Sad news from the Country Music World.

Glen Campbell, a well know country and pop music singer and guitar player, lost his battle with Alzheimer's. He was 81. I was able to see him perform in Germany while I was stationed there, in 1983. I know his politics were far to the right, but he was one hell of a singer. RIP, Glen Campbell, the original Rhinestone Cowboy.
