One for "the zimmers" on here...

Glen Campbell 1970....astonishing sound quality (presumably re-mastered) and hard to believe it was so long ago....

Actually whilst it was his number one in '70 this has to be much later!

I liked the Conway Twitty version but this, for me, is way better.

The rock Tom Chaney hit him with obviously wasn't big enough back in 69'

Billy Fury version for me

What ****ing idiot am I!

The reason the sound is so good is that it was probably very recent. That explains why he looks nothing like Glen Campbell.

Whatever, it's still a fabulous performance....

Looks like 2001, and I didn't know he had Alzheimer's either.

A rock will help that process along, Aunty..

Yeah, probably. I just need someone to administer it.

Loved Billy Fury too B-B, but never heard the Glen Campbell one till today.

You know, one thing missing in much of today's music is passion.

She her first hit, "Delta Dawn", in 1972 at the age of 13. BTW before the pedants get their knickers in a twist they never had a marriage certificate, but she closer to him than than his 4 wives ever were

I wouldn't say I was getting old, but when I saw the thread title, I started singing the song frpm Showboat.

Only make believe I love you,
Only make believe that you love me.
Others find peace of mind in pretending,
Couldn't you?
Couldn't I?
Couldn't we?
Make believe our lips are blending
In a phantom kiss, or two, or three.
Might as well make believe I love you,
For to tell the truth I do
