At 14, Campbell made the significant decision to drop out of school to pursue music full-time. He joined his uncle Dick Bills' band, the Sandia Mountain Boys, where he began to hone his craft. This early experience set the stage for his subsequent success. In 1958, he formed his own group, the Western Wranglers, and later moved to Los Angeles in search of broader opportunities in the music industry. This relocation proved pivotal as Campbell transitioned from performing in local bands to establishing himself as a renowned session guitarist, working with some of the biggest names in the music scene.
