Hughes is not keeping up with new music
A small town newspaper from Michigan has an interview with Glenn Hughes on the occasion of his gig later this month.
The Enquirer: Matt Hires asks, “what’s the last album you listened to?”
Hughes: I have to be honest with you. I’m listening to my album right now because I’m mastering it.
That’s OK.
I need you to know I’m a fan of other people’s work but I can’t lie to you. I’m sequencing my album this week.
Other than that, I’d probably say outside of my work, the last album I listened to would have been Steely Dan.
Are you keeping up with newer bands?
It’s a difficult question for me because I don’t really know what is going on in the music world other than what I’m doing. I read magazines and I read up on stuff but I don’t really listen to radio.
If somebody said to me, ‘have you checked out this band,’ I’ll go, ‘no,’ and I’ll write it down, and I’ll go home and I will listen to it. But I haven’t heard anything that’s blown my mind in a while.

Unauthorized copying, while sometimes necessary, is never as good as the real thing
Is there anybody in the Music biz that Glenn has not met and is a total friend or even family with???? Geez….
Well, I will be in Kentucky on August 24th, 2 days before my BD, seeing the “Voice of Rock”. I wonder, am I somebody he would say he knows also???? He knows EVERYBODY!
Looking forward to the show and one thing I noticed he didn’t mention. BCC was supposed to be back in action. He made mention in a previous interview that BCC would be his LAST BAND. WTF Glenn? Is it already over? I find it hard to believe you would not make reference to it if it was still a GO.

Keep up the great work. Only very few left, to remind us what music really is..
My regards to Mr. exceptional, Doug Aldridge.
