The song, written by Jimmy Webb and co-produced by Harry Smith and Restless Heart's Dave Innis, is the band's first new music release in nearly three years.
"This is one of our finest collaborations as a band,"
Innis told Rolling
Stone Country. "Each one of us put our own
personal touch on this track, vocally and musically. Since all of the
Restless Heart guys are such big admirers of Glen, it's nice that we finally
took his suggestion 30 years later and cut a Jimmy Webb song!"
Three decades ago at a show in St. Louis on a Mississippi
riverboat, it was Campbell who originally planted the seed for Restless Heart
to record a Jimmy Webb-penned tune.
"We had some time to relax on the boat before our
performances," recalls Innis. "Glen was telling stories
and at one point he said, 'You guys should cut a Jimmy Webb song.'"
"We were blessed to work with Glen on a number of show
dates throughout the years," says Restless Heart's Larry Stewart. "It is an honor to know one
of the finest talents of our time. In honor of Glen, Restless Heart could
record no greater song than 'Wichita Lineman.'"
Restless Heart's version of "Wichita Lineman" is
available for download at:
