»Resonate« isn't exactly the new »Stormbringer«, but let's be honest, not even the most devoted fans expected that from 'The Voice of Rock' anyway. Still, it's a seriously solid record that, with its passionate mix of hard rock, funk and…

Glenn Hughes proved in Salzburg, in impressive fashion, that the years haven't caught up with his vocal cords one bit, and that his big soul remains unshakably devoted to funk, blues and classic rock.

It was high time for a new official live release from Hughes, following the unforgettable "Burning Japan – Live" (1994). "Soulfully Live In The City Of Angels" came out alongside the double "live" CD

It's incredible how much this great musician has given us over his career, starting with Trapeze (for quick orientation: that's where former Judas Priest drummer Dave Holland and guitarist Mel Galley also played, who crossed paths with…

One of the greats of his trade is back with us again. And his new musical style is really an old outfit in disguise, a return to his hard rock roots. Just listen to the chorus of opener In My Blood. A sonic spectrum filled to the last…
