The collaboration between Glen Campbell and Jimmy Webb consistently paid dividends for both men; and “Galveston” was and is a great example of this, being one of the biggest hits of 1969, and with good reason.

And I definitely agree with Craig R., in that Jimmy Webb could really teach today’s songwriters a thing or two…and then some.

More powerful proof that a war song can be well-written and wonderfully performed if approached correctly.

I was almost five years old when this song was a hit. Next to “King Of Road” and “Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head”, this songs is the oldest in my head. My uncle was shot in Vietnam in 1969 and thsi song was played a great deal in our home. I think the song is great in many ways. Jimmy Webb could teach today’s songwriters a great deal.
