I'm no guitar expert. But I like Stranglehold. Weigh in . . . |
|
Nugents politics aside, does stranglehold "hold up" among shredders?

14. The only time I saw him live |
|
Was acoustic. He came to a music store in Norfolk, VA, back in 1984, to do a clinic for Ovation guitars. He sat on a stool in the store and demonstrated their latest line by noodling improvs. He invited some of us to play with him, but I was way too new to guitar to try. I did get pics, and his autograph. He was my guitar teacher's favorite.

16. I need to listen to more Al Dimeola, I guess! |
|
I always associate him with laser lights and MIDI sequencers -- probably because the first I'd heard of him was the song Sequencer back in the 80's (on MTV, believe it or not).
I need to get out more (musically)!

4. I play guitar but I'm no expert at all |
|
I just know what sounds good to me. I agree, Stranglehold kicks ass. Nugent is still an assole though! lol!

I think Stranglehold isn't a Ted Nugent song. It was his guitarist's, Derek St. Holmes. So that, at least can ease some of the guilt for liking it. :)

18. Especially the live version! |
|
I've always liked that one.
Ted is not a *good* guitarist, but he's a rockin' guitarist.
Great White Buffalo I also like a lot.

19. Even a blind pig sometimes finds an acorn... |
|
Yes! It is very good. Hypnotic, excellent use of feedback, and there is a nice little Jeff Beck homage in it
