History [link]

Road was formed in 1970, after Redding left Fat Mattress and Richards left Rare Earth. The band released their self-titled album in 1972, shortly before disbanding. 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 in the 90s.
