Larry Weiss wrote and recorded "Rhinestone Cowboy" in 1974, and it appeared on his 20th Century Records album Black and Blue Suite. Neither that version, nor a cover by Neil Diamond made much of an impression on audiences (although Diamond`s version did garner adult contemporary airplay).

In late 1974, Campbell heard the song on the radio and, during a tour of Australia decided to learn the song. Soon after his return to the United States, Campbell went to Al Coury`s office at Capitol Records, where he was approached about "a great new song" -- "Rhinestone Cowboy."[1]

Several music writers noted that Campbell identified with the subject matter of "Rhinestone Cowboy" — survival and making it, particularly when the chips are down — very strongly. As Steven Thomas Erlewine of All Music Guide put it, the song is about a veteran artist "who`s aware that he`s more than paid his dues during his career ... but is still surviving, and someday, he`ll shine just like a rhinestone cowboy.
