Ghost On The Canvas features all brand new songs written by the likes of Paul Westerberg, Jakob Dylan, Robert Pollard, and Teddy Thompson. In addition, Chris Isaak, Dick Dale, Billy Corgan, Brian Setzer, Rick Nielsen, Roger Manning, and The Dandy Warhols all appear as guests on the LP. Campbell also plans to put on a “valedictory worldwide concert tour” called “The Glen Campbell Goodbye Tour”, with the entire itinerary to be announced shortly.
In the interview with People, Campbell revealed he’s been suffering short-term memory loss for several years. The actual Alzheimer’s diagnosis, though, occurred six months ago. “I still love making music,” Campbell said. “And I still love performing for my fans. I’d like to thank them for sticking with me through thick and thin.”
Ghost On The Canvas hits stores August 30th via Surfdog Records.
