I'm a big fan of the Clouds cover of "Wichita Lineman".

Cheers, Robert.

Ahh Robert
I haven't heard the Clouds version but your post sprung forth many
songs by Glen Campbell.
I must have only been 12 :-)
The vietnam war was rife and he sang Galveston and in my heart in my
most innocent way I understood there was pain. I just didn't
understand.
Many thanx for the memories.

That's one of my favourite songs! (Those strings, the phone lines in the
background, that smooth velvety Glen Campbell voice.) How'd they go?

"I clean my gun, and dream of Galverston."

Best version I've heard was by Super K. A band featuring
Brad Shepard and Clyde Bramely (amongst many others) who
later went on to the Hoodoo Gurus (and then Clyde left).
Brad did the singing on Galverston.
