Nazareth-"Expect No Mercy" (1977)

"Expect No Mercy" was Nazareth's ninth album released in 1977 and musically successor to "Hair of the Dog" two years earlier, and although after the latter, "Close Enough for Rock 'n' Roll" were released. and "Play 'n' The Game", the latter are considered from their most commercial stage with an AOR that moved away from their characteristic heavy hard rock sound.
So in this "Expect No Mercy" the band decided to return to its harder sound with a powerful album and recovering the influences of its beginnings.
And this is demonstrated by songs like the one that gives the album its title with that psychedelic funky touch, the catchy country "Gone Dead Train", the blues "Busted", the heavy blues rock "Kentucky Fried Blues" or the spectacular and hard "Revenge is Sweet", making "Expect No Mercy" another of the great classics of Nazareth.
