They did have a knack for great folk song cover versions:

I really like the feedback in the background of some of the verses in the Joni cover.

Plus, that galloping horse riff!
Wondering if Joni or Dylan ever weighed in on these versions? I wouldn't expect them to like them, but you'd have to respect how Nazareth made them their own.

Then again, Dylan was raving about the Eagles in this weekend's NYTimes, specifically "New Kid In Town", "One Of These Nights" and "Pretty Maids All In A Row" (which he called "maybe the greatest song ever"), so who knows...

Honestly, how fucking great is this.
it's practically DEAN BLUNT for chrissakes, in 1982, and by NAZARETH
some random album track from some time when no one cared about them anymore and yet it's this stunning dubby post-punk jangle/minimal wave/woojimawotsit robert turman x minny pops lovely shimmering thing. my friend thinks he weirdly sounds like horace andy at the start but even as he goes all hoary aor rock voice towards the end the music rises to meet the odd-marriage occasion with these panned accent-colour synth whirls and it's just oh wow why is this so damn good.
there's another track on the album, 'mexico', that sounds like folksy darkwave with the chords of 'piano' by tricky. side two of rage in eden meets all about eve. odd stuff.

The synth bits make sense as that was from when John Locke (ex-Spirit and early adopter of synths in general) was in the band.
