    The initially spectacular '60s orchestration eventually begins to wear, but the Witchita Lineman does imbue already good tracks like Tom Petty's 'Walls' and Travis' 'sing' with a genuine sense of grandeur. [22/29 Aug 2008, p.122]

    Glen Campbell's voice is an indelible part of the soundtrack of my youth. And this album captures that essence once again and evoked emotions in me that left me absolutely blown away. Somehow he manages to turn these songs into his own. Great orchestrations, great songwriting, and great vocal interpretation make for an album that brings back memories. It's as though I was listening to a Glen Campbell album from thirty years ago. I'm so glad they chose NOT to reinvent something campy and inauthentic, but rather tried for a sound that is familiar and new at the same time.… Full Review »

    The album stands as a tribute not only to Campbell's timeless talent but also to the songwriters and producers Raymond & Willing. Great stuff.
