Glenn Hughes Dispels Black Country Communion Rumor

(Classic Rock) Glenn Hughes says Black Country Communion's reunion record will be the "big rock album" that the world needs. He'll start work next month with guitarist Joe Bonamassa, keyboardist Derek Sherinian, drummer Jason Bonham and producer Kevin Shirley, with the follow-up to 2012's Afterglow due to arrive early next year.

The sessions come five years after the supergroup imploded when vocalist-bassist Hughes and guitarist Bonamassa disagreed over balancing their commitments with their solo careers.

But Hughes tells Metalized: "Joe and I are very friendly. We never ever fell out. Joe is a solo artist, as I am now. The fans on the internet thought we were fighting - we never fought. When Joe and I had dinner in March in LA, we hugged each other and said, 'We're friends, we're family.' I'm a big fan of Joe as a person and a musician."

The disagreement arose when Hughes pushed for more live shows, despite Bonamassa's position that he didn't want to suspend his solo work for too long. Read more here.
