Does anyone have any more information on the releases due next year? Why the sudden burst of activity (not a knock, he's one of my favourite singers and has done nothing of note in far too long), who's involved in the albums? I see his new solo album is done with Ged Rylands, and I have spoken with Ged on Facebook, and that all sounds very exciting. I'm intrigued with this Diesel project? I know that Jim Kirkpatrick and Robert toured with Bernie Marsden's Box O' Snakes this year, playing material from across Bernie's 40 year career, was hoping Bernie, Jim and Robert would get a band together. I've also hoped for a long time that Robert, Dave Colwell, Rick Wills & Jimmy Copley would get a proper band together, write some new material and play a live set of Foreigner, Bad Company, Jones Gang and Robert/Dave solo material. They all work together so often and seem like good mates, i'm sure material and a live show would come together so naturally from them... not sure why that never happened, especially after the aborted Bad Company "reunion" with these guys (Paul got back in the fold, which stopped the Robert, Dave, Jaz and Simon version), and then when Jones Gang went down the pan... So, if anyone has any info on the Diesel album or any news on Robert in any more detail than the Escape press release, please share :-) Nivhttp://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924798,924798#msg-924798Mon, 20 May 2013 03:08:06 +1000 Phorum 5.2.16 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924798,924898#msg-924898 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924798,924898#msg-924898 MSL NoticeboardSat, 29 Dec 2012 08:46:11 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924798,924865#msg-924865 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924798,924865#msg-924865Most recent thing was a short Rocktopia interview where he talks about being in bands with Bernie Marsden, and having a blues side project with Micky Moody too, and that there should be a new Manfred Mann's Earth Band album out in 2013.
Nothing about Rage Of Angels, Diesel, the re-issues...
I'll let you know if I hear anything!

Please keep me poste if you hear anything.

The song "Company of Strangers" is my favourite Bad Co song ever. He is on Micky Moody's "I Eat Them For Breakfast" album.

I remember him having an official fairly updated website. Have you tried looking for it?]]> Laurent NoticeboardFri, 28 Dec 2012 20:59:44 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924798,924844#msg-924844 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924798,924844#msg-924844
