Comment from another video of this song: "My Dad was a lineman in the Midwest for 35 years. He walked in 5 minutes late to work one morning and his boss asked him why he was late. He explained that Wichita Lineman came on the radio as he was pulling in. The whole crew nodded approvingly and his boss said it was an acceptable excuse.

Who remembers Glenn's Saturday night TV show?

@glawnow1959 4 месяца назад

The Glen Campbell Good Time Hour! Replaced the Smothers Brothers variety show IIRC. With Glen at what, 8 PM and Johnny Cash at 9, it was joked that crime in Arkansas fell dramatically on Wed nights because everyone had to be indoors watching TV!

Little known fact. Glenn Campbell toured with The Beach Boys in 1966 when Brian Wilson was on his touring hiatus. Glenn not only had an amazing voice. He also was one heck of a great guitarist. This song is such a classic and the arrangement is outstanding.

@Cheryworld 4 месяца назад

You have to see this man play guitar. He was the premier session guitar player for years, before becoming a big act on his own. His songs are lovely, and monster hits, but mello . In concert he would show off. He shreds like you wouldn't believe

@ssia6938 4 месяца назад

The song perfectly captures the loneliness of his job out in the middle of nowhere. He is trying so hard to deny his need for anyone.

My wife and I married in June of 1967 (still together 57 years later), and in spring of 1968 we bought a cabinet model Fisher Philharmonic combination turntable/ AM FM radio. The music store where we bought this unit was owned by a man whose son I was teaching in ninth grade then. We had saved a lot of money through summer jobs, so we blew $800 cash on the stereo combo! Mr. Kaplan was so shocked that a couple our age (23 & 24) was able to plunk down eight $100 bills for the purchase that he threw in 3 or 4 brand new albums, and later on even invited us to his home for dinner. The Glen Campbell album displayed by Lee I still have, and it plays beautifully on the same stereo all these years gone by. Oh, as I recall, the other records were Herb Alpert and the Tiajuana Brass, the newest one out by Cream and a Dionne Warwick 33rpm vinyl. Btw, I'll turn 79 this year and my wife 80, and all of this seems like yesterday.

Jimmy Webb, what an incredible songwriter. Glen, one of the great guitarist ever, borrowed Bassist and Wrecking Crew member Carole Kay's guitar for the solo.

Short, but sweet. Glenn was a Country artist, but this is not really a Country song. It was more of a contemporary ballad. You should watch the movie, “I’ll Be Me,” concerning his struggle with, and eventual demise from, the insidious progression of Alzheimer’s disease. It’s both heart-breaking and uplifting, and demonstrates both his talent, his good-natured way, and the devotion of his family, friends, and fans, whom surrounded him.

@gesundheit602 4 месяца назад

This is why I love music from my childhood in the 70’s and records from the 60’s my parents played. Music had intros that allowed these songs to “breathe” and the arrangements of violins, cellos, horns, etc on top of the traditional instruments just carried you away. These are some of the reasons these songs remain timeless. I’m sad that so much of today’s music seems to be so disposable now, but at least we have all these great songs to listen to from the past. It feeds my soul. 🙂

@angielofton6372 4 месяца назад

The line you repeated kills me every time I hear it. “And I need you more than want you, and I’ll want you for all time”. I recently went to see Jimmy Webb do a show where he sang his songs and told lots of stories. It was great. You get it, kid.

Let's put this song into context... Once upon a time...there was a LARGE amount of truckdrivers that went across country all day and night... more than today. And these truck drivers had a thing in there cab called an 8 track tape player. Truck drivers loved their 8 tracks. And Wichita Lineman touches those guys on a different level... there are lyrics that refer to not seeing your loved one as much as possible...trying to explain how you miss them and love them so much...then, importance of your work... and riding the big roads of the country... I mean... if you're a truckdriver... is there any song that could even come close to beating this? Maybe a few... but not many. Every 8 track player in the late 60's (and most of the 70's and 80's) in America came in contact with the 8 track cassette of Wichita Lineman. In every truck.

The rabbit hole of Glen Campbell is deep and beautiful. Studio musician, before Solo artist, played on Sinatra albums, then the Wrecking Crew, the studio musicians brought in by Brian Wilson, for Pet Sounds , then co starred with John Wayne in True Grit, then went solo , and dropped top ten hits throughout the 70s. Unbelievable guitarist, singer songwriter, great suggestion, great reaction.

@kevinmcconnell3641 4 месяца назад

A Glen Campbell story for you; Back before Glen got sick and his ability to play degraded, Eddie Van Halen approached glens golfing buddy Alice Cooper and asked him if Alice could hook Eddie up with a guitar lesson from Glen Campbell. I saw an interview with Alice where he was talking about Glens ability on the/with a guitar?? This is a Jimmy Webb composition! Jimmy wrote lots of songs that won a Grammy or two or ten back in the day!

Glen was the only guy in the wrecking crew who didn't read music. He was so good it didn't matter. One of the best guitarists, beautiful voice. I remember watching his tv show when I was a kid. Every song has some hot guitar licks in it.

@Russ-gy7tx 4 месяца назад

L33, in the music industry, the Wrecking Crew were equivalent to hired "Gunslingers" and Glen was a Crew member before he hit it big. During the 1960s my dad listened to Country and some Rock and my mother Motown, Rock, Pop, Top 40, R&B Soul, and Jazz. We never knew every song we heard on the radio the Wrecking Crew played on the records. You must watch the "Wrecking Crew" Rockumentary. edit: of course not on every song we heard.

@edwinawilcox663 4 месяца назад

Not really country but country artists and fans embraced Glen. Glen Campbell himself was a fan of country. He was also an exceptional and accomplished guitarist - some say the best in the business. Had a bad addiction to cocaine for a period of this life but thankfully he overcame it.

@erolbulut2584 4 месяца назад

One of the best guitar players, ever

@bobschenkel7921 4 месяца назад

Didn't know Country songs could be existential. Glen Campbell was an excellent musician, and one of the first Country stars to break through to the mainstream music market. "Wichita Lineman" and "Rhinestone Cowboy" were huge hits, and led to him getting his own TV show, "The Glen Campbell Good Time Hour", which ran for several years.

@andrewcole3736 4 месяца назад

Jimmy Webb also wrote Galveston which Glen Campbell recorded and it’s another Jimmy Webb stand out song. I don’t think of this as a country song either but I’m not much into putting music in boxes. I was on tour in Texas when this came out and I remember hearing it on the tour bus radio and completely blown away by the song and the production. Glen was the real deal. 🕊❤️🎼

@ChrisEchoes 4 месяца назад

Great story about this song and the instrumental break: Campbell called Webb to ask for another song with a name of place in it (like By The Time I Get To Phoenix) and so Webb eventually sent Wichita Lineman but he said he needed to work on it a bit more. Webb didn't hear back from Campbell so a while later he called and asked if he didn't like cause he never heard from him again. Campbell's reaction was 'Oh, we just recorded it!!" ... and then Webb told him that the song wasn't finished and he wanted to add one more verse. 'Too late', was Campbells reaction, song is coming pretty soon.

@jpmnewyork 4 месяца назад

It's only considered "country" because people insist on stuffing everything into categories, and Glen Campbell was known primarily as a country artist. But it was written by Jimmy Webb, who was a mainstream and eclectic composer, and it topped the pop charts at the time. I was a teen into pop/rock at the time, but I loved this record -- and was surprised when it was my father, not me, who went out and bought the 45. It is simply a beautiful song and arrangement that crossed genre and generational boundaries. It's beauty has actually grown on me, and on many others, over the decades.

The Wrecking Crew playing at their best... an orchestral arraingment that is both haunting and ingenius, topped with the perfect vocal. My favorite musician is Zappa...But this song is still pure magic. by the way... some of these musicians are playing on the album Freak Out by the mothers of invention

Glen Campbell was a member of The Wrecking Crew, and played guitar on dozens of monster hit songs in the 60's, from Frank Sinatra tunes to The Beach Boys and more. What an amazing musician and performer he was. He hit with this song, genius lyrics by Jimmy Webb, magnificent musical track by The Wrecking Crew, and a perfectly beautiful performance by Glen Campbell. Campbell also played that lead guitar section on a six string bass, giving it that special sound. "And I need you more than want you, and I want you for all time." One of the best lyrics of all time.

@HareDeLune 4 месяца назад

Glen Campbell was huge back in the 70's. I remember his picture on a box of breakfast cereal, with a 45 rpm single stamped on the box that you could cut out and play.

@hoppers13 4 месяца назад

Awesome session guitar player, great vocalist, and this song contains the line, “and I need you more than want you, and I want you for all time”, one of the most intense lines ever written. And written of course by Jimmy Webb, one of America’s greatest songsmiths. Genre doesn’t matter in music; if it’s good, it’s good, and this is great.

@bart1506 4 месяца назад

I don't know how you know about The Wrecking Crew, but it made me so happy! If you've watched the documentary on the crew, you need to hit the Muscle Shoals documentary. "The Swampers" are legendary.

@thescrewfly 4 месяца назад

Worth noting that, just before he started his solo career, Glen Campbell toured with the Beach Boys standing in on bass and vocals for Brian Wilson who no longer wanted to do live work. In other words he was a known reliable talent in more than just country music. This song may not be pure country but apart from his session work Campbell also sat in with The Kentucky Colonels from time to time - and they certainly were.

@spooley 4 месяца назад

Glen could play any style, he was amazing on guitar and such a beautiful voice. Of all people Gilbert Gottfried had a great interview with Jimmy Webb in 2017 which is available where you get your podcasts as the saying goes. GGACP celebrates the recent birthday (August 15th) of legendary songwriter and composer Jimmy Webb (“Wichita Lineman,” “Up, Up and Away,” "By the Time I Get to Phoenix'') by revisiting this memorable interview from 2017. In this episode, Jimmy shares an entire career’s worth of memories and anecdotes, including meeting Elvis, playing baccarat with Ol’ Blue Eyes, turning down 40K a week to play Las Vegas and and sitting in on a recording session of the Beatles' “White Album.” Also, Jimmy parties with Paul Williams, crosses swords with Harry Nilsson, joins John Lennon on his “lost weekend” and pens megahits for longtime friend and collaborator Glen Campbell. PLUS: Father Guido Sarducci! Gilbert sings again! The Nelson Riddle Orchestra! The musical genius of Johnny Rivers! And Jimmy plays “MacArthur Park” in…MacArthur Park!

@davidschecter5247 4 месяца назад

Jimmy Webb was one of our greatest songwriters at the time. Glen Campbell one of the best vocalists and better guitarist than 99% of the most famous guitarists. You should check out a video of Glen playing guitar. Unbelievable. It's "pop music." Glen was the first HUGE country-crossover artist. One of the most talented "country" musicians ever. Jimmy and Glen were one of the great "partnerships" in songwriter/singer history. Check out "Still Within the Sound of My Voice" and ""The Moon's a Harsh Mistress" and "Galveston" for more amazing collaborations between them.

I'm more of a Rock guy at 67 years old, but Glenn Campbell was one hell of a writer and performer. He was a "Beach Boy" for a short time, and also a member of L.A.s famed recording studio musicians "The Wrecking Crew." Glenn was one of the greatest guitarists in the world, Rock, or otherwise, and artists from all different genres knew it. He was a great talent. Unfortunately, Glen passed away a few years ago from Dementia. My mother passed away from the same terrible disease. Thanks for this great song. God Bless all

@dekk640 4 месяца назад

Glen Campbell passed me by in my youth, too square too country and it was my loss. I got into him when I read that he did a stint in the Beach Boys on tour. Let's face it Brian Wilson certainly knew better than most of us. Sorry I didn't take you seriously in my early years, so underrated.

@michaelnorris7353 4 месяца назад

I have to agree with you man in that this is not country - more easy listening - but very good. Glen Campbell was quite the amazing guitar player. You should hear him play Beethoven's "William Tell Overture" with a full symphonic orchestra.

I’m British, and I don’t normally listen to what you call country music, but this is an old classic that I remember from way back (I was 14 in 1968), and I still like it. I seem to remember a slightly different performance of it; I suppose Glen Campbell must have sung it many times (and it’s been covered by others). You know, there was a time when Eric Clapton got sick of people demanding ‘Layla’ at concerts.

the 12 string guitar featured on the song "Any Way the Wind Blows" from the album Freak Out...is Carol Kaye.

And most of these guys from the wrecking crew are on Lumpy Gravy.
