Released in 1991 by Griffin Records. Despite the retirement of full-time guitarist Manny Charlton and the return of Billy Rankin, in the ' 90s Nazareth returned to the classic hard rock that they had started with. From the first chords of "Hire and Fire", it is as if you are transported to 1974, to the time of "Rampant". The first 3 tracks are made in this style. Then the obligatory melodic semi-ballad "Every Time it Rains". Remnants of the sound of the 80's still remain in "Keeping our Love Alive". "The Rowan Tree" - a small cute instrumental on acoustic guitar, which is like an introduction to "Tell Me That You Love Me" - here the guys remembered that they are from Scotland and played a wonderful folk singing song. The disc ends with another replay of " This Flight Tonight» In February 1992, the album was released, received flattering reviews from critics, followed by a tour of Europe, including the first, after 1985, a trip to England. In 1993, "No Jive" was released in the United States, received excellent reviews and sold well. ...more

AARDVARK-AARDVARK-1970-FIRST PRESS UK (PROMO) - DERAM NOVA-SDN17. Mega rare British original hard-prog-blues cult band. Aardvark ‎– (1970) The one-album English band took as their name a term denoting a representative of the tropical fauna-the African anteater. In the late 60s and early 70s, during the musical rock boom, a huge number of bands released one or two albums. Many of these groups often imitated already known artists, a number of groups tried to experiment with sound, but due to the lack of professionalism and talent, their music was of little interest to anyone... But still, many were not deservedly forgotten, as the material released by these teams was sometimes very interesting, and often did not concede or even surpass in quality, the then monsters from rock... One of these teams was the Aardvark group. On July 11, 1969, Aardvark, Blodwyn Pig and The Good Earth, along with THE Soft Machine, participated in Midnight Rave No. 3 at the Classic Theatre.  Prior to recording the only album produced by David Hitchcock, the band featured keyboardist Paddy Coulter, who was replaced by multi-instrumentalist Steve Milliner. Around the same time, Milliner helped create the album Barbed Wire Sandwich (1970 Nova) by Simon Kirke and Paul Kossoff's Black Cat Bones.The main burden in the band, which worked without a guitarist, fell on the shoulders of keyboardist Steve Milliner. His inventive playing with bassist Stan Aldous is one of the obvious advantages of the disc, which was released in March 1970 on the branch of Deram Records Nova. The combination of organ, bass guitar and percussion evokes the Aardvark band Egg and anticipates the future compositions of Emerson, Lake , Palmer - The Greencap. On the disc, Copper Sunset stands out with a great, wrong bass part and the epic blues thing Many Things To Do, as if it came here from the Cream storerooms, but the best is the old-fashioned Once Upon A Hill with spectacular celesta parts.Subsequently, vocalist Dave Skillin discovered another talent. He took up writing the lyrics, and from his pen came the lyrics of the album Alchemist - 1973 CBS band Home. The further fate of the musician is covered with the darkness of time. ...more
