GLENN HUGHES: Release Date Set For New Solo CD

February 3, 2006

Legendary vocalist/bassist Glenn Hughes has posted the following message on his official web site:

"Just wanted to let you all know that yesterday all the tracking for the album was completed. We had the final day of string section yesterday. It is a massive piece of work. 15 songs were recorded. I would like you all to know I spent all of last year writing, arranging and preparing these songs. I spent way more time on this album than any other album of my career. I don't think anybody will argue that this is a turning point for me. A few of my real close friends have been to Chad's [Smith, GLENNHUGHES/RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS drummer and producer of Hughes' new CD] to listen and they are saying that this album and the vibe is exactly where I should be headed. I can tell you it is a mature album, and more than ever before I can't wait for you all to hear it. We start mixing mid-March and the album is scheduled to be released May 29th."

As previously reported, Hughes is recording the new album with the aid of Smith and RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS guitarist John Frusciante. Songtitles set to appear on the CD include "Oil and Water", "Frail", "Black Light", "Stepping On" and "The Valiant Denial". Also playing on the set will be guitarist J.J. Marsh, who has appeared on Hughes' last several solo releases.
