Very Best of Glen Campbell

Glen Campbell

You could name scores of country artists whose catalogs go deeper than Glen Campbell's, but it would be next to impossible to name more than half a dozen singers who can match Campbell's countrypolitan best: "By the Time I Get to Phoenix," "Wichita Lineman," and "Galveston" (all late-'60s crossover hits) are as sonically gripping and emotionally powerful as popular music gets. That's thanks in part to their songwriter, Jimmy Webb, but just as significantly, it's due to Campbell's not-quite-manic croon and the dramatic, hook-laden production of Al DeLory. And Campbell had several more hits in nearly the same league, "Gentle on My Mind" and "Try a Little Kindness" being just two of the most obvious. This is all the Glen Campbell you'll probably ever need, but what's here is essential. --David Cantwell
