Soul Mover
''Soul Mover'' is a studio album by former Deep Purple, Black Sabbath and Trapeze vocalist/bassist Glenn Hughes. It was his tenth solo studio album and was released in 2005 on Frontier, Sanctuary, EMI and Yamaha records. History ''Soul Mover'', as the name might suggest, strays back into more soulful territory than Hughes previous album, 2003's ''Songs in the Key of Rock''. However Hughes' hard rock and funk leanings are still very evident. The album was Hughes’ best-selling solo record to date, but has been since overtaken by its follow-up ''Music for the Divine''. This is the first Hughes album to feature Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith on the entirety of the record (Chad performed on one song on 2003's ''Songs in the Key of Rock''). Smith also co-produced the album with Hughes and Fabrizio Grossi. The album features Hughes’ regular guitarist JJ Marsh, who co-wrote the majority of the songs with Hughes. Other musicians include keyboardist Ed Roth and former Jane ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Mistreated (song)
"Mistreated" is a song by the British rock band Deep Purple taken from their 1974 album ''Burn''. The song was written by the band's guitarist Ritchie Blackmore and new vocalist David Coverdale, who, along with new bassist Glenn Hughes, brought new blues and funk elements to the band. History At live performances Hughes would introduce "Mistreated" as a song that Blackmore had written about two years prior to ''Burn''. Inspired by the Free song "Heartbreaker", the song had been considered for the band's earlier album ''Who Do We Think We Are'', but Ritchie held it back. When work on ''Burn'' started, Coverdale wrote the lyrics to "Mistreated", and it is the only song on ''Burn'' where he sings the lyrics entirely himself. In the booklet of the 30th Anniversary Edition of ''Burn'', Coverdale commented on the recording of the vocals on "Mistreated": "We recorded "Mistreated" from 11pm to 7:30 in the morning. I heard the first playbacks and thought it was terrible. It was so ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
