Ted Nugent and Amboy Dukes
Richard's Niteclub
Atlanta
1974

This is a great soundboard recording of Ted Nugent from the final stages of the Amboy Dukes, circa 1974, featuring tunes you may not ever have heard before if you only know Ted's solo work.

If you know the history of the Amboy Dukes, you know that there was a boatload of personnel changes, with Ted remaining the only constant. This was the second-to-the-last lineup, when they were performing as only a power trio. It was a little while after this that Ted secured the vocal services of Derek St. Holmes and put the final nail in the Amboy Dukes coffin. Everything went in a different direction after that --- more commercial, more gonzo, more polish --- but no, I'm not bitter about that.  These songs are mostly culled from 2 albums that are IMHO, the cream of Ted's work ---- Tooth, Fang and Claw, and Call of the Wild.
