All these photos would make a nice addition to the Photo Gallery and support the next million or so clicks. However, there are far too many to upload them. So instead I'll post some links.
The APA Picturedesk has a good set of photos of Glenn's career, be it Kings of Chaos, interviews, BCC, with Andy Fraser at Wembley and Purple days. Just skip the other Hughes listed there.

With thanks to Barry Goldstein, here we get some superb eyecatcher from Long Beach February 1976. Maybe the last pix of the US leg of the final tour.

Some excellent portraits taken by Ash Newell.
This is what Glenn says about the photographerQuoteI had heard the news in L.A. about a photographer whose work did the talking. His name? Ash Newell, and quite few of my famous friends had already had photo shoots with him.
Ash came over to my house for a morning shoot and when I met him at the door I immediately knew that he meant business but more importantly, his character, wit and sensitivity made it one of the easiest sessions that I’ve ever done. It’s never easy doing a photo session at my home as my five dogs are always up to something, but Ash was a champion with my fur kids. Within 2 minutes of setting up, Ash took a portrait of me that captured my soul. I always look forward to working with Ash again…..ANYTIME….ANYPLACE!!

Besides Didi Zill, it was Fin Costello who gave us the most wonderful pix of the DP MK III/IV era.
