I'm 26 and think The Nuge is one of THE greatest guitarist's of all time. Stranglehold is at the top of my play list at my parties, along with Cat Scratch Fever and Van Halen's Ice Cream Man. Political bias is the only thing keeping Ted out of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame...and that's a FACT. Music is to be glorified and enjoyed. ( ALL genres and everyone to their own taste's) NOT politicized.
Ahh, still wonderful. As a teenager in London in 1981 me and some friends left school early and went to Hammersmith Odean to see him. Freezing, rain blackened streets, miserable tubes trains in rush hour, soaked to the skin and shivering. Got inside, curtain went up and this man literally flew onto the stage doing the splits mid air wearing only a fucking loin cloth! It may have been run of the mill in America but you cannot imagine what it was like for kids in Britain. Thanks for uploading.
I saw him play this a few years ago at a summer biker festival and I was impressed by how he uses feedback...The sound resonates right through you...Those Gibson Byrdland guitars are key to getting that perfect feedback,along with having specific spots marked on stage in respect to the amplifiers to stand at.
There are droves of liberal musicians but I separate it from their talents. I want music to always be the great unifier of people and be an environment free from politics.
Saw him last night in Sparks Nv. Unreal performance. Works his butt off at almost 69, I wish I had his energy and I am 15 years younger. Wife and I are still tired today just from watching him and the band rip it. Keep it rockin' Ted!
Love the "guitar face" starting @ 3:09 - Ted still feels "it" no matter how many thousands of times he's played it in the past 42 years. Pissed that I didn't know about this show - would have loved to be there. Thanks for posting.
Seriously...this song make my world and my thoughts pumped up -- in a good way -- at the gym, in my car, in my creative zone. Thanks, Ted, and band mates.
Damn Ted, I'm so glad your playing it note for note !! HELL YEAH......Cant wait to see you in Big Bear CA. And the tone of that beautiful birdy is just KILLER.
TED..... GOOD FOR THE HEAD !!! I remember when he came to the Kingdome.... sold out, stayed another might... sold out again... so he let the radio stations broadcast the concert !!! THE WHOLE OF SEATTLE was cranked in so-many home systems that the concert could be heard throughout the entire city !!!!!!!!!!!!
Uncle Ted is forever #1! Greatest Rock your face off songs & riffs in history...none touching his heels! Stranglehold is the Anthem of Multiple Generations of Patriots!!! God Bless Uncle Ted!
Man this is a perfect example of the delicate dance between picking and controlling feedback with the volume knobs Ted and billy Duffy are the masters of hollow body guitar rock n roll
Kyle Nelson it was a great show no doubt. I have seen many bands live. thought this might be a gig he layed it out on the table for 2 and half or 3 hours. like I've seen other bands do. I have yet to see ted do this. he may have I don't know. But not that I know of.
I know the late ronnie james dio played some of the longest sets ive seen when he came through texas. 3 hours of greatness. It sucks most most barely do 60 minutes. Miss rjd rip
God willing more Uncle teds that are God fearing men that love there country and freedom that rocks and is the biggest gift to mankind. Thank you Uncle Ted love your music.
Just saw Uncle Ted in Wendover, NV - June 23....... last time I saw him was in Spokane, WA. - 1979 Like a good wine... some things get much better with age. Keep it up up Ted we support you. Go 2nd Amendment!
This video just show's how much of a Badass Ted really is, I am 32 years old and Listened to music and studied it must of my life and I am a big fan of Uncle Ted he is one of the Greatest musician's ever and this video prove's it just watch him work the guitar he knows every trick in the book thank's for an awsome upload man.
You can't get a better version of Stranglehold, than this mother. If anyone still thinks about that Spirit of Cliff Davies and Rob Grange.. here it is.. 2017. Check that bass feel, hi hat work and snare licks!! It's phenomenal.
WOW, diggin this, then the audio goes crappy for a short time, then the end gets cut off, damn near got whiplash. Loved the majority of it. I saw Ted at a book signing with his wife in OKC. His wife signing books, him signing CD's and more. With people coming through the line shaking hands and saying hello, after a young man of roughly 13 yrs old shakes Teds hand, Ted stands and addresses the crowd. "Guys, you need to teach these young men how to shake hands properly, a good firm mans handshake, please". I'll bet he has raised some great, respectful kids.
He’s played the most bad ass song in the history of the world maybe a million times.... never gets tired.... still has a smile on his face. My hero; my bad ass uncle Ted!
Is it me or when Nugent plays guitar, he makes it sound like more guitars then just him and a bass player. He one of the best ever and because he is a strong Republican, he never gets the credit he deserves in the music industry! But “WE THE PEOPLE” love him!
I was working as a meat cutter for HEB in Waco and saw this. He played a lot of small places and he lived 12 miles from Waco at Crawford. 1 of my younger meat cutters was best friends with Ted's son so we got in free
"Why so much politics in the comments" you ask? Maybe because Ted is very loud about his conservative beliefs. Which does make his fans feel they also can be too. And why not? Uncle Ted is correct. Liberalism and Progressive movements are insane and pitiful. Uncle Ted knows!
@@freddyferrillo9704 I actually totally agree with you but the idea that you cant listen to his music, or say it sucks because of his politics is just weird to me. it's a snowflake thing I guess. Easily triggered.
Badass music. Period. Teds kicks liberal ass and takes names. Put an AR15 or a Les Paul in his hands....doesn't matter. He nails it every time. Keep rocking Uncle Ted. Fans love you brother.
Mh R Ted Nugent is an imbecile of the highest degree, I dont care how fast he can play, how gnarly his tone is, or anything. What comes out of his mouth is idiotic and a holds a true mirror up to Americas bigoted and racist, hate filled bullshit that will never go away as long as people put morons like him on a pedestal.
You need to move to a country who doesn't offer constitutional rights like the 2nd amendment. Ted love America and defends our freedoms. Suck it libtard.
Mark McClellan liberals are hypocrisy itself, if ted nugent was a leftist then no one would label him a racist or a bigot. i suggest you withdraw that statement when you have hillary clinton or bernie sanders on the democrats side because they have done far worse things than ted nugent.
He's a bigoted piece of shit. And he "loves" America and "defends" our freedoms? You mean by shitting his pants for a month straight just to avoid being drafted? sounds like a true hero....bahahaha. Plus hes also being an immature dick shit and completely degrading kids who survived a massacre and watched they're friends get murdered and hes doing it just because they want something done about our gun problem. You and Ted are clearly what is wrong with America, you guys choose you're stupid guns over the lives of children.
People always asked me why I played my bass with a pick. I told them that when you work with a hard-rockin' guitarist, and who uses lots of distortion you need that sharp attack that a pick gives that fingertips just don't!! This guy proves it to the max!!
Remember the day that album came out. I was like Wow, this is different. And mind blowing good. He's right, epic lick and followed it up some fun stuff.
Really not the most polished guitar player but stranglehold meant a lot to me when i was 15! ROCK ON NUGE ACTUALLY SAW HIM AT 15 IN'77, GRAND SLAM JAM, JOURNEY, cheap trick, heart, nugent,, nuge blew everyone away
The range of expression on guitar in this is unreal.
A true master
I wish the world had a lot more uncle Teds !!! We wouldn’t be in the mess we’re in!! Mans amazing!
Great guitar playing, not so sure as you about some of his behaviour, but I guess nobody is Perfect.🤔🤔🤔
@@seamusbrowne4909 correct nobody is perfect
yeeeeee
Belive me, the pendulum is swinging, soon you'll see uncle ted's everywere 🇺🇸🇺🇲
As a 35+ year fan of Ted, I can say with certainty that this never gets old! Great rock and roll!
saw Ted twice in 1977 & '78 40+ if you want to include the Amboy Dukes
I'm 26 and think The Nuge is one of THE greatest guitarist's of all time. Stranglehold is at the top of my play list at my parties, along with Cat Scratch Fever and Van Halen's Ice Cream Man.

you are so right. i was 12 when i first saw him fighting to keep my spot in the front row.1975 seems like it was yesterday
What is wrong with the sound ,it will only go so loud i can hear it but not nearly good enough ,stranglehold is always a good one ,rock on ted .
Hes. The. Leader of the pack. N always will Be. Now n forever baby jam w him since 1970
Greatest guitar lick in rock n roll? I won't argue with that!
Johnny be Good is the best imo
None. Plays like ted never will
Ahh, still wonderful.

Matt Symmonds i appreciate your comment. Ted lives in my hometown of waco. We never get rock concerts. Ted will give us a show. Hes a patriot.
@@jaredpate7983 got to love east texas man, im from gladewater and he and kid rock came to longveiw last year for the fourth of july
i was there at that same gig - the fabulous old Hammy Odeon - was it Def Leppard supporting him? Wango Tango tour?
Still rockin ...the guy is in great shape to handle this...He’s a pleasure to watch and listen too.🎸👍🏻
I saw him play this a few years ago at a summer biker festival and I was impressed by how he uses feedback...The sound resonates right through you...Those Gibson Byrdland guitars are key to getting that perfect feedback,along with having specific spots marked on stage in respect to the amplifiers to stand at.
The only one I'll put politics aside for. This is undeniably one of the most bad ass songs ever.
There are droves of liberal musicians but I separate it from their talents. I want music to always be the great unifier of people and be an environment free from politics.
@@BrentRF To hell with Liberal musicians! Uncle Ted knows.
Good man. Doesn’t matter his views whether you agree or not his music kicks ass
Leftists never put politics aside. Always looking for somebody to demonize and call them racist.
Ted will always be one of my favorite musicians.....
For me, 'Stranglehold' is my all-time favorite Rock song. Thanks, Ted.
Saw him last night in Sparks Nv. Unreal performance. Works his butt off at almost 69, I wish I had his energy and I am 15 years younger. Wife and I are still tired today just from watching him and the band rip it. Keep it rockin' Ted!

That's the hearing aid being boosted too much. lol
Seriously...this song make my world and my thoughts pumped up -- in a good way -- at the gym, in my car, in my creative zone. Thanks, Ted, and band mates.
Damn, Ted's grooved this just like the album version. Shit, I'm makin' a trip to Waco if I can here this live, Jack!
Aways one of the best guitar solos ever , The Drummer is a Beast !
Damn Ted, I'm so glad your playing it note for note !! HELL YEAH......Cant wait to see you in Big Bear CA. And the tone of that beautiful birdy is just KILLER.

This is what it’s all about. The three man band. Loved Ted since the 70’s. Ted is so good , he makes it look so easy. True master of Mayhem.
I was at this show. I was front tow far right and holy fucking shit what a show. A night I remember forever and will tell my grandchildren about.
Kyle Nelson it was a great show no doubt. I have seen many bands live. thought this might be a gig he layed it out on the table for 2 and half or 3 hours. like I've seen other bands do. I have yet to see ted do this. he may have I don't know. But not that I know of.

Uncle Ted murders it every time!
Loved listening to T man in the 70's Love listening to my bro today
Just saw Uncle Ted in Wendover, NV - June 23....... last time I saw him was in Spokane, WA. - 1979
Like a good wine... some things get much better with age. Keep it up up Ted we support you.
Go 2nd Amendment!
This is what a mix of Rock and Motown sounds like. That baseline is funk, drums are rock and roll, guitar is pure Rock and the singing is Motown Soul.
Think and say what you want about Ted's views but when it comes to guitar Gods Ted's right up there with the best of the best...
No,he's not even close.
@@wimrawe2343 so let me guess, Jimmy Page is your measuring stick?...Come on bro, Ted throws down some tasty licks...
Hell Yeah Uncle Ted!!!! Guitar GOD!
Love my Uncle Ted as much now as I did in the 60’s-70’s
This video just show's how much of a Badass Ted really is, I am 32 years old and Listened to music and studied it must of my life and I am a big fan of Uncle Ted he is one of the Greatest musician's ever and this video prove's it just watch him work the guitar he knows every trick in the book thank's for an awsome upload man.
The best Rock and Roll ever!!!!!!!!!!
Mona Mccoy yea
"Hall of Shame" doesn't think so..........
'I dont know what a gun free zone is, ive never been to one. As soon as I arrive, it ceases to be one' - Ted
i cut my ears on this rock staple...should be in the guitar riff hall of fame
You can't get a better version of Stranglehold, than this mother. If anyone still thinks about that Spirit of Cliff Davies and Rob Grange.. here it is.. 2017. Check that bass feel, hi hat work and snare licks!! It's phenomenal.
Grey Samuels
Almost identical to the version on an album I had in mid 70's
billyclub56 Ted didn't sing on the original.
Richard Kaplan no,it was Derek St.Holmes
LOV2ROK2PJ It was Ted's band and he's been singing the song forever, people always assume it was him on the original.
Grey Samuels cliff Davies was 1 of da coolest live drummers around . He rocked. They all complemented each other so well. Nobody out rocked them
WOW, diggin this, then the audio goes crappy for a short time, then the end gets cut off, damn near got whiplash. Loved the majority of it. I saw Ted at a book signing with his wife in OKC.

This song never gets old ,just put on repeat!
He’s played the most bad ass song in the history of the world maybe a million times.... never gets tired.... still has a smile on his face. My hero; my bad ass uncle Ted!
Gotta admire anyone who can play killer guitar and chew gum at the same time! Lifelong Uncle Ted fan here. 68 and still diggin' what he does!
Outstanding!
I had no idea Ted played the guitar in the songs. What a talented person... and not just playing the guitar, but kicking ass with it!
Robert Presti Jr lol, what else would he be doing then? Coz he wasn't singing on the records haha
What rock do you live under??!!
Ted is THE GUITAR!!!!
Great musician .. always.
Love Ted Nugent on stage and off stage!!! A true AMERICAN!!!
Great job Ted from Burleson, TX
I fucking love trio bands! I wish Ted did this full time
audio nice , ted in his zone .ty for great post
FUCKING PERFECT TED, AFTER ALL THESE YEARS PLAYING AND SINGING THIS SONG YOU ARE STILL A LEGEND IN EYES BRILLIANT
Oh yes, Ted is one hell of a guitar player.
you don't play,do you?
@@wimrawe2343 are u better?
@@bigblueplanet1968 yup but then lots of people are including a surprising number of 12 year olds

Why so much politics in the comments. Just listen to the music. He’s a guitarist and an entertainer and he’s pretty good at that.

STILL ONE THE F-ING BEST GUITARISTS F-ING EVER!!!!
So much fun to watch. Go Ted!!!!
Greatest musician and best song ever
phenomenal!
Yes
I like ted’s early work, something unique, something with an attitude. Then he opens his pie hole and it goes down hill from there.

The best Number of Globus and the next 100 years. Lg.Manfred from VIENNA
Stranglehold will never be topped. 🎸👀🤨👍
Hot damn Nuge and them boys tore this up!!....
Uncle Ted’s still got it, and the band was great
You're never too old to ROCK.
GO TED....
No soul on earth, like Uncle Ted!!
He is the bomb.
God bless !!!
Remember him being named no#.1,guitarist by creem magazine..... Double gonzo
I have a feeling that when Ted is about 98 years old, he will still be rocking that Gibson and wearing camouflage bib overalls.
teds always been a texan as far as im concerned and we love him here. keep on rockin and telling it like it is
High on Greatness !!
People always asked me why I played my bass with a pick. I told them that when you work with a hard-rockin' guitarist, and who uses lots of distortion you need that sharp attack that a pick gives that fingertips just don't!! This guy proves it to the max!!
in the top 10 rock songs ever!!
the number one guitar lick in ... the history of the fucking WORLD!
Remember the day that album came out. I was like Wow, this is different. And mind blowing good. He's right, epic lick and followed it up some fun stuff.
Love you ted ! Rock forever man!
He was spot on perfection.150%attitude ethic give us 7000,never sounded better ted. ted!!!!!#magnatonewarrior
Need Derek St Holmes on vocals....Ted and Derek go together like Peanut Butter and Jelly!!

Strong trio, both musically and in presentation.
Wow. Better every time listen to him. Wish I could play half as good
Really not the most polished guitar player but stranglehold meant a lot to me when i was 15! ROCK ON NUGE

I sorta dig the unpolished stuff more so as i get older
Looking forward to seeing him next week in Jax, FL.
Thank you for posting this-man does he still have it.
El viejo Ted mejor qué nunca es como el vino entre más años mejor es 👏👏👏👏🤘🤘🎸🎸🎸🎸
Needs Derek on vocals. :(
That solo is so good
Was that the exact studio version, note for note, unstoppable genius for a solo? Unbelievable!!!
Killing it
I see Pat Travers and Ted Nugent playing at backyard Waco I wish that place was close to me. Looks like a good rock venue.
Dayum. He can still sing fairly well after all these years.
The old man can still rock.
Awesome
Saw him a few nights ago,Craig sang this great tune.
Russell Summerton Who are the musicians here? I saw them on another video posted on RUclips.
God your great loud and proud
Chuck Berry style concert. The house supplies everything...you show up, bang out a few oldies, get your $cash, and leave. Neat and sweet.
Still got that groove loud and nasty makes him different his anger pours out through his instrument and amp !
Stellar performance! Mr.Ted fkn.nugent! Great job baby!
