HUGHES/THRALL: Debut Album Remaster Due In November

October 18, 2006

Just ahead of the November release of the newly remastered edition of the classic HUGHES/THRALL album, Glenn Hughes and Pat Thrall have debuted their brand new accompanying web site, www.hughesthrall.com, and their new profile over at MySpace.com. The remaster is now available for pre-order from Amazon.com worldwide, NEH Records in the USA, Play.com in the U.K. and HMV in Japan.

"Hughes Thrall", acknowledged as one of the finest albums of Hughes' career, was released on Boulevard Records in 1982, toppping the U.S. import charts before being issued in the U.K. on Epic in January 1983.

Glenn Hughes and Pat Thrall have been working on the sophomore HUGHES/THRALL album, tentatively due next year. Asked why it has taken so long for a follow-up effort to appear, Hughes told Rockdetector.com earlier in the year, "In truth, we were both [Hughes and guitarist Pat Thrall] fucked up. Let's not try to hide that fact. We made an awesome funk rock record but we just could not follow it up. It's always been there though, people still keep talking about it so obviously, at some point, it would come up again.

"I finally got around to meeting up with Pat again in New York during 2000 and we started writing for a new HUGHES/THRALL album. When the 9/11 disaster happened though in 2001 I just couldn't go to New York after that. Finally Pat relocated to Las Vegas and since then we've been writing again, meeting up and it's happening. We've got 13 incredible, late night, funky, organic jazz rock songs ready. It's very diverse, very intense. Pat has to add some guitar, get them mixed and we're hoping to launch the second stage of HUGHES/THRALL later this year. Actually, we're not going to start shopping this record until September. It's an important one so we need a strong worldwide deal. It has to be the right label."
