There were two men called Glenn Hughes: first - of THE VILLAGE PEOPLE and died. Another played DEEP PURPLE and BLACK SABBATH and is still alive!
Shouldn't we add a disambiguation page for both Hugheses? Bombofin 17:11, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
I thought (as per the blooklet included with the CD) that it was Rudy Sarzo that played on Whitesnake's Slip of the Tongue album. As a matter of fact, I saw a poster from Slip of the Tongue once with Coverdale, Steve Vai, Aldridge and Rudy Sarzo in it -- but no Glenn Hughes. -- Pinnecco 12:05, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Glenn Hughes never played with Whitesnake. Rumour has it that he and David Coverdale absolutely hate each other, a situation that appears to have been extant since they were both in Deep Purple. Apparently, they never got along.-- MarshallStack 22:54, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
Glenn sang backing vocals on 3 songs on Slip Of The Tongue

There is no truth to the rumour (that I've never heard) that Glenn and David dislike oneanother. They meet at least once a year and are quite good friends, Glenn has never spoken ill of David in public and vice-versa. Glenn did indeed to backing vocals on SOTT, however he's pretty low down in the mix.

Glenn recently commented on various social media channels (in response to a DP MKIII reunion) that Coverdale is the only member of Deep Purple that has stuck with him through thick and thin. — Preceding

Hughes played very few live dates with Black Sabbath in early 1986. Apparently he played a disastrous gig in Detroit where he literally froze onstage (due to stage fright, going onstage without a bass, or drugs, depending on who you talk to) and much of the vocals were "seconded" by then-keyboardist Geoff Nicholls. I had tickets to see this lineup in Kalamazoo, Michigan but it was around this time that Tony Iommi fired Hughes and the date was not rescheduled.
Hughes has stated that he never wanted to be a part of Black Sabbath. He has said "I was into the Tony Iommi solo project, but not Black Sabbath...it's like James Brown singing in Metallica..."-- MarshallStack 22:54, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
Have either of the "Phenomena" projects been re-released on CD? I never heard the second one, which also featured Glenn's Sabbath replacement Ray Gillen and (I think) Asia bassist/vocalist John Wetton, but I had the first one in 1985 and really liked it.
WARM UP GIG IN BELGIUM [May 06, 2006] Prior to his appearance at the Bospop Festival on July 8th, Glenn will be playing a warm up show on Thursday July 6th at 'Spirit of '66', a renowned music club in Verviers, Belgium. Please be aware that this date has been added specifically as a warm up show for the festival. It is not the start of the Music For The Divine though it will be a full length show with some new material. The atmosphere will be relaxed, intimate, and it will present a perfect opportunity to try out some of the new material before taking the stage at Bospop. (by S. Koenig) For sure, I'll be there...:-)
By reading Hughes biographies on his official sites and even English Wikipedia page on Cannock, it seems Cannock is the town he was born in. Old version of English Wikipedia stated the same and indicated Penkridge as Hughes real surname (but I haven't heard about it in other places). French Wikipedia states Penkridge is Hughes real surname. Who knows the truth? -- Furyo Mori 22:17, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
Further to the discussion on Glenns birth place Cannock is indeed his birthplace which is in staffordshire Uk some miles from Wolverhampton central England. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sutty1964 ( talk • contribs) 07:15, 9 April 2007 (UTC).
One of the most distinguished musicians around has a measle page where it is written like a post-mortum blessing and his biography is over the edge, which i had to dual up and all of the sudden his talk page is total joke? What is going on? Why Project editors aren't working here?
Any Glen Hughes bio should mention his involvement with the band 'Boys Club' which also featured Marc Bonilla on guitar and the recently diseased former Emerson Lake and Palmer keyboard wiz Keith Emerson. OMM — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.92.148.18 ( talk) 17:50, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
