Nazareth

Artist: Nazareth
LP: Nazareth
Song: "Fat Man"
[ listen ]

Nazareth's 1972 debut album is the only record I've ever purchased in Minnesota, the 12th largest state in the union. When I was in Fargo last July, I drove over the Main Avenue Bridge (aka—Veterans Memorial Bridge) which took me to a little Minnesota town called Moorhead and a record store called Mother's. Unfortunately, Mother had pretty bad taste in music, and this is the only thing I found worth buying. You can read about Nazareth here, find info on some of the best Minnesota travel destinations here and go here to see a picture of the bridge I used to get from North Dakota to Minnesota. I was hoping to post a photo of Mother's—Moorhead's only record store—but my Google image search just kept giving me pictures of Endora.
