Glen Campbell - Ghost on the Canvas reviewed by Terry Kelly

AMERICAN musical icon Glen Campbell announced to the world recently that he has Alzheimer's disease.

But although Ghost on the Canvas is being billed as his final studio album, Campbell is on top form on what is his finest release in years.

Emotional opener A Better Place sets the tone for a collection of songs looking back at life's joys and sorrows, while the title track is a real heart-tugging number about "looking at soul."

Campbell's voice remains a thing of beauty throughout an album tied together by subtle instrumental breaks.

Highlights are too many to mention on what is a fitting finale to a great musical career.

    Heard about this the other day , and he said, he's doing one last tour as well.
    Wish him well with that.
