Editorial Reviews

The 10 song All-Time Favorite Hits only scratches the surface of ace session-guitarist-turned-superstar-singer Campbell's extensive output, but provides a good if skimpy sampling of some of the artist's most memorable hits. Included are Campbell's classic Jimmy Webb-penned '60s hits "Wichita Lineman," "Galveston," and "By the Time I Get to Phoenix," plus the similarly popular "Gentle On My Mind" and "Dreams of the Everyday Housewife." Rounding out the package are his '70s countrypolitan smashes "Rhinestone Cowboy," "Southern Nights," and "Country Boy (You've Got Your Feet In L.A.)." For a more thorough account of Campbell's career, fans might want to check out Razor and Tie's 2 CD set The Glen Campbell Collection (1962-1989) or Capitol's 3 volume Essential Glen Campbell series. --Scott Schinder

4 out of 5 stars Good songs, but a flawed collection!.......2005-09-01

Glen Campbell is a longtime favorite artist of mine. His career has covered many genres of music. Just look at all the different artists he played for during his studio musician days! There were earlier forays in Gospel music. He recorded the "O Happy Day" album for Capitol. His composition "Less Of Me" has been a favorite with Gospel artists. A concert album included "The Lord's Prayer." I Knew Jesus (Before He Was A Star) was a hit. That album featured "Amazing Grace," with Glen on bagpipes. Yet the 80s and 90s brought a fresh committment to Christianity and Gospel music. This collection features many great songs. He recut "Amazing Grace." There are duets with Russ Taff and Anne Murray. He played a guitar solo on "The Boy In Me." Famed Christian trumpet player Phil Driscoll co-wrote "Jesus In Me." Glen said that it was like his life flashed before Phil's eyes. Sadly, I can't give this collection 5 stars. Several things bug me. 1. The practice of sticking new songs on a greatest hits collection should be illegal. There are two here. Ditto for remakes or live versions of old hits. 2. Most of these songs come from his New Haven albums "Show Me Your Way" and "The Boy In Me." How come no songs were included from "Wings Of Victory," the album in between? 3. We get the title song of his Word album "No More Night." If they could get it, how come they couldn't also license songs from the "Favorite Hymns" album? This would have made a great double album. Here's what I would have included. 1. Tall Oak Tree 2. Who's Minding The Garden? 3. I Will Arise 4. Wings Of His Victory 5. Searchin' Love (with Free Call) 6. I Surrender All 7. Suffer The Little Children (with Johnny Cash) 8. Less Of Me 9. The Lord's Prayer 10. Someone Above 11. O Happy Day 12. I Knew Jesus (Before He Was A Star)

5 out of 5 stars I love this album!.......2002-09-24

This is not the commercial Glen Campbell of the 70s or the balladeer of the 60s.

But it is Glen in a spiritual yet comfortable musical setting.

He sings from the heart and that's important!

4 out of 5 stars MORE "DIAMONDS" THAN "RHINESTONES", COWBOY.......2007-04-30


Glen Campbell, although he was a major music star for an entire decade (late 1960s through late 1970s), is now more like a punch line of a joke. The joke? I dunno. How 'bout: Is it music yet? No, it's Campbell's. (If you don't remember the old soup commercial, you won't get it.) A lot of people came to think of him as being too hokey, a kind of Wonder bread, pseudo-Country boy pandering to a mainstream music audience. But give an honest listen to THE GLEN CAMPBELL COLLECTION (1962-1989) and you'll find that, like Dwight Yoakam, Glen's no jokeum. (Nah, don't blame me for that line. I knew someone who knew someone who said he took a college class with Dwight - before he was a big star, naturally - and the teacher used to say in class, "Dwight Yoakam, he's no jokeum." Well, Dwight's bank account ain't no jokeum either, that's for sure.)

With the exception of two songs, every cut on this 40-track collection climbed into the Top 40 of either the Country or Pop music charts, with some appearing on both simultaneously. And some of them really carry me back to my youth, before I was wrecked by women, whiskey, 'n' Wock 'N' Woll (i.e., a time when "pleasure" wasn't synonymous with "emotional and physical pain." But, man, I miss those latter times!)

I actually met Glen once, about 1979. A friend who used to baby-sit his kid took me back to his dressing room after we saw him perform at The Riviera Hotel in "Vegas, Baaabeee." And Glen seemed really ... uhm ... well ... sweaty.

I was playing THE GLEN CAMPBELL COLLECTION (1962-1989) in my car some years back, and my Ma (may she rest in Peace) said, "That's Glen Campbell? I never realized before what a good voice he had." If my Ma liked it, that should tell you something. (Well, it tells you that she liked it, at the very least!)

Some of these songs are beautiful, lilting little numbers with an understated but powerful sentimentality. Such as GENTLE ON MY MIND (a gorgeous song!), WICHITA LINEMAN (reminds me of my Pa), and TRUE GRIT (the theme from the great John Wayne Western). Others wear their emotion right on their sleeves: WHERE'S THE PLAYGROUND SUSIE? (wasn't he a bit old to be asking?), DREAMS OF THE EVERYDAY HOUSEWIFE (sad but I enjoy it), and BY THE TIME I GET TO PHOENIX (by the time YOU get to Phoenix, I hope to be long gone. I hate it here!)

But surprisingly, Ol' Glen really gets across the Joy of Salvation in a couple of upbeat Gospel songs: OH HAPPY DAY (which seriously rivals composer Edwin Hawkins' version!) and the humorously clever Anti-Hippie statement, I KNEW JESUS (BEFORE HE WAS A SUPERSTAR). Glen (who you'll recall once spent a little time playing with ... er, I mean "for" ... The Beach Boys) was a musical chameleon. He proves in KENTUCKY MEANS PARADISE that he was no slouch when it came to the real down-home Country stuffs, and his WILLIAM TELL OVERTURE displays why he was once such a very sought-after studio musician: he goes lickety-split over that fretboard.

And in Glen's tearjerking ode to Mother, THE HAND THAT ROCKS THE CRADLE, Ted Harris penned one of my all-time favorite song lyrics. I call it "The Ultimate Anti-Feminism Anthem". (According to the National Organization for Women, I'm marked for Hell 'n' ready!) . . . . .

He got here red and wrinkled, scared and cryin'
Then she took him up and held him to her bre@st
And he sure was glad to get what mama offered
Then he went to sleep and put his fears to rest

It didn't seem to matter what he needed
He could always count on mama to supply
And regardless of the sleep she might be losin'
He always found a twinkle in her eye

There ought to be a hall of fame for mamas
Creation's most unique and precious pearls
And heaven help us always to remember
That the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world

She taught him all the attributes of greatness
That she knew he couldn't learn away from home
And by the time she wore the cover off her Bible
Her hair was gray and her little man was gone

There ought to be a hall of fame for mamas
Creation's most unique and precious pearls
And heaven help us always to remember
That the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world

At the risk of sounding like some sentimental fool (which I am), I just wanna say that I adore those words; they create a lump in my throat and make my eyes moist. There's no mention in there of Mama chasing my teenaged brother Napoleon through the house and how God performed a miracle to save him from being beaten to death by his own Mama and with his own walking crutch . . . but it's just as well. Besides, Nappy brought it upon himself (like he always did).

I can recall that my Pa used to like Glen's SOUTHERN NIGHTS (a bouncy tune if there ever was one), and after he passed away, the song THEN YOU CAN TELL ME GOODBYE reminded my Ma of my Pa and it always made her cry. So diggin' and cryin' to Glen Campbell is just a McCarthy Family tradition. There are a few tracks on these discs that are more RHINESTONE than DIAMOND, but overall, THE GLEN CAMPBELL COLLECTION (1962-1989) is a REAL GEM.

Yoey O'Dogherty, that funky editor of Morocco's Cowboy music magazine 'SADDLEBAGS 'N' SIX-STRINGS', once said to no one in particular, "Play that Country music, White Boy." Well, Glen Campbell plays it, and he plays it quite well for a guy not named Waylon Jennings.

5 out of 5 stars Country music for popular music ears........2002-10-08

Although I generally don't like country music, I'm very impressed by this collection of great songs with widespread appeal. There are the '60s Jimmy Webb classics with strings like "By the Time I Get To Phoenix" and "Wichita Lineman," the later hits from the '80s country revival era like "Rhinestone Cowboy" and "Country Boy," and some great newer ones I somehow missed altogether. There is some very nice banjo playing and exciting chords in "Bloodline" and "Faithless Love," and a very tasty guitar solo in "She's Gone, Gone, Gone." The album also had all the obscure 1970 songs I wanted, like "Honey Come Back" and "All I Have To Do Is Dream."

5 out of 5 stars Wise Choice for an Anthology.......2002-08-26

This is an excellent collection for those wanting just Campbell's best and most popular songs. It includes all the usual stuff, and even includes a few gems from the latter part of his career, including _Sunflower_ and _Still Within the Sound of My Voice_, which is simply one of the best ballads of his entire career. However, I'm disappointed the collection doesn't include the 60s Capitol gem, _Hey Little One_. The 3-CD Essential set, however, does includes this song.

5 out of 5 stars Glen Campbell (1962-1989).......2002-03-20

Glen Campbell has always been one of my favorite artists. This CD has all of the songs of this great entertainer such as "Gentle on My Mind", "Wichita Lineman", "Galveston", "Rhinstone Cowboy", and "Southern Nights." If you are a fan of Glen Campbell this is a must for your collection. It is highly recommended!

5 out of 5 stars A great Mix of songs.......2001-07-03

40 great songs, including his big hits:Rhinestone Cowboy, Gentle on my Mind etc. And great not so big hits:Burning Bridges, Manhattan Kansas etc.3 great "movie songs":True Grit, Every thing A Man could ever need, and Any wich way you can.And great "Bonus tracks"including Glen playing The William Tell Overture on his Guitar(that's neat!).If you like Glen Cambell You'll like this collection;If you love Him you'll love these cd's.I've listened to these cd's so many times I've got most of the songs memorized,It's well worth the price.

          1 out of 5 stars Not True.......2005-12-06

          "Everything this Brian Wilson-produced girl group ever recorded!"... I really don't think so.

          I came looking for a disc with their cover of Patience & Prudence's 'Tonight You Belong To Me'. It, along with a few other tunes (as mentioned in another review) are not here, tho I see it is on a different, out-of-print (therefore very expensive), collection.

          Guess I'll just have to wait till someone DOES issue a collection of "Everything this... girl group ever recorded".

          3 out of 5 stars The Honeys shoot the curl!.......2005-10-24

          Not exactly everything recorded by Brian Wilson's pet project (some B-sides are missing), but this femme-version of The Beach Boys is modest, upbeat, and enjoyable. Since buying The Honeys on vinyl has become nearly impossible for anyone living on a budget, this CD really is a surfer-lover's godsend. All their important singles and major back-up work is included, and the surprises are a-plenty: a match-up with Glen Campbell on "Guess I'm Dumb" is fabulous, Gary Usher's "Sacramento" is delicious, and (recording as Ginger and the Snaps!) the girls come up with a near-classic on "Seven Days in September". Other great songs: "Raindrops" (hard to get that one outta your head!) and "Oly Oxen Free Free Free". Scrappy perhaps, and unpolished, but spirited and infectious. Surf's up!!

          4 out of 5 stars The Honeys, from Surfer Babes to High Drama Girl Group.......2003-06-15

          Produced by Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys, the Honeys had a pretty good run in the early Sixties starting with songs like "Shoot the Curl" and "Pray for Surf." After all, "Honeys" beach lingo for female surfers (or at least it mean the girl friends of the surfers). The group consisted of sisters Marilyn and Diane Royell, along with their cousin Sandra Glantz who went by the stage name of Ginger Blake had replaced a third sister, Barbara, and necessitated the change from the Royell Sisters to the Honeys. "The Honeys Collection" has 26 of the best songs by this minor girl group from both their early days recording with Capitol and their later albums with Warners, when they moved from the novelty surf songs (check out "Surfin' Down the Swanee River") and became more of a traditional girl group under the influence of Phil Spector. The big hit here is "He's a Doll," written by Wilson, who married Marilyn Royell in 1964 when the song had some modest chart success. "Raindrops" "The One You Can't Have," "Guess I'm Dumb," and "Goodnight My Love (Pleasant Dreams)" are the other choice songs in the collection, which ends with a couple of tracks from a 1983 comeback album that went nowhere. The result is not a great collection but certainly worth listening to for fans of the Beach Boys as well as those who like the girl group sound in all its myriad forms. In fact, you probably have already heard the Honeys sing because they were back up singers for both the Beach Boys and Jan & Dean (they also recorded some songs as Ginger & the Snaps).

          4 out of 5 stars get this CD now...........2002-11-13

          A great compendium of the Honeys' work. Their single "Pray for Surf" is one of the all-time great surf records. Even leaving aside the Brian Wilson connection, this is a disc you'll be tickled to own.

          3 out of 5 stars Honeys.......2002-09-17

          This CD sounds really 60's, which is great. I didn't really like the other singers in the compilation, but that's what the skip button is for. I will also recommened the Japanese release "Brian Wilson productions" over this one because it has a couple "Honeys" songs that are not in here, both essentials.

            1 out of 5 stars GLEN CAMPBELL COLLECTION.......2006-11-17

            THERE ARE ONLY 34 TRACKS ON THIS CD AND THE AD SAYS 40 TRACKS. ALSO THIS CD IS COPY/PROTECTED AND WILL NOT PLAY ON MANY CD PLAYERS--WHICH IS WHY I SENT IT BACK TO THE VENDOR. NOW THEY SHOW THE COPY/PROTECTED LOGO BUT IT WAS NOT THERE WHEN I ORDERED THE CD SET. HAD IT BEEN SHOWN, I WOULD NOT HAVE ORDERED THIS CD.

            2 out of 5 stars Look closely!.......2006-08-19

            Of the 34 tracks, it seems that only a portion feature Glen Campbell solo (very few of his classic core songs). There are various other artists featured including several instrumentals. I tried to see all of the tracks before I bought and even emailed the vendor for a list but received no response. Now I know why! In addition, the disc was copy protected so I couldn't transfer to MP3 to play on my portable.
