5 out of 5 stars THE GREATEST MUSIC IN THE HISTORY OF ROCK AND ROLL.......2002-02-28

Glenn Hughes has really outdone himself this time. I guess it just wasn't enough to rock out hard core with Deep Purple, he had to go on and create the rockingest rocking rock and roll and put all others to shame! His brand of rock is so rocking hard that it will roll right over you!! Rock rock rock!! This guy knows how, and he wants to show you by rocking all night long in your CD player or cassette player!! Be prepared to buy new speakers because Glenn Hughes will personally slam a huge rock (and roll) through them and destroy your eardrums too!

5 out of 5 stars The way it is is very, very cool..........2001-07-21

When I first bought this disc, it took while to get used to. Nowadays, I find myself going back to it over and over. I heard a live version of 'You Kill Me' and 'NeverAfter'on an import of Return Of Crystal Karma (ROCK). Man, did that rock. Now I can hear the subtleties of this disc that I missed before. I truly believe that Curse and 'Too Far Gone' are some of Glenn's best songs in recent years. Very good disc!

4 out of 5 stars Glenn Hughes-"the Way It Is.......2001-02-05

Glenn Hughes has always been a favorite of mine. From his days in Trapeze thru Deep Purple and now on into his solo career. The Voice that Glenn Hughes has conveys so much emotion and soul when he sings. On his latest CD The Way It Is, He rocks on from the first title cut,until the end of the CD."You Kill Me" is a perfect neck and neck race between voice and bass that brings the song to a killer finish."Neverafter" is his way of being in the moment and not rushing a song for speed's sake. The man knows he can sing and doesn't have to jabber throughout the songs. His Cover of Hendrix's "Freedom" is A Treat for someone who wonders how Hendix would be jamming if he were still with us.The players on this CD sound like a real band that plays together but has a dynamic voice under the hood that powers it full blast. I love a band that cranks it full blast as much as the next person, but a little goes a long way on "Cursed", when Glenn takes the time to build and maintain the song with a vocal that only need minimal music to adorn it. Glenn Hughes has been rocking the house since the 70's, but I would put "Stoned In The Temple" up against any of the so-called rock on the radio today.So,if you want rock that you can jam to, listen to,or recommend to anyone who loves music played for the listener and not just to keep the band happy, check out "Thw Way It Is" by Glenn Hughes. The man can Saaaaang and he plays when musicians that complement the vocals and when necessary put the pedal to the metal to keep up.

5 out of 5 stars The Best.......2000-11-04

Glenn Hughes recorded many nice albums during the last decade, and I own them all. But Way It Is is really something. The fusion of true hard rock, funk and jazz is, for anyone who has a wide range vision of rock n' roll, a gift from the Voice of Rock. The songs present an amplitude of styles that I could not find yet. It's certainly one of the best albums of the last ten years. Rockers, listen to it and you will find true rock n'roll. Long live GH.
