CD Reviews

Glenn 'voice of rock' Hughes DVD a must for ROCK fans!
Thin Timmy | New Orleans, La. | 09/10/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Glenn Hughes has always had one of the most original

and greatest voices in rock but has mostly been

ignored in the USA by critics and radio. Hughes is

one of the classic hard rockers like UFO, Thin LIzzy,

Y&T, AC/DC that are still around because of die hard

fans of "real rock" not MTV or NU metal crap that is

out there today. His music and songwriting is brilliant

and of course 'the voice' like no other. This DVD has it

all from Trapeze, Deep Purple and his solo material. The

footage is not the greatest video but filmed in a small

studio with limited fans it's raw and feels live! I did

notice that some overdubbing must have been done because

some singing and playing isn't on time but who cares! I

think this is a must for any Hughes or "real rock" fan

out there who wants great rock n roll."
Must have for Hughes Fans

"It appears that there are several versions of this in release and the version that I originally purchased and reviewed has since disappeared so I thought I'd re-post for those who are wondering about this CD/DVD set.



That original release had quite a lot of critisim, and some unfavorable reviews, which I really didn't understand, especially considering all the garbage that IS out there masquerading as concert DVDs.



I bought what seems to be the same as this - the version that has 3 discs; 2 CDs and a DVD. The video is good, not great, and certainly not "filmed with a camera-phone". Though it does have a little too much "arty-farty" visuals for my taste. I've never been a fan of what I call stutter-step video (where it looks like a strobe is on the band) and would rather have straight-up video. Maybe that's what some others are critizing as well, but, to me, that's a small complaint. The audio, on the other hand, whether stereo or 5.1, is AWSOME.



The band is great (the singer from Quiet Riot AND one of Santana's singers from the 70s do background vocals on some songs!!!) and Glenn's voice is as powerful as ever. And, as others mention, the Chili Peppers's drummer, Chad Smith, is outstanding!!!



The only thing is, never having been a big Trapeze fan, I could have done with more Hughes solo songs and less Trapeze.



And, from reading some reviews of the other versions, it seems that another major complaint is that it is filmed in a really small place and everyone's sitting on rugs on the floor. But heck......it's an L.A. FAN CLUB show!!!! It's supposed to be intimate!!! While I agree it's not the best place to film a DVD, it's still good and I would love to have been there!!!



Overall, while I agree it could have been better, I really like it and would recommend it to ANY fan of Glenn Hughes. If it was cheaper I'd say don't believe the naysayers and check it out for yourself, but it is pretty pricey in these days of $12-15 DVDs!!"

"This CD / DVD set is full of Glen's memorable songs, medusa, seafull.coast to coast,etc,It's soulful and loud. Just like I want it to be. Glen sings his heart out and jj marsh with chad smith (Chili Peppers)add a heavy and funky drum and soulful guitar.If you are a Glen fan you'll want to add this to your collection"
