    First off, I agree with everyone suggesting "Stranglehold" . It's a gem!!!
    **Edit: but A&A has done this song...so
    "great white buffalo"...it is!!
    OR "Wango Tango"
    Cat Scratch: ...in rock terms, this is a quickie. It rocks you, makes you laugh, has sexual energy, and it's a pop rock radio teaser.

    Saw Ted at the Philadelphia Spectrum in around 1977. From what I can remember: There was a barricade about 8 feet from the front of the stage. The floor of the concert was open without seats. The barricade was trampled down and the fans were smashed against the stage, monitors within reach. The security guards were trying, to no avail, to get everyone to move back to put the barricade back up. This went on for what seemed like an hour. Finally, with the full house lights still on, Ted emerged from backstage, giant Gibson hollow body strapped on. He cranks out an A chord at ear bleeding volume, sustains it with some feedback and screeches it out. He walks to the front of the stage, houselights still on, and says to he security guards, "Nobody's gonna move back!!!" Then he turns to the audience, and says to the fans in the front, "We're gonna play but if any of you do ANYTHING to fuck up my music, I'm gonna beat the shit out of you." Thunderous applause ensued, after all, it was Philly. The lights went down and Ted opened the show, probably with "Wang Dang Sweet Poon Tang." Something like that.

      @Deborahtunes Рік тому +5

      It's not the cat bites/scratches itself. Unless of course they have rabies.
      It's from a staff infection called 'Cellulitis' that people get when the skin gets broken, and it's not cleaned with peroxide right after. A person can get this any time the skin is broken, not just from cat scratches.
      If the cellulitis which turns the skin red, almost purpleish in color, and is hard & painful; isn't taken care of properly with antibiotics, it can get worse. I know someone who got the same thing from working on something, and broke his skin open in the process...

    As some of you know, Ted is an avid outdoorsman. Back in the 80s when he was still living in Michigan, he attended an annual dinner for a local Michigan bow hunters club. He sang "Fred Bear", just him and a guitar in a rather subdued mode as he was sitting on a chair at the front of the banquet hall. When he finished there was a smattering of polite applause. You see, this crowd of about 50 were mostly older men who probably had no idea of his life as a rock star!

      Joe Walsh and Ted Nugent sound nothing alike. Both guitarists started playing guitar at young ages by the mid fifties and both of their first successful bands got their official start around '67, so whereas there may be a mutual appreciation between the two of them, they both had their own playing styles before either would've heard of the other.

    No band can bring back the feeling of being 12 years old like Uncle Ted can. For years he would play Toledo between the week of Christmas and New Year's Eve to warm up for his big Detroit NYE show. I went to at least a dozen of those shows and yes, they were crazy. But you nailed it with the David Lee Roth comparison. Try his Double Live Gonzo Album to capture the feeling AND to see how he does when he isn't worried about the FCC. Songs? Stranglehold, Great White Buffalo, Fred Bear, Wang Dang Sweet Poontang, Wango Tango, Moter City Madhouse. He also does 2 classic Beatles covers with I Want to Tell You and Taxman. My personal favs? 1. Paralyzed 2. Free for All 3. Motor City Madhouse. Also, check him out with The Amboy Dukes and Journey to the Center of Your Mind for a psychedelic trip. Remember, Detroit in the late 60s had all kinds of great stuff going on-Segar, MC5, Alice Cooper, Iggy and the Stooges, Grand Funk Railroad, Glenn Frey of the Eagles, Mitch Ryder, ? and the Mysterians. And that's without mentioning all the great Motown coming out of the scene!!

    They called him the “Motor City Madman” for good reason. Always raw in presentation and basic in meaning - definitely had a lot of appeal to a teenager growing up in the late 70’s! He was such a sight to behold in concert - shirtless with a raccoon tail hanging from the back of his pants, and ripping g off wailing leads on his hollow bodied Gibson Birdland guitar!

    Ted's biggest mistake was the rift between he and Derek St.Holmes on the Free For All album. He brought in Meatloaf to finish it off. As a result, the vocals on Cat Scratch Fever and subsequent albums suffered. Ted's ego, I think, got in the way of bringing in a vocalist to front the band. In recent years he and St.Holmes reunited and I'm sure that helped alot with the live show in particular. His best material, in my opinion, is in the St.Holmes/Meatloaf era. Because, bottom line, Uncle Ted can't sing!
