OAC Top 30 - Week 29

Wichita Lineman – Glen Campbell

Campbell’s recording of another of his many Jimmy Webb-penned monster hits was a definitive moment for this celebrated country singer and television & movie entertainer. In 1968, the song won Academy of Country Music Awards Song of The Year and made Campbell CMA Entertainer of The Year. The song has since lent its beautiful melody and moving lyrics to over 50 recordings by country, pop and R&B artists such as Ray Charles.
