Still on the Line: Ace Collects Glen Campbell and Jimmy Webb Collaborations, Glen’s “Ghost on the Canvas” Revisited with All-Star Duets

Glen Campbell I Am a Lineman for the County

From the time singer-guitarist Glen Campbell recorded “By the Time I Get to Phoenix” in 1967, he became forever linked with the words and music of Jimmy Layne Webb. Formerly a staff songwriter for Motown’s Jobete Music arm, Webb had placed songs with big names (The Supremes) and lesser-known talents (Danny Day, The Contessas) when he attracted the ear of Soul City Records’ Johnny Rivers. The “Poor Side of Town” and “Memphis, Tennessee” singer was the first to release a version of “Phoenix,” on his 1967 album Changes. Within a year, he…

Touch ‘Em with Love: Highlights from Bobbie Gentry’s “The Girl from Chickasaw County” Coming to CD, LP in August

July 6, 2022 by Joe Marchese | 5 Comments

Bobbie Gentry The Girl from Chickasaw County Highlights

Mississippi-born singer-songwriter Bobbie Gentry reached the pinnacle of success – earning hit singles, winning Grammy Awards, headlining a BBC series of her own, selling out engagements in Las Vegas, and appearing with Johnny Carson – before pulling off music’s ultimate disappearing act. Gentry last performed in public on a television special in 1981 and last appeared in public at the 1982 Academy of Country Music Awards presentation. She was 39. But the music of Bobbie Gentry has never really disappeared, with her debut, self-penned single “Ode to Billie Joe” remaining a radio…

The Big Light: Johnny Cash’s Complete Mercury Albums Reissued in New Box Set and Individual LPs

March 10, 2020 by Joe Marchese | 3 Comments

Johnny Cash is coming to town (again)! When the legendary Man in Black was unceremoniously dropped by his longtime home of Columbia Records in mid-1986 – “the hardest decision I’ve ever had to make in my life,” opined then-label chief Rick Blackburn – he wasn’t yet finished. Mercury Records stepped up to sign Cash, beginning a relationship that lasted for five years and six albums. Now, that fertile 1986-1991 period of rebirth is being revisited by Mercury and UMe in a multi-platform campaign. On April 24, the labels will issue a new…

Glen Campbell joined Capitol Records in 1962, remaining with the label through 1981.

Review: Glen Campbell, “The Legacy [1961-2017]”

June 26, 2019 by Joe Marchese | 5 Comments

Glen Campbell’s career-spanning box set is modestly titled The Legacy, fitting for the unlikely superstar from Delight, Arkansas. While The Legend might have been equally appropriate, Campbell’s legacy is, truly, unlike any other. Throughout an extraordinary seven-decade career encompassing 21 Top 40 Pop hits, 27 Top 10 Country singles, six Top 20 Pop albums, and nine No. 1 Country albums in the United States alone, the artist regularly transcended genre with his honeyed vocals and virtuosic musicianship. Hit songs took Campbell to locales such as Phoenix, Wichita, Galveston, Houston and Manhattan, Kansas,…

Another Sleepy Dusty Delta Day: Bobbie Gentry’s Complete Capitol Masters Collected On New Box Set

Bobbie Gentry Girl from Chickasaw County

Why did Billie Joe McAllister jump off the Tallahatchie Bridge? It’s almost as big a mystery as why Bobbie Gentry vanished from view after 1981.

On September 21, the 8-CD collection The Girl from Chickasaw County: The Complete Capitol Masters will collect all seven of Gentry’s 1967-1971 Capitol Records studio albums plus more than 75 previously unreleased recordings.

Earlier this year, Glen Campbell wished his friends and fans a touching Adios on his sixty-fourth and final studio album. It was the cathartic culmination of six years in which the legendary vocalist bravely brought his struggle with Alzheimer’s to the public eye, embarked on a yearlong Farewell Tour, and recorded his final sessions as heard not only on Adios, but on Ghost on the Canvas, See You There and the soundtrack to the touching documentary Glen Campbell: I’ll Be Me.
