Voodoo Hill — Waterfall

Voodoo Hill, an on-and-off project of Glenn Hughes and Italian guitarist and producer Dario Mollo, will be releasing their third album Waterfall on October 16 via Frontiers Records.

Mollo comments on the album:

It was right in the middle of this creative spring that Serafino of Frontiers called me to see whether I wanted to finally work on a third Voodoo Hill album after all these years. He said Glenn Hughes was available in principle, so the next thing I did was to choose the 11 songs which I thought suited the project the best. In comparison to the previous albums, I wanted to have Glenn more involved in the artistic decisions, so I sent him the songs before the final mixes in order to have his advices on the final result. That was a precious process that brought substantial changes, for instance on “Last Door”, where I literally changed the entire guitar riff to make it work better with the vocal melodies. In the end the song was basically rewritten and dramatically improved. It was a fabulous creative process, which I am truly confident will last more than a bunch of listening sessions and will offer a lot of enjoyment to all those will want to follow Voodoo Hill in this exciting musical venture.

    so Glenn finally back in the saddle again working with European musicians,never been high of these band.The Italian guy one of those virtouso instrumental guitar guy,who sounds like every one else there with not much of identity.Only my opinion of course.

    Very good news indeed! The previous 2 Voodoo Hill albums are excellent. Great guitar by Dario Mollo, and great hard rock / metal singing by Glenn Hughes. Very glad I discovered them the first time around about 10 years ago. Happy that they are working together again.

    Return to form oh my god sounds really good, I always loved the first two voodoo hill albums, touch of . Listen to Atmosphere if you can, it has a better sound than BCC. Guy can sing guys a -great guitar player, a kind of European sound I suppose. This is my favourite GH.

    This is years later I know now, but does anyone know if Glenn wrote the lyrics to this great album, or was it Dario? Discogs and liner notes don’t mention it…thanks.
