Shame to read on the S.G. Forum that Glen Campbell has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's.

Apparently he was diagnosed about 6 months ago and is putting togethter a farewell tour.
Not steel guitar I know, but still of interest to many of us.

Very sad, I think we would all regard and respect him as a first class musician and singer.

You just never know what's round the corner.

yeah a great shame, what a voice, and what a fabulous guitarist, its a very cruel disease, but apparently a lot harder for the family than for the victim, as the victim is not really aware, but even so, my thoughts and prayers are with him,

I was lucky enough to play on the same show as him many years ago. He was a really superb singer and a consumate professional. What a great shame this should happen to him. Hope he can pull off the tour.
