THE RHINESTONE COWBOY by Desmond Kelly
Glenn Campbell, the Rhinestone Cowboy has just “passed-on” , but while he wore rhinestones on his “concert-gear”, the talents of this man were akin to real diamonds and, as they also say, “Diamonds are forever”.There is plenty to read “on-line” about Glenn & “above” is only a special tribute to this great entertainer, but what I feel certain, too many Lankans & Lankan/Australians are not aware of, is the fact that Glenn Campbell was also a “Superb Session-guitarist” featured in the background of many other “Country- Stars’ recordings, has featured in dozens of guitar sessions himself BUT, especially for my readers of eLanka & the Lanka Times, please do this yourself or get someone, ANYONE, to open up “You-Tube”& watch
GLENN CAMPBELL ON “THE WILLIAM TELL OVERTURE”
“LEAD-GUITAR MAGIC IN “OLD-STYLE” PLAYING OF AN INSTRUMENT THAT ” TALKS TO YOU”–SUPERB.!!!
Glenn Campbell, we cannot ever forget you. Singer, Song-writer, multi-instrumentalist, Entertainer “STAR”.,
“Hasta la vista” Cowboy.!
Desmond Kelly.
