Campbell could play anything. I was not the biggest Glen Campbell fan, but this performance really displays his consummate musicianship, as well as his showmanship, highlighting a big smash hit in the U.K., and which never caught on in America.
As an old Irish lass, thank you so much. It made me cry thinking back to my family, many of whom are now gone. Good times make good memories. Glad to have the ones I can still recall.
Absolutely gorgeous... It means much more to me, since i was born in Argyll, just a few years ago (74 to be precise - lol). Well done Glen, you marvel. xx
Wish people wouldn’t credit Paul McCartney with this song. He might have sung, and played guitar on it, but it was WRITTEN BY DENNY LAINE who not only played with McCartneys band Wings, but also the Moody Blues.
Oh please! He wasn't a Campbell! Drop the Paul is Dead conspiracy bullshit! It wasn't true, and the so-called "clues" about his alleged death were invented. John Lennon said at the time "If Paul was dead I think I'd know about it". Even the change of eye colour and height were made up. And how come nobody who knew McCartney before and after 1966 came forward and said "You know, it's the strangest thing..." And please don't repeat the BS about all of them being threatened with death by MI5 for the last 60 years...
This is really out of whack, like reality had the flu that day. Nice, too. You don't see too many guitar slingers pick up the bagpipes. Got to love the tucked-in v-neck tee shirt too.
I would love to know how he managed to play while taking his right hand off the chanter. I'm going to call bullshit on this ! This "performance " was about as genuine as Bonn Scotts in Long way to the Top !
Bagpipes have a completely different design from other wind instruments. They WILL continue to provide music after they player stops. Watch enough videos of them and you will not "hear" when the player takes a breath. Don't believe me, Google it.
No he isn't. You fell for the BS , like many did. But Paul McCartney didn't die in 1966. There was no such replacement as William Campbell. As John Lennon said at the time "If Paul was dead I think I'd know about it. The so-called "clues" to his supposed death were a joke." And the alleged changes of height and eye colour were also untrue. How come none of the many people, both friends and family, and fellow professional musicians, before and after 1966, never stepped forward to say "hang on a moment..."? And please don't repeat the ridiculous claim that they were all threatened with death by MI5 if they "told the truth". Britain's Security Service had, and has, more important calls on it's resources than threatening the lives of hundreds of it's citizens over a period of 60 years concerning a conspiracy theory about the alleged death of a member of a pop band.

So much talent. Love listening to Paul McCartney and I loved listening to Glenn Campbell. We are of a generation that was truly blessed.
The definition of talent right here
Absolutely perfect performance by Glen. Pure talent! 💜

Watching an American dude singing a fake Scottish song written by a Liverpudlian did all of that for you?!
Mull of Kintyre is about a peninsula in Scotland, not Ireland.
@Meddled
It's about ancestry. Paul an Glen both have Scottish roots. And how is it a fake Scottish song? Maybe tone down your hate a bit.
This beautiful melody brought up a deep feeling in me. Thank you Glen, for being who you were.
Just happened on this vid and it brings me back to the 60's when I first saw Glen perform. He was such a talent and what a fantastic voice. God bless
One of most talented pop/rock musicians from the most talented band of the era.
Love Paul McCartney and Glen Campbell, great, lovely, kind men. Thank you so much. Makes me happy and sad at the same time, timeless talent.
Absolutely gorgeous... It means much more to me, since i was born in Argyll, just a few years ago (74 to be precise - lol). Well done Glen, you marvel. xx
He was a true Scotsman!
Thus disproving the fallacy
He could play those bagpipes
Wish people wouldn’t credit Paul McCartney with this song. He might have sung, and played guitar on it, but it was WRITTEN BY DENNY LAINE who not only played with McCartneys band Wings, but also the Moody Blues.
R.I.P L.E.G.E.N.D 🎸🙏
Glen campbell. Much respect
Bloody Beautiful Pipes !
My dad wrote the first dance for Merv's nephew's wedding so many years, ago. A true gentle man.
A man of so many talents , god bless you !
He played Highland Cathedral many years, ago, at the Mountain Winery above Saratoga, California...an amazing presentation.
This is Absolutely Fantastic 🙏🙏🙏
What a talent.
Man: That was excellent! G.G. Glen!
Amoooo demais voz grossa e firme , me emociona ! 😊🤩🤗👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻♥️❤️♥️❤️♥️🌍🌸🌼🌷🌺🌻🌹🌸🌼🌷🌺🌻🌹🌸🌼🌷🌺🌻🌹🌸🌼🌷🌺🌻🌹
Tribute to greatest songwriter ever
Mull of Kintyre was composed by Sir Paul McCartney and Denny Laine.
@@crystallineblue4344 I think that's what he meant.
My heart bleeds with joy
That was beautiful!
Out of the box!
Bless Glen 🙏🙏🙏
He can n play anything and he is easy on the eyes
Beautiful!!!
Is there an instrument he couldn’t play???
McCartney wrote it as a bet. By far the best rendition. McCartney would approve.
Que espetáculo ❤❤❤
It is real hard to get that thing in tune with a combo.
Paul McCartney~Wings version is so superb, especially with Denny Laine
Ain't a version, it's THE song.
Sorry if I said Scots & Not Irish? Not to forget Welsh. Oh WTF I Love it 💜💋💋💋
The song is about Scotland not Ireland.
@@davidlauder-qi5zv I sort of got that David, but I thought I'd throw in a bit of humour with my error 🌞 Thankyou Though ✌✌
Well, he is a Campbell.

Gosh. Is there anything Glenn couldn’t play!
This is really out of whack, like reality had the flu that day. Nice, too. You don't see too many guitar slingers pick up the bagpipes. Got to love the tucked-in v-neck tee shirt too.
glen was cray
Wonder how Paul felt about this?
I would love to know how he managed to play while taking his right hand off the chanter. I'm going to call bullshit on this ! This "performance " was about as genuine as Bonn Scotts in Long way to the Top !

Nice Scottish-American take on a Scottish song
It's not a Scottish song. It's a song written by a Liverpudlian about a place in Scotland.
CAMBPEL MUST BE SCOTCH YES? 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟BEAUTIFUL
Scotch is a drink. The people of Scotland are Scots.
I'm going to documentary
I'll stick to the piano.
Paul is dead!
