I relate to Glen in that he’s such a versitle axe-slinger that he can take any gig and own it. I didn’t list a fraction of his resume but tried to hit the “big-name icons”. He’s played on over 150 albums and a third of them were either solo or his own bands including L.A. Blues Authority, The Hughes - Turner Project and Hughes/Thrall. He currently suppliments his work with Black Country Communion by guesting with The Slam (Little Angel) and other European groups.

Glen had a very rough bout of cocain addiction in the early eighties that almost killed him and sidelined his career for years due to ill-health. That he was able to clean himself up and come back better than ever is remarkable ... he turns 62 years-old in August and inspires old sons like me.
