wonder if this exists on DVD? Thanks for posting this essential gem.
I think this is the best we can hope for. Maybe I will start an online petition to try to get it remastered & released. With Glen's sad, well-publicised illness I think there will increased interest. www.ioffer.com/i/glen-campbell-on-boston-pops-1978-489983852
Martin, I've said the same thing for years; "The great one's always make it look 'easy'". As a 'hack' guitarist (for 40+ years) I can tell you personally that much of the 'easy' stuff that Glen does with his guitar is incredibly difficult to perform, and to be able to pull it off with such 'ease' in a public setting is even more amazing. Glen's vocal range (and his ability to emote) are also stunning. As one who watched G.C.'s 'Goodtime Hour' as a kid in High School, it is with much sadness and bittersweet pleasure that I listen to many of his performances here on RUclips, knowing that he is in the final chapter of his (earthly) life. "Thanks" beyond words for what you've left us Mr. Campbell......
The whole world loves Glen and hes not gone..but he has pointed us in the right direction..question is will we ?..courage is spelled Nancy and now Glen ...
RIP GLEN. This is my favorite Glen/Jimmy Webb collaboration. Many ( Most ?) casual listeners don't know this song is about reincarnation and each of the men Glen sings about is the same man as he goes thru different lives and periods in history.
It's so hard to watch this, this incredibly talented musician in his prime, after watching the documentary of his battle with Alzheimer's. It's not actually his battle, it's his family's battle. I know that because my mom had it. It is pure torture to watch a person decline like that. Those who have it wake up to a new day, new friends, people they recognize but can't name. If anyone is interested, it's currently on Netflix, titled "I'll be me". The lyrics to his final recording "I'm not gonna miss you" are so hard to listen to and for some reason, even harder to read. Hopefully before my own kids are senior citizens, there will be a cure.
I just want to thank you for sharing these clips of Glen and the Boston Pops. Until I watched and listened to these performances of first MacArthur Park and now Highwayman, I don't think I realized how much Webb's music speaks to me, nor how much I appreciate Glen Campbell's talent. I'd forgotten this song until Glen started singing it. Does anyone else find this performance, especially the lyrics, tug at their heart now that we know what Glen has been facing at this stage of his life? And Webb's melodies that are so haunting and maybe the Pops with their orchestration remind me of my early childhood, what was playing in the background on radio in the late '60s and early '70s, how this kind of sound remains a strong echo of what was now long ago. My dad pointed out when I was a kid how much he liked Galveston and Witchita Lineman, and now, watching these PBS clips, I realize Jimmy Webb's tunes and Glen's interpretation combined on these other songs reach deep into the soul, magnified when I actually listen to those lyrics.
What an incredible song performed by an incredible singer...it is a shame that the song is not as well known as Jimmy Webb's other creations. The lyrics are truly deep and Glen does them justice. Thank you for posting this for us.
I actually remember watching this I think on PBS. Back when we only had 13 channels! Lol! Still love GC today, think he is the greatest artist all time in my book! and yes, He recorded this on the Highwayman album back in 1979, which also featured his tribute song to his good friend Elvis Pressley titled Hound Dog Man! i like the Cash/Nelson/Kristofferson/Jennings version, But my favorite is Glen Campbell's version. It was written by Glens favorite writer Jimmy Webb who wrote so many GC tunes!
This song is just one of few that actually makes me feel something. Also, this version definitely has a better ending then the highwaymen version, with the orchestra backing it up and all.
I began listening to Glen when I was 16....loved him then...love him now...probably even more since my life's experiences render the lyrics even more meaningful.
One of the most underrated guitarists ever, an original Wrecking Crew member, Glen Campbell made hits for many people before he made his own with Jimmy Webb. This is splendid and arguably the best version performed. I know it is my favorite rendition...
What a supreme talent he had, just mind-blowing how he interpreted a song. And this song is all the more poignant and profound now that Glen has passed. Perhaps he's still around and around....
Thank you for adding this performance by Glen! The more I hear of him, the more I realize I didn’t really know him and his unlimited talents. Just amazing, Glen sings with the Angels now; without any doubts.
Saw Jimmy Webb on a show that Bobby Bare had on The Nashville Network years ago and he said this song came to him in a dream. My favorite version is the one Glen did live with the South Dakota Symphony. It used to be on here but I guess it got taken down.
That's also Carl Jackson playing guitar behind him... Carl was on Glen's Goodtime Hour....and also played banjo...He's been doing bluegrass for years, now. Lives in Nashville, I believe...
Thank you so much for all of the old videos you put up. It's too bad that they aren't so clear after so many years, but I don't care, I've listened to plenty of vinyl when I was a teen, it didn't matter how gray those albums got. I still have them. Even VHS tapes aren't clear compared to dvd's. Imagine some day in the future when they can clean up the old videos and have more generations appreciate the epic music we had, those of us who did our growing up from the late 60's into the 90's. After that, it's hard to find a lot of music that truly qualifies as music.
Survivrs, thanks for your nice comment. a good deal of footage taped on VHS in the early days was taped off local channels, many people didn't have cable and the reception was over antennas, this puts you at a handicap to begin with as you are at the mercy of reception issues when taped. Add that with the less the perfect technology of VHS with tracking issues, loss of quality over the years etc. and your left with what you see 30-40 years later. Many shows, like this one, have never been re-released, and there's no word they ever will be to see a really high def version with great sound clarity.
Friends of Glen, yes I was sure someone had the right equipment to record these videos from the 70's or before. I remember using a tape recorder just to record a tv show-just the audio. I appreciate ALL of the videos you have put up here. I don't care about the quality, it is just so nice that we have what we do. I grew up with an antenna, rabbit ears with aluminum foil, moving the rabbit ears for better reception of black and white shows on 3 channels. It was in the 70's before we had a color tv, still had the antenna, etc. Anyway, thank you!!
@sarahjeanbeans Wow. Correction. I had no clue. I just looked and found that he performed in place of Kris. I am glad I came across your comment. I may have never come across those recordings. Thanks!
@Rowlandph I don't remember about the Goodtime Hour but Glen had syndicated music show in the 80's and Carl was on it. The 80's show was strickly music and a really good show. Which it was available somewhere.
WoWW! Fantastic..............I didn't know he did this before...interesting version ..no capo here. I often wonder why Glen used a capo.. including on later versions of this such was and IS his dexterity on the fretboard. I NEED mine badly, he,he..
Wow! Thanks so much for posting this video! I remember when he sang this on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. I believe it was a dispute over Capitol Records not wanting to release this song as a single that cause him to leave to another label.
Thanks NorwoodGlen for sharing this incredibly powerful song. I've been unsuccessful in obtaining a video (or album or CD) or even a list of all the songs performed at this event. Any help much appreciated.
@Rowlandph Carl joined Glen after The Goodtime Hour ended (he replaced Larry McNeely), but Jackson was Glen's longest running banjo player. From 1973 to 1985, then Carl left to do his own thing.
This is a very pleasant song. Would it have been nice if Glen followed with "Wichita Lineman" (as in a song medley) ? "Wichita ..." I believe was a personal favorite of Glen's.
@NorwoodGlen Actually, I think Carl replaced Larry while the goodtime hour was still on...during it's last year...I remember seeing him on TV with Glen..so can't completely be sure....But you're right, he stayed with him... I also knew Carl for a while after the show had ended. Met him at the old Palomino Club in North Hollywood (now gone). Went by his apartment one night and played his ovation... He looked like he did in that special, then...
@sbbinahee Players will often used a capo just to get closer to the sound they actually want. As an example, say they are playing in E, they may want to use the capo and actually play in C or D so they can get more drones and open ringing. It's not always just to make it easier to play. Guys that good can think about things like that; guys like me just think about trying to play it. lol
@sarahjeanbeans me too. never realised his input into popular music and culture. he really has been around and a great talent. gonna see him here in a coupla months and i am very excited. not sure about the kk ass kickin thing though....but we'll agree to disagree!!
Glen was an absolute titan of a musician. He usually hybrid picked this with pick and fingers and capod at the third fret, which is not easy when singing. Looks like he decided to ditch the capo and the pick for this rendition and play crazy bar chords and pure fingerstyle... without missing a beat and while leading an orchestra! An incredibly gifted musician.
What is amazing is ypu heard him more than you realize. When he wasn't perfoming on his own, he was part of the biggest studio backup groups at the time. Any kind of music, country, rock, whatever.
Such a treasure. I don’t think people realize how very talented he was. Extraordinary guitarist and singer. A cross over artist-could perform jazz, blues, country, pop, gospel. Limitless talent. RIP Glen-best talent of the generation
Oh I think most of us knew how good he was.
What a masterpiece. RIP Glen Campbell. Its a shame a better recorded version doesn't exist, but thank god we have this
This is, by far, the greatest and most epic version of this song. Amazing find!
His solo acoustic version is good, as well as his Sioux Falls performance with symphony
@@Danimal1577 Also on Johnny Carson.
loved the Highwaymen version of this. Never realised that Jimmy Webb wrote it, Certainly never knew Glen Campbell had done a version, and done it well
Glen did it first, and the idiot suits at Capital Records didn't promote it. It's not like he made millions of dollars for that label over the years 🙄 Glen left Capital Records after that. Johnny, Willie, Waylon, and Chris heard the song and decided to name their supergroup after it and release that hit single. And the rest is history.
@Artur Belo Correct. It was in Jimmy's 1977 album El Mirage.
@@Danimal1577 Glen introduced it to the Highwaymen. There was no angst. Song came to Mr. Webb in a vivid dream. Adonai
@@macbeavers6938 Actually Marty Stuart brought the song to Johnny Cash and the rest of the guys. He talks about it in a video on his channel.
@@weirdalfyankovik9422 Could be Al. Whoever did it, I am very happy. Great song. Thanks for the note Al. Mac
I imagine it is those fine musicians on the Boston Pops who are honored to have shared the stage with such a marvelous musician/vocalist.
Legend. Powerful song. That voice.
You’ve got to be among the most elite, to lead perform with the Boston Pops.
Wow...I would give just about anything to go back and be in that audience watching and listening to one of the greatest singers in the world. Thanks Glen....you will always be that passionate strong voice that helped guide my generation through difficult times.
I have pure love for this amazing man.......talent beyond words!! ❤️
I agree!
This is sheer magic, pure poetry ... both the words and the arrangement. I've never heard anything like this before! Thank you so much for posting it!

Hi from Australia. You are so right. He is simply mesmerising. Susan
Absolutely right!
the best musician on the planet , i am a huge fan

Great words, Brad. Totally agree. It's time to give thanks to the generation of wonderful talent that is sadly slipping away. Take care
so true
We need to find a better quality version of this stat!
just put the same thing. much needed!
The whole world loves Glen and hes not gone..but he has pointed us in the right direction..question is will we ?..courage is spelled Nancy and now Glen ...
I'm so glad l couldn't figure out Willie was saying "baubles". The lyric search eventually brought me here. Amazing version... Simply amazing.
What I love about songs like this, is, It's a great movie playing in your own mind, with a cast that you have chosen. Glen is just so great.
Spot on my friend.... Spot on 😉
Jimmy Webb's songwriting
This concert was filmed the same year i was born...
my hero glen campbell
It's still a great performance by Glen, albeit a bad quality video. And thanks for giving Jimmy credit for writing the song.
This is the original and best version of this song. (Plus Arthur Fiedler and the Pops!)
His solo acoustic performance is great, as well as his Sioux Falls concert with symphony
RIP GLEN. This is my favorite Glen/Jimmy Webb collaboration. Many ( Most ?) casual listeners don't know this song is about reincarnation and each of the men Glen sings about is the same man as he goes thru different lives and periods in history.
He did all his songs, Oh so easy. Nice to see his other mate on guitar.
an absolute master , and a great man
"if I can."
"perhaps I may"
"I may simply"
Webb hit this with all his might & it will remain.
It's so hard to watch this, this incredibly talented musician in his prime, after watching the documentary of his battle with Alzheimer's. It's not actually his battle, it's his family's battle.

Loving the comments. So positive

It doesn't get any better than this.
a special man performs a special song by Jimmy Webb & knocks it out of the park--amazing
I wish they would release this on a dvd/cd set.

What a great combination...Glen Campbell with the Boston Pops!!!
This song is just one of few that actually makes me feel something. Also, this version definitely has a better ending then the highwaymen version, with the orchestra backing it up and all.
The best there ever was bar none !
I began listening to Glen when I was 16....loved him then...love him now...probably even more since my life's experiences render the lyrics even more meaningful.
Wonder how the Pops guitarist felt knowing he was 2nd best on stage that night?
One of the most underrated guitarists ever, an original Wrecking Crew member, Glen Campbell made hits for many people before he made his own with Jimmy Webb. This is splendid and arguably the best version performed. I know it is my favorite rendition...
i have to agree. this has become my favorite version. i think glen always out performs on a jimmy webb piece.
What a supreme talent he had, just mind-blowing how he interpreted a song. And this song is all the more poignant and profound now that Glen has passed. Perhaps he's still around and around....
Priceless.
I saw this show back in the 70's...awesome!
Thank you for adding this performance by Glen! The more I hear of him, the more I realize I didn’t really know him and his unlimited talents. Just amazing, Glen sings with the Angels now; without any doubts.
Very glad to be able to enjoy so much of his music today on you tube.
This was so easy for Glen, an epic performance. It's like he hit 2nd gear, and was just enjoying the ride...
Love your words about the great Glenn Campbell , a brilliant vocalist plus guitar player a very rare combination,
Thanks for post version of this song, it must be from a VHS or Beta tape, they aren't aging well, I have many.
Thank god for RUclips - would never have seen this incredible performance otherwise.
why do all great things go away, this is perfect
Glen, you and Jimmy do it the best !
Beautiful voice, lovely man - I always think of him as a cowboy, for some reason. Not forgotten, still around and around and around ...
Excellent..
Amazingly no capo was used in this version. You can see left hand working incredibly here to make up for it here and it sounds amazing
pure talent
Whooaaahhh Glen Campbell, the great.
Excellent version!
What a magnificent version of a great song....
First time to hear this but what an incredible song. Incredible performance by Glen Campbell!
Existential Glen!
Though one can appreciate why he later on speeded up the song’s delivery, still wonderful.
Saw Jimmy Webb on a show that Bobby Bare had on The Nashville Network years ago and he said this song came to him in a dream.
My favorite version is the one Glen did live with the South Dakota Symphony. It used to be on here but I guess it got taken down.
His solo acoustic version is great as well
i so love this
Such a masterpiece... I'm back again listening to this :)
..... Excellent.
I keep coming back for another round. Love it
such an incredible voice & guitar player!!
Loved his music. Still do!
That's also Carl Jackson playing guitar behind him... Carl was on Glen's Goodtime Hour....and also played banjo...He's been doing bluegrass for years, now. Lives in Nashville, I believe...

a good deal of footage taped on VHS in the early days was taped off local channels, many people didn't have cable and the reception was over antennas, this puts you at a handicap to begin with as you are at the mercy of reception issues when taped.

It was in the 70's before we had a color tv, still had the antenna, etc. Anyway, thank you!!
Wow !!!!
I wonder what those guys who restore analog videos could do with this. They restore to 4k and remaster the audio.. This is deserving
awesome. I prefer his version here to The Highwaymen.
Same. Glen did everything better
I like this version better than the album version
set list was as follows for the Boston Pops appearance:
Rhinestone Cowboy
Asleep On The Wind
Pocketful of Keys
Highwayman
Classical Gas
MacArthur Park
i remember watching this when it first aired. thank you for taping it.
Rest in peace
@sarahjeanbeans Wow. Correction. I had no clue. I just looked and found that he performed in place of Kris. I am glad I came across your comment. I may have never come across those recordings. Thanks!
would love a HD version of this recording. incredible, and my preferred version over the highwaymen one.
@Rowlandph I don't remember about the Goodtime Hour but Glen had syndicated music show in the 80's and Carl was on it. The 80's show was strickly music and a really good show. Which it was available somewhere.
WoWW! Fantastic..............I didn't know he did this before...interesting version ..no capo here. I often wonder why Glen used a capo.. including on later versions of this such was and IS his dexterity on the fretboard. I NEED mine badly, he,he..
❤️💎💐Love you, Glen.
Wow.
Wow! Thanks so much for posting this video! I remember when he sang this on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. I believe it was a dispute over Capitol Records not wanting to release this song as a single that cause him to leave to another label.
Yeah. Those idiots should have been shitcanned. It's not like Glen made millions of dollars for Capital over the many years he was with them 🙄
I'm a Glenn fan totally but I like the edginess of the Highwayman's version.
Thanks NorwoodGlen for sharing this incredibly powerful song. I've been unsuccessful in obtaining a video (or album or CD) or even a list of all the songs performed at this event.
Any help much appreciated.

Would it have been nice if Glen followed with "Wichita Lineman" (as in a song medley) ?
"Wichita ..." I believe was a personal favorite of Glen's.
Wow
No, it works much better with just Glen and his guitar. And he's a brilliant guitarist.
This beautiful song drowns with a big orchestra.
Glen's daughter has a knock-out version of this.
Glen in a landslide over Willie, Waylon, John & Kris.
epic
@NorwoodGlen Actually, I think Carl replaced Larry while the goodtime hour was still on...during it's last year...I remember seeing him on TV with Glen..so can't completely be sure....But you're right, he stayed with him...

holy shit that was good....just like off the record....
Glen tried to release this as a single but the suits at his label said it wouldn't be a hit...so the "Highwaymen" did it.
Yeah. Those idiots should have been shitcanned. It's not like Glen made millions of dollars for Capital over the many years he was with them 🙄
