Country star Glen Campbell will perform a rare club gig in Los Angeles on Aug. 19, the day his new CD of rock ‘n’ roll covers hits stores, his label said Wednesday.

Campbell, 72, will perform at the Troubadour in West Hollywood as part of a promotional schedule for his Capitol Records release “Meet Glen Campbell.”

The album boasts covers of U2’s “All I Want Is You,” Green Day’s “Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)” and the Foo Fighters’ “Times Like These.” It marks Campbell’s first release for Capitol since 1993’s “Somebody Like That.” Since then, he has focused on contemporary Christian, holiday and live albums.
