Although, many in the U.S. may not know former Sword singer Rick Hughes, the Canadian singer is well known in metal circles, so much so that he’s been able to collect some of the cream of the hair metal crop for the super group he’s assembled on his classic The Who cover of “The Real Me”!
Rick Hughes new solo release is the first single from the upcoming album “Redemption”, and he recruited Whitesnake’s Tommy Aldridge, Night Ranger’s Brad Gillis, and the legendary Rudy Sarzo to complete the quartet. Altogether, he has decades of metal dominance, representing Ozzy Osbourne’s band, Thin Lizzy, Quiet Riot, and Dio to record one of The Who’s signature classics.
