“Other guitar players could hear what he was doing and go, ‘Oh my gosh, this guy's amazing’”: Alice Cooper says Eddie Van Halen asked him to set up a guitar lesson with Glen Campbell

Glen Campbell and Eddie Van Halen.

In a new interview, Alice Cooper has recalled the time Eddie Van Halen asked him to set up a guitar lesson with songwriter and session ace Glen Campbell.

Campbell is obviously best known for his mammoth country hits – including Rhinestone Cowboy and his recordings of Jimmy Webb’s Wichita Lineman and By the Time I Get to Phoenix – but he was a formidable guitarist, too.
