This is Jimmy Webb on his fat behind performing live on 'Later With Jools Holland' 'Wichita Lineman' in 1998. He really does make a bloody meal of this song.Give me Glen's version anytime!!

When you take a great Jimmy Webb song and puts Glen Campbells' great voice to it, the result is a masterpiece. While Glen can outsing Jimmy any day, Webb still does a nice job with this great song that he wrote..

Thanks for the post, miles, negative commentary & all. Have you ever heard Burt Bacharach do "his" stuff? I think the composer should be cut some slack - he may have heard Glen, in this case, in his head as he wrote it.

This man is a genius. Milestoneexpress, thanks so much for posting this. I have never gotten to hear Jimmy doing this song himself. I would like to dedicate my version of this song to this video in particular.

Very nicely piano-arranged.I don't know this guy(sorry...) but i like this song. I first heard the original in 82 (long after it was done!)

I love this beautiful song. Last night I heard James Taylor perform this as only he can at the Mann Music Center in Philly. It was sp exquisitely performed by James and his Band of Legends it brought tears to my eyes. I so hope he records it so we can all enjoy it for "all time"

This is actually a hard song to sing! There is a version of Jimmy singing MacArthur park and he's perfect. maybe he had an off day with his voice on this show date.

Just because you can write a song sure as hell don't mean that you can sing. This guy sucks. Momma should have aborted.
