YOUR QUESTIONS: For Ted Nugent
Your chance to ask the gun-lovin' guitarist a question
Ted Nugent is perhaps just as well-known for his gun-toting political views as he is for guitar playing. But placing his pro-hunting activism to the side for a moment, let's take a look at The Nuge's platinum-selling music career.
Ted began touring in 1967, averaging more than 300 shows per year. After a brief spell as The Amboy Dukes, Nugent released his self-titled debut album in 1975, closely followed by Free-For-All in 1976, which featured a young Meat Loaf on vocals.
31 recordings and 35 million-sold albums later, Ted just played his 6000th gig in Michigan, Detroit.
Other notable Nugent achievements include two of the best-named live albums we've ever heard: Intensities In 10 Cities and Full Bluntal Nugity. He's also the proud author of the essential 'Guide To Preparing And Cooking Game And Fish': Kill It & Grill It.
