Glenn Hughes studio portrait.

This isn't just because of what he brought to the band – new ideas, soul and that voice – but because of the way he's curated that legacy ever since, regularly taking his Classic Deep Purple Live show on the road, spreading the word to old fans and new. In fact, he's doing it right now in Europe, with US shows to follow in September.
