Glen Campbell Artist Snapshot:

Glen Campbell had already enjoyed success as a session guitarist and surrogate member of the Beach Boys when he scored his first big hit, "Gentle On My Mind," in 1967. In the following few years Campbell climbed the country and pop charts with a number of Jimmy Webb compositions, among them "By the Time I Get to Phoenix" and "Wichita Lineman." His career hit a second peak in the '70s, thanks in large part to the hit "Rhinestone Cowboy." In the '80s Campbell recorded a number of gospel albums as well.

Review

Q (3/02, p.133) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...The title track of this album is still the most weepsome anti-war song ever recorded..."

Title Note

Digitally remastered by Bob Norberg & Rob Christie (Capitol Mastering).

This is part of Capitol's Cornerstones series.

With its two Jimmy Webb-penned hits--the sweetly melodic title track and the slightly overwrought though lyrically obscure melodrama of "Where's the Playground Susie?"--one might expect GALVESTON to be, like GENTLE ON MY MIND before it, one of Glen Campbell's more pop-oriented albums. The fact is, however, that GALVESTON is the album on which Campbell once and for all swings firmly to the country side of country-pop, where he would stay--barring minor digressions like the country-disco fusion of 1977's "Southern Nights"--for the rest of his career. Producer/arranger Al de Lory and Campbell stick to the Nashville Sound even on tracks like the Spanish-guitar showcase "If This Is Love" (on which Campbell's often-underrated picking skills are flashily shown off) and the trad-folk "Today." Closing out Campbell's early period with some of his best songs, GALVESTON is also a forerunner to the sound Campbell would explore in the '70s.
