Four "Must See" Glen Campbell Videos to Honor his Homegoing.

I could not resist publishing just a bit more content to honor Glen and his great talent. Here are 4 must-see videos of him playing guitar...

Biggest and baddest (fastest) guitar solos...

(Well, dear reader, I removed three of the four videos even though I was simply presenting YouTube videos here with links directly to YouTube, and simply compile them here for easy viewing, they were removed. I suggest that you visit YouTube on your own and try to find them on your own and enjoy them). Also, I'm sorry to YouTube for doing something so bad. :(

Here's the message that showed with each of the three, however, I guess that this last one is still OK to present here!







and finally this great duel with his daughter, Ashley:


Thank you Glen for the legacy you are leaving all of us here. We will greatly miss you but we know that you are in a better place. R.I.P.

Farewell Glen Campbell. You were the "Best". J Cash Lives

I just tweeted:

Farewell Glen Campbell. You were the best studio musician and voice in Nashville's history and we all will miss you. J Cash Lives. 


When you visit Glen's site you'll see available his "Farewell Album" which is almost eerie as he past on today at the age of 81.

During that time and shortly after Country Music made its mark on the hearts of Americans and now in recent years many have "gone home"; Waylon, Johnny, George Jones, The Hag and others and today, Mr. Glen Campbell.

Today Glen left us after a battle with Alzheimer's and our prayers go out to family and friends.

Here are a few videos to honor the man and his legacy and my own video with my song "On the Other Side" which will hopefully console fans during this time.




Glen had a ton of hits but I'm choosing to highlight this one; Try a Little Kindness. I like to think this is a piece of advice that he would leave with us. Rest in Peace my friend and we will see you on the other side!



On the Other Side, written and performed by Terry (Ter) Scott:

Dottie Lou is Alive and Singing Well!

I'm taking some time away from the usual J Cash content to share some pure country with my readers and share a great experience I enjoyed recently. 

When you love Country Music as much as I do, I am always humbled when in the presence of the greats. As a young musician I met some and also played lead guitar for some; one being the famous Marvin Rainwater, but I was so young at the time I truly did not appreciate the moment. I’m older now; actually much older but we’ll just leave that at that and I’ll just say that I now have learned to appreciate moments and the people who share them.

One such moment was just last night when I met the lovely, talented and graceful Dottie Lou. 

I spent last evening with this country legend at her 24th Annual BBQ in an undisclosed place in Minnesota. I was privileged to be asked by my friend who is her son, Roger.

and others: Merle Travis, Moe Bandy, Waylon Jennings, and so many others which she was associated and who any country aficionado would know. She also had a picture of (I think) Justin Tubb and I asked Roger if he was a son of Ernest and the answer was the affirmative.




Outside with the mosquitoes, neighbors, family and fans, was a local country band that played covers with that authentic Tele sound, a bass player that was spot on, and two guys who may have been brothers with great voices and actually could mimic Waylon, Bocephus, and The Possum (you can look that up if you aren’t the country aficionado you thought you were J). 

Roger sang, his daughters also sang; all awesome, beautiful and original songs. Dottie also graced us with her voice; she is doing very well for her youthful age!


If you are not aware of Dottie Lou’s music I was able to find a few things for your listening pleasure. 





Contact Dottie at her site here. Please let her know that her fan, J Cash Lives sent you!
