- Today, my travels back in time take me to the famous grave site of country and pop music legend Glen Campbell at his family cemetery in Delight (Billstown), Arkansas.
I also show you my $45 a night hotel room at the EconoLodge, in Texarkana, Texas, that I booked through Travelocity.
Thanks for joining me on another nostalgic road trip down memory lane.

Oops, I am late to the party. Glen has an Uncle who lives very close to the cemetery. He would have welcomed you in his house, treated you well, and shared some fantastic Glen and "Uncle" Boo stories. Boo is who taught Glen how to play. Good folks living in that part of the country! Nice job!
wow, that would have been cool. thank you for sharing with us lp!
@@TheGraveyardChannel Have you ever seen his last video? In it he's leaning over one of the graves there that you pictured, I'll include the video so you can compare. Beware it is a sad one, his way of saying goodbye. Glen Campbell - I'm Not Gonna Miss You ... He's there at 2:13 seconds in I tear up every time I watch that you'll see why. ruclips.net/video/U8TsAh-zYFI/видео.html
Boo wouldn't have because he had already passed, he shows the headstone.
The Campbell’s lived in that area nearby.
"Southern nights"
Sweet song sweet voice sweet smile sweet man
R.I.P. GLENN
YOU WERE SO MULTITALENTED.
YOU WILL BE SORELY
MISSED IN THE MUSIC WORLD
I love “Turn Around, Look at Me”. He actually wrote that one. He recorded so many wonderful songs and put so much feeling into every one. ❤️
Loved Glen Campbell's voice. I fell in love with "Wichita Lineman" first of all. A gifted singer and courageous man.
I loved Glen Campbell, he was one of the best singers and players ever. Thanks for the tour
I live near here, my Dad grew up with Glen as kids.
How cool! Thanks for sharing that with us Jimi 👍
Glen was always greatly loved in the UK. We grew up with his music at home. Recently heard his recording of "The last time I saw her face" its so beautiful, I cried. Very special singer and great guitarist. Much missed 💖
Actually got to meet his mom and dad in Delight many yrs ago. They lived in a home built by Glen for them. They were delightful people and so nice to talk with. A trip I will never forget.
I was fortunate to see one of his last shows. He was a bit confused and needed promoting but was still charming and his talent remained intact.
nice to hear. thanks, catherine.
Loved gentle on my mind. My favorite.
Thanks for the post.
i know their was a claim that he still enjoyed performing, but some if the video I ahve seen ( particularly the one with his where they discuss with the poor man standing there how his medication had made him highly sexed and that he had started to urinate around the house were horrific-no-one does that to someone they love, and to say he had given permission for those segments is laughable, they could have givne the poor man some dignity rather than squeeze every last penny out of him.
@@ruthsmith2447 yeah I know what you mean..people posted photos of Patrick from "dirty dancing" a couple of days before he died..sooo mean! No shame some people!
One of a handful of true super-talented superstars.
He was part of my growing up, like many stars were. I loved his tv show and Wichita Lineman is my favorite and By the Time I Get to Phoenix my 2and favorite. I remember many songs and was happy he still remained important to the music listeners. His manners were always southern like. Glad his heart was to be at home for eternity.
My ultimate favorite glen Campbell song is
Rhinestone Cowboy because I heard the song when I was in school back in the 70s
With this vlog you have captured the driving force that made Glen Campbell the humble star that he was. He always was that down to earth man. The small town life and atmosphere gave him the ability to make us all feel happy as we listen to his music. Thank you for this sweet vlog
so true and nicely said. this was a special one for me to do. thanks, norma!
Thank-You Very Much For Taking Us All To Glen Campbells 🌹🎵✨Resting Place❤️❤️
Loved Glenn Campbell singing Someday Little Girl from 1969 True Grit . Enjoying this trip to his grave. His music was so lovely. What a great choice for your video!!
thanks, pamela. it was a special one for me to do.
Hi Steve ,I just wanted to say thank you for going to Glen Campbell grave site ! I loved all his music! Rest in peace Glen an thank for your music & talent .
thanks, jan!
Glen was a giant in the music business,a legend! I was fortunate to go to a concert of his Branson,MO. At the Glen Campbell Theatre! Excellent show! He will be missed.
I loved Glen Campbell. He had one of the most beautiful voices ever! Wichita Lineman was my favorite I still listen to it always. Everything he sang was beautiful. R.I.P. Glen Campbell you are truly missed and thank you for leaving behind such great music!
Glen was a great musician. If I had to pick a favorite song, I liked so many, I guess it would be Galveston.
The Raytown Cowboy
Thanks for the memories rest in peace glen he was my favorite I loved all his songs God bless glen campbell ♥️
Definitely my favorite was Rhinestone Cowboy. I remember listening to that song played over and over again on the car AM radio during a family trip from Minnesota to Washington and Oregon in the Summer of 1975. I was about to begin my sophomore year in high school.
Hi Steve, thank you for bring us the final resting place of one of the most beloved legends. I cant say what my favorite song as I lived all of his music.
My favorite Glen Campbell song is the one that made him a superstar "By the time I get to Phoenix". Glen was going to dropped by Capitol records until he was playing a Johnny Rivers session and came across Johnny's album "Changes". He played the album and came across the song with much excitement. Glen told AlDelory pianist and Capitol exec that he wanted to record the song. the rest is history and Glen was on Capitol records a very long time.
i didn't know that. thanks for the behind the scenes info. very interesting.
Wichita Lineman was my favorite! I liked him as a pre- teenager, but now realize how talented and diverse he was.
His last song"I dont want to miss you"shows him at that grave yard visiting his mum and dads grave.
wow, I haven't seen that. i'll look for it. thanks, jsa!
It’s “I’m Not Gonna Miss You”.
I liked all of Glen Campbell's songs. It's a really nice private resting place.
Wichita Lineman is my favorite. What a talented guy he was.
Jimmy Webb wrote the song..Glen Campbell made it a national anthem
Mine too.
He was one of the greatest guitar players ever. Singing came later !
@@Vodoo954 he could have stood on his guitar playing alone , layer that with in incredible voice and you have a talent like none other . Listened to him growing up in a little island in the Pacific called Fiji . He was huge there , mind you still is . We all know his songs . Greatness lives forever 🎶🎶🎶🎶
When ever I hear I’m not goin miss you I start to cry. Love the good time hour
Great vid Steve. Glen's final resting place is unusual and quite humble. Loved his album Ghost On The Canvas. Any Trouble always brings a tear to my eye. Keep on doing what you do Steve, you're doing a great job.
Thank You so much! A lifelong Glen Campbell fan... and hope to visit here one day. Beautiful ❤️
I Love Glen's songs, hugs from Mozambique🇲🇿🇲🇿🇲🇿🇲🇿, Africa
Beautiful setting made even better with all the birds chirping. Loved Rhinestone Cowboy as a kid. Appreciated more of his other songs as an adult. His daughters song for him is one of the most touching songs ever written.
Glen was a cousin, the Campbell Surname is from Scotland, in the South we have a lot of small family cemeteries..
how cool. thanks for sharing this with us, C!
Glen legend , always, may he rest in peace.
Galveston is the track I will always link with Glen, RIP you wonderful man..
I saw him with my dad on his last tour. He forgot lines at times but still sounded great.
Southern Nights, my fav.
I love Glen Campbell I grew up on his 8 tracks back in the late 60's early 70's. An awesome talent. Singing & playing guitar he was sure blessed with a huge gift. I'll always love him & his music. I saw him in 1986-87 in Ohio. ❤️
Its Only Make Believe is my favourite. Since my school days. Im in love with this song
I love his music. Wichita Lineman is my favorite! Thank you for this!
Loved Glen Campbell, just a great performer and entertainer. Thanks Steve.
thanks, joshua!
Daughter Ashley such an accomplished musician. Toured with dad and kept him in tune on the last tour when brain functions fading.
As a Kansan I'm partial to "Wichita LIneman" and than great verse: "And I need you more than want you / And I want you for all time."
My favorite Glenn Campbell song was Wichita Lineman 70’s music was the best!
Another great Artist. Love alot of this man songs!!!!
Rolled right through that stop sign.
yikes, I didn't even notice that until I was editing the video. fortunately, the town was pretty deserted on an early sunday morning.
@@TheGraveyardChannel We have all done it. Great video. Bless.
@@TheGraveyardChannel enjoy your videos...but yeah, be careful out there.....was chuckling as you rolled thru the stop sign. Been there, done that.
My fave Glen Campbell song is Anybody Going to San Antoine or Phoenix Arizona . Great show thanks for taking us along. Now I have a little more insight on Texarkana. On the State Line!!!!
My wife and I miss your videos because give the history of the people and their history
hi mark, i never stopped doing my videos. sorry you haven't been able to find them. i do one or two every week. thanks for watching!
One of my favorite Glen Campbell songs is "Still Within The Sound Of My Voice." It just has a certain magic to it.
Great choice Joshua! I completely agree with you, it's magical, Jimmy Webb's fabulous writing skills and Glen's sublime perfect voice sends shivers through me everytime I listen to it and I listen to it a lot- love it! In fact, I just love any song by Glen Campbell- the ultimate singer and musician - a master of his craft- both singing and his expertise as a guitarist- never will anyone come close in my opinion. RIP Glen - thanks for such wonderful memories.
Welcome to Arkansas!! Sorry about the weather. We have had a very busy rain season. Thank you for showing Glen Campbells grave. He was my moms and mine favorite. I lovd his early songs also. Seen him a few times when I lived in Phoenix. Enjoy the rest of your trip.
My favourite is Wichita Lineman but I also loved the song he did with Bobbie Gentry called Mornin’ Glory.
Hope you enjoyed Arkansas. I've been here since 1991. Transplant from Pennsylvania. I like it.
Loved it. Thanks for sharing with us Jaks 😊👍
He really did have a beautiful voice and through his songs,
he will live on.. My favourite song was Gentle on my mind..
Nature Girl My favorite song by Glenn, was True Grit. I also love nature. I live in the woods on a lake.
@@buckjohnson1119 Hi.. You live in what sounds like my ideal..
I love forests, rivers and wildlife..Just so peaceful..
Nature Girl Yes, I live in God's country and have had many one on ones, with special wild animals that come, to trust me. That is a gift from God. On the down side, there is a bad element that come to purposely harm, them. 😢
@@buckjohnson1119 I don't have the beauty of forests, but I have a
little garden, where I look after all the squirrels and Birds that
enter. I'm always surprised by people who don't like trees
and little animals that have brought me so much joy..
But hey, we're all individual I guess.. 🍁🌿🍀🍂🍁🌿☘️🍂
Nature Girl Birds are wonderful. I had some ground squirrels that I just loved. They were very friendly and had an incredible whistle sound. I had thought it was an unknown bird until I saw it sitting up and whistling. Another loss of friends, that were around the yard for a couple of years.
I moved tadpoles from drying up puddles in buckets after catching them with a spoon and tiny strainer at the gravel pit. I carried them back to the lake at let them go into beautiful clear water. I had wood frogs, toads,
And green tree frogs in the yard after the matured in the lake. 🐸
I live in Arkansas I should go visit his grave and pay my respect, I bought his "Best of the Early Years CD at Wal-Mart great album! Only two hours and 30 mins away not far! RIP MR Campbell!
I loved the song “Everyday Housewife”. Great song.
me too!
I love the song "Always Gental On My Mind". And what he did for Charlie Pride at the CMA in the 70's😄.
one of his best songs!
gentle
Been thinking all night about my favourite song of Mr Campbell .
Mine would have to be Country Boy 🎶🎶
Hi Mr. G !! I liked pretty much all of Glen's work and he was a fantastic musician. Right at--13:38-- you can see the lightening, good thing you are inside and safe.
It's hard to believe Glen is gone but I hope he is at rest now and the fighting over the estate is over.
I've got some catching up on some videos of yours. Yay!!! Always fun being with you. Hang In there Steve.🤗🖒🤗💖
He was such a talented singer and the world is better for his music.
I am surprised the family plot isn’t fenced and gated. Wonderful resting place.
Galveston got me hooked! I received that record as an Easter gift from my parents.
My sister and her husband are farmers in Missouri. They have a lot of land and on it is their personal family cemetery. All family members are buried there. My sister maintains it.
I love that. too bad all families can't do that. but it would make it a lot harder for me to visit :-)
That Cemetery in Delight is where my Dad is buried. Campbell Cemetery is in Billstown where Glen is from and his family is from. Family member here so I know.
Love the road trips. Especially the hotels and motels in out of the way places.
Gentle on my mind.. Surprised his grave was so simple. What a peaceful place.
We all die we are no different.12e3
This Is A Really Cool Video! I Really! Really! Enjoyed! The Border Line! One Side Is Arkansas! And Right Across The Street Is! Texas! Now How Cool Is That!😁😀👍👍✌ My Favorite Song By Glen Campbell Is! Wichita Linemen!❤ I Grew Up With Glen Campbell's😊🤗😀 Music!🎤🎵🎶 Thanks For All Of Your Fantastic Videos!😃👍👍✌
i really enjoyed doing this one, too. thanks, janice!
Sadly remember Glen Campbell announcing he was diagnosed and battling Alzheimer's disease. I recommend Glen Campbell: I'll be mine...a touching tribute film. Thanks Steve. Interesting and informative video. Stay safe out on the road.
Having grown up singing The Rhinestone Cowboy....and many other have always admired Glenn even from India and now in France.
Thank you for the visite pf the cemetry. May he RIP.
Stay blessed.
Glen Campbell is an all time great artist! My favorite was "By the time I get to Phoenix." I remember in the 80's he was doing the summer tours and I waited in line to see him in Ohio. I was in the front row so had a chance to be kissed quite afew times during the concert. A thrill of my life. He was a good sport about it, too.
what a great memory. thanks for sharing it with us, linda!
It's funny you mention Try A Little Kindness. My wife's cousin wrote it and the motel you stayed in is about 4 blocks from her Texarkana house.
omg, wow, how neat and weird :-) thanks for sharing that, mark! love that song!
Thank you, Steve, for a wonderful vlog on Glen Campbell. How kind you are to take so much time to remember for all of us.
thanks, FE. it's a joy to do!
Glen Campbell had some great songs can’t really pick a favourite, great video Thank you, Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
Thank you Steve. Another great stop!
Like 👍👍 Glenn Campbell song best singer ever loved him singing all he did best one I liked is before I get to Phoenix and Rinestone Cowboy sticks my mind Rest in peace ✌ Glen Campell xxx
Witcita lineman! Ty for doing this trip IAM going to see it one day he was my favorite next to Johnny cash n Elvis... Glenn sang about true to life songs may he rest in peace🙏
Favorite song...By the time i get to phoneix
I have to say I love Glenn Campbell's Last song " I'm Not Going to Miss you". My father also suffered from dementia. toward the end He didn't know who I was, but he did know that I was someone he should know. somedays I was my mother, his mother, my aunt, etc. although, the week before he died I went to see him and on that last visit he knew who I was and he was so excited to see me, like he hadn't seen me in years. I guess as far as he was concerned, he hadn't. That is a gift I will take with me until I see him again. It is so hard when someone you love so much doesn't know who you are.
Glen Campbell was an excellent studio session musician before he became famous 🎼💕
Rhinestone Cowboy was one of his famous songs. I used to listen to his music decades ago. God rests his soul.
Hi Steve. Delight AR is like most rural small towns in the deep South. When you visit it's like going through a time warp. It's common to have a family cemetery in the South. Usually they're on private farmland that were working farms 100 yrs ago. My dad is buried in the Welch Family Cemetery on his parents farm in Edenton, NC. We still own the farm and lease it out to local neighbors. I loved Glenn Campbell; Wichita Lineman is my favorite but I love all his music.
Be safe. Thanks for caring. Really enjoy your trips down memory lane.
thanks, Sandra!
I love love loved Glen Campbell. He was a true musical genius.
Steve, Steve, Steve!! Why do I love your adventures so much?? Lol please keep them coming!
LOL I don’t know but I’m sure glad you do Shirley 😂 and I plan to 😊👍
Thank you for sharing this one Steve, Glenn Campbell loved his voice and his songs still do, he was also a top guitarist as well. I love how he loved his Scottish roots and wore The Kilt many times, as a proud Scot myself and a wearer of The Kilt I am a great admirer of The Man. Lovely room in your hotel and a very good price mate, still loving all your vlogs keep them coming and thank you for all your hard work :)
Hello Steve, I live near the grave site of Helen Gurley Brown, and David Brown. She was the editor-in-chief of Cosmopolitan, and David was a film producer of many films like; Jaws, Cocoon, Driving Miss Daisy, Sting, and many more. They are buried in a family cemetery in Osage AR. Family cemeteries are common in my state of Arkansas.
The family that built my house in 1846 are in a family cemetery. You also mentioned “Trail of Tears” which has come to describe the journey of Native Americans forced to leave their ancestral homes. It was a sad time for Native Americans.
Thank-you so much for taking the time to find this grave!
it's one I really wanted to visit. thanks, bk!
I like that song sunflower. He sure could shake those strings, too.
Oh I loved Glenn Campbell, Rhinestone Cowboy is my favorite song of his. Great artist who turned his life around & quite drinking .& lived a full life time. I was lucky enough to watch him play guitar at a concert in Houston Texas .& he put a12 string electric guitar over his head and neck and didn't miss a cord not 1 ,awesome guitar player.
As you drove by those telephone lines I could hear him singing through them. Thanks for another great video. Very interesting that the Campbell’s have their own grave site. I’m in Canada and have not seen that before. It seems strange in an interesting way.
I heard him too :-)
I heard him singing in the wires!🎙️🎵🎶🎸
Very surprising place when we are so used to big and expensive sites........... tells a story in itself don't you think...........a humble man in the end....family first..........one can really respect Glen for that .....thanks for taking us there.............................
I LOVE ❤ALL OF GLEN CAMPBELL SONG'S
Another fascinating video. My favourite Glen Campbell song is ‘Rhinestone Cowboy’.
My.Dad loved all Glen Campbell’s hits especially I’m the Lineman for the County
Billstown Arkansas was the home of Glen not Delight. Best I can remember Glens Dad was the first person buried at Campbell Cemetery. Glen either already owned the land or bought it after his Dad died and made it the Campbell Cem.They were from Billstown not Delight so thats why.
So Amazing, thank u ✌🏻🙏🏻💐💕💕🌹💕💕💕🙏🏼🙏🏼🌹💕
I luv Glenn. His talent was off the hook. Such a waste to lose it all like that. A very special man.
Witchita Lineman is my fav. Thanks for sharing Steve!
one of the best songs ever. thanks fts!
Glen Campbell was my first crush in first grade🥰. I live by Galveston, so the song was always playing back them. He was Soo beautiful back then and his variety show was nice.🤠👍
Thank you Steve Big Glenn Campbell fan so happy to see his resting place great job my friend my song i love is Lineman
His last song was I’m not gonna miss you it was so sad it was to his Wife He was truly a great man.What he did for not only music but Alzheimer’s awareness
I love his music. You can sing along with his songs. You can't say that about too many of today's singers.
He's at peace with his family
