La historia de Nazareth, una de las bandas más icónicas del rock, comenzó en Dunfermline, Escocia, en 1968. El grupo se formó con la unión de talentosos músicos locales: Dan McCafferty (voz), Manny Charlton (guitarra), Pete Agnew (bajo) y Darrell Sweet (batería). Estos músicos ya tenían experiencia previa en otras bandas locales, y su amor por el rock y la determinación de compartir su música los unió.
El primer álbum de Nazareth, titulado simplemente Nazareth, salió a la luz en 1971. Aunque no tuvo un gran éxito comercial, sentó las bases de lo que vendría. Con su segundo álbum, Exercises (1972), la banda comenzó a pulir su sonido y a ganar seguidores leales. Fue un preludio a la explosión que estaba por venir.
En 1973, Nazareth lanzó Razamanaz, producido por Roger Glover de Deep Purple. Este álbum marcó un punto de inflexión en la carrera del grupo. Canciones como "Broken Down Angel" y "Bad Bad Boy" se convirtieron en clásicos y ayudaron a la banda a consolidarse en la escena internacional del rock. Razamanaz fue un éxito rotundo y llevó a Nazareth a una gira mundial.
Baby's in the back seat, it's so real
Gotta love the feel of the automobile
You get a certain style when you're so mobile
And responsibility you can avoid that trial
Walkin' on the wild side
Lookin' at the down side
Just a little crazy
Got a kind of strange pride
Standin' at the back door, mercy me
Ain't no place for the man to be
It's a private love, no publicity
And the woman that he's waitin' for is bad news, he'll see
Goin' to a go-go
Slippin' to a life low
Goin' for the fake tan
Dreamin' up a fashion plan
ç³½overman
He's a very superficial man
He likes the girls that go there
He's a dude with a master plan
So young but why should he care?
Drivin' into downtown right on time
Smokin' like a pistol aimed on line
Waitin' for the tingles in his back
All those dangerous feelings getting' ready to attack
Walkin' on the barbed wire
Playin' with desire
Goin' for the night plan
Breakin' any heart he can
ç³½overman
He's a very superficial man
He likes the girls that go there
He's a dude with a master plan
So young but why should he care?
Baby's in the back seat
Gotta love the feel
Baby's in the back seat
Gotta love the feel
He's a very superficial man
He likes the girls that go there
He's a dude with a master plan
So young but why should he care?
He's a very superficial man
He likes the girls that go there
He's a dude with a master plan
So young but why should he care?
He's a very superficial man
His suit is ten years older than his last flame
He's the dude with the master plan
He's a very superficial man
He likes the girls that go there
