Nazareth-1974-This Flight Tonight

[@donguild7004]

I would listen to this song all the time back in 1974 , I was 14 and 63 now and still listen to it. The great 70s

[@EricSchryver-v8o]

I listened to it in the high school weight room 1990...and to this day.

[@RickHorejsi]

I'm 61 and listened to this all of the time growing up , playing my drum kit to it

Seen Nazareth in 1974, Roxy Theatre, Northampton, Pennsylvania. Awesome!

Look at the crowd sitting on the stage! The 70’s were the best.

Maybe, due too them making a video, for this song😮

No one made music like Nazareth. Still listening in 25

[@tomriggle3217]

Oh for the 70,s

[@AnthonyMonaghan]

Joni Mitchell was so impressed by this version of her composition, she described it as a Nazareth song.

[@Karl-cf1hy]

I did not know that this was a Joni Mitchell composition and won't even give it a listen to because this is a Nazareth song ! Don't really care who wrote it. It has to be one of my two favorite songs by them along with "Love Hurts" . 💔❤️‍🩹❤️‍🔥👍🎸🔊

[@vitaliychumak4158]

Love hurts ---- тоже не написана Nazareth . The Everly Brothers 1960 ....

[@spooley]

You really should listen to Joni's version, it gives you insight to the way a great song like this was interpreted differently - in some aspects, not others

[@AndyMangele]

It made her some nice extra-money too! 🙂👍

[@muninnseyes]

Ya Joni Mitchell wrote a few songs songs that other bands covered and they became huge hits. Not bad for a Prarie girl from Fort MacLeod, Alberta Canada

Music was so much more fun, exciting, and sexy back then. It was like everything was fresh and new. And it seemed that bands were always trying to outdo each other in a good way. ROCK FOREVER 🤘

While not live of course, the vocalist is incredible, and this is a wonderful song with so much heart and emotion, still gives me goosebumps.

This song gave me goosebumps as a kid. Still does! Saw them when I was 12 at the Hamilton Forum in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Rush opened up for them! What a night!

[@greatunz67]

@@jamesdelaney3797 well there is y108 in Hamilton which is 100x better than Q107. Q just plays the same rotation over and over, and ever since they added modern crap rock it went downhill. Y108 sticks to the classics. That said though, all radio sucks, they are limited to playlists of just the songs they have cleared to play, which is usually a catalogue of only 1000 or so songs, which sounds like a lot but isn't. Back in the 70's and 80's you could call up and request ANY song from ANY album and the dj's could play it, but not anymore, they can only play what they have licensed, which explains why rock radio and the rock genre has died, people don't get to hear all of the cool b-sides and album cuts, live albums etc that they used to, just that lame limited playlist. Myself i never listen to the radio, i have a 24 terabyte server with 36,000 albums on it, and a 4 terabyte external drive in my car with over 5000 songs on it, i just throw them on random and never heard the same thing twice unless i want to. Radio sucks, having your own collection is the way to go.

I saw them in Waterloo Ontario. The opening act was Rush.

Pure gold, timeless classic. Forever.

[@andrewwilson888]

One of the best rock songs of the 1970s. Dan's vocal performance is so powerful and the band's groove ties it all together. This song kicked my 12 years old butt in 1974 and it still does half a century later.

[@brucerouffian2630]

I love that Joni Mitchell used to introduce her own song as "This next one was a big hit for Nazareth." This really was a phenomenal cover.

[@davehall8584]

It ain't a cover no more if you bring the melody up to this freaking level!
