  • On May 12th, 2011 'Deep Purple and Beyond: Scenes from the Life of a Rock Star' will be published. "There are things that I never told anybody until the book", Hughes told FaceCulture about his autobiography. "Let's just say that I disappeared in the 90s for a while. Nobody knew where I was, and I didn't tell anybody. I was basically being another person under another name, being completely isolated. It almost killed me."
    "There is no greater city in the world to go 'dark' than Amsterdam. If you want weird, it's here. And the fact of the matter is that it got so fucking weird that it scared the shit out of me. I went to the edge of the cliff of insanity. Then I had this clarity moment where I said: I can either jump and go insane, or turn back and become the man I am now."

    I've suffered from bad depression twice in my life & I know how u were feeling Glenn at the door of destruction & desperation & when it's over & we look back we wonder how did that shit happen to me & try our very best not to let it ever happen again. So glad u survived it Glenn otherwise we would have missed out on all you're FANTASTIC MUSIC we listen to today. We LOVE u FOREVER Glenn take care of yourself 💜🧡❤🎸

    It's very apparent that Tommy Bolins death has affected him deeply.
    They were best friends and yes, everyone knows about the Karen Ulibarri situation and I think perhaps Glenn feels some guilt for that.
    Cocaine is an awful drug, and it would have impaired his judgement for sure.
    I don't know why Karen went with Glenn as I don't know the circumstances, but I wish Glenn the very best, and I'm glad he came back from the edge.
    RIP Tommy Bolin and Sheila and Bill Hughes.

      Why Karen went with Glenn? He was a "better" i mean more known rock star with loooooots of money. That's just this simple. Sadly money doesn't make people happy, they divorced very soon.

    Alot of us have dealt, or are dealing with, some pretty bad demons. That being said, Medusa by Trapeze is one of the most baddest ass albums on the planet!

Half Hour Joe knows now there is life after death, Rock on Glenn! You are an inspiration! Hope you got rid of that F$#@ Volvo. Amen.

    Lets just say I didn't have the success I had dreamed about and the offers had dried up....so let's just say I was a junkie and got high for 15 years. Then let's just say I bought a bunch of silver jewelry and some funny shades. If you believe it all so far then it's not so much of a stretch of the imagination if we just say "I'm Back and I am Rock and Roll". Apparently. Let's say I'm right about this...

    And he still can't keep a band together for more than two years.. a charitable view would be he's a 'restless spirit', god knows the songs still pour out of him.

    he makes it sound like he had the kind of popularity that someone like Michael Jackson had, wanted to be anonymous? Needed to use a different name? Glenn man, in the 80s and 90s only Purple and Sabbath fans knew who you were...

    • @sex6cult9revolution
      @sex6cult9revolution 4 года назад +6

      I think he means on his scene. Believe me, everyone from the 70's rock scene knew who Glenn Hughes was. And they knew all about his habits.
