GLENN HUGHES Village People
GLENN HUGHES
18 July 1950 - 4 March 2001
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.

Lançado em 28 de setembro de 2004, The 1996 DEP Sessions é um álbum em parceria de Tony Iommi e Glenn Hughes. O disco traz faixas originalmente gravadas em 1996, que haviam sido vazadas e circulavam em formato bootleg sob o nome "Eighth Star". As partes de bateria, originalmente gravadas por Dave Holland, foram regravadas por Jimmy Copley após a condenação de Holland por tentativa de estupro em 2003. Iommi decidiu refazer as faixas para evitar qualquer associação do álbum com um criminoso sexual.

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).

Lançado em 21 de outubro de 1990, Up from the Ashes é o álbum solo de estreia de Don Dokken. Com faixas como "Mirror Mirror", "Stay" e "When Some Nights" no tracklist, o álbum foi originalmente planejado para ser um lançamento da banda Dokken com uma nova formação. No entanto, devido a um processo judicial envolvendo os antigos membros da banda, ele acabou sendo lançado em nome de Don Dokken. Com uma recepção positiva, o álbum alcançou a 50ª posição na parada Billboard 200.
Qual sua favorita desse disco?
