They turned 'Love Hurts' into a rock anthem and kept touring for decades.
For their range, listen to the heavy 'Hair of the Dog' and the aching 'Love Hurts'. That's Nazareth in two songs.
Nazareth's sound was a mix of hard rock, blues, and folk that clicked on their 1973 album 'Razamanaz'. That record gave them 'Broken Down Angel', a single that helped define their early success. Their version of 'Love Hurts' from 'Hair of the Dog' became their signature, with Dan McCafferty's gritty voice making it a rock radio staple.
They started in Dunfermline in 1968, touring hard before finding their groove with 'Razamanaz'. The band kept recording through the 70s and 80s with albums like 'No Mean City', and Pete Agnew still leads the group today.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
