Music Street Journal has conducted an interview with vocal legend GLENN HUGHES (ex-DEEP PURPLE, BLACK SABBATH), which has just been published. Here is a excerpt from the chat found here:
Music Street Journal: There have been rumors you might get involved in the remastering of Deep Purple’s Stormbringer (1974).
Glenn Hughes: "I’ve done that. I was in the studio at Abbey Road three months ago to do 'Holy Man' and I did it really quick. I put the board tape up from the 24 track from ‘74 and it sounded so great that I mixed it. I mixed a few more songs. I mixed 'Holy Man', 'You Can’t Do It Right', 'Love Don’t Mean A Thing'. I mixed them in the afternoon. I did a slightly different mix than what you’ve heard already with a little raw vocal, probably more funk on those tracks, more than you probably remember. I’ve added a couple of things on guitar that we didn’t have on the original. And I’ve added a new vocal on 'Hold On' so it’s kind of an interesting mix."
