Years later, Campbell returned to recording and appearing on television. In the 1990s, people were again interested in his music and career. Personal problems, though, seemed to get as much attention as his career, for example, when Campbell was arrested for drunk driving. His music is still popular with fans, and is part of popular culture.

Kim Campbell, Glen’s wife of 34 years, writes in the sleeve notes for the set: “A new Glen Campbell album coming out in 2017 might seem a bit odd since he hasn’t performed since 2012, and even more odd – if not absolutely amazing – when you consider that he has Alzheimer’s disease.” Glen, who lives in Nashville in the final stages of the disease, surrounded by family and friends, turns 81 on 22 April. I’m reminded of The Wind, Warren Zevon’s 2003 swan song that was recorded after his diagnosis of terminal lung cancer. Like that album, Adios is not a definitive representation of the artist by any stretch of the imagination, but it’s still an admirable piece of work and shows Campbell in fine voice, singing his heart out despite the disease that eats away at his memory. British album certifications – Take That – The Platinum Collection". British Phonographic Industry. But I'm so excited about it because I know he would be excited to share new music with his fans," she says.After being diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, Campbell embarked on a 2011–2012 Farewell Tour. After finishing the tour, he entered the studio in Nashville to record a final album. According to his wife, Kim Campbell, he wanted to preserve "what magic was left," in what would be his final recordings. [3] Glen Campbellwill release his final studio album Adiós on UMe on 9 June. The singer-guitarist, whose unique career has brought him worldwide acclaim and 50 million album sales across more than 50 years, recorded its 12 songs at Station West in Nashville after the Goodbye Tour of 2012, following his diagnosis with Alzheimer’s disease. In 2009, while recording Ghost on the Canvas, it became apparent to legendary singer and guitarist extraordinaire Glen Campbell that he was suffering from what would be officially diagnosed as Alzheimer’s disease. As a result, that album — a critically acclaimed release that featured songs by the likes of Paul Westerberg, Jakob Dylan, and Robert Pollard, among others — was intended to be his farewell album. But after a farewell tour — chronicled in the moving 2014 documentary I’ll Be Me— he managed to eke out another all-new album ( See You There) and his brand new one, Adios, appears to be the real goodbye, as Campbell is in the final stages of the disease.
