Saw an article about this today from the AP. It said Glen is releasing his final studio album, recorded after his 2012 Goodbye Tour. A collection of classic songs, including collaborations with Willie Nelson, Vince Gill, and 3 of his children.

It's really good. I am amazed at how well his voice has held up.
I was just thinking the same thing about this track. I've really enjoyed his more recent albums, starting with "Meet Glen Campbell," which motivated me explore his earlier work from the '60s and '70s.

I'm so surprised that Glen was able to record another album once he came off the road after his farewell tour. This is wonderful and a definite purchase. I'm particularly pleased that there's a Roger Miller song on the album. I don't even know the song ("Am I All Alone (Or Is It Only Me)"), but doesn't that title sound like Roger? This should be a great album!

I will be getting this being a fan but also a way to say Thank You for everything. Just your work as a session man in the 60's makes you a legend and then you became "Glen Campbell", the man who did it all!

Just listened to the audio clips on Amazon, and to my ears this is a home run! Even better than his 2008 comeback 'Meet Glen Campbell.' Not over-produced, no over-the-top strings, just a natural sounding, slightly country leaning, really, really good album. Strong vocals, no hint of a decline at all. Exceeded my expectations! What an excellent cap to a career and a life. I'll get my Dad a copy, too, for Father's Day!
