Glen wrote a little music, but that wasn't his forte. He was a surprisingly accomplished guitarist, but people mostly knew him for his singing. If you look at the comments on his YouTube videos, you'll find that a large percentage of people are surprised and amazed by his guitar skills. Even fewer people knew he was part of the Wrecking Crew. A lot was discovered after his passing.

@AllThatJazzZ I watched a documentary on his life after he passed and that is how I learned of his so many talents including his involvement with the Wrecking Crew. Yes, I was astonished by his guitar skills.

Me too. I was completely ignorant of the massive amount of talent he had. And that he did all that without reading music. I wish I'd been one of those who was paying attention. My friend went to see him in concert about 3 times over the years. She said he was one of the best entertainers she'd seen, and she was a regular concert goer. I was really jealous once she told me, but the truth is, I would have turned her down if she'd invited me to go with her. **nononono* :shrug: If it were possible, I'd be kicking my own butt right now. 9999hair out0000 I'm thankful there are a lot of videos on YT.

The genius of Jimmy Webb and Glen. Best version of Galveston I’ve ever heard.
