"I’ve always admired Glen Campbell's guitar playing and loved his singing. I was moved recently when one of his final performances, during his illness, came on TV,” shared Eric Clapton. “When I was asked to sing and play with Glen on the song Jakob Dylan wrote, it all just felt right, and I am happy to be part of it."

“It was really special to me to be able to be part of this project. Glen was so important to not just Country music, but all of music. What a stallion!” adds Eric Church.

Among the artists and musicians to lend their talents to this project: Dave Stewart (Eurythmics), Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins), Chris Issak, Wendy Melvoin (Prince and the Revolution), Rick Neilsen (Cheap Trick), Steve Hunter (Lou Reed), The Dandy Warhols, Chris Chaney, Jason Faulkner Jr., Kim Bullard, Josh Freese (The Foo Fighters), Vinny Caliuta, Marti Rifkin, Dick Dale and Tim Pierce.

Campbell's Alzheimer’s diagnosis in 2011 was followed by the release of Ghost On The Canvas album and subsequent Goodbye Tour. Before succumbing to the disease in 2017 Campbell released the inspiring documentary Glen Campbell: I'll Be Me, which followed Campbell and his family as they overcame the hardships throughout his farewell tour across the globe.
