Scottish rock legends Nazareth are releasing their 23rd album this month. It's most likely to be the last one as Dan McCafferty the lead singer is currently being treated for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Janice catches up with Dan to talk about the band's 45 year career, and the album which marks the end of an era especially as the band has influenced so many others along the way.

Music journalist Billy Sloan places Nazareth in the pantheon of Scottish rockers and comments on the reopening of the Kelvingrove Bandstand ahead of a string of Commonwealth Games concerts this summer.
