Glen Campbell to go out with bang of an album

Glen Campbell has been producing studio magic for decades, but he’s not ready to step away from the industry until recording one final album, which happens to include a slew of talented performers.

From Billboard.com:

Glen Campbell is collaborating with Jakob Dylan, Chris Isaak, Paul Westerberg, Bob Pollard and others on “Ghost on the Canvas,” which is slated to be the veteran artist’s farewell album.

Producer Julian Raymond tells Billboard.com that the album’s basic tracks have been recorded in Los Angeles, with orchestra sessions slated for April 2. Campbell is currently negotiating with several major labels to release the album, which will be supported with a farewell tour. “It’s not your mother’s Glen Campbell,” Raymond says of the project. “He’s playing guitar better than ever, singing and writing better than ever. It’s really going to be a great final statement from him.”

Campbell is still looking for an album deal, so why don’t you crack open that piggy bank and do the guy a favor.
