Different Stages – The Best of Glenn Hughes is a compilation album by former Deep Purple, Black Sabbath and Trapeze vocalist/ bassist Glenn Hughes. The album was released in 2002 on SPV records.

## Overview

Different Stages is an overview of Glenn Hughes career during the nineties and the start of the 21st century. Hughes re-established his solo career in 1992 after kicking the drug habits that marred his career in the eighties.

The two CD compilation features twenty songs from Hughes’ solo career between 1994’s Burning Japan Live and 2001’s Building The Machine.

Although the album does not feature any songs from albums with his past bands, it does contain live solo versions of songs Hughes originally recorded with Deep Purple, Trapeze, Black Sabbath and Hughes/Thrall.

All the material on the album has been previously released.
