In 1967 John Hartford wrote and released this song, Gentle on My Mind. A year later it was covered by Glen Campbell and became a massive hit. It made Hartford more money than he could have ever dreamed of. Instead of buying a bunch of cars and stuff, he moved to LA, bought a house for cash, and realized he was never going to have to work for a major label, ever. So he spent the rest of his life releasing some of the best “ Americana” music that has ever been recorded. Passed away jin his early 60’s but left an absolute treasure trove of a legacy.
