    Just found this yesterday. This was the last session Joe Osborn and Hal Blaine and Glenn Campbell did together. Friends for over 50 years. That's my father playing the bass. Sad to watch, but good to see them together. Those three men, and Glenn made a massive contribution to the fabric of American music, and inspired the world.
    The song took the grammy for best country song.

      Yes, Joe Osborn is my father. As you probably know, he died December 14, 2018. He was my best friend and I miss him terribly. Hal Blaine passed 3 months later. They are a big part of why the '60s sound the way they sound. I was fortunate to see them work together on hundreds of recordings.

      That is very neat to find videos of your dad playing over the years. I randomly stumbled upon Glen Campbell’s “Wichita Lineman” a day before his 3 year death anniversary, and then over the weekend progressed to learn about The Wrecking Crew. 5 years ago I wouldn’t have really liked this music but suddenly I can’t get enough it. I’m going to look up what else Joe Osborn is known for.

    I remember when I first heard this song. I thought it was a sad, but beautiful tribute to his family. Now in 2023 I'm watching my grandfather die from dementia. I'm watching him not miss us, not know us, he is a shell of what he once was. I wish I could take it away, I wish I could make him remember. I wish I could be a kid for one more day. He was like my dad. He helped raise me. I don't want to do this.

    My friend is a late in life son of a lovely couple. My friend's widowed father had to be in a residential care facility when his dementia progressed significantly. My friend visited his father often at that facility. He would come home depressed and tell his wife: "Dad doesn't even know who I am when I visit him. But he seems to be happy to meet me as a stranger". His wife told him to look at his dad's affliction from a different perspective. "Dad is happy to meet 'new people" every time we go to see him".

    Such an unselfish thing the Campbell family has done... allowing his adoring fans to see the devastation this disease is causing him and his family. I grew up loving Glen's songs and played them for my children too. I am very touched by what the family has shared and this song broke my heart - there needs to be more awareness about what this disease does to families and those suffering. As a caregiver to people who are struggling with this and having had my own family members afflicted I appreciate very much what the family has shared. God Bless you all

But after hearing his last album and watching the powerful documentary, I just feel sorry for him. and his family. And, sadly, this is how I will remember him . A far cry from his collaborations with Jimmy Webb and his starring in True Grit. God bless the Campbell family.

Until I began running across his videos on CZcams I never knew how truly talented he was. And I had heard of the Wrecking Crew, just not the fact that Glen was a part of it.

I have loved Glen Campbell for a long time for his amazing guitar skills and lyrics from his classic songs. I think that it makes me think each day to be a better man, friend, father and husband. It also reminds me of what I need to do to make sure my family knows I love them and what I need to do to make sure they are ready for that sad day that is coming for all of us.

He does not have this horrible disease but the words are true about him. He doesn't miss me in his life. He doesn't respond to the pain that he has caused me. I live across town and he doesn't miss me when I am here waiting on his love. He has no idea what I am going through.. Selfishly he does not miss me.. To those that have to go through this horrible disease with a family member please forgive me for shining a light on my pain...May God grant you the strength to get through this and may you know that they loved you until their memory took them away.. Take comfort in knowing that... You are loved, rejoice...

    when the road you walk is dark.
    May you always hear even in your hour of sorrow,
    the gentle singing of the lark.
    When times are hard
    may hardness never turn your heart to stone.
    May you always remember when the shadows fall-
    You do not walk alone.

The love and grace in which he and his family deal with the horror that is altzheimer's is so loving and compasionate. As we baby boomers age, it is a disease that will affect many of us.My Father in Law suffered from Altzheimers and I believe my husband was showing early onset symptoms.
