Sad news. 'Wichita Lineman' an enduring favourite of mine.

R.I.P Glen.

I have to put a word in for Jimmy Webb, the prolific songwriter who supplied Glen with many of his hits, including By the Time I Get to Phoenix, Galveston and Wichita Lineman.

RIP Glenn...It shouldn't be overlooked that he was an outstanding guitar and banjo player and session musician who replaced Brian Wilson on bass guitar when the Beach Boys went on tour 1964/65....a talented man and a sad loss..

Glenn was indeed an overal musical artiste. Like Llew 'Witchita Linerman' is probably my favourite and most memorable

Not a country music fan at all but Glen crossed over into mainstream with some fantastic hits.

RIP Glen

Indeed. And ISTR that Jimmy released an album a year or so ago of him singing his own songs.
