Fantastic footage. After all this time, a priceless momento of the 5 piece Trapeze lineup.

Is the track ‘Lover’ actually ‘Dat’s It’ with Mel’s lead vocal overdubbed?
-
Thank you for the Song Notes.
-
I’m too forward to Glenn’s next solo album over BCC/DD’s.. this is where Glenn is more likely to get the Funk back in!
-
It features some additional songs, plus a new recording of ‘Haunted’ which also features Mel Galley,Dave Holland & Terry Rowley.The master tapes have been supplied by Robin George. The previous release,was sourced from MP3 files, and bootlegged. This new release is the one to get!
-
Apologies, the small print does say Cherry Red Records.
-
My copy isn’t on Cherry Red Records, unless HNE Records are a subsidiary? Further details:HNE1CD212. The master tape is sourced directly from Robin George himself. I’m especially enjoying the Acoustic/Vocal on ‘Loving You’ & ‘Haunted’. The latter is newer version,and a lusher sounding production. Mel Galley,Dave Holland & Terry Rowley are credited as ‘featuring’ on this.

I have the ‘Overcome’ CD. Master tapes provided by Robin George. The re-recording of ‘Haunted’ is a lusher affair. Glenn’s vocals are off the scale, in comparison to the version that’s on the ‘Highlander 2’ soundtrack. The recording features Mel Galley,Terry Rowley and presumably Dave Holland on drums and Dave gets a production credit too. Elsewhere the drum sound dates the material but Glenn’s vocals are superb throughout. ‘Loving You’ just features Robin on Acoustic guitar and Glenn on vocals and sounds very contemporary because of the sparse production. I’m so glad this CD is available. With the forthcoming Trapeze -Lost Sessions Vol 1, this is a good time to plug some gaps in your collection!
-
Well I have the 12 inch single and it sounds like the album mix. The B side has extracts from all the songs on the Phenomena album.
-
I bought the Japanese edition for ‘No Stranger To Love’. These versions of ‘Mistreated’ & ‘Stormbringer’ are still the best G.H interpretations to date. The band don’t overplay either.
-
A standalone live mini CD Boxset from Dallas 73 & Arlington’76 would be a welcome release. The latter set has live versions of ‘Space High’ & ‘L.A Cut Off’, unavailable elsewhere. Dallas ‘73 (I always thought it was ‘72), which previously came out on Reciever Records ‘Live-Way Back To The Bone’ and on the ‘On The Highwire’ 2CD set, the band are totally on fire!

I just want to see the ‘..Vol 1’ come out! I’m interested in all the Trapeze line ups, but for me,Mel Galley was the keeper of the Trapeze flame. Trapeze fans have been waiting patiently for an archive release of this nature. I appreciate Tom Galley’s involvement and quality control should be assured.Along with the forthcoming Robin George/Glenn Hughes set,such material musically plugs a gap in fan’s collections.To see an official release of Glenn’s ‘Unreleased Warner Brothers album’ would be the Cherry on the cake, from this time frame - late 80’s-early 90’s.
-
Can someone clarify Glenn’s alleged statement,that he isn’t singing/playing on the forthcoming Trapeze Lost Tapes Vol 1.
-
I hope these two vinyl sets capitalise on the upsurge of vinyl records. It’s great that 2023 is bringing new/unheard Trapeze music to our ears.
-
Anthology 1970-2007 is especially great for new fans. I would like to see a Volume 2, bringing things up to date.
-
I would like to read a book that focuses on Glenn’s music output. With contemporary reviews. An overview of the tours from 1993 perhaps too? It needn’t be an expensive Coffee Table book.Getting rights for photographs and other related financial strains are undoubtedly obstacles. Is crowdfunding an option?
-
I’ve asked Jerry Bloom and he doesn’t think there would be sufficient demand for such a book. Martin Popoff,whom I emailed said “no”. I hope someone else comes forward!

I saw the show in Frome. I think the arrangement to ‘Mistreated’ with its dynamics,light and shade, made it the highlight of the evening.
-
I would have liked Dallas ‘73 as a standalone release or even doubled up with Arlington ‘76. I bought the expanded Trapeze sets on Cherry Red already.
