Glen Campbell - I Am A Lineman For The County - Glen Campbell Sings Jimmy Webb Glen Campbell
The southern gothic hit trilogy of ‘By The Time I Get to Phoenix’ (1967), ‘Wichita Lineman’ (1968) and ‘Galveston’ (1969) wove Jimmy Webb’s and Glen Campbell’s careers together. It was a magical meeting of minds, with Campbell’s rich expressive, melancholic voice a perfect match for Webb’s widescreen lyrics and complex chord sequences. They would continue to meet up and record on-and-off over the decades. The results were often frankly beautiful.
“I Am A Lineman For The County” pulls together every Jimmy Webb song recorded by Glen Campbell between 1967 and 1982. “Jimmy was like Brian Wilson, or Paul McCartney” said Campbell. “He can take a raw piece of material and make a horseshoe out of it. His songs, they’re timeless.”
