Rolling Stone reporting it with a source from his record label, so seems to be true.

Glen Campbell, the indelible voice behind 21 Top 40 hits including "Wichita Lineman" and "By the Time I Get to Phoenix," died Tuesday. He was 81. A rep for Universal Music Group, Campbell's record label, confirmed the singer's death to Rolling Stone.

Adios....

 

Got it right on the "8th death of 2017" thread. 2nd hit after Sam Simon (not that hard). So this one is the first that actually counts for something...

I was listening to a couple of his tracks last week. Not bad... Can't really call it good either, because Country is just not my music, so I was actually impressed that I somewhat enjoyed it.

I got to say, I'm not the biggest country fan by any means, but Campbell, along with Johnny Cash were by far the best country singers.

Very shocked. Thought he would last a little bit longer. Maybe it was wishful thinking for 2018.

An absolute legend, I'll keep him ever gentle on my mind.

 

RIP Glen.

I did like his songs, although I never bought any of his records. 

It was not cool to like him when I was at school.  A girl in my class was a fan and she was very gratified when I owned up to liking him.  I remember accompanying her on a clandestine trip to a record shop in town where she bought his latest single.  Can't remember which one that was now.

A little sad that Glen Campbell died, though hopefully he's in a better place after his long battle with Alzheimer's.

 

Was a fan of Rhinestone Cowboy and Galveston.

There's this ridiculous but fitting album cover.
Too soon?

Glen Campbell also has continued the curse of the 40-50 section of the deathlist at #43.
