The Rods have recorded a comeback album featuring Ronnie on two tracks and will be performing in Norway this August. I’m not aware of any recordings with Rock and Ronnie since the debut Elf album. It’s unfortunate that Ronnie didn’t perform on Rock’s One Night in the Jungle album as originally planned as the album deserved a wider release. I would have much preferred a Feinstein reunion and a follow-up to Third Wish, but it will be interesting to hear new material from The Rods.

Wow! I've seen The Rods...I think they supported Iron Maiden on their Beast On The Road UK Tour back in '82....  |

I saw the Rods way back when they supported Iron Maiden at the Royal Court ,Liverpool for the Beast on the road tour.They were one of the best support acts I have seen,a real powerful trio.

Copy and paste of Dean's message....

Just wanted to let the Forum Members know that Niji has signed the Legendary band The Rods! There is song on the CD called "The Code" with lead vocals from RJD!
This is one of the very last songs Ronnie sang.
CD out in March.
Did you know that a then unknown band called Metallica used to open from The Rods?
