re: GLENN HUGHES
"This album has all the secret formula of Glenn Hughes.
It is a hybrid of Rock, Funk and Soul. A real honest record.
I believe I have created my own style. I think it's important for me as an artist to deliver records that are honest and that will have longevity."

Soul Mover, as the name might suggest, strays back into more soulful territory than Hughes previous album, 2003's Songs in the Key of Rock.
However Hughes's hard rock and funk leanings are still very evident. The album was Hughes’ best-selling solo record to date, but has been since overtaken by its follow-up Music for the Divine.
This is the first Hughes album to feature Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith on the entirety of the record (Chad performed on one song on 2003's Songs in the Key of Rock).
Smith also co-produced the album with Hughes and Fabrizio Grossi.
The album features Hughes’ regular guitarist JJ Marsh, who co-wrote the majority of the songs with Hughes.
Other musicians include keyboardist Ed Roth and former Jane's Addiction and Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist Dave Navarro, who plays lead guitar on the title track.
A video for the song Soul Mover was recorded and it featured Hughes performing the track with Smith and Navarro in the California desert. This video was included as an enhanced bonus track on all versions of the album and received some airplay on TV music channels including The Amp in the UK.
