Say What Again Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Any fans on here? With them being Scottish, I'm pretty sure there must be at least one. I've just stumbled upon them this week and am really liking the stuff there is on on YouTube. It's kind of a bizarre route for me to take to find them. I've always liked Joni Mitchell and was getting YouTube clips for a mate when i found their cover of 'This Flight Tonight'. Very different from Joni's obviously but I like it. Anyone care to point me in the direction of an album worth getting? Some of the 'shops' have loads and I don't want to 'buy' all of them just yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest sparrieheid Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Dunno about their albums but I know they still tour. I'll ask Lee their drummer for any info next time he's in my local. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Juan Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I was in a pub a few years ago and Dan McCafferty was playing a few numbers on his guitar, ended up having a blether with him and getting totally smashed with him fir the rest of the night. Was a top bloke and had some good tales to tell of when the band were pretty big in America, like Guns n Roses going along to most of their gigs before GnR made it big.

grumpyjambo Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 http://www.ents24.com/web/artist/3237/Nazareth.html Good live band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackal Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 They played in the Liquid rooms in February. Released a new album called the news. Lots of good albums, Malice in wonderland is one of my favourites. Have a look here for tour dates and stuff. http://www.nazarethdirect.co.uk/ they tour all the time it seems. the Stevie Agnew band plays in the Blind poet . He is Pete Agnews son but sounds like McCafferty when he does some Naz covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Guns n Roses covered one of their songs on that covers album they did. It was Hair of the Dog and the Album was the Spaghetti Incident http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qarSpuJ6SE0 A less than perfect Live performance by Nazareth is here I saw them in Glasgow in the late 90s they rocked, seriously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corrie Jambo Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 The are playing at the new Alhamhambra Theatre Dunfermline (the opening night) on Saturday 7/6 doors open 7pm and I am looking forward to seeing them again. Tickets are priced at ?17.50. They are a great live band and inspired bands like Guns 'n' Roses and AC/DC. I saw them at the Odeon on Clerk Street in March 1980 where they were supported by Saxon and they were brilliant. Great songs like Love Hurts, Razamanaz, Hair of the Dog, Telegram, My White Bicycle and This Flight Tonight will all get blasted tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say What Again Posted June 9, 2008 Author Share Posted June 9, 2008 Cheers for all the pointers guys. I've surprised myself by how much I've taken to them so quickly. Even the '75 cover of Love Hurts (the year I was born) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
