What a guitar player!
All the songs are some what good but I would only recomend this to big Nugent fans, because the albums are a lot better then this, but if you are a really big Nug fan then you must get this. The Motor City Madman is one of the best guitar player of all time, and his is a collection of songs from his first 7 albums. But I personaly would recomend getting his first albums Ted Nugent, Cat Scratch Fever, and Scream Dream because on those albums the band really shines. This isnt that band either though. But I would not recomend this.


This is why he didn't make the Rolling Stone Mag Top 100
Narcissism personified. More vain glorious rantings from a guy who lost any music sense when he stopped listening to others.


Zee Wang-go zee tang-go!

A compilation of material up to his 7th album, "Scream Dream", this compilation is way too short and excludes "essential" tracks from his days with the SONY label. Made in USA in 1996 Serial#A-28066 Playing Time: 39 mins.

It's worth getting (used) if you're unfamiliar with his work, and for a bit more money, you can get the "Expanded Editions" of his first few albums.

Some in-your-face guitar performances, with lyrics like "You have to pretend your face is a Maserati"

It deserves 3-and-a-half stars, because it simply rocks!.


Awesome music but not his "best"
Taken on its own, the music on the disc is great but it does not represent Nugent's "best" (it fails to include his two most popular songs -"stranglehold" and "cat scratch fever"). Skip this "best of" (hardly) CD. If you are looking for a hit package I would suggest that you pick up "super hits", "great gonzos", or better yet, the "out of control" 2 disc set (this in the only "best of" collection that contains the legendary "great white buffalo").


The Pre-VanHalen American Guitar Hero of the 70's
Ted's mouth that runneth over in concert and in interviews was new and exciting in a subdued time way before he was known as a right-wing wacko. Going way back to the wide-leg post-woodstock years of the 70's, the Motor City Madman was undisputably THE American guitar hero of the decade for legions of pubescent teens before a certain Eddie somebody showed up in late 1977 to swipe his crown. The "voice" of this LP is the under-appreciated Derek St. Holmes who gives Ted the needed heart - or "ying" - to Ted's gonzo "yang". Had Ted not been so autocratic and shared the spotlight with the rest of the band featured on this landmark recording, they might have stayed together and been a supergroup for the ages, but they only stuck it out for 3 great studio albums which will always light up testosterone-filled memories for me and millions of other teen boys at that time who lived their lives according to the gospel of St. Ted's ode to the fair sex: "Wang Dang Sweet Poontang. ".
