Robert Hart - Vocals. / Jim Kirkpatrick - Guitars, backing vocals, additional keyboards, percussion. / Jimmy Copley - Drums. / Pat Davey - Bass. Plus: Adam Wakeman - Keyboards. Steve Overland - Backing vocals, additional guitars on Coming Home. Alisdair McKenzie - Horns on Brand New Day. Make way for a brand new British Rock Band that features some of the best musicians in today's rock scene. With lead vocals from the great Robert Hart (Solo / Bad Company / Manfred Mann's Earth Band) and guitars from FM's very own Jim Kirkpatrick, this is a match made in heaven as they combine their song writing skills and musicianship to come up with this fantastic debut by Diesel. Diesel plays solid traditional rock in the manner of Bad Company, the sort of music that has firm roots in the classic vein of British hard Rock with a blues element. Accompanied by Jim Copley (Manfred Man's Earth Band, Go West, and Paul Rodgers) and Pat Davey (Seven) who provide the solid rhythm backbone of the band, this quartet can give you great songs and first rate melodies all day long. It is great to see that the guest list includes Adam Wakeman (Black Sabbath and Snakecharmer) and Steve Overland (Solo artist, Shadowman and FM), rounded off with the mixing skills of Tommy Hansen. From "Fortune Favours the Brave" to "Brand New Day" we are presented with delight after delight as they effortlessly give us an array of classic rock tunes.

A Great AOR / Classic Rock CD
DIESEL'S first CD (Into the fire) and If you like Bad Company or FM you will love this, Robert Hart (vocals) had a stint with Bad co. awhile back and sounds great, Jim Kirkpatrick who plays with FM plays some fine lead guitar, Steve Overland also appears on some backing vocals and guitar too, but the whole band do a great job.This is a well produced CD with a good mix of songs and it really belongs in every AOR/Rock fans collection.(Highly Recommended)
