(hennemusic) "There's no mistakes here," says Black Country Communion bassist/vocalist Glenn Hughes. "I believe in synchronicity. You may call it fate
mumbo jumbo
but I call it 'in time.'"That's how Hughes sums up the formation of the UK's latest rock supergroup, which also includes blues-rock guitarist/vocalist Joe Bonamassa, drummer Jason Bonham (Led Zeppelin), and keyboardist Derek Sherinian (Dream Theater).
BCC came together in the UK Midlands, already a place with some staggering rock n roll heritage to live up to. "From the Midlands," Glenn explains, "you have four pretty huge bands: [Deep] Purple, [Led] Zeppelin, [Judas] Priest and Trapeze." (Ed. Note: think he forgot Black Sabbath on that list.) "I don't know what's in the water," Hughes continues. "I know this for a fact: we're all blue collar-raised some are more middle-class than others, but we pretty much come from a blue collared background." more on this story
