It doesn't get much easier to review than this.
Ted Nugent live. What does one expect? Loud loud loud guitars, raucous
vocals, 110% attitude, and a general sense of out of controlness.
Not to mention Ted interrupting every now and then to fire up the crowd
with expletives and unruly behavior.
You have to love that! That is Ted and that is what you have here.
This concert was recorded last year, featuring the power trio of Tommy
Aldridge on drums and Marco Mendoza on bass.
Killer stuff for Ted fans, but the non converted still won't get it.
It's a simple 12 track hits package, with most of Ted's big solo hits
included. No guest vocals, just Ted at his raw best and one instrumental.
That instrumental (Klstrphk) is one hell of an intro - the master at his
best.
BOTTOM LINE: So Ted fans just want to know if this is worth buying
- very much so. It's raw and live as such albums should be and the atmosphere
is great. The production and sound quality is superb, while retaining a
true live album feeling. So if you haven't got it yet and Gonzo does it
for you, then why are you waiting?
PRODUCTION: 80% SONGS: 90% VIBE: 80% ATTITUDE: 100%
ESSENTIAL FOR: Every Ted Nugent fan on the planet.
