Title: What guitar solo's or prominent parts did Glen Campbell play?
Post by: Day Tripper on February 11, 2008, 08:55:57 PM
 I hear a lot of debate on what Glen did or didn't play on. Also, the fact that Brian Wilson had multiple guitarists who often doubled each others part makes it more confusing. I have heard Glen say he played the part on Help Me Rhonda - anyone know the facts?

Glen played on the 1/8/65 session for "Help Me Ronda". Dunno about "Rhonda" - check out c-man's truly excellent site.

I think Glen's best contributions were on Pet Sounds where he would be playing more subtle stuff.  Some of my favorite guitar work of his is on songs you'd barely know there's guitar.

somewhere he talks about how he played the intro riff on "Dance Dance Dance" wrong, but Brian liked it better that way. I assume that's his solo too... very rhythmic.
