Artist
The Hughes Turner Project (HTP) was a musical collaboration formed in 2001 by bassist/vocalist Glenn Hughes (formerly of Deep Purple, Trapeze, and Black Sabbath) and vocalist Joe Lynn Turner (formerly of Deep Purple, Rainbow, and Yngwie Malmsteen). Longtime friends Glenn Hughes and Joe Lynn Turner initially planned to release an album together in 1989, writing some demos, but nothing was released from these sessions. In 2000, Hughes toured Japan with Turner, followed by joint appearances during the Voices of Classic Rock tour in 2001. During this time, they decided to start a new collaboration. The duo released their first album, simply titled HTP, in February 2002. The album featured Hughes’ regular guitarist, JJ Marsh, who contributed to much of the songwriting. Drummer Shane Galaas and keyboardist Vince DiCola also contributed, along with guest guitarists John Sykes, Paul Gilbert, and Akira Kajiyama. The follow-up album, HTP 2, was released in September 2003 and was stylistically similar to the first record. After concluding their 2004 tour, the pair decided to put the Hughes Turner Project on an indefinite hiatus to focus more on their solo careers.
