I Got It Covered Space High Crazy album... then in the end I'll tell you...
Glenn is another one of those I care about a lot. Forget about a book - a beautiful autobiography, anyway.
The tragicomic stories are countless, a totally insane life.
This one is funny. CHRISTMAS LUNCH 1976. Glenn Hughes is 24 years old, he's "king of the world"... mainly, he's completely out of his mind.
He says he's getting married, and the LUNCH is at his future in-laws'. A typical American Midwest family, husband, wife, five kids, and Thor, the dog.
Glenn lives among "rivers of alcohol, miles of drugs, and hundreds of groupies." Especially COCAINE.
The night before, he was already at his future in-laws' house, who kindly reserved a guesthouse for him.
It's tough to make it to the next day... he snorts a mountain of cocaine intending to destroy himself and sleep until the next day... avoiding all those phobias and paranoia that relentlessly plague him every day.
However, he wakes up in the middle of the night feeling like “shit”… “What’s that smell, fuck?” Then he realizes… he shit himself… or to be precise, in his future father-in-law’s bathrobe…
In the dead of night, he goes out into the garden, digs a hole, and buries the shit-filled bathrobe. It seemed perfect.
The LUNCH goes smoothly, which is a pleasure… then Thor shows up...
“Come here, puppy, show daddy what you have in your mouth”…
Proudly, Thor drops the bundle into his owner’s hands… it was the unearthed bathrobe…
