Boogaloo (Nazareth Album)
''Boogaloo'' is the twentieth studio album by the Scottish hard rock band Nazareth, released in August 1998. It was produced by Mike Ging. It was the last studio recording to feature drummer and founding member Darrell Sweet before his death in 1999. The album also features guest performances by bassist Pete Agnew's son Lee, who later replaced Sweet as the band's drummer. The album was recorded at the Parkgate studios, Catsfield in East Sussex in 1997. 11 of the 12 tracks were mixed in early 1998, with horns and guitar overdubs added. During the original recording, the Hale-Bopp comet was clearly visible.

The character on the album artwork is known as 'Boogaloo'. The phrase comes from what the band would say when ready to go onstage – "Let's Boogaloo", a choice made in discussion with the fanclub editor who was present during ...

Close Enough For Rock 'n' Roll
''Close Enough for Rock 'n' Roll'' is the seventh studio album by the Scottish hard rock band Nazareth, released in 1976. The lead track, "Telegram", describes the band's experience while touring of hangovers, travel by aeroplane and limousine, customs, FM radio, girls, breakfast, press reception, soundcheck and finally the show over a guitar riff that bursts into a short version of the Byrds hit before returning to the riff and the story. It includes the album title in the lyrics. This references a saying among guitar players: "It doesn't matter if your guitar isn't fully in tune, as long as it's 'close enough for rock 'n' roll.'" "Telegram" (parts 1–3 only) was Nazareth's concert opener for many years, including the 1981 shows recorded for the ''Snaz'' album.

According to Nazareth frontman Dan McCafferty, the track on ''Hair of the Dog'' in which a dishonest young woman finally meets her match provided the original album title wi ...

Exercises (album)
''Exercises'' is the second studio album by the Scottish hard rock band Nazareth, released in 1972. Although their music is most accurately described as "blues-tinged hard rock" (CD liner notes), this record is quite far from the band's more standard fare, featuring, quite surprisingly, a number of acoustic arrangements, several songs with orchestral strings, and traditional Scottish airs. Indeed, the album's "1692 (Glen Coe Massacre)" is about a real incident in Scottish history, namely, the massacre of Glencoe. The album is also significant for its Roy Thomas Baker production—only his third project, and well before his breakthrough works with Queen in the mid-seventies—and its oddly 'new wave' cover-art (designed by CCS Associates). An early version of the Razamanaz song, "Woke Up This Morning", also makes an appearance on Side 1. There were no cover versions on the album: it wouldn't be until their 10th studio album, ''No Mean City'', that there was another album tota ...
