Glen Campbell was a talented fellow. He got a good long life, and was among the most successful recording artists of all time. A sad end with Alzeimers. I had some of his records when I was a kid.

Not really music, just an emotive American wail... :tea:

Plenty of Oz country music as well. Equally crap... :tea:

Said Daemon, who's sorry too, but y'see we didn't have no choice
And our hands they are many and we'd be of one voice
We've come all the way from Wigan to get up and state
Our case for survival before it's too late

Turn stone to bread right away...

This guy is good. Sturgill Simpson produced the album and does backing guitar and vocals.
