Wow is the only thing I can say about this album. I was a pre-teen in the 1970's when Glen Campbell was probably the most popular and I remember all the songs on this album with a great deal of nostalgia. Interestingly, had you asked me before I bought this CD in Branson, Missouri where I saw Glen Campbell live, I would have told you that his music is old and in the past. His live performance was outstanding and reminded me why the songs on this album were so popular. He's a great guitarist, singer, and performer. All his great hits are on this live album which he played with the South Dakota Symphony - which added another great touch to the music. In fact, this is one of better produced live albums I've heard. A lot of times live albums have too much ambient noise and it just doesn't sound that good. This one sounds great.

Overall, I'd give this album an unqualified thumbs up and to those who remember and liked Glen Campbell and kids, but have gone on to other music now, I'd say go back in the past for some great, nostalgic songs.

Addendum: I notice as I am posting this review there are used copies on sell for nearly $100. I got a SIGNED copy for $20.
