Glenn & Coverdale at Classic Rock awards

My all time favourites...

glenn hughes of whitesnake

great to see them both together though

Yep, GLENN presented him with the "Best Band of the Year" award. Whitesnake also picked up the
"DVD Of The Year" award.

And for those fashion lovers out there GLENN's wearing one of his new Junker Designs outfits

Here's one other pic with Ronnie James Dio.

You can read more about the awards show over at the Classic Rock Magazine website.

Thanks, for posting this great picture!

Yes, you're right, Hiawatha.
That's David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes of Whitesnake.

(Doesn't anybody ever do their homework, and check their facts?)

I LOVE THAT PICTURE OF MY 2 FAVORITE PURPLE BOYS

Looks like I'll be making a new coffee mug. Heh, heh, heh.

Right after I use a brown "magic marker" to get rid of that blond frosting job,
that somebody recently talked DC into having done. Didn't he learn anything,
from that previous blond "Robert Plant" fashion statement error?
Luckily Glenn did.

So what Whitesnake DVD was this award for?
And how come our boy didn't get a DVD award, too?
Wasn't there some Deep Purple MK3 DVD up for honors?

Meanwhile, I hope that Glenn had a good chance to tell DC
that there are numerous MK3 fans who would love a reunion concert.
.........and there's one ax murderer who will kidnap them both,
and sing her version of YKOM non-stop until they agree
to get together to compose some snappy tunes for a new album.
(Not mentioning any names here; this person will remain nameless.)

'Ol David's looks seem to be losing the battle with Father Time.....

'Ol David's looks seem to be losing the battle with Father Time.....

I was trying to think of a nice way to say that...Thanks !!

The guy looks pretty much like an old Florida lifeguard

You guys are a rough crowd! LOL. That's just what happens when you don't die!

More power to em, makes me feel great to see them out there. I was pretty shocked to see Robin Trower on the Living Out of Time DVD, and then I got to thinking, man, this is FANTASTIC that these guys are still out there tearing it up. Can't stay young forever, even though we get a picture in our mind about how they're supposed to look for us.

Glenn has definitely held his age better than the others, I give him that.

That was great seeing that picture, I spent many a night with my headphones on, pretending I was DC until the cool part of Burn hit, then I would pretend I was Glenn....nah, I couldn't even pretend to sing like that!! LOL

The older the violin, the sweeter the music!

Dio's vocals in the rainbow days was almost perfect!

Coverdale is a wonderfull singer and performer!

But... I guess Glenn is THE MAN when it comes to the voice!

Quote from Gustavo Martins

But... I guess Glenn is THE MAN when it comes to the voice!

And looks, style, taste in clothes, and basicaly everything. He is by far ahead of the whole bunch.

Thanks to Michael Moore for these snaps of GLENN giving his speech just prior to presenting the award to
David Coverdale, hugging DC and DC giving his "thank you" speech.

Also, Jeff Beck met up with GLENN during the awards show and here they are together

Top quality but surely some of the feckers have to go bald!

Mike, your photographs are unbelievable.

GH and DC hugging each other.....beyond priceless.

What incredible roads these two guys have travelled since they first met,

"when they were ONLY five years old."

What new adventures in music, we fans might hope for.........

Thank you so much

It was good to know that Glenn had a chance to meet and talk to Jeff Beck who is a long time hero for Glenn.

Great pics!!!its so good to see them back together again! This is my first message so please forgive me if i do anything wrong! I went to see Glenn with my dad(johnnyboyuk)and my sister(emmauk)in Northhampton!It was great to finally meet him!He is a great singer and is so very talented on the bass guitar!

The only thing you did wrong Kelly, was waiting too long before joining us here at this great website

David Coverdale has commented on last week's Classic Rock Roll of Honour event, which took place on November 6th in London. Whitesnake was honored with the "Band of the Year" and "Best DVD" awards at the show, which was organized by Classic Rock magazine.

Commented Coverdale:

Quote

"I must admit that I was somewhat nervous, but, I had the best support with my Missus, my daughter, and my best friend sitting with me, and of course, me ol' mate Lord Glenneth of Cannock in attendance.

My U.K. promoter Andy Copping was the show's MC and was doing a fine job moving it along quickly. The first award for 'Best DVD' came pretty soon and was accompanied by serious 'whooping' at our table, as you can imagine and to be honest, I didn't have any speeches prepared. I just 'winged' it and thanked the readers of Classic Rock, you lot [the fans], the band (along with Senor Marco, of course). Short and sweet, I believe.

A little later Andy invited Glenn up on the stage and it was then I thought, 'Aye Aye...we may be getting a twofer.' Glenn launched into some of his memories from our very first meeting and it all started to feel a little overwhelming emotionally. After all, I was sitting next to my dearest friend, Tony Z, whose office I was in when I got the call telling me my life was about to change and I was to be the new singer with Deep Purple. So... Mr. Emotional took the stage and I found it difficult to articulate... I believe 'choked' is the expression... Apart from anything else, you lot who have supported me in the U.K. thro' thick and thin should know that to receive an award (never mind two) in your home country, where the press has been, to say the least 'unkind,' was beyond a treat and a memory I will treasure.

It was also grand to see so many players I've known for years but lost touch with... Brian May and Roger Taylor, Alice, Chris Squire, the Maidens (I was interviewed by Bruce D. a few days later for BBC radio!). Ronnie D. (yes, we do go back a fair ways).

Jeff Beck was on form, as always. The Answer was there too, and Mickey the bass player had interviewed me that morning... It was nice to meet Roadstar who got 'Best New Band'. It was a pleasure to see Scott Gorham after so long, and, of course, Mrs. Lynott, who was sparkling. All in all a rarefied atmosphere...a cracking good night."
