Glen Campbell

After being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s last year, music legend Glen Campbell announced “The Goodbye Tour,” a heartfelt farewell to the music business in support of his 61st studio album, Ghost on the Canvas: a reflection on a stellar career half a century in the making. Marked by collaborations with the likes of  Chris Isaak, Brian Setzer, Billy Corgan, Paul Westerberg, and Jakob Dylan, the album proves the singer-guitarist is still a master of straddling the country/pop divide. Born the dirt-poor son of a sharecropper in ’30s-era Delight, Ark., Campbell arrived in Hollywood in 1960 with “$300 and a lot of hope,” became an in-demand session musician, toured with the Beach Boys during Brian Wilson’s “difficult period,” and made history in 1967 by winning four Grammys in both country and pop categories (“Gentle on My Mind” and “By the Time I Get to Phoenix,” respectively). By 1969, Campbell had established himself as a multi-faceted “countrypolitan” entertainer, hosting  the CBS variety show The Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour, starring alongside John Wayne as Texas Ranger La Boeuf in True Grit, and palling around with Elvis and Sinatra. The recipient of a 2012 Recording Academy Lifetime Achievement Award, Campbell has sold in excess of 45 million albums and is undoubtedly best known for the 1975 megahit “Rhinestone Cowboy.” $39.50-$59.50; 8pm; The Majestic Theatre, 224 E Houston, (210) 226-3333, majesticempire.com; glencampbellmusic.com.
