Vinyl LP pressing. Exercises is the second studio album by Scottish hard rock band Nazareth, released in 1972. Although their music is most accurately described as "blues-tinged hard rock", this record is quite far from the band's more standard fare, featuring, quite surprisingly, a number of acoustic arrangements, several songs with orchestral strings, and traditional Scottish airs. Indeed, the album's "1692 (Glen Coe Massacre)" is about a real incident in Scottish history, namely, the massacre of Glencoe. The album is also significant for it's Roy Thomas Baker production-only his third project, and well before his breakthrough works with Queen in the mid-seventies-and it's oddly 'new wave' cover-art (designed by CCS Associates).
