Though Glen Campbell's Alzheimer's disease has progressed
too far for him to remain on tour, the veteran singer is planning a followup to
his 2011 album Ghost on the Canvas, which he had intended to be his last recorded
work.
According to RJ Cubarrubia at
Rolling Stone, the 77-year-old
Campbell will
release See You There on August 6th on Surfdog Records. The new album features
reimagined versions of hits like "Wichita Lineman," "By the Time
I Get to Phoenix," "Rhinestone Cowboy" and "Gentle on My
Mind," and was recorded by Julian Raymond during the same sessions that
yielded songs for Ghost on the Canvas.
Campbell
released that album in August 2011, after announcing in June that he had been
diagnosed with Alzheimer's. "I do get confused," he told Rolling
Stone that year. "I don't even look at anything anymore, except what's
going on right now. I just thank God he's given me a second chance."
