I gotta say John Denver for personal reasons - beyond that he crashed his plane in my home town. That left a huge mark on everyone at the time. Can you imagine a town-wide vigil singing Take me home, Country Boy & Rocky Mtn High?
Who’s Glenn Campbell? 😜
He’s wonderful too but not JD.
No shade on Glenn
Haha. I was waiting for that. Glenn is a bad** just tossing up a little flak.
Campbell was one of the most accomplished guitar players in history, and never sang a bad note in his life. He didn’t write songs.
John Denver wrote some decent songs and was very mediocre as an artist.
Not exactly a comparison
And it’s Glen with one n.

Anybody who seriously concerns themselves with the adequacy of a Big 7mm for anything we hunt here short of brown bear, is a dufus. They are mostly making shidt up. Crunch! Nite-nite!
Any guy that Eddie Van Halen asks lesson from has to be a bit better than just okay.
When a country is well governed, poverty and a mean condition are something to be ashamed of. When a country is ill governed, riches and honors are something to be ashamed of . Confucius

I had never seen this video until searching the net after Glen's death. Gentle On My Mind is one of my all time favorite songs, this version is fantastic.

When you stop and think that this was just off the cuff it is even more impressive. Of course he has played that song about 50,000 times.
Until I started playing guitar I didn’t appreciate his talent. And that little three minute ditty, just how many different scales and picking techniques are used, and the speed, boggles the mind.

No need to choose, thankfully. My instant reaction was Glen Campbell but on reflection, I wouldn't pick either one's career over the other. Both have a book of work that many many people in Nashville or Hollywood would kill for. Oh God was a big big movie at the time.
