The Trapeze gig got Hughes noticed by Ritchie Blackmore when Purple lost both Gillan and Glover at the same moment.Hughes stepped into the bass slot, as well as co-occupying the lead singer duties, along with David Coverdale, on that dude's first assignment. His first band 'Trapeze' is essential to any Hard Roc/Metal fan.just as pivotal as Zep and Sab in the early formation of 'The Metals'.If you, like me, are BIG on the Zep and Sab releases, then you most definitely need, at minimum, Trapeze - Medusa (1970).You will LOVE IT. Mule/Allman Bros.īut, I gotta tell ya, I'm all about the vintage Glenn Hughes material.This bad ass mo-fo is also one, old-ass mo-fo.He's been in the game makin' Rock tunes ever since honeys been wearin' Sasoons.Actually, way 'fore that. I'm listening to 'One Last Soul' right now.Sorat diggin' it.Pretty much commercial fare with this one track.The other tunes seem much more up my alley.I'll try and give some attention to the Bonamassa skill set with those YT spotlights on his geetar playing.I've been hearing his name quite a bit in terms of top-notch bluemen.I hear his name tossed about with the likes of Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks from Govt. Having said that, the group also features Jason Bonham on drums, and Derek Sherinian (Dream Theater) on keyboards. Even if you don't like 12-bar blues, you will be amazed at his playing. If you go the route of Blues Deluxe, one of the first ones that pop up is from 2007. Search his name and add Blues Deluxe, Mountain Time, Royal Albert Hall, Sloe Gin, or Just Got Paid.

YouTube is full of high quality videos of his live performances, thanks to his very liberal taping policy. That is something you can decide for yourself.
He is primarily a blues rock guitarist, singer, song writer. I've seen very little mention of Bonamassa here on TRF, though there are a couple of fans I've seen singing his praises.
And while Glenn is the "Voice of Rock" and Kevin is an exceptional producer/engineer (including his work with Rush) the name people should be mentioning is Joe Bonamassa, the guitarist and lead singer on a few of the CD's tracks. One thing I notice is people are mentioning only Glenn Hughes and Kevin Shirley. I pre-ordered the CD and got it in the mail last Saturday, a few days before the official release.
