Glenn was recently interivewed by Tommy “Hashman” Hash of Ytsejam.com.
“My Music before I joined Deep Purple, all those years ago, when I was a young lad, a teenager, I was very much influenced by Black American music like Steve Wonder, Marvin Gaye, and Wilson Picket – all the great soul singers, it was inherently born into me,” begins Hughes on his influence into the recent musical excursions into R&B territories…

Glenn will be a special guest of Funk/Rock/R&B band, MONKEY BUSINESS on WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 10th, 2008 in Prague, Czech Republic. The gig will take place at the venue, LUCERNA.
Just so it’s clear:
this is NOT a Glenn show, rather he is a special guest and will perform just a couple of songs with the band.
