Not to put anybody else down, but these guys (to me) are two of the best examples of genuine musical genius. They could play their songs, someone else's songs, alone, or paired with any combination of other performers...and it was ALWAYS great. Literally almost unbelievable!!!

Glenn is one of the best flat pickers ever. Just listen to those runs.

Two amazing musicians. Glen Campbell is too often overlooked because he was known for country, but I think one of the greatest guitarists ever.

For the record, Glenn received the highest compliments from his guitar peers! From Eddie Van Halen to Roy Clarke, the list is endless of those who requested one on one lessons from the fabulous session player extroadinar!

These guys were just amazing. I was a dumb kid and didn't realize how talented Glenn Campbell was. Now as an adult I can really appreciate him. The man died of Alzheimer's recently. How sad for him and a great loss for us. Then of an era with these guys.... Takes me back.

Love you Leon, love you Glen. You haven’t left us; we hear you!

I was hearing this as a kid in the late 60s and early 70s. It never gets old! And Leon Russell is one chill dude!

Glen is probably THEE most underrated guitarist of all time (that I know of). I used to think it was Prince, but even he said Glen is the greatest guitarist he knew. Another Glen story: Eddie went to play golf with Alice, and asked if he "was gonna get Glen to play?" Eddie didn't care about golf, he wanted to meet him hoping to get a guitar lesson from him. Edward Van Halen wanted a lesson from Glen Campbell. THAT'S how good Glen was. Can't believe I've only found this out in the last year. Enjoy, unless you're a close minded blockhead like I had been most of my life (with music anyway)

Two great American Treasures!!! I love you guys! You are not gone and never forgotten.

One of the greatest guitar players!

Both members of the legendary "Wrecking Crew". If there were awards for session work, these guys would need a warehouse to hold them all. Both are wonderful folks, and time is running out.

Pure Talent and Class. Both Glen and Leon!!

Two of the most amazing musicians who worked so well together and now perhaps playing in the presence of The Lord.

Two of the finest musicians of our time

Those two have more talent than most any band these days....

Two enormous talents sadly missed.

Two masters together, what a treat.

His guitar skills were amazing, it adds so much to the song. No wonder it was a hit!

Leon has been involved in a whole lot of the rock music of our lives. it's great that Elton John rescued him and got some well deserved attention for Leon's talents.

Glen Campbell & Leon Russell were both INCREDIBLY TALENTED musicians.

Musicians with class and joy.

Wonderful to see these two together.

WOW... both Glenn and Leon were such an amazing musicians and could play just about anything on cue without even rehearsing. Musicians like that are NOT a dime a dozen like many that we have today.

Their voices are great together

Marvelous musicians all of them. Re Heartbreak Hotel Glenn says, "What key's it in?" so Leon starts playing and they all pick up on it in an instant. Wonderful.

Pheew! Those effortless guitar fills rob all hope from us amateurs. Make room in Rock and Roll Heaven.

Glen is under-appreciated. He was a real guitar player. Leon was crazy, crazy good.

Absolutely, pure genius. Only when you play guitar can you realise what he’s doing, he’s playing his solo over the correct chords without any effort whatsoever ! The result is a lyrical solo which fits in with the song exactly with the occasional country note..

Wow! Glenn Campbell is an awesome Guitarist!

Nice pickin' on "Gentle on My Mind", Glen! R.I.P.

Studio musicians are ALWAYS the best. Leon and Glen, both studio musicians.

We shall never see their like again. Great to have a visual record of their greatness.

I don't believe that Glen has received proper accolades for his AMAZING guitar talent.

As Tony Bennett was famously said to be the "singer's singer" by Sinatra, so these two are "musicians' musicians", like Levon Helm and Garth Hudson of The Band.

Tremendous artistic talent here!

two greats! r.i.p.

Damn. Too good. You put on some Eagles or Zepplin or Garth or Seger and all that stuff and i pick up my guitar and play right along. You put on some Glen or Chet or Eddie or Roy and I just fold my arms over the body of my guitar and smile and listen.

I hope they're jamming somewhere together in a better place now. RIP to both Leon and Glen. For everything they gave us, they certainly deserve that.

Leon just kept on sauntering through music history...Influenced so many...

Wouldn't you just sell your soul to be able to play those solos. Effortless, WOW.

I never heard that 1st song before. When Leon started playing Heartbreak Hotel I thought "That doesn't sound like the song I've heard." It seems as if he made up that arrangement on the spot. Such talent and humility.

Stunning artistry! Hard to believe these are just mortal men - I've been playing for forty years, and I'm not fit to carry their gear...

Glen is a monster player and composer and vocalist

These two go way back. It's a pleasure to see and I wish we could see more.

In my opinion having been around for 66yrs He was seriously an to Some Arguably the best with the Guitar hands down!!!!

Tears of Joy might stain my face...

Cap'n John Hartford would be quite proud.. now he, Glenn and Leon are all gone!RIP lads and thanks for the wonderful music!!

Leon can play anything!!

Incredible! One of my all time favorites :)

Glen and Leon were both under rated, loved both of them...real talent never to be matched. Both started out as session players imagine that😧

Glenn is such an unbelievable guitarist. I myself am a professional player and he blows my mind.

Gentle on that fretboard. Go Glen.

Dem Boyz were part of the “Wrecking Crew Gang” hence every artist and musicians during those days knew they were the ***BEST*** at the instruments they played - PERIOD!!

Leon Russell, the man behind many greats. Glen Campbell, Joe Cocker, Elvis, many others

Easy going talented great musicians Both so missed by their legions of fans around the world.

Two of the very Best RIP GC ,,,,,Mr LR....🎶

two absolute musical artists.sadly gone.who now will fill their shoes.

This is so good! I forgot what a great guitar player Glen was!

A man who owns the song, the instrument, the feel and his place in the band. My God, what a loss.

To Me This Will Always Be "Glens __Signature Song__. And God Bless Mr. John Hartford For Penning It & Mr. Campbell, For Taking It To The Top.

Never realized how great a player Glen was!

Voice of an angel .. and plays like he has 3 hands ...

Of course both Glen and Leon were first call LA studio studs playing on hundreds of sessions from Frank Sinatra to the Beach Boys...and many hits.

Glen Campbell...what an incredible talent !! Leon...self depricating and humble as usual..." Elvis invited me backstage " he said with a note of surprise in his voice... Elvis must have felt honoured to meet Leon...he is the personification of Genius...

I've been sitting at my desk here for the last 2 hours just watching Glen's videos...plain and simple, the guy is amazing! (also watched a Wrecking Crew special on TV the other night...fantastic as well!)

Elvis "how come you wound-up in all those terrible movies"? PRICELESS!!

Nothing but love.

Is there any great music in my entire lifetime that the great Leon Russell wasn't involved with in one way or another? What an amazing man; what an amazing talent. I am SO grateful to Elton John for helping get Leon the long overdue recognition he deserved by getting him inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

It doesn't seem to matter when Glen plays this or who he's with, his music is timeless. Superb.

This is the best version of Gentle on KZfaq and probably anywhere

awesome talent the man is LEGEND god bless you sir glen.

Best version ever.

there is something to be said about God given talent. Many play, practice, not all can play like Glen. Some are born, meant to play.

holy shit, are you kidding this is knocking ....

...and a master on the keyboards.

My Mom loved Glen Campbell and she had one of his first albums, one called "The Amazing Twelve String Guitar of Glen Campbell". Between the two of us, we could have possibly worn the grooves off of the vinyl record. Couldn't believe that a human being's fingers could produce such heavenly sounds.

Glen you are so great! I feel so sad that we are losing such a great talent! You will always be gentle on my mind!

Both amazing artists... I remember my Dad playing this in our kitchen. I would just have woken up and he would make me dance with him. I was a teenager at the time and was not interested now I miss those days.

I was hooked on Leon, in the 70's from hearing him on WBRU, in Providence, R.I. I didn't know his hair went white back in the early 80's. I hope they still hang out! Leon was right about the movies, Elvis made, and Elvis knew that, that's what started the depression and drugs. But we all love those movie's.

Glenn will always be my champion.

WoW!! Never seen these two perform. Loved it.

You Will Be Missed Leon

Two first class players if there ever was two. Amazing talents. both.

these boys go way way back 20 years before this

I feel old and depressed that both of these legends are gone. Saw Glen first in the mid-60's, and Leon many times over the years in various combos in many places. There are no artists like these guys today that I'm aware of. RIP.

MORE! I WANT MORE! This is too short. Go back to the vault and find the rest of it.

Leon the best...Glenn recorded with the Beach boys just for one example. He just was was everybody is a session. But he was with the wrecking crew. RIP gentlemen...

Amo questa canzone!qui si tratta di una grande performance...due leggende...😊😇😇😇😇😇😇😇💘💘💘💘💘💘💘

His picking on this is impeccable.

all the musicians and music lovers that these two have touched.

So much genius on one stage

Rest in Peace Leon, you truly made a difference on this earth. Two of the absolute greatest musician in the World! Thank you for all the great music and so many wonderful memories. :)

timeless!!!!!! im 11 yrs old again.....!!!!!!!

The OG of The Wrecking Crew. The best there ever was and will be.

Campbell’s guitar is mesmerizing. His voice the same. I LOVED his music. Lodie. ☺️

I absolutely love this song! Great great great!

So many stories of the studios during this era in music.. We can only imagine the other outstanding (and hilarious) stories that have passed on with these talented folks.

As a young man (RocknRoller) I was watching one of those shows that feature different stars every week and it was Glens turn. And he decided to play a melody of music and got to the Rock & Roll part well he played and CHANGED my mind about him. Didn't know he could slash Jimi Hendrix without all those tricky gizmos for the electric guitar what a talent. God bless U Glen wherever U are ................

Can you imagine if they never tape this, what a lost it would have been,

Both were GREAT session musicians that expanded out to their own place in the music world.
