Thanks to Red Robinson for sharing these two clips of an interview with the late Glen Campbell…
from Red’s website…
Hearing that one of my favourite performers had died shook me. I knew Glen Campbell had dementia and it would eventually take his life, but the reality of his passing hit me hard. Here is one of the most talented performers ever. He was a much in-demand session player, admired by his peers and a genuinely nice person.
I did many interviews with Glen over the years and the last time was at Vancouver’s PNE where he appeared with his daughter. You could see that he was struggling but he presented his show like the professional he was. I miss him greatly.

Hello Red,
Its been a while since I spoke with you, I remember the old days when the “IGNITERS” car club
was active, I also remember moving your “brand new 57 Ford convertible from a Shell Station
opening that you were MC’ing because you didn’t want to get it dinged with so many people
there at the opening, That station was out in Kerrisdale. Its always a sad day when one of our
old buddies passes on although he leaves behind so many fond memories, Glen was an except-
ional person & entertainer. He will be dearly missed. I trust this note reaches you in good
health & hope you never stop what you started so many years ago at CJOR
Best Regards
