The album includes Glen’s versions of Green Day’s “Good Riddance (Time of Your Life),” John Lennon’s “Grow Old With Me” and two songs by Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, “Angel Dream” and “Walls (Circus).” Several rockers have guest slots on the album. “I really like all of the songs and I had a great time recording them,” says Glen, best known for crossover hits like “Wichita Lineman,” “Rhinestone Cowboy” and others. “While I didn’t write these songs, this sounds like a Glen Campbell album, and that’s important to me.
