My father died with Alzheimers...not sure I could watch it. I love Glenn Campbell, though.

I read a review of it today and it said it shows footage of him forgetting lyrics and forgetting the names of his band members. Sad, and I'm sure painful to watch. An incredible talent. Sad to see this happening to him.

One of the most amazing and personal documentaries I've ever seen, it will rip your heart out. What an amazing talent. I never realized how influenced I was by his music. Such a talented player, singer, and songwriter.
God bless him.

Wichita Linemen is still one of my favs. We'd all gather around the TV to hear "Hi, I'm Glen Campbell!" - in his high tone voice, then it was entertainment time!

I'll never forget seeing Glenn and Roy Clark playing together on the same guitar neck, switching between rythms and leads, just amazing.

Jimmy Webb wrote a very touching facebook post about Glen recently.

As a kid I grew up on the sounds of Johnny Cash, the Beach Boys and Glenn Campbell. I will never forget Crossing the Galveston Causeway for the first Time blasting and Glenn's Song of the isle. then again for the last time followed by Peter Gabrials Here Comes the Flood.
As a kid we all assumed the artist was the songsmith, and Glenn was the perfect voice for Jimmy Webb
It's sad to see our childhood Herod fall, but I it's good to see Glenn have the balls to give us a glimps of his battle and life with this disease.
