OF THE BEST, TOGETHER AGAIN!JOE LYNN TURNER
Rough Edge:
What was your thinking going into this CD?Joe Lynn
Turner: Glenn and I have been friends for a long time.HTP was a total team effort between Glenn, myself and the great players on the album.There is one microphone on one side of the room and one
microphone on another side of the room, and there's Glenn and there's me.And I said, "No, no, no.Let's sing on one microphone!"Was that charisma a conscious effort or, again,
was that just something that happened as the project proceeded?Joe Lynn
Turner: You either have charisma or you don't.We, being who we are,
have it naturally.What I mean is that if you think we are charismatic and others do also,
then it comes to us naturally.We do not think about it or have never thought about it.Rough Edge:
What was the writing process like for this record?That is where the process was different.USA radio stations rarely or
never play imports because they want their listeners to be able to hear something on the radio and
go buy it easily.Joe Lynn Turner: Absolutely, yes.Everything is stepping stone.As far as that particular album goes, it was a turning point in Yngwie's career and mine
and many feel it was one of his best albums, me included.Deep Purple, Taylor Dane, Bonnie Tyler, Billy
Joel, Cher, and Michael Bolton.Joe Lynn Turner: Absolutely!As of this interview, Glenn and I are in the final stages of finishing up the second
HTP studio album.It's really turning out great and we will have a few special guests on it.Rough Edge: What was it like recording vocals beside Joe Lynn Turner?Working with Joe is simple.Glenn
Hughes: When I wrote the songs, I had a vision in mind about production values.Rough Edge:
How have your diverse musical experiences contributed to the Hughes Turner Project?What efforts are being made to promote
the new disc in those territories where the album might need a bigger publicity push?Rough Edge: A live CD is due to be released later this year, correct?Tell us what to expect from a live
Hughes Turner Project show.TURNER PROJECT came to be.Thinking in more prosaic terms, both veterans appear to be putting as much in their collaboration as in their solo output, and "HTP 2" is a great album of many layers.What's so special in this SABBATH song, the only one you keep singing?You worked together for the first time back in the early Nineties.How do you decide which song will do better on you solo album and which will benefit from being worked on in HTP framework?GH: Well, I write for each album independently, so I never have confusion about what song is for what album.For example, I have a possible project coming up where I will get to do some Otis Redding songs and other stuff like that.JLT: I really admire Paul, and while it would be great to work with him in some capacity, Glenn and I are already two singers ourselves.It surely grows into psyche with every new spin...JLT: "JLT" is definitely an album with more of my personal involvement than ever before, I wrote a couple tracks solely on my own.But it also helps in that tools of the trade to get point across come more naturally.Glenn, you call the years of your addiction a wasted time but, judging on various bootlegs and demos like those with Geoff Downes, you were writing quality stuff.GH: I wasn't enjoying life like I should have been, and when you aren't enjoying life, you are wasting it.It applies to anyone who has a serious addiction issue.He was closer to Chris than he was to me, but I still knew him and knew about the pain he suffered.Rick Blakemore, one of my cohorts and very close friends in FANDANGO.It is a cover of a classic FANDANGO song.Glenn, you did many covers through the years.Which of the performances you like the best.When I do a cover album I don't get to pick the song, but I put my all into it.Like it was back in TRAPEZE days?GH: I think we are all a bit too old to have it be like back in TRAPEZE days!Was the DEEP PURPLE stint a blessing or a curse?GH: I don't dwell on it because that part of life has already been lived and you can't change it, and I have no regrets for TRAPEZE or DEEP PURPLE.Joe, what does it take to split up very amicable with guys like Blackmore and Yngwie Malmsteen?Glenn, your upcoming DVD and a new CD: what surprises are in them?Men wrote the music and Hughes and Turner wrote the lyrics to what they said had a distinct Russian motif.Speaking at the press conference, Hughes said he enjoyed working with this new kind of music and expected to surprise his fans.Roadrunner Records or its employees.Chatwood, Webber dominate (Slam!Records are gathered from the county clerk and district court
