Much respect to him! His voice was ultra expressive and influential.

Awful news. Dan was one of my favourite singers.

I will spin some Nazareth today.

I was a huge HAIR OF THE DOG fan when I was in junior High. Still am. Those songs are great. The album artwork is even cool. Living to 76 is pretty good for a hard rocking Scottish singer. Actually saw them in concert in the early 80s. Very loud show.

Fan since 1975 (Hair Of The Dog) and saw them for the first time in Santa Monica, Calif. (Expect No Mercy Tour 1978)
Dude was laid back and cool onstage and I dug on lots of their tunes over the years. Not just the bluesy hard rockers. Very good band (IMHDO)
RIP

Weird coincidence, I just happened to pick up a used copy of Britny Fox's Boys In Heat a few days ago, which has a cover of Nazareth's "Hair Of The Dog" on it. Until then, I hadn't thought about Nazareth in a long time.

Hair Of The Dog is such a classic album! That album made me a fan of them.
