ROAD

There are at least six band with this name. 1) The US rock band from 1972 Which included the bassist from the Jimi Hendrix Experience: Noel Redding. Road was sort of a B-list supergroup, pairing Noel Redding (Jimi Hendrix Experience) with guitarist Rod Richards (formerly of Rare Earth) and drummer Leslie Sampson. The group's self-titled album ends up being little more than warmed-up post-Hendrix hard rock, heavy on the wah pedal. Richards actually turns in some fine, if not particularly original, performances on guitar, and Redding proves he couldn't write good songs if his career depended on it (clearly "She's So Fine" and "Little Miss Strange" were his high points). In true '70s hard rock form, the album drags a bit on side two during the obligatory drum solo on "Friends" and especially during Redding's ham-fisted bass "solo" on the unnecessarily epic "Road." Almost redeemed by Richards' guitar work, check this out only if you have a serious jones for '70s hard rock and/or wah-wah excess. 1 I'm Trying 6:28 2 I'm Going Down to the Country 2:39 3 Mushroom Man 4:12 4 Man Dressed in Red 7:13 5 Space Ship Earth 3:08 6 Friends 6:50 7 Road 9:37 2) The Hungarian band formed in 2004. Their first album was called "Nem kell más", the song with the same title has became their first popular hit. They had many performances with other bands together, for example Depresszió and Insane in Petőfi Csarnok. Road was invited as guest by many already popular rock bands like Tankcsapda and Superbutt. In 2005 they recorded a music video based on the song "Nem kell más". (Don't Need Anything Else) 03/13/2006: Released their second album "Második harapás".
