Ted Nugent’s *Nugent* isn’t just another slab of early-’80s vinyl—it’s a chrome-plated muscle car of a record, gunning out of Hollywood’s Pasha Music House with a full tank of adrenaline. You’ve got Carmine Appice pounding the kit like he’s chasing thunder, Derek St. Holmes throwing gasoline on Nugent’s guitar pyrotechnics, and a chorus of voices that could raise the dead. This is raw, sweaty Americana Hard Rock—brash, unapologetic, and built to rattle your bones.

"NUGENT" Album Description:

The Ted Nugent Nugent album was released in 1982, marking the 6th solo album of the American rock musician Ted Nugent. The album received mixed reviews upon its release, but it was still a commercial success, reaching number 38 on the Billboard 200 chart. Nugent was known for his energetic live performances and his love for hard rock, and this album was no exception.

The Ted Nugent Nugent album is a classic example of Nugent's hard rock sound, characterized by heavy guitar riffs, driving rhythms, and powerful vocals. The album was produced by Tom Werman, who had previously worked with Nugent on his 1977 album Cat Scratch Fever, and features contributions from Nugent's longtime bandmates Derek St. Holmes on guitar and vocals, and Cliff Davies on drums. The album also features guest appearances from guitarist Rick Derringer and keyboardist Alan St. Jon.

The lyrics on the Ted Nugent Nugent album are typical of Nugent's style, featuring themes of sex, drugs, and rock and roll. Many of the songs on the album are about relationships, with Nugent singing about his love for women on tracks like "Tied Up in Love" and "Lonely Tonite."

The Ted Nugent Nugent album was a commercial success, but it was not as well-received critically as Nugent's previous albums. Despite this, the album's influence can still be felt in the hard rock and heavy metal genres today. Nugent's guitar playing has been cited as an influence by numerous musicians, including Eddie Van Halen, Slash, and Steve Vai.
