Music DVD Review: Glenn Hughes - Live In Australia
Published January 30, 2008
Hughes' last two solo albums feature the drumming of Red Hot Chili Peppers' Chad Smith. The two have become great friends and have done several live performances together. The special features disk includes four extraordinary live performances, "Nights In White Satin," "Gettin' Tighter," "Mistreated," and "Don't Let Me Bleed," from a Glenn Hughes concert that took place on July 20, 2006, in Rome, Italy, and featured Smith on the drums. The intensity and chemistry between these two guys was amazing.
The special features disc also included an hour long "Making of Music for the Divine" and "Steppin' On - The 2006 Tour Diaries" documentary that featured Hughes and Smith on the road during their 2006 tour and in the recording studio discussing each track off the new album. Live studio recordings of "Coast To Coast" and "Gettin' Tighter" as well as music videos for "Monkey Man," "This House," and "The Divine" are also included.
After witnessing Hughes performances with Chad Smith at the Rome show, it will be a crime if they don't put out a quality recording of a full show from that tour. In the mean time, make sure you pick up Live In Australia to witness a little soul-funk-rock at its finest.
