No offense meant there, by the way. I am neutral towards Agnew.
Flea however, I would like to punch in the face.
EDIT: I do not want to get in a flame war. I do not like Flea's attitude. In interviews he comes off as a person I would not like. That is my reasoning for wanting to hit him.

Wow, that is country.....
I honestly expected Nazareth to be a contemporary death metal band.
Good though.

I know I'm resurrecting a zombie thread, but I've been listening to a lot of Nazareth these last couple weeks and I've never really paid attention to the bass much until now. Pete Agnew is really good. People use the word underrated a lot, but in this case it is really true.
While I've heard Hair of the Dog a million times, these past couple of weeks I've been hearing Razamanaz, The Newz, Expect No Mercy, Rampant and No Mean City. His bass lines on songs like Woke Up This Morning, Shot Me Down and Star are really cool.

I don't generally listen to bands like Nazareth, but they are one of my faovirte rock bands.
Pete Agnew is the only constant member of Nazareth, and the only suriving member (so far!) from the classic lineup.
He mostly played a Gibson EB3 through a Marshall stack, though he also played a Gibson Thunderbird bass. (Roger Glover, who was producing Nazareth at the time, played a Thunderbird, so either Pete owned a Thunderbird or it was rented or likely borrowed from Roger Glover).
He also played a heavily modified Rickenbacker 4001:
He used the Ric circa "Rampant" album from 1974and maybe also on "Hair Of The Dog" (1975). The bass has a similar pickup mod as Roger Glover's 4001JG and I recall seeing a pic from Glover's home studio with that Fireglo 4001 so maybe it is or was Roger's bass (Glover produced Nazareth at that time).
He has also played an Alembic bass

I recently purchased the Nazareth album Hair Of The Dog so that has been on the turntable of late.

Got drunk for the first time at the age of 15 listening to Nazareth with some friends. They were popular and had many great songs. I saw them in the late 90's and they were great.
