One of the best songs ever written IMO. Gorgeously constructed.
IIRC, Carol Kaye's bass riff opens the tune, but the solo is Glen on Carol's bass.

Alzheimer's sucks. RIP Rhinestone Cowboy

Look for "I'll Be Me", his daughter's documentary of his last tour - a lovely, heart-rending couple of hrs.
Among other things, Glen Campbell made my favorite couplet ever, "I need you more than want you/And I want you for all time" my favorite couplet ever. RIP -

The late Leon Russell always said that Glen was the greatest guitarist he has ever heard. My parents played Glen's records in the house while I was growing up, and I loved hearing him then and I still do now. I love his rendition of John Hartford's "Gentle on My Mind." RIP

"Rhinestone Cowboy" was like nothing i had ever heard before ... which is so peculiar, seeing as how i was such a huge Beatles fan, and was a voracious listener of WNEW-FM. lotta groundbreaking stuff churned out over those airwaves.
but ... "RC" literally blared out the speakers ... it has such a bouncy grandiosity. it was stirring - just a wonderfully crafted tune. man, i would crank that toot sweet the second i heard the opening. a fantastic slice of Mid-70s pop genius.
R.I.P. to a legit legend ✌

Oh man, so sad. If you haven't seen his documentary from 2014 about dealing with Altzheimer's, I'd recommend checking it out. It's called "I'll Be Me." RIP. You are out of hell and hopefully singing away up in heaven.

Agreed. My grandmother had it. She knew she wasnt the same as she used to be and it was so frustrating for her.

Same with mine. I didn't see it first hand as she was in Iran, but man I heard the stories. The scariest one for her and my cousin was when she took my cousin's baby out in his stroller for a walk around the block. 1/2 hour later she shows up without the stroller. Everyone frantically went to find it and found the stroller left on the sidewalk a block over. Thankfully no one kidnapped the baby. She just could not remember. So heartbreaking for everyone involved. :(
