Glenn Hughes (ex-DEEP PURPLE, BLACK SABBATH) and friends recorded a new album in the final weeks of 2007. RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS' Chad Smith played drums on the CD, and Luis Carlos Maldonado is one of the guitar players on it. Also, George Nastos, who played on the "Feel" and "Soulfully Live in the City of Angels" albums, is making his return.

Commented Hughes: "Well, well... I have in my hand the master copy of the new album... Yeah, I've already told you how I feel about it. I'm overjoyed, and I honestly can say that I am overcome with great happiness. Writing songs is the center of my life, and to finally hear the finished master of the new work has made me realize how far I've come since that fateful day in December '91. This album is a gift to myself that I want to share with all of you. I will announce the title here and a voice message on my, MySpace page very soon. Also the record company. We are scheduled for a world release party the first week of May."
