Got this on right now. 1st track is awesome. Who are these guys? Just a bunch a trio of dudes that been in some other great bands. 1 album and that's that. Road was an American hard rock band that formed in Los Angeles, California in 1970. Comprising bassist/vocalist Noel Redding (previously of The Jimi Hendrix Experience and Fat Mattress), guitarist/vocalist Rod Richards (formerly of Rare Earth) and drummer/vocalist Leslie Sampson, the band released one album, Road, in 1972. The band is no relation to the Dutch band Road active at the same time with "Never Leave Me Lonely" 1971. Road was formed in 1970, after Redding left Fat Mattress and Richards left Rare Earth. The band recorded their self-titled album at the Record Plant Studios in Los Angeles, California in 1972, the album was released later in the year before the group disbanded. In the brief time they were together, Redding and Sampson participated in the jam sessions that resulted in Randy California's 1972 Kapt. Kopter and the (Fabulous) Twirly Birds album. Following Road, Redding and Sampson formed The Noel Redding Band, while Richards went on to a solo career. Sampson also joined Stray Dog, played in The Gas in the early 80s and Sally Barker And The Rhythm and The Pirates in the 90s.
Another Rare Gem. Listened to the whole thing and loved it. I picture World B Free having a copy of this in his vast and eclectic collection. Universe was an English band who went to Norway. Some way along their travels their van broke down in front of a music freak's house. The guy took the band in, fed them, and gave them shelter for the night. The band recorded a jam session as a private pressing for this guy. Colours found it and reissued the recording.
all that acid rock was slowing my production down. now I'm bopping along crushing a TDL. All admin until lunch.
It was a joke. Theme of what we're listening to...? In a different but yet same genre...? These things need to be explained to you, Serious Sammy? Lighten up Francis.
Aaaannnnndddd back to the Music. Saw these two these two this weekend in an old refurbished venue. Great way to top off a great day that included a great surf.
