I'm nuts about Glenn! He's a huge talent! Still rockin' and nailin' those insanely high notes! His abilities are mind-blowing. When he starts singing I ask myself only one question: HOW??? He's on point always! Good bless him. He's a remarkable singer! Never can't get enough of his songs ❤️😍🥰😍💔💐😘😘🤘🤘💞🌹🌹
I saw him on Saturday 21st at Wolverhampton, England 2023 where he is touring the 50th anniversary of Deep Purple's "Burn" album. He is 72 now and there were gasps from the audience when he hits those high notes. I am 63 and was blown away by how he can still do that! The best rock singer I have ever seen and he still looks great.
Another great Choice by Ken. Glenn is One of a kind! I have been following Him since 1974 which at that time I was blessed with the 1972 Album by Trapeze - You are the music were just the band. From another Glenn review I had noted that Glenn breaks the unbelievable barrier toward the end of a song called PUSH which was on Glenn Hughes - Feel album. Ken, Thanks for being true to your trade and a great Singer as you are! On Top of it all, Thanks for picking Glenn!! : )
I love Glen Hughes I've always been a fan , his voice it's like a fine wine it's got better with age , going to see him live in the UK this year , can't wait .
I remember the first time that I heard Glenn. It must have been well over thirty years ago and I wasn't very impressed. I felt like was just a guy who screeched out incredible high notes and had little else to offer. These days I feel that he has become a true legend of the genre. I seek out anything new that he releases and truly appreciate what he delivers as an artist. His growth as a musician, a songwriter, a singer, and an artist has been incredible. Glenn is certainly one of the few "fine wines" in the rock world.
Singing and playing bass is one of the most difficult coordination challenges there is. And he also could, in spite of the excesses, keep his voice usable and on top of that he also has a style of his own. He definetely deserves praise.
I like Hughes in Trapeze, in DP, in Sabbath, or solo. And i admire him because he fight against the addiction, reborn and stay clean. Drug addiction destroy people, families, talents and lifes.
I cannot get enough of Glenn Hughes the man is in his 70es and is singing as good as he ever did if not better. Him and Iggy Pop just seem to never age and have energy I wish I had at 31 lol
I remember my dad telling me about the first time he saw Trapeze back in the day at a small bar somewhere in TX…I remember driving and listening to black cloud with him. Was always blown away by Hughes voice! Watched later performances of Glenn and man the brother still has it!
Never listened to Glenn Hughes much Ken didn't grow up listening to him he has a rocking voice wow he is awesome loving his screams he did back then he is rocking I'm loving his rock voice he is nailing those high notes spot on those screams belting are rocking awesome yes even though he screams a lot he is nailing them he has my vote he rocks he does scream a little to much but he rocks he is awesome Ken 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Cade Evans i worked to Glenn and he is a really fucking great singer no one can sing and play bass like him. He is a blessed guy and after use drugs for a period in his life he stayed more and more powerfull after quit this fucking shit has the same youth of his teen when he sings now. Unbeliveble.
Glenn is just a complete freak of nature and he has just got better through the years it's nuts because you go back on some other singers that are out there even younger than him can't do it no more I won't say names but I know you know who we're talking about great video
Glenn is a straight up phenom and, the funniest thing, I actually hear what you're talking about; his sound got ronder and fuller. Even on the supersonic notes. Which reminds me of Biff Byford, lead singer of Saxon. His voice also have matured and now, in his 70's, it sounds as good as it ever did, but with a fuller, rounder, (as you say) seasoned tone. As always, mr Tamplin, a pleasure to join you on this journey. Stay safe and take care.
LOVE LOVE LOVE Glenn Hughes. One of my fav all time singers. Never was crazy about his shrieking outbursts, but that's just Glenn. I'll cut him some slack there because he has the ultimate rock and blues voice and it's been a large part of the soundtrack of my life, everything from DP, Hughes/Thrall, Black Sabbath, Phenomena, Iommi/Hughes, Black Country Communion, etc etc. The man's back catalog of top tier classic hard rock songs is a library in and of itself. And he sounds as good now as a Senior Citizen as he did way back when in Trapeze and DP, in my opinion. Glenn Hughes is a rock God as far as I'm concerned, and will always have the utmost respect from this humble rock music fanatic. Glad you finally featured him, Ken, not that I ever had any doubt that you would... he is a shining example of how it is actually possible to maintain your singing voice over a very long period of time.
On BCC last album his voice is unbelievably strong, he's beyond the speakers, right there in your room. My fave bit is on Resonator, the song steady has a coda...his voice is pure magic to me
You are good too Mr Ken. I have listened to a lot of your singing. You know what you are doing and not just talk like several others 'vocal coach'. 👍👍👍👍👍
I am the biggest fan of the voice of Rock I like the most his 1980s where he does not remember anything, his work with Phenomena , Tony Iommi, with john norum, the Hughs Thrall project ,brilliant stuff , his low and mid range is a wonderlust. he did more of it lately with the dead daisies , and the result was epic Album , I hope they are bringing back some good stuff again , I loved the Black country Communion stuff , their second Album was amazing , man in the middle , cold , the medusa , and crawl are my favourite tracks , the fused Iommi and hughes Album was an amazing Album it should be 1 of the black Sabbath 80s non Ozzy collection , and shame there was no touring on these amazing collection of songs . all due respect for Mr Coverdale I am big fan as well , I love come taste the band more I consider it a different DP sound and Tommys guitars were absolutely the perfect one for glenn , at the end a kind of out of Context an ADHD request from you Ken , Please, can you compare all Uriah Heep vocalists over the decades when you have time, I don't know where else to request this ?
I agree Glenn is definitely better now than back then. He outclassed Bruce in the Jon Lord performance. Dare I say it but, I personally think Glenn today, is superior to his peers today, from back in the 70s. IE: Gillan, Halford
When I want to make peace with music, I come here to your channel. Always insightful and honest in every analysis. Thanks Ken , greetings from Italy. Btw: saw Glenn live back in 2007. Nothing short of sensational. The Voice.
Glenn Hughes and Paul Rodgers are 2 of the greatest voices in rock, and both have gotten better with age. Glenn's stuff with Black Country Communion is awesome. I love his work on Seventh Star, the Black Sabbath album that was really a Tony Iommi solo album, especially "Heart Like a Wheel" and "In Memory." I've always been an Ian Gillan fan when it comes to Deep Purple, mainly because I've never been a big Coverdale fan, so I'm getting into Glenn's stuff with DP very late. Great video! Would love to hear your take on his BCC stuff as well. I especially like "Man in the Middle."
I believe and iam not a vocal coach, but if by the time you get like glenn to your older years and don't abuse your voice to much hopefully, and you can hold whatever range that might be well done. He's 72 and still rockin great ...I hear guys from helloween, saxon biff 72 , Rob halford 72 still able hold it .....i do believe that ian gillan is starting to struggle now at 78 ...
Glenn is one of the very best, love the guy and almost everything he's done - from Deep Purple, Gary Moore, Trapeze, Black Sabbath, the separate Iommi collabs - legend.
If a god of vocals exists it would be Glenn Hughes. He's the perfect representation of "The Voice Of Rock"! Nice job analysing, you are an amazing singer as well, I used to listen to your album Tamplin, great stuff!
Ken, you're on fleek as ever! Never cease to astonish. The best coach, who ever lived on the planet. Always a huge pleasure to listen and to look!😘😘💞💞🌹💋💔💔💐💐
Great video. Glenn is awesome. Got to see Glenn twice in the last 5 years or so. Seeing him do the Deep Purple set at the Caloundra Music Festival was brilliant! The best part? Watching a bunch of younger kids/teens be absolutely blown away when they opened with "Burn". Massive sound and the kids were like "Whoa! WTF is this" and took off towards the stage. Us circa 50yr olds and our wives got a buzz from that. 😂
The guy is just a freak of nature. What a voice! 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼 Hughes did talk extensively about some bad habits he had in the past, and how he cleaned up his act. Luckily in time, and before he squandered his gift. That would've been a shame. But he prevailed, and he's had one hell of a career and he's still going strong. And in the process surpassing vocalists who entered the scene a decade after he had already made a name for himself.
Thoroughly enjoying your series. I think Glenn has actually gotten better with age. I really enjoyed his work in Black Country Communion. Looks like you're having some fun in a beautiful location. Enjoy some R&R with your family (I'm actually on a vacation right now myself). God bless and rock on 🎸😎👍
There's a live album 'Burning Japan 1994' that has some bonkers live stuff on it. Have seen him live 3 times now and every time just blows me away. Brilliant feel for music, always singing in a different way. Hughes & Thrall was an excellent album too.
Trapeze's 'You Are the Music...We're Just the Band', his '76 soulful solo debut 'Play Me Out', 1982's 'Hughes/Thrall' and 1994's 'Burning Japan Live' (15-song version) are, IMO, the best examples of Glenn on record.
I have learnt that every singer is different and how much that difference shows through days past and by the day, each moment is evolving into a new singer. Each song has it's own characteristics and these can be influenced even by how we feel on a certain day and where our minds are at. Love your videos. Keep it up.
Awesome video Ken and I love your new setting, enjoy! Also, a huge thanks for creating your vocal acadamy! Jumped on your promo and all I can say is Wow, man
Hi Ken, Glenn has used his ‘mid voice’ more on the BCC and Dead Daises ’ eras generally toned down his vocal excesses which artistically has payed dividends. Of course Glenn is about to tour his 50th Anniversary of Burn’ so it will be interesting if he drops the keys and if that affects the power of those songs. My favourite Glenn vocals are ‘Play Me Out’ ‘’It’s About Time’ which are a joy to hear when he plays them Live. Check out Glenn’s ‘Addiction’ release from ‘96.
Hey Ken, not sure if you are going to continue these series (which we love!), but if so I would love you to compare/contrast the lovely Melissa Manchester to her voice years ago and now. She is still going strong at 71 and doing a US tour. I have been a big fan of hers for many years. Although her voice has changed significantly, she uses some really unique vocal techniques on her songs and sounds fabulous. Food for thought. Thanks for all you do!
Glenn has really aged like a fine wine. One of my absolute favorite runs from him is from a rather obscure album he did in collab with Dario Mollo, the song is "Golden One". If you like his raspy strong belted notes you're gonna love this run: ua-cam.com/video/3ONDGxEJcVo/v-deo.html Keep up the great content Ken!
You should really do one of these on Bob Dylan. His changes in vocal approach and ability are fascinating: Early 60: nasal but in tune folk singing Mid 60s: non-nasal pitchy vocals Late 60s: smooth country crooning Mid-70s: His vocal peak as a rock singer…lots of unhealthy pulling of chest voice that burned him out for the rest of his career 80s and 90s: rough Early 2000s: rough Tom Waits esque rasp Late 2000s: American songbook crooning with good pitch. Making the most of his damaged instrument Finding usable clips is likely tough, but I would like to see Ken’s take on his journey
Definitly agree hes only gotten better, and I cant name one single singer other than him I could say that. Over that 40-50 year timespan
Saw him in concert May 9, 2024 in Regensburg, Germany. He was great. A very good concert.
I was first row and he hands me over one of his Plectrums.
man glenn Hughes is a genius. . . a lot of hardcore training
I'm nuts about Glenn! He's a huge talent! Still rockin' and nailin' those insanely high notes! His abilities are mind-blowing. When he starts singing I ask myself only one question: HOW??? He's on point always! Good bless him. He's a remarkable singer! Never can't get enough of his songs ❤️😍🥰😍💔💐😘😘🤘🤘💞🌹🌹
I saw him on Saturday 21st at Wolverhampton, England 2023 where he is touring the 50th anniversary of Deep Purple's "Burn" album. He is 72 now and there were gasps from the audience when he hits those high notes. I am 63 and was blown away by how he can still do that! The best rock singer I have ever seen and he still looks great.
I saw him in Southampton near same time - mind blowing performance 😀
Saw Glenn gigging back at the end of 2018. Still had the most amazing voice.
Another great Choice by Ken. Glenn is One of a kind! I have been following Him since 1974 which at that time I was blessed with the 1972 Album by Trapeze - You are the music were just the band.
From another Glenn review I had noted that Glenn breaks the unbelievable barrier toward the end of a song called PUSH which was on Glenn Hughes - Feel album.
Ken, Thanks for being true to your trade and a great Singer as you are! On Top of it all, Thanks for picking Glenn!! : )
Been a fan of GLENN from the start , Trapeze to NOW I got most of his music . Been a long ride ROCK ON GLENN !
I love Glen Hughes I've always been a fan , his voice it's like a fine wine it's got better with age , going to see him live in the UK this year , can't wait .

He definetely deserves praise.
Nice ! love me some GH! Incredible voice and range...Medusa is just wow...thanks Tamplin
I like Hughes in Trapeze, in DP, in Sabbath, or solo. And i admire him because he fight against the addiction, reborn and stay clean. Drug addiction destroy people, families, talents and lifes.
Glenn Hugues : the voice of rock!!!
Glenn is like stainless steel. No oxidation
The Voice Of Rock. Legendary in my opinion
I cannot get enough of Glenn Hughes the man is in his 70es and is singing as good as he ever did if not better. Him and Iggy Pop just seem to never age and have energy I wish I had at 31 lol
Glenn Hughes:LEGEND! No more needs be said! WAY above we mere mortal singers! \m/
Mr. Glenn "The Voice Of Rock" Hughes 🎤 🔥 🤘
I remember my dad telling me about the first time he saw Trapeze back in the day at a small bar somewhere in TX…I remember driving and listening to black cloud with him. Was always blown away by Hughes voice! Watched later performances of Glenn and man the brother still has it!
Ken. In my humble opinion, Glenn is a phenomenon, a force of nature! Huge talent! There must be something genetic about that!!
Glenn Hughes's voice is like an exquisite wine. Over the years it gets better and doesn't turn to vinegar!
Glenn Hughes and David Coverdale on Deep Purple Burn album...what a classic!
It’s mind-blowing that he’s still sounds as great today as he did way back when. Sadly that isn’t true for many classic rock singers.
Such a huge inspiration, been working on my singing since around 18 now 31 and I still got ways to go, but he shows I still have time to be better!
Never listened to Glenn Hughes much Ken didn't grow up listening to him he has a rocking voice wow he is awesome loving his screams he did back then he is rocking I'm loving his rock voice he is nailing those high notes spot on those screams belting are rocking awesome yes even though he screams a lot he is nailing them he has my vote he rocks he does scream a little to much but he rocks he is awesome Ken 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Glenn is one of the greats, Cade!
He sure is definitely ken
Cade Evans i worked to Glenn and he is a really fucking great singer no one can sing and play bass like him. He is a blessed guy and after use drugs for a period in his life he stayed more and more powerfull after quit this fucking shit has the same youth of his teen when he sings now. Unbeliveble.
All I have to say is wow what a voice. And I wanna go to the beach. Thanks again Ken.
Glenn Hughes is a huge inspiration! I love his voice
Work with Glenn Hughes was and it will be always in my soul for the rest of my Life. It was magic for me.
yahhh baby! the best of all time!
Glenn Hughes my favorite musician for many years. I love his vocal and the way he plays the bass guitar! He is definitely a genius!
What a player and what a singer, Ivan! Glenn is a powerhouse!
Yesss!
Glenn is a beast who can just wail its like the older he gets the more fierce he gets
Glenn is just a complete freak of nature and he has just got better through the years it's nuts because you go back on some other singers that are out there even younger than him can't do it no more I won't say names but I know you know who we're talking about great video
Glenn is the best pure vocalist that purple ever had. In my opinion.
Glenn is a straight up phenom and, the funniest thing, I actually hear what you're talking about; his sound got ronder and fuller. Even on the supersonic notes. Which reminds me of Biff Byford, lead singer of Saxon. His voice also have matured and now, in his 70's, it sounds as good as it ever did, but with a fuller, rounder, (as you say) seasoned tone.

Love Glenn Hughes!! If you haven't heard their latest album, you must hear The Dead Daisies _Holy Ground._ Everything on that album is just fire!
You are good too Mr Ken. I have listened to a lot of your singing. You know what you are doing and not just talk like several others 'vocal coach'. 👍👍👍👍👍
I am the biggest fan of the voice of Rock I like the most his 1980s where he does not remember anything, his work with Phenomena , Tony Iommi, with john norum, the Hughs Thrall project ,brilliant stuff , his low and mid range is a wonderlust. he did more of it lately with the dead daisies , and the result was epic Album , I hope they are bringing back some good stuff again , I loved the Black country Communion stuff , their second Album was amazing , man in the middle , cold , the medusa , and crawl are my favourite tracks , the fused Iommi and hughes Album was an amazing Album it should be 1 of the black Sabbath 80s non Ozzy collection , and shame there was no touring on these amazing collection of songs .
all due respect for Mr Coverdale I am big fan as well , I love come taste the band more I consider it a different DP sound and Tommys guitars were absolutely the perfect one for glenn , at the end a kind of out of Context an ADHD request from you Ken , Please, can you compare all Uriah Heep vocalists over the decades when you have time, I don't know where else to request this ?
Wow! It's such a natural voice coming out of Glenn's throat! And I couldn't wait to hear you, Ken singing like Glenn :) Awesome!
I agree Glenn is definitely better now than back then.
He outclassed Bruce in the Jon Lord performance.
Dare I say it but, I personally think Glenn today, is superior to his peers today, from back in the 70s. IE: Gillan, Halford
First t ime hearing him
What a treat to hear him for the first time, Tammy! Glenn is an awesome vocalist!
Lol
When I want to make peace with music, I come here to your channel. Always insightful and honest in every analysis. Thanks Ken , greetings from Italy. Btw: saw Glenn live back in 2007. Nothing short of sensational. The Voice.

Let's freaking gooo! I love Glenn to death, he's my absolute favorite singer (and you're not so bad yourself, Ken! Much love!)
Ken, great video. I agree 100% regarding Glenn Hughes’ voice. I think he’s better now than ever. Keep up the great work 👍🏻
Hey Ken! Glenn ranks up there with some of the best. Awesome singer. His days with DEEP PURPLE are legendary. 💜😎
Wow. You did Glenn. Thank you
He is the best singer of Rock history.
Mr legend Glenn Hughes is in my personal top 5 best singers of all time
Awesome and very beautiful background! 😍
Jay xx :)

One of the greatest and still rocks, Mr. Glenn Hughes. I would love to see him now with Dead Daisies
I love Glenn in Trapeze in Black Sabbath :)
Glenn is one of the very best, love the guy and almost everything he's done - from Deep Purple, Gary Moore, Trapeze, Black Sabbath, the separate Iommi collabs - legend.
latter years holding down the bass as well . fantastic
just awesome!
Всем Добра! Хьюз это Бомба с запалом Мировых звезд! Video 👍Thank you Ken!!!!!!!!!! 💪🤘
SO SHWEEEETTT...much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO.[the music worldwide}
and sooo cool..love the place and great job on Glenn
I think he sounded great when he sang for Black Sabbath especially the song I’m no stranger to love.
If a god of vocals exists it would be Glenn Hughes. He's the perfect representation of "The Voice Of Rock"! Nice job analysing, you are an amazing singer as well, I used to listen to your album Tamplin, great stuff!
Ken, you're on fleek as ever! Never cease to astonish. The best coach, who ever lived on the planet. Always a huge pleasure to listen and to look!😘😘💞💞🌹💋💔💔💐💐
PassagGGio(=passage).Ken,you pronounced as a single G.I write it triple to simple the pronounciation,making it easier.
That was *beautiful* man. I agree, he's even *better* 😍 LOVE!
He is good 😁
I like his mature voice even more.
Great video. Glenn is awesome. Got to see Glenn twice in the last 5 years or so. Seeing him do the Deep Purple set at the Caloundra Music Festival was brilliant! The best part? Watching a bunch of younger kids/teens be absolutely blown away when they opened with "Burn". Massive sound and the kids were like "Whoa! WTF is this" and took off towards the stage. Us circa 50yr olds and our wives got a buzz from that. 😂
Ken doing well at his island palace!! 😁👍Lovin it!
The guy is just a freak of nature. What a voice! 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼
Hughes did talk extensively about some bad habits he had in the past, and how he cleaned up his act. Luckily in time, and before he squandered his gift. That would've been a shame.
But he prevailed, and he's had one hell of a career and he's still going strong. And in the process surpassing vocalists who entered the scene a decade after he had already made a name for himself.
his Sabbath work is great
Also turns out you had a session with my baby bro, says he still uses some of your warm ups. thanks brother appreciate your work
This series is great Sir, you point out things about singers that make us the wishful singers really appreciate the art.
Also nice background
Thoroughly enjoying your series. I think Glenn has actually gotten better with age. I really enjoyed his work in Black Country Communion. Looks like you're having some fun in a beautiful location. Enjoy some R&R with your family (I'm actually on a vacation right now myself). God bless and rock on 🎸😎👍
YEEEEEEESSSSS! KEN, YOU ARE A GOD!
Thanks Jacob but there is only one God and I am not he :-)
There's a live album 'Burning Japan 1994' that has some bonkers live stuff on it. Have seen him live 3 times now and every time just blows me away. Brilliant feel for music, always singing in a different way. Hughes & Thrall was an excellent album too.
ABSOLUTELY Right !!!
Burning Japan is one helluva rock album!
Trapeze's 'You Are the Music...We're Just the Band', his '76 soulful solo debut 'Play Me Out', 1982's 'Hughes/Thrall' and 1994's 'Burning Japan Live' (15-song version) are, IMO, the best examples of Glenn on record.
Play Me Out is an amazing album
I'm loving your videos Ken & learning so much about the singers I grew up with. Thanks so much for doing this, you rock! :)
Love this series, Ken!
Nice video, Mr. Tamplin. Glenn Hughes is like a second Ian Gillan who can also play bass
Nice view. I thought you were going to talk about the leather guy from YMCA. lol
Also his songwriting and bass playing are insanely good
Great video! I do wish you would do some Glenn in Black Country Communion. He does a bang-up job there is well, of course!
Where is the resort you are staying??? Gorgeous!!
Hualtuco, Mexico
I have learnt that every singer is different and how much that difference shows through days past and by the day, each moment is evolving into a new singer. Each song has it's own characteristics and these can be influenced even by how we feel on a certain day and where our minds are at. Love your videos. Keep it up.
Awesome video Ken and I love your new setting, enjoy! Also, a huge thanks for creating your vocal acadamy! Jumped on your promo and all I can say is Wow, man
Hi Ken, Glenn has used his ‘mid voice’ more on the BCC and Dead Daises ’ eras generally toned down his vocal excesses which artistically has payed dividends. Of course Glenn is about to tour his 50th Anniversary of Burn’ so it will be interesting if he drops the keys and if that affects the power of those songs. My favourite Glenn vocals are ‘Play Me Out’ ‘’It’s About Time’ which are a joy to hear when he plays them Live. Check out Glenn’s ‘Addiction’ release from ‘96.
He got better!
Hey Ken, not sure if you are going to continue these series (which we love!), but if so I would love you to compare/contrast the lovely Melissa Manchester to her voice years ago and now. She is still going strong at 71 and doing a US tour. I have been a big fan of hers for many years. Although her voice has changed significantly, she uses some really unique vocal techniques on her songs and sounds fabulous. Food for thought. Thanks for all you do!
Saw him with Sabbath and he embarrassed himself. Seen him solo was awesome. SOBRIETY helps
How many people remember that Glenn Hughes is featured on electronic dance band KLF's song "What Time Is Love ?" :)
Great video 🤟🏻🤟🏻
So everyone talks about how good he sounds...go back and listen to the first album self titled Trapeze....its his best work, AMAZING !!!
Glenn has really aged like a fine wine. One of my absolute favorite runs from him is from a rather obscure album he did in collab with Dario Mollo, the song is "Golden One". If you like his raspy strong belted notes you're gonna love this run: ua-cam.com/video/3ONDGxEJcVo/v-deo.html Keep up the great content Ken!
Great analysis. You need to hear Glenn’s little known Christmas album- some great Glenn with a dash of self indulgence.
I remember he was in a band called Trapeze before deep purple. burn , storm bringer are essential hard rock albums 👍🤘great video
The most amazing thing about Glenn is not his voice, but the fact that he is still alive given the amount of substance abuse he " enjoyed".
his voice is like a fine wine. that burn song his screaming up to A5 if im not mistaken
You should really do one of these on Bob Dylan. His changes in vocal approach and ability are fascinating:
Early 60: nasal but in tune folk singing
Mid 60s: non-nasal pitchy vocals
Late 60s: smooth country crooning
Mid-70s: His vocal peak as a rock singer…lots of unhealthy pulling of chest voice that burned him out for the rest of his career
80s and 90s: rough
Early 2000s: rough Tom Waits esque rasp
Late 2000s: American songbook crooning with good pitch. Making the most of his damaged instrument
Finding usable clips is likely tough, but I would like to see Ken’s take on his journey
