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.

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)

2010: 4th album "Emberteremtő"
2013: 5th album called "Tegyük fel..." which is officially a platinum album in Hungary what makes them one of the most popular rock/metal bands in Hungary
3) A hard rock band from Malmö Sweden, First demo 2002 with 3 tracks, 2003 the second "On The Move". Don't now if the band still exist.
4) A norwegian hard rock band from the eighties. Released three albums:
This Is Just Rock’n’Roll (1983), Running Away (EP 1985) and Breaking Out (1986).
Did support jobs for Motorhead amongst others.
The original line-up was Willy Bendiksen (drums), Eivind Aarset (vocal), Jon Berg (guitar) og Jørun Bøgeberg (bass). Bøgeberg is mainly known for an international audience as Aha's touring bass player from 1990-1994. He also played on the two Aha records East of The Sun West Of The Moon and Memorial Beach.
5) USA Garage Rock 60's
Not much is know about this Painesville teen band. In 1968 they were recruited by a slightly older Painesville musician, Dave Passerallo, to make a record. The Hard Road session at Audio Recording yeilded a strange pop effort with odd psych flourishes as the A-side, "So Hard To Find". The song was written by Onion Rings member Jim Finan, who presumably provided the link to Blue Onion Records. Of more interest to us is the flip side, "You Rub Me the Wrong Way", a Passerallo penned three chord rocker with some blistering fuzz guitar. The Hard Road 45 was initially released on Passerallo's Lemon Lime label but after getting airplay for "It's So Hard Ro Find", Dale Davis' Blue Onion label picked up the record for wider release. An Audio Recording acetate has surfaced pairing "You Rub Me The Wrong Way" with a nice garage ballad, "By The Fire", a song that Passerallo had wrote and recorded with his vocal group the Four Escorts.
6) A Dutch band from the 70's. Originally from Leeuwarden. Making fame with their recording of Unchained Melody, 1975. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
