"Rhinestone Cowboy" is song written by Larry Weiss. First recorded by its author, it was released on his 20th Century Records album Black and Blue Suite in 1974. Weiss's version was also released as a single; although it received adult contemporary radio airplay, it was not a Top 40 hit. Subsequently Glen Campbell recorded a version that topped the Billboard Hot 100 in September 1975. It has also been covered by Soul Asylum, Belle and Sebastian, Charley Pride, White Town, DJ Z-Trip & DJ P and Radiohead.
