  For Our  Glen Campbell Aficionados, et al NOTA BENE: Glen was one of the greatest musicians and artists of our time. I saw him again in a live Las Vegas performance after the Alzheimer's had set in.  He could no longer communicate very well and sometimes he had a blank look on his face and then sometimes he looked puzzled like he was trying to understand everything but I think he did have a few moments of clarity. His devoted daughter was on stage with him and acted as master of ceremonies, talking to the audience and telling about what her dad was going through. But the truly amazing thing was that when she introduced a song, Glenn performed like nothing was wrong!  He sang and played all the songs almost perfectly. I know it was because the music was such a part of him and it was coming from higher place in his being. I believe good music comes from the spiritual part of man (like Magical Mozart) and can actually by-pass the brain.He had performed those songs so much that they had become a part of his inner man.  "Let It Be Me" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBPYGWeCW_s Glen Campbell & Bobbie Gentry ~ "Let It Be Me" 1969 Classic BEST! www.youtube.com From the award winning, Platinum, 1968 duet album, "Let It Be Me" was the second single off this #1 album.
