What are the Muses? Anyone know how to explain. I do not, but if there's one thing I wish I could do is know what a musician feels when you compose something that is supernatural, to recognize the aura that surrounds a glorious moment in the history of rock. To enjoy the moment Ritchie Blackmore comes to rehearsal, shows the riff from "Smoke on the water" and the band follows, share that state of grace, able to perceive if you really feel, when you're writing a part of history .
We all know when we do something well, but that mental state is required to perform a work of art. That passed through his mind when they wrote Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" Dylan when he wrote "Blowing in the Wind" by Lennon with "Jealous Guy" or Hendrix "Purple Haze." Really altered mental status or Sid Barrett Roky Erickson were to blame for his genius, that world beyond the reality of others, the special to be able to transmit your music?
There is always a moment in life where creativity is at its best, and only geniuses are able to discern, to make letters or sounds that start of lucidity, to be able to become part of life of millions of people. It is fascinating to the human ability to develop talent.
What will that something special that was on the environment, this level of transcendence over all in its path in the recording sessions for "Dark Side of the Moon", "Exile on Main Street", "Born to rock" or "Highway to hell", they give off that special something to hear, that passion that must involve those who are up on stage, and really, few things beat you an adrenaline rush like you get in the tables, I still remember, my busy days when you walked in rock bands, playing to 60 people, the maximum audience was able to put up was 180 people, "and the rush was incredible, the indescribable feeling, I can not imagine what it must be delivered to an audience show. If now I put up a genie in a bottle of beer fuck we rock, we will not take a genius of a lamp, "and give me the opportunity to capture the spirit of the recording of one of the essential albums in rock history, I can not know which one, though the" Hair of the dog "of Nazareth could be an option.
"Hair of the dog" was the sixth release of Scots Nazareth, and would mark a turning point in the band. Dan McCafferty (vocals), Manny Charlton (guitar and synthesizer), Pete Agnew (bass and vocals) and Darrell Sweet (drums, percussion and vocals) in 1974 had released two albums, "Loud and proud" and "Rampant" and faced the 75 willing to give a blow on the table that stand in the head and ears of the fans rock.
Manny Charlton decided to take the reins of production, and got the band sounded as closely as possible. The album opens with the whiplash that named the album "Hair of the dog", a subject of rock and roll hard in the future that would inspire people like Guns n roses in their sound. Dan wasted power in this album, the guitars sound Manny Darrel bestial and Pete and put a fantastic clip to disk.
"Miss Misery" starts with a riff first, a hard rock track that Dan carries the weight of the composition with his mighty throat. After the storm, it's time to stop in feelings with the beautiful "Love Hurts" and classic taste, with nothing to envy to the Everly Brothers. And after the moment of tenderness, back to hard rock "Changin 'Times" and its air zeppelin. Another subject of another, this time from Nils Lofgren, "Beggars Day" sounds more accessible, but without lifting off the throttle.
always spoken of the great classics of hard rock, appointing Sabbath, Purple, Zeppelin or Thin Lizzy, leaving the background to Nazareth or Uriah Heep, something many times unfair, "Rose in the heather "gives a good example of this, showing that Nazareth was able to maintain various registers, from the most powerful hard rock, to issues like this more relaxed instrumental where the synthesizer sets the tone, and of course the smell of bourbon and southern flowing with "Whiskey drinkin 'woman," showing that in addition to all the influences of rock british received, also had ears to what was coming from the other side of the ocean . The album closes as best as possible, "Please Do not Judas Me", one of the best tracks on this disc, with a slide introducing the song removed from the synthesizer sounds, which is driven by an epic journey.
A fundamental drive to understand the development of hard rock and everything that would come later, and their influence on bands that dominated the world 80. Forever, Nazareth.
