Hughes guests on The Lizards’ new album

The Lizards Reptilicus Maximus cover art

Glenn Hughes is a guest vocalist on the upcoming album from classic rock band The Lizards The band is featuring another member of the family as well — Bobby Rondinelli. Titled Reptilicus Maximus, the album is due out on Hyperspace Records in September.

Bassist and band leader Randy Pratt talks about Glenn’s contribution:

We did a two-month tour with Glenn Hughes and he came to New York to record four songs on our sixth CD, ‘Against All Odds’. ‘Miracle Man’ is a song that he wrote specifically for The Lizards, and I believe we slay it. He and Mike DiMeo do another one of their over-the-top duets on the closing number on the record.

The Lizards are:

Randy Pratt — bass
Mike DiMeo — vocals, keyboards
Patrick Klein — guitars
Bobby Rondinelli — drums

Thanks to Blabbermouth for the info.

    Would be nice if there was actually a website out there where you can order the CD, instead of just a link to the label’s facebook page (which has no mention of this CD!)

    I saw The Lizards back in 2005. They opened for Molly Hatchet and UFO. The crowd was mostly MH fans, so I don’t recall The Lizards or UFO being too well received. Too bad, as all three bands were really good that night. And Bobby was nice enough to sign a few Rainbow concert videos for me.
