I must say, when I first read that Nazareth did a cover of "Road Ladies" (quite some time before I was able to hear the cover), I remember being quite surprised. Frank Zappa gets covered by plenty of jazz groups, chamber ensembles, and full-time Zappa tribute bands. But Nazareth? Covering a fairly obscure Zappa tune? As it turns out, the song choice is not that surprising- "Road Ladies" is a simple blues rock number that matches well with that classic Nazareth sound. The cover itself is decent, maybe even good, but still..... Nazareth? Covering Zappa?
