Pummeling eardrums, tearing up stages with his off-the-wall, no-holds-barred antics, combined with the nastiest guitar licks Detroit ever produced, this catalogue should satiate anyone whose palette is wet for some good American rock.

Nugent (1982) is the self-titled album that tells it like it is. Penetrator (1984) is ever-ready arena rock, as opening track “Tied Up In Love” launches itself from the speakers with its epic bombast. Little Miss Dangerous (1986) has just enough grit to keep those “sell-out” chanters in check. If You Can’t Lick ‘Em…Lick ‘Em (1988) delivers more stripped to the bones Rock ‘N’ Roll. Kicking back into high gear with 1995’s Spirit of the Wild proved that the seven-year hiatus only gave Nugent more time to brew up some kick-ass rock.

Full Bluntal Nugity (2000) saw this tornado of a man whipping through Detroit in a rousing live set, featuring bassist Marco Mendoza (Twisted Sister) and sticks master Tommy Aldridge. Featuring classic cuts such as “Cat Scratch Fever,” “Free For All”, and “Fred Bear”, the roar of the Michigan crowd in the background stands as proof that this man brings it home with authority.

Kicking off the New Year with such a lavish catalogue is not out of the ordinary for the Motor City Madman: 35 million albums sold and 6000 shows later, Uncle Ted is still showing no signs of slowing down. He’s kept busy throughout 2008, with the release of his Ted, White, and Blue: The Nugent Manifesto book, Eagle Rock’s release of Sweden Rocks (May/June 2008), a livewire riot captured on CD/DVD from the Sweden Rocks Festival in 2006, and of course, the release of his latest studio album Love Grenade (Eagle) in September of 2007. Truly, Ted Nugent has no intention of ever quitting…and true rock fans wouldn’t have it any other way!
