Glen Campbell.
I've just seen on the BBC website that Glen Campbell has come out and said he has Alzheimer's disease and is retiring after a tour this
year. If you want to see the Legend then this is your last chance.
I closed the window so I don't have a link but it's easy to find on the Beeb.

I saw him in concert years ago. He played a 12 string acoustic guitar like he had eight fingers. It was astounding!

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Probably one of the greatest guitarist ever in his prime, much over looked in that respect because of his genre. Search for him playing the william
tell overture, it's incredible.
