Advantages: Classic songs sung beautifully, great instrumentalists and orchestra Disadvantages: For me there really are none!
some quite stunning guitar playing by George Doering.
When "Meet GlenCampbell" was released, the track most played to publicise it was Green Day's "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)" and within the framework of this album you can see why - it takes a rock song and turns it into something full of true melody, orchestration and crystal clear tenor vocal. This is a great taster to what this album has and I really like how the song has been given new life here. Campbell's guitar playing can be heard clearly and if you were unaware of Green Day's existence you would be hard pushed to know of its origins in rock music.
The final track on the album is Campbell's interpretation of John Lennon's "Grow Old With Me" and while not one of my favourite songs I appreciate Campbell's interpretation of the song, and is a fitting end to this project ...
Advantages: Fantastic Scenery, Lots Of Wildlife Disadvantages: The Midges, Difficult To Get To
purchased by the Forestry Commission and from this date onwards conservation and restoration of the Forest has been the main objective. In 1994 The Glen was designated a Caledonian Forest Reserve, and in 2001, as a direct result of the conservation work that had taken place, Glen Affric was finally accepted as a National Treasure, and it was then given the status of National Nature Reserve.
FACILITIES IN THE GLEN
This is the wild wilderness of the Scottish Highlands so don't expect a great deal of facilities here. There are however several Car Parks within the Glen, and the two largest Car Parks at the Dog Falls and at the side of Loch Beinn a' Mheadhoin both have Public Toilets with disabled facilities as well as Picnic Tables where you can enjoy a snack in a fantastic setting.

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Glen Affric
Advantages: Unique, original, mysterious and deeply heartfelt. Disadvantages: No decent DVD exists as of yet. Oh, and all that "Worst Film Ever" stuff.
these films on their own terms (and I have been as guilty of the Smug as anyone).
Glen Or Glenda is perhaps the quintessential Edward D. Wood Jnr film. More so than Plan 9 From Outer Space, even, Glen Or Glenda seems to have spilled undiluted from Wood's mind onto the screen, with no compromise, no concessions to any "audience demand" standing in the way of the man's vision.
The film tells of both Glen (played by Wood), a closet transvestite (although he does wander the streets in female apparel as "Glenda") and Alan, soon to become Anne following a sex-change operation. The secondary narrative does perhaps stand as SOMETHING of a concession to the studio's demands (Ed was hired to make an exploitation picture called I Changed My Sex, not the deeply personal I Wear Women's Clothing fever-dream that resulted), but the bulk ...
