So, I was in the mall food court, yea we still have a mall sort of, anyway there was a young couple and they were ordering smoothies from some all natural store. The girl asked, " what is the Wang Dang Sweet Fruitang?" I lost it. I didn't have the balls to tell them what and where that originated. Funny...
@Little Neutrino Ted's entire show at the Monsters of Rock Oakland '79 concert is worth the watch, too. AC/DC and Aerosmith opened, Ted closed as the main act and he was obviously a stronger live act than the other bands.
"And finally, Weekend Update would like to congratulate Madonna, who gave birth to a beautiful baby girl last Monday. The baby weighed in at 6 pounds, 9 ounces making it the forth largest object ever to pass through Madonna's birth canal." Norm MacDonald
Hugely underrated rock and roller. Ted Nugent. One of the great rockers of his time. Songs like wang dang sweet poontang and cat scratch fever as well as great buffalo just to name a few are timeless rock songs.
Ted had a 5 year run in the late 70’s/Early 80’s when he was one of the biggest live acts in the world. You don’t headline Texas Jam with Aerosmith and not be a titan!
No matter what everybody feels about this guy's political beliefs one thing is undeniable:at the end of the day nobody regretted their expense for the ticket.
Ted Nugent - Lead guitar and vocals Derek St. Holmes - Guitar and vocals Rob Grange - Bass Cliff Davies(RIP) - Drums The absolute best line-up Ted EVER had!!!👍
My mom had my copy of Cat Scratch and was looking at the songs. She said " What the hell is this?Joey, do you know what a poontang is?" I said "Yeah it means rock and roll!" Had no clue but in a few short years I figured it out!
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a complete FARCE without Ted.45 years of my life I been blessed with Ted an old guitar and a tube amp.ROCK ON !!! Thank you
Dude. When Elvis Costello and Madonna made it in there while Rush and Ted were still out here rocking peoples faces off with no recognition at all, the Hall of Fame became just a cheap nasty 50 cent whore. Just like the Nobal Peace Prize. It was once something sacred. Now damn near everyone can get a piece of that.
Vince Leone RocknRoll Hall Of Fame does not like Heavy Metal and although Ted Nugent might not fit squarely in that genre the Hall still doesn’t like cranked up amplifiers . There are plenty of people in the RocknRoll Hall Of Fame who deserve to be in there but they have done a lot of boners too. Whoever that OZ wizard is who blackballs and snubs this is also cheating the Hall out of revenue as many Metal & hard rock fans would make the pilgrimage to see acts like Judas Priest , Ted Nugent , Megadeath etc.
Unlike a lot of drunkard, weed smoking, cocaine sniffing artists in his time, he’s the only one who remains consistently up in his prime even today 2020!
Saw Teddy back in 1976 at the Portland Oregon Memorial Coliseum. He and his band blew the doors off to heaven and hell and back... Ted Nugent is and was an excellent gutarist and showman. Smart and funny are a bonus.
The Judges are Jealous of Ted Nugent!! Nugent belongs in his own Hall Of Fame Over And Above Every Rocker that ever lived!! Ted is beyond Epic. It can't be measured in this world or in the Lifetime!! 👍👍😁
As one of the previous comments said..and I couldn’t agree more 🎸the R&R hall of fame should immediately vote the motor city madman in. I think Strangelhold is one of the great rock songs ever ✌🏼
He has made it clear that he understands that the HOF is a joke that inducts people who are far from rock and roll and that it has no credibility. He has said that he would not accept induction, and he’s right.
He is one of the few who's music sounds as good live as in the studio. I was lucky enough to see him once. REO Spudwagion was the headliner. he totally stole the show.
I remember listening to Double Live Gonzo and Kiss Alive a bunch way back in the late 70’s. Got to be the greatest era of music ever. We were so blessed to have come up back then.
I got the privilege of seeing this awesome talent . It was an outdoor venue and a four band line up. Slaughter, Night Ranger and one other before Ted went on. He lit a guitar on fire, someone threw it into the air and he fired an arrow into it before it hit the ground. The place lost it. A great show.
Probably would have been the rock never stops Tour. Quiet Riot was the other band. What a show I saw it in Tampa and had front row seats. I caught the drumstick from the Slaughter drummer and still have it
@@phitownhustler4802 No, I looked it up finally. It was Damn Yankees. I saw Quiet Riot with Sammy Hagar. I think...I have been to hundreds of shows and some of them get blended together in my head. I know what bands I have seen, but the combination of who opened and the headliner is where I get squirrely
A girl I know got me a backstage pass and.I met Ted for a couple hours in '88 after a concert. Before we went back, Ted's road manager said Ted was sick and had a 104 degree temp. I asked Ted if he was sick when he went onstage and I'll never forget his well-articulated response that included the "natural medicine of Rock and Roll" and a lesson about being self-employed and keeping commitments. I was 19 and I honestly didn't expect Ted to be nearly as intelligent, kind, and grounded as he is. I met Ted again at an NRA event in St. Louis in 2003.
Guitar Player i had friend Tom Williams who has since passed away, but his favorite rock story encounter was when he ran into Ted in the men’s room at some California amp theatre, he says i’m pulled up to the urnal & who pulls up next to him in next urnal, Ted Fuckin Nugent, my buddy says, i don’t want to make eye contact ( mens room etic lol ) but he knows he is never gonna get the chance again so he asks Ted, “ Sir i know you get a lot of stupid questions about guitar, being a rock star, i would’nt take up your time in a mens room with that trivial bullshit, but i do have one question for you? Ted, Go for what cha know, ( right off a Pat Travers album) Tom asks what do you think of a 357 magnum. Ted “That’s a damn fine ladies gun” one of my fav stories
if you ever saw him live back then I bet it was one of the loudest and greatest shows you ever saw! I saw him at the notre dame campus on this tour and my ears rang for three days! but it was worth it!
Saw him in the 1970’s at the Hollywood Sportatorium! One of the best live shows I have ever seen and I went to hundreds and hundreds of shows! Back then it was like $12.00 for a concert ticket and $6.00 for a t-shirt! The good old days. Nugent rocked! At the end of the show he took his bow and arrow and lit the arrow on fire and shot it at a target way high up over the back of the stage! I’ll never forget how good he was
When I was in high school, this was our class song. It was featured in our 1986 yearbook. Apparently, our high school administrators were clueless about the meaning of the word, “poontang."
Damn..that 61' Gibson Byrdland sound! Those guitars are notorious for feedback however Nugent is unmatched at controlling it and even incorporating it into his playing and sound.
@@johnnynails166 wow you noticed. ted noticed Derek took over and man nailed it and ted is such a team player. derek nailed the solo and ted left the applause in his plate where it was deserved. yes
@@brucebird344 Hell yes brother! Great player and singer! A Thousand Knives has always been one of my favs! Cat Scratch Fever album made great by this classic line-up!
I love Derek's solo and the way Ted slowly rises out of the feedback to do his counter-solo. Cat Scratch Fever was a perfect album second only to his self titled 1975 solo debut. Both of which I still listen to to this very day and usually start an entire evening of picking thru all my Nugent albums, even his recent releases. He's got a remarkable body of work that taken as a whole feels like you're on a journey. Long Live Uncle Ted!
Ready Sweaty Teddy..... Motor City Mad Man.... This song alone should put him in the HOF.... But he is way stronger than one song. 50 years, 5,000 live shows, Stranglehold, Cat Scratch, Wango Tango, Center of the Mind, Not the GOAT but definitely an all time GREAT.
When I was 17, had a crush on this girl. We had been classmates since middle school and she was gorgeous, like out of my league gorgeous. Never had a clue that she liked me the whole time. Finally, like teenage girls do, she told a friend so it would get back to me. Asked her out, she said yes, picked her up in my stepdad's thunderbird, and did the standard "movie and Pizza Hut". (as was customary back then) On the way home, in my infinite wisdom I played this song. We both missed curfew that night. Thank you Uncle Ted for writing the most romantic song in history.
I met ted myself in tulsa with my dad herb jr. RIP Dad but ted was an awesome and amazing man who wrote the book kill it and grill it love your music ted please never stop what you do the man the myth the legend ted nugent god bless you ty for my amazing memories
I've seen Sweaty Teddy, Terrible Ted, Uncle Ted or the motor city madman at least 30 times. He never disappoints. He rocks hard. Back in the late 70s he was so graceful jumping around, full speed ahead. All 30 shows were different. Even the ones I seen him twice in a year in the same venue.
Always loved Ted’s guitar playing and the fact that live he plays note for note what’s on the record perfectly. If you are or have ever been a performing musician then you know how hard that is especially with a 5 man band. It takes a LOT of rehearsal. Then add in the Ted-nacity that Nugent has on guitar and you have the recipe for a KILLER live band. I’m sure Ted’s “if you’re wired you’re fired” policy had a lot to do with it as well though. There were no drugs allowed on tour with or anywhere around Ted.
I saw him in concert in 2001at the Fort Sill Oklahoma Polo Field, him and Night Ranger! That man put on one hell of a show! I got my money's worth that's for damn sure. The polo field was packed.
I just showed this video to my father who is 78yo & always listened to 50's doo wop' & tried real hard not to like it but I could tell otherwise!..He couldn't wipe the smile off his face'..Nice lil father & son moment! 😆
Uncle Ted, from even a strong Democrat such as myself to you, you are a patriot, a real American, a great mentor to people’s productive way of thinking, and by gosh golly one of the greatest Rock n Roll musicians ever!
That is one of the coolest comments Ive read on RUclips. Its nice to see people in all parties put politics aside & enjoy the little things. Your a good man & thats coming from a a staunch Republican.
Fast forward a year. He’s calling for violence against Democrats. I liked him in The Amboy Dukes and his early solo career now I consider himself a violent dickhead . I didn’t have a problem with him being a conservative at all . But when he talks about harming someone because of their political beliefs I don’t agree with him he’s a extremist and I have no respect for him. I would destroy his albums but I’ll wait on that for now. Besides I liked The Amboy Dukes .
Great version of this killer love song. Nice guitar duel with the very underrated Derk St Holmes. I saw this band in 77 and blew me away. Still a big Nugent fan and will be seeing him again this summer 45 year and one day later. this guy gives you more energy and entertainment per dollar than any other band I have ever seen and that includes Zeppelin and Floyd
The 70's was a magical time in my life. It shaped my love for real ROCK & ROLL MUSIC . There is nothing like Uncle Ted while cruising the freeway with your windows down.
Huh? All music is music. That's why its called music. What music isn't music according to you since 1978? Are you saying there has been no real music written since this song? You should double check the internet for other potential real music before making these ground-shaking comments. Your user name leads me to believe that you either like the band Great White 2 times or you are from Canada and would like people to know this in a witty manner. Either, or, please explain how a racist shithead is the only person on earth capable of making real music.
I'm a Strat guy, but I'm still blown away by that Byrdland tone. And, this vid gets additional guitar geek bonus points when I realized Derek swapped out for the Les Paul following his lead. This is a really great vid that recaptures much of the magic I felt the first time I listed to Double Live Gonzo.

The true Ted Nugent fans always give a huge bow to Derek St Holmes and we always will
Isn’t Derek on the current “Adios MOFO” tour?
@OMGWUNSIU no was disappointed in that also. But Ted's not quitting playing live yet. Just not going out for weeks or months at a time
Amen my brother.
Derek St Holmes voice was the force behind Ted. One of rock’s premier voices without a doubt
He made Nugent
Listen up, kids. This is what rock and roll sounds like!!!
Huh, it sounds a lot like pedophilia...
Owww!
Uncle Ted. Hunting 🐶. MT Brother.
@@error.418 Wrong Hunter, type Biden afterwards for your search results...

Uncle Ted has never been ashamed to show his soft side with tender little ditties like this. A true romantic.
CLASSIC LOVE SONG.

So funny.
Teds the man
So, I was in the mall food court, yea we still have a mall sort of, anyway there was a young couple and they were ordering smoothies from some all natural store. The girl asked, " what is the Wang Dang Sweet Fruitang?" I lost it. I didn't have the balls to tell them what and where that originated. Funny...
Hahaha 🇺🇸
Fuck yes tell em with a smile 😃
I loled. 😂
Believe she definitely what to know.lol
Great!
Uncle Ted tearing it up!! His love songs are so touching!
All love songs all touching because he cares
Lmfao. One of the best love songs. Ever ♥️🥀♏🥀♥️
Yeah, there was touching. Lol
Yeap, broke my heart ìn a way.
Literally
the sound is physical
I met Ted once and told him he was the reason I play guitar. He said "Im the reason I play guitar." What a blessing it was.
Todd Davis cool answer 🎸
Good
I would expect nothing less from uncle Ted..
Lol!❤
@@ginareddish2730 I would've preferred a "Thank You."
This country is in trouble if ted doesn't make rock hall true legend
Ted was baddass. Double Live Gonzo is one of the many great live albums back then. The 70s kicked ass.
*is badass
I honestly think Double Live Gonzo is the best live album I've heard by any artist. It seriously rocks.
Double live gonzo is the greatest live album ever!!!
@Little Neutrino Ted's entire show at the Monsters of Rock Oakland '79 concert is worth the watch, too. AC/DC and Aerosmith opened, Ted closed as the main act and he was obviously a stronger live act than the other bands.
Seen Ted a bunch never got old .70 d's
Did rock !
How he’s not in the Rock n Roll HOF is unbelievable.
yeah but whitney houston 'the POP star is ...who cares the place is a joke
He doesn’t want to be. He understands that it has no credibility.
They hate conservatives. And southern rock bands pretty much
Who really cares?
He doesn’t believe in academy and HOF stuff like that .
One nation under Ted!!!
@1Ted_nugent dubble live gonzo !!! The greatest live album ever
I saw Ted five times as a teenager and each time he put 100% into his shows. What a performer and I still love a lot of his songs.
I saw sweaty Teddy with Aerosmith in Pittsburgh loudest concert ever attended
I'm 62 and still want to se uncle ted in Indiana
poor you!
RIP Cliff Davies, one of the great rock drummers of the 70's.
One of my friends actually has his Scream Dream tour drum set he purchased a couple years ago. Respect
Big Time!!!!
1 of my all-time favorite rock drummers always solid and right on time.
This band should be in HOF. Nobody ever picked up a Madonna album and said "I wish I could play guitar like that!"
the rock hall of fame is a joke it’s an honor not to get in
"Good One"
"And finally, Weekend Update would like to congratulate Madonna, who gave birth to a beautiful baby girl last Monday. The baby weighed in at 6 pounds, 9 ounces making it the forth largest object ever to pass through Madonna's birth canal." Norm MacDonald

Saw Ted Nugent in 73 when it was still the Amboy Dukes. They opened for Black Oak Arkansas.. Great Concert.
Derek played lead on this, get your facts straight.
@@TheLochs Wrong!!!
Derek plays SOME lead, but he was NOT considered lead guitarist!!!
That would be Ted Nugent, dumb-dumb!
@@dibber43 he plays lead, so he's a lead player. No need to be mean. Do you play guitar?

He's a confessed pedophile, do you like that? sickening
Amen!!! 🙌🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰🥰🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just another right wing lunatic making a fool out of himself.
70 + years old he's still sharp as a tack and Still rocking. He has more common sense than anybody out there

Absolutely 100%
Got that right... 💯!!!
When i was about 12 i started singing this in the grocery store and dad said be quiet there are women here i didn't know what it meant!

Dude. When Elvis Costello and Madonna made it in there while Rush and Ted were still out here rocking peoples faces off with no recognition at all, the Hall of Fame became just a cheap nasty 50 cent whore. Just like the Nobal Peace Prize. It was once something sacred. Now damn near everyone can get a piece of that.
When someone like Ted Nugent is kept out of the R 'n' R Hall of Fame because of his views, you realize that the whole music biz is rotten.

Ted in his prime, with his classic original band.
His playing today is at his pinnacle,hes never been better he was on fire 2018,#themagnatonewarrior
I would say Ted's prime was late 70's....but surely a seasoned vet in '95 !!!!
acttually his original band was the. Cross Town Dukes
No original band the amboy dukes
Unlike a lot of drunkard, weed smoking, cocaine sniffing artists in his time, he’s the only one who remains consistently up in his prime even today 2020!

Certainly was damn tight performance as well

Is true 🎶🎵🎼🎸😎👊

He lit a guitar on fire, someone threw it into the air and he fired an arrow into it before it hit the ground. The place lost it. A great show.
Amazing.
Saw that lineup in Tyler Tx. in '97 I think. The other band was Quiet Riot. Hell of a show, especially for the price.

What year did the performance in this video take place?
It looks by his clothing it's from the promoting tour of his first self titled album which came out in '75 🧐
The solo sounds horrible, with that screeching Strat bridge pickup sound. He knew better later on, and played Gibsons.
Ready Sweaty Teddy..... Motor City Mad Man....
This song alone should put him in the HOF.... But he is way stronger than one song. 50 years, 5,000 live shows, Stranglehold, Cat Scratch, Wango Tango, Center of the Mind,
Not the GOAT but definitely an all time GREAT.
One of the best to ever do it. He is way underrated.

Ready Teddy is a rare breed of rocker with common sense.
Hard to believe this guy is almost 70 and still plays like he is 30 years old...Must have done something right. As my hearing is long gone...
Shakin’ my thang! Ahhhhhhhh!!
Great guitar playing by Derek and Ted. Band is tight' AF and laying down no BS rock & roll. The 1970s in fine form.
go home, you are quite clearly drunk
I think this is one of the greatest love songs ever written
anyone wants to get mellow can turn around and get the F outta here...ALRIGHT?!
I know no one came here to get mellow...

That, and, "You wanted the best, you got the best. The hottest band in the world..." are the anthems of my childhood.
I love the fact that Ted lets Derek do the first lead.....wow...never knew that until I seen this !!!!
Same here! Been listening to it for 35 years...Learn something new every day!
Derek is a tough act to follow, but Ted held his own.
Just saw Ted last night in PA! WE love him!!! Just as good as he always was!!! Great show!!
This is the best live show thanks for uploading the vid! Ted is the MAN!
I met ted myself in tulsa with my dad herb jr. RIP Dad but ted was an awesome and amazing man who wrote the book kill it and grill it love your music ted please never stop what you do the man the myth the legend ted nugent god bless you ty for my amazing memories

Fuk everytime I hear this, I'm transported back to the 70s. Geez somebody invent a time machine, I just wanna go home.
Now this is Rock n Roll !!
What a bad ass tune. Cant believe i never listened to it before.
It's my first time hearing this song as well, Officer Winslow

Another Classic of Ted Nugent/Keep on Rocking/ Mark/ Fan for 61 years!!!!!!!!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Uncle Ted rocks in both music and his political views!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He's a Nazi.
When I pay for a concert I want a concert that's all.
Blow me hick
@Jeff Watson perhaps the Liberal Musicians should do the same.
@Jeff Watson wahhhhhh. Liberals still crying cause Hillabeast lost. Wahhhhhhh.
I do love this tender ballad
Bro, 70's music is FIRE and this some dope ass rock and roll man. Uncle Ted was a BAD ASS & so were those boys in his band.
I love seeing Derek getting in a nice and long intro lead on this clip.
So underrated, this was Ted's best line up for sure.
So underrated as a guitar player
Godspeed Ted Nugent!! You are the only levelhead figures in this sick world today!!!!!
A really fine drummer the late Cliff Davies. I saw him a lifetime ago when he played with a British band called If. God rest his soul .
What a Freaking Awesome Classic! 2018 Another Timeless Tune from Nugent!
Yo Mama,
I bet you are some Sweet Poontang....
I've seen Sweaty Teddy, Terrible Ted, Uncle Ted or the motor city madman at least 30 times. He never disappoints. He rocks hard. Back in the late 70s he was so graceful jumping around, full speed ahead. All 30 shows were different. Even the ones I seen him twice in a year in the same venue.
Always loved Ted’s guitar playing and the fact that live he plays note for note what’s on the record perfectly. If you are or have ever been a performing musician then you know how hard that is especially with a 5 man band. It takes a LOT of rehearsal. Then add in the Ted-nacity that Nugent has on guitar and you have the recipe for a KILLER live band. I’m sure Ted’s “if you’re wired you’re fired” policy had a lot to do with it as well though. There were no drugs allowed on tour with or anywhere around Ted.
@@JRPrestonIL 100%spot on with comments and this was Ted's best band and he never managed to replace ever, Derek, Rob and Cliff (RIP)
I heard that drugs weren't his thing..sex yes, was his drug of choice, I'd heard.. No biggie. Great rocker
I saw him in concert in 2001at the Fort Sill Oklahoma Polo Field, him and Night Ranger! That man put on one hell of a show! I got my money's worth that's for damn sure. The polo field was packed.
I just showed this video to my father who is 78yo & always listened to 50's doo wop' & tried real hard not to like it but I could tell otherwise!..He couldn't wipe the smile off his face'..Nice lil father & son moment! 😆
I think this was originally meant to be the b-side of Let It Be by the Beatles but McCartney gave it to Uncle Ted.
good thing the beatles would not have done this sweet tune justice
The writer is Uncle Teddy
Uncle Ted, from even a strong Democrat such as myself to you, you are a patriot, a real American, a great mentor to people’s productive way of thinking, and by gosh golly one of the greatest Rock n Roll musicians ever!
That is one of the coolest comments Ive read on RUclips. Its nice to see people in all parties put politics aside & enjoy the little things. Your a good man & thats coming from a a staunch Republican.
Fast forward a year. He’s calling for violence against Democrats. I liked him in The Amboy Dukes and his early solo career now I consider himself a violent dickhead . I didn’t have a problem with him being a conservative at all . But when he talks about harming someone because of their political beliefs I don’t agree with him he’s a extremist and I have no respect for him. I would destroy his albums but I’ll wait on that for now. Besides I liked The Amboy Dukes .
I metTed Nugent years ago 💜 awesome guy☮️
Ted was on fire here.
OMG ...this song is so amazing ... it gives me Goose bumps !
slippery396
slippery396 I totally dig the bass and drum sound on this piece. It's what Rock is all about.
Man, haven't heard this song in ages!!!!
Me too, dude... Uncle Ted Kicking butts!!
Great version of this killer love song. Nice guitar duel with the very underrated Derk St Holmes. I saw this band in 77 and blew me away. Still a big Nugent fan and will be seeing him again this summer 45 year and one day later. this guy gives you more energy and entertainment per dollar than any other band I have ever seen and that includes Zeppelin and Floyd
The 70's was a magical time in my life. It shaped my love for real ROCK & ROLL MUSIC . There is nothing like Uncle Ted while cruising the freeway with your windows down.
When music really was music.
Huh? All music is music. That's why its called music. What music isn't music according to you since 1978? Are you saying there has been no real music written since this song? You should double check the internet for other potential real music before making these ground-shaking comments. Your user name leads me to believe that you either like the band Great White 2 times or you are from Canada and would like people to know this in a witty manner. Either, or, please explain how a racist shithead is the only person on earth capable of making real music.
Nice trite tautology.
Exact 😉
Teds on another planet ....end ❤
Absolute God mode uncle ted!
Ted Nugent is definitely a great guitarist, he has technique, a lot of rhythm and attitude.
Dude with the long black hair, kicking it like a pro!! Great guitar jumbo!!
I saw uncle ted shoot an arrow straight through a guitar! Probably the coolest thing ever!
Only Michael Schenker's jams get in the same ballpark of awesomeness as this
I'm a Strat guy, but I'm still blown away by that Byrdland tone. And, this vid gets additional guitar geek bonus points when I realized Derek swapped out for the Les Paul following his lead. This is a really great vid that recaptures much of the magic I felt the first time I listed to Double Live Gonzo.
legendary rockicon! ted4ever!
Ted rocks. Libs talk
My first concert was Ted Nugent and Golden Earring in Greensboro, N.C in 1978.....I was hooked after that....
I saw Ted and Aerosmith in Greensboro in the 80s.
I remember going to a few concerts in Greensboro, Kiss, Jethro Tull, Kansas and a few more. 🔊🎵🎶🎵😁✌
Ted is a very generous performer, a real band with Ted's name on it. Awesome!
