VILLAGE PEOPLE

            Glenn Hughes is an American singer who was known as ‘Leatherman’ in the music group Village People from 1977-1996. Hughes joined a music fraternity at Manhattan College in 1969.

            He was interested in motorcycles and responded to an advertisement by Jacques Morali who was seeking ‘macho’ singers and dancers. He and the five other members were given a crash course in dance choreography for live performances. Hughes had a large moustache and wore a leather outfit and became an iconic figure in the disco era. He was named one of People magazine’s ‘Most Beautiful People’ in 1979.

            Village People targeted the disco gay audience during the 1970’s. The group became popular with mainstream music listeners and had hits with Macho Man, In the Navy, and YMCA.  

            Unlike other members of the Village People, Hughes was straight. In 1996, he retired from the Village People and had a New York cabaret act at the end of his life.         

            Hughes was diagnosed with lung cancer; he had been a heavy smoker since he was a teenager. He died aged 50, in 2001. He was interred in his leatherman outfit.

なんと2023年3月に、DEEP PURPLE来日決定。 今日一番の驚きと喜び。 なんといっても福岡公演がある！ 91年93年96年18年と4回見に行ったのだが、まさか次が巡ってくるとは思いもしませんでした。 前回が「THE LONG GOODBYE」だったんで…。 精力的に活動している現在の様子だと、来日も自然の流れでしょうが、もしかしたら最後かも……なあ……。 #deeppurple #thelonggoodbye #ianpaice #iangillan #donairy #rogerglover #simonmcbride #jonlord #ritchieblackmore #stevemorse #davidcoverdale #glennhughes #joelynnturner #joesatriani #tommybolin #rodevans #nicksimper #来日決定 #ディープパープル https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck8eOJnvSqD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In 1973 DEEP PURPLE, the English heavy metal / hard rock pioneers, hired Midlands bassist/vocalist GLENN HUGHES, previously of the funk-rock group Trapeze, to be the new Purple bassist (replacing Roger Glover). Though Hughes stated that he regarded himself more of a rock vocalist than a bassist. He was apparently disinterested in joining Deep Purple until some of the other musicians advocated…
