Nazareth
Despite having hits in their homeland in the early '70s, it wasn't until 1975 that this Scottish hard rock band became known in the U.S. and around the world on the strength of its sixth album, Hair of the Dog. The release put them on the charts with the title cut and a cover of Boudleaux Bryant's "Love Hurts," which they remain most famous for today. An astonishing number of live, studio and compilation albums followed well into the '00s, but the band never again made it onto the charts stateside. With Zeppelin-influenced guitars and the gritty, highly distinctive vocals of Dan McCafferty, "Hair of the Dog" -- marked by prominent cowbell and the unforgettable "Now you're messing with a son of a bitch" chorus -- has been in perpetual rotation on classic rock radio since it first surfaced, and will likely remain there.

The Japanese fans came out in droves, and Aerosmith responded with some of the finest gigs of their distinguished career.

More than anything else, it demonstrates the Japanese fans' love affair with Aerosmith and their music. -
I Like To Rock: Live In London 1981
April Wine
Year: 1981
Runtime: 1 hr 6 min
This feature contains a complete and incredible concert performed at London's Hammersmith Odeon during the band's 1981 tour of the UK. They formed in late 1969 in Halifax, Nova Scotia and their first hit, "Fast Train," appeared in 1971, the same year as the self-titled debut album. The next year brought the band's first Canadian number one single, "You Could Have Been a Lady," from the On Record album. In 1976, The Whole World's Goin' Crazy became the first Canadian album to go platinum and their resulting tour was the first to gross one million dollars. After 1978's First Glance and 1979's Harder...Faster, 'Just Between You and Me' became April Wine's biggest U.S. hit. The single (one of three Top 40 American singles by the band) propelled 1981's Nature of the Beast album to platinum-record status. 1984's Animal Grace was their last album, but in the early 1990's all the original members joined for a Canadian tour, which convinced them to resume recording, they are still recording and touring the world to their ever-loyal fan-base. -
