RIP Glen Campbell
RIP

If you haven't watched the doc "I'll Be Me" yet, watch it. It's incredible, and incredibly sad.

Watched it and cried, it's amazing how well he could perform knowing how advanced his disease was at the time.

Rhinestone Cowboy is the song I'll always remember him for.

Looks like I'll be Me will be airing tonight on HLN at 9EST. Since it's a last minute change might not reflect on the channel guide.

You really need to change your user name to someone that fits your persona better, might I suggest Keith Olbermann, that's more you.

Even filled in for Brian Wilson for the Beach Boys during their 1964 tour

He turned down an offer to be a fulltime member of the band.

I prefer Southern Nights

That's the only song anyone will remember him for. Guy was a one-hit wonder.

Incorrect. He had many hits in his long career.

Saw him sing the national anthem at game two of the NBA finals in 1992 at America West Arena in Phoenix. Just him and a guitar. Greatness.
