Musician's goodbye to his wife and family

[SchlongConery]

As noted in the Beach Boys thread, Glen Campbell has now lost his ability to play guitar. He was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in 2011 and immediatelt went oon his final tour and helped to produce a movie about his life and Alzheimers.

While he still had the ability, he recorded this song. Very touching.

Alzheimers was a curse but the early diagnosis may have turned it into a blessing so that he could write the final chapter in his own legacy and a good bye to his loved ones.

My dad had Alzheimer's. I like Glen Campbell. Use to watch his variety show all the time and his specials. My bro is a guitarist and he liked him too and listened to his records as he was learning and maturing in his art.

He was a great musician..... tragic

Alzheimer's and dementia are curses.

At least we can still enjoy the body of his work.
