Notes:
– Rage is actually the continuation or maybe the natural progression of the 1970s Hard Rock band Nutz who were active since 1973.
– Supported Rory Gallagher on his 1981 UK tour and one year later Uriah Heep for their ‘Conquest’ tour. The also provided support to Meat Loaf’s UK tour in 1983.
– Just before the release of their third and final album, Rage released the curious 7″ “So You Want to Be a Rock ‘n’ Roll Star” (Carrere, 1982) under the name Spitfire
– Reformed in 2004 for a memorial one-off gig for drummer John Mylett who tragically died in a car accident in 1984 in Ibiza, Spain. The gig took place on November 28th at Fogherty’s Club in Liverpool
