In 1994, I was the lead machinist at Gibson USA in Nashville, TN. Gibson's 100th Anniversary. I met a bunch of people as they picked up their guitars and took the tour. Ted Nugent and Lynard Skynard played that night at Starwood Amphitheater. I didn't meet any of the band from Lynard Skynard. Wish I had. Ted Nugent showed up to pick up his new Byrdland. I bragged about standing in line for 18 hours to get (4) 7th row tickets when they went on sale. He looked at me and said, "You built this beautiful guitar for me. I want to see you up front." His manager or whoever he was took my 4 tickets and gave me four second row tickets. Best night of my life. As far as bands go, Skynard rocked the house for thirty plus years on vinyl. Nugent rocked the van all night long, again and again till I lost track of how many cassettes I trashed. In my humble opinion, they both rock. End the feud boys, grab a cold one, grab your sweetie, and party all night long...That's how most of us got here. Long Live Rock n Roll
Both Ted Nugent and Lynyrd Slynyrd were pioneers of their respected music genres ... I love 'em both cause neither held anything back ..they put it all on the line and still do ...
What was Ted Nugent a pioneer of? Skynard was a Southern rock pioneer and no one was close to Skynard, Nugent was ok but nowhere close to Skynard Sounds like sour grapes
@@Tennessee6447 Are you sure of that? I seem to recall the 2nd Amendment was enacted somewhere around 1791. Maybe a proponent but certainly not a pioneer
@@artvallejos1460 false. By comparison Vanilla Ice or the Beastie Boys could be pioneers of a certain style but Eminem's talent and wordplay/lyricism is unrivaled by them.
I did actually see Ted and the boys at Skateland in 1970. Cactus opened for them. I was 13. There was a room off to the side called the "Party Room." I walked in and there sat Ted warming up by himself. I sat down beside him and watched for about 5 minutes. He dropped his pick and I leaned down and picked it up and handed it to him. He said thanks and to just keep it. It had his name on it in all caps. After I showed it to all of my friends it disappeared. I never did see it again.
THAT is absolutely correct! You can find all kinds of Nugent interviews verifying that! Also played Bassmans too. There was something specific to those Fender amps that gave him more control over his signature feedback stunts. 6L6s probably, but I don't remember for sure.
He used Fender back then cuz they were American made. Everyone else for the most part were using Marshall. But he would not. Only used made in USA stuff.
Ted Nugent was several years away from writing scratch fever in 1969. This should have been more like 1979. Ted left the Amboy Dukes in about '71-or '72 and still had NOT written Cat Scratch Fever then. This guy has his details mixed up.
Both Ted Nugent and Lynyrd Skynyrd were pioneers of their own sound. They were both giants in their genre. I love them both and when it’s all said and done, we have great music to listen to forever.
Considering all of Lynyrd Skynyrd grew up in Jacksonville this story is not surprising. My daddy grew up in Orange Park at Doctor's Inlet and ran around with those boys before heading to Vietnam. He said Skynyrd walked J-Ville like gods. I am sure it would have been a completely different tune if they would have been in the Motor City Madman's home town of Detroit. Great story though. Thanks for sharing.
These are two different kinds of rock and roll. Skynyrd is a Southern rock band while Ted is more of a hard rock band. I would put both these band at the top of the perspective genres.
@@artvallejos1460 He had the talent but his ego or his greed was too big to share the limelight with the band that go him to the point he was headlining or co headlining some of the biggest festivals on the late 70's.
Lynyrd Skynyrd has been my favorite band since I was about 12 years old and I'm 56 now and they still are my favorite band. Southern rock 💗 I was heartbroken when that plane went down and killed the three band members love me some Ronnie Van Zant.
Cat scratch fever was not an Amboy Dukes song. Journey to the center of the mind, Great White Buffalo etc. Ted didn't play Cat scratch fever until solo.
it may be that Nugent had a different song with that line in it, but at that time his style had not developed into the style that he had in the mid to late 70's. This guy may well be both right and wrong at the same time. Doubtless he drank a bit with Skynryd's thirsty bunch back then, so lets just say he's lucky to still be alive by now, as their is only one original guy, Gary Rossington, still in that band, or alive.
Ricky Medlocke played some drums with Skynyrd in the early Muscle Schoals recordings before Blackfoot and now he plays lead with Skynyrd, and no one can deny that little brother Johnny was around and that Skynyrd is in his blood. Close your eyes and you can hear Ronnie in his vocals. The legacy lives on! The music they have written is as good as anything Skynyrd has ever done, I just wish they would play it more in the live shows.
Agree . Skynyrd is the best band to ever grace the planet . They all were fantastic musicians . Having a great piano player filled out their sound so nice. And 3 lead guitarists . Drumming and bass player, we're so good. Ronnie voice fit so well. Best singer ever.
Heard a story about skynyard band inviting Angus and Malcolm Young u to a cabin to jam for a day playing either bands songs together and just messin around. Would have loved to be a fly on the wall!
"Cat Scratch Fever" Single by Ted Nugent from the album Cat Scratch Fever Released May 13, 1977 Recorded 1977 Genre Heavy metal, hard rock Length 3:38, 3:04 (Single) Label Epic Writer(s) Ted Nugent
I been a Florida boy for a long long time and my second favorite band is fronted by a Florida boy by the name of James Douglas Morrison. But my favorite band is front by A Florida Man by the name of Ronnie Van Zant. He has other born and bred Florida boys that play in the band and a couple others through the years. But it’s definitely Florida Rock and Roll through and through. It’s the most down to earth southern country Rock done with pure raw genius. The love all kinds of rock and roll but nothing touches the music of Lynyrd Skynyrd! It’s just to genuine and perfect. God bless everyone from that band.
I remember this, we would go to Skateland on Saturday morning & stay until about 5:00 pm. 5 dollars was a lot of money back then, but for 5 you could skate all day. Popcorn, hot dog, coke, skate with the pretty girls, miss those good times.
@@nicholasslater3638 He said this happened in 1969. "Cat Scratch Fever" was released in 1977. "Gimme Three Steps" came out in 1973. Lynyrd Skynyrd's plane crashed in 1977 so he couldn't have meant 1979. Sceptical? Yes.
IF ANYONE EVER CHALLENGED MR. RONNIE VANZANT, YOU JUST MADE A HUGE MISTAKE, BECAUSE ONE WAY OR ONOTHER HE WOULD KICK YOUR ASS AND COME OUT THE WINNER , R.I.P. RONNIE, YOU ARE THE THE BEST........................
I think the 60's and 70's all kinda ran together for 'ol Steve - too much weed can do that. Did Steve ever tell ya the time in 1966 when Ronnie van Zant beat up Geddy Lee at a hockey rink in Toronto.....???
Thank you for the great story, I am reading so many disrespectful comments from so many, especially so many that were never there and many more that had probably not even been born yet.
Memories: Skateland was just a few miles from my house, in 1973 I fell inlove with a beautiful blond, her name was Vicki, we skated there often. Needless to say I was still 10 years old. My heart still hurts after all these years from the loss of both of them, Lynyrd Skynyrd was the first band I ever saw in concert, it was May 1st, 1976 in the Jacksonville Florida Coliseum I was 13 years old. October 20th 1977 their plane crashed, that was my 14th birthday, I will NEVER get over it, I still weep!
you got that right brother. I saw them in '77 at the Aladdin Theatre, Las Vegas, NV. It was the "Street Survivors" tour, and they were AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! I will never forget!
I was there also. I also saw them 2 days before at anaheim stadium in cal. Had nose bleed seats for anaheim and sound wasnt wonderful up in the sky. Cool show, lots of great bands and some kick arse tai stick to get it on!! I was from vegas and already had tickets for vegas before i wdnt to cal. 3rd row about half way between front of stage and allen and gary's side to the right. That show was incredable. Very, very loud but the sound was prestine. Skynyrd had a great, dialed in sound crew at that time and the alladin theatre was built for music acoustics. I wish i had a dime for every awsome show i saw at the alladin theatre. Blue Oyster Cult with Black Oak Arkansas opening was a real stand out, memorable show there. Black Oak Arkansas (who the moniker "southern rock" was FIRST labeled by a radio jock in wyoming). Their guitar players were just off the rails great!!! Oh to be young again. LINGSTO 195, where did you live in vegas then? I lived on the east side at that time by lamb and lake mead blvd. El Dorado High School. Then in 78 we moved 1 block off of fremont street at 17th and went to the ORIGINAL LVHS!! Good times.
Great story...but...in 1968, Cat Scratch Fever wasn't thought of yet. It was released as a single in May 13th 1977 followed up by the album release by the same name.
Plenty of comments about the actual release date of Cat Scratch ('77), but it seems Gimme Three Steps wasn't released until '73....so...this whole story (from 1969) kinda smells like BS.
Steve.......Do you realize that "Cat Scratch Fever" was not only not yet recorded in 1969, but it had not even been written yet! "Cat Scratch Fever" was co-written with Ted Nugent and Derek St. Holmes in 1976, and subsequently released in 1977. The Nugent/St. Holmes coalescence didn't begin until the mid '70s. Nugent was no longer performing or recording with The Amboy Dukes at that point in time.
Back in those days, many musicians played their music live several years before ever getting a recording contract for their famous songs. The promoters did not care if the songs had been recorded and released on albums or not. Skynyrd was not even a recording artist when they went on their first tour in 1970 opening up for Strawberry Alarm Clock who were recording artists. It was called the Southeast Tour. I played on that tour with them.
all i know is i got tickets to see both acts in MSG, but the plane crash hit about 4 weeks before the gig. I tore up the tickets, heartbroken that I'd never see the band that was incredible that did that double live record. I got to know the guys just a little bit decades later as they toured with Ronnie's brother, but what was missing was that tall guitarist who's died, and of course, Ronnie's great voice, so it just wasnt the same. Nugent did one truly great record, then fired his bassist/singer simply cause he wanted all of the attention, then wrote all raunch songs about his dick for the rest of his career and was never as good, not nearly as that 1st record on a major label.
Agreed but it was his rhythm guitarist who was lead singer - Derek St. Holmes. I remember seeing Nugent in early '77 and he was great. I saw him again in Dec '77 and his ego had gotten so big he was no longer even trying. St. Holmes did a very short guitar solo and i thought it was as good or better than anything Ted had played that night. That's likely why he got rid of him.
+Ken Settle Before you call someone a liar, you better get your facts straight. I just checked the album credits. Derek St Holmes co-wrote only one song on the Cat Scratch Fever album and it wasn't the song Cat Scratch Fever. It was "Live It Up".
Give credit to both bands. I am a Nugent fan, but as a music lover, I also have a strong love and respect for Skynyrd. I have been a music lover all my life, 52 years, and have never thought of music as a sport. It's not about who plays the fastest, the loudest or who has the longest hair and jumps the highest on stage. Music is about how it makes the listener feel when they hear it. That feeling varies from person to person, style to style, so there is no score to decide who is best band. There is only the love for music and those who give it to us. It's art, not sport. And by the way. Cat Scratch Fever nor did Gimme Three Steps release till a few years later. Not saying Cat Scratch Fever didn't exist somewhere in his mind, but I really don't think Amboy Dukes had that great song under their hat and never decided to release it on their albums. They would have recorded it if they were that proud of it. So rather than trying to get everybody to agree with you on who is the best, give credit to both bands and just enjoy the great jams they all give us. Mix the great music in a pot and throw one hellacious Rock n' Roll party! Can I get an AMEN?
🍁🍂Well said !! Besides, SOO F-NG WHAT ?!.., Its a story !!! Enjoy it for what it is.. Hey, anyone misguided enough to wanna go around "correcting" all the exaggerations, half-truths, "grey areas", and outright bald faced Lies, permeating the passionately kaleidoscopic/multi-dimensional History of ROCK~N~ROLL, has essentially just bought themselves a one-way ticket to the local Booby Hatch, a.k.a., thee FUNNY FARM.. In other words, its "only Rock~n~Roll baby, but I like it..!!!" 🍭☠🎸..🍂🍁
Steve, either you don’t remember things accurately or you don’t know what you are talking about. I’m sure Ted and Ronnie’s boys played that Venue together ( because I am also from the area, and My MHB friends also spoke about the venue). The problem I have is that the copyright dates of the two songs mentioned are not close to 1969, and I’m sure those songs were copyrighted months not years after they were written. Nice story man, but I’m not sure how accurate it is.
Coming from the Detroit area I just gotta say that Ted and the boys could hold their own. I would've LOVED to have seen that concert but I was in the Army.
Yes George he did and he stopped 5hat when guitar players were every bit as good or better he tried that with Frank Marino now I like nugent music better but always read frank and Ronnie montrose blew him away when I went to see frank 3 times during his guitar solo he would play a nugent riff and yawn every time he did it
Right on swamp music is the best true all American rock and roll. Gary Rossington is a longtime fan and my all time favorite guitarist Paul Kossoff of another awesome band Free. Ronnie was a Free fan as well and had a huge influence on their music. Great story Steve thanks for sharing bro
Loved that story, I was always a huge Skynyrd fan and they were definitely one of the greatest rock bands ever.I can believe Ted doing something like that, sounds like his Alfa Male beliefs.
Did it ever occur to you people that songs that bands write stay on the back burner for years.Ted would play this song in 1969 but he wanted to save recording it for his solo album.Do you think!I will give you and example,New Tattoo by Van Halen was a old demo song from the seventies but it was not released until the twenty tens.
So what? Just because it hadn't been recorded doesn't mean shit, besides it hadn't recorded! Doesn't mean it hadn't been performed a 100 times before then !
Thanks for sharing that bro. The Old Skynyrd was definitely original. Even when they played clubs before becoming famous they played nearly 100% of their own music, not much cover songs
SKYNYRD WAS A BEVY OF INCREDIBLY ORIGINAL AND ABSOLUTELY SMOKIN' GUITARISTS...I WAS 14 WHEN THEY CAME OUT. WHEN THE THE TRIBUTE TOUR PLAYED WORCHESTER MASS IN '86, THEY CAME OUT AFTER THE GIG TO SEE A BAND I WAS MANAGING AND WE ALL ENDED UP HANGING IN A MOTEL ROOM FOR 12 HRS AND ACTUALLY TALKED ABOUT THE PLANE CRASH! AMAZING MEMORIES....THEN JOHNNY CAME TO A RADIO GIG MY BAND WAS FRONTING IN ALBANY NY AND HE WAS AMAZED BY MY INCREDIBLE SOUTHERN ROCK BAND, WHICH ALSO HAD A GREAT HARP PLAYER. HE SANG GIMME 3 STEPS AND ACTUALLY WROTE ME AN AUTOGRAPH - "Y'ALL ARE A BETTER SINGER THAN I AM." HITTMAN
My Grandmother live a few houses down from the Van Zants on Mull St. They partied as good as they played which was not a good thing. Racing and rockin was the norm in that neighborhood. Old dirt track nascar track where everyone hung out. If Ronnie did not make it as a Rock Star he would have driven a race car!
Wrong Ronnie wanted to be a baseball player and he was damn good at it! Which your right everybody used to go to Jax Raceway my Dad used to race their also with LeeRoy Yarbrough..Our house was on Redrac st and Lakeshore blv ! 2 streets North of Woodcrest!
@@bigverybadtom Oh my god you did not compare stairway to heaven with cat scratch fever! Ted's equivalent to STH might be Great white buffalo but certainly not Cat Scratch Fever.
I wish I could have seen both in the early days. I was 4 years old in 1969. I have read stories about Ted doing this in the early days especially with Frank Marino of Mahogany Rush. I think it’s a killer thing to get the crowd worked up. Apparently he would challenge Frank, the after Frank would tear it up Ted would come out and bow down to him. Ted knew he was playing to the Skynyrd boys home town. Get the crowd riled up! Both wonderful unique talents. Nothing can be taken away from either. Ted’s awesome use of controlled feedback on that Gibson Birdland is awesome. I love them both.
Went to a .38 Special gig one year at a St. Louis, Mo venue called Mississippi Night's ( a nightclub ) and they were so damned loud that it was messing with everybody's inner ears which caused us all to stagger around while walking or wobble when trying to stand still. What an awesome night.
I was in attendance of a show in the late spring of 1976, Charlotte, where Atlanta Rhythm Section and Uncle Ted opened for LS. I had never heard of Ted until that night. Happy to be front row festival seating with Ted blasting my ass eye to eye. I fucking loved it. F.U.C.K.I.N.G. L.O.V.E.D. I.T.
I think Ted was a package deal. His music? So so, but As a showman, He had something going on! But I can't speak from experience as I never saw his gig. Just based on the testimony of others. What ever is the STAR QUALITY, Ted possessed it! David Lee Roth was another, and I suppose Steven Tyler too, although I am cringing as I type this. Not a fan! I'm probably forgetting a few that I should have mentioned before these characters. But you get my point! Alice Cooper! Silly me! First position! Who didn't love Alice! Okay, Angus he had that little boarding school boy thing going on, and, eh, Dio, The Oz, Klaos, Schenker, Edgar and his Bro! ( move to top ) etc,etc,... too many .. just a random list, not in order .... I'm rambling Oh yeah The Almand Bros. wait, already mentioned ... eh ... and I'm nodding out **=@^"&#@~`8@ZZzzz.
deep purple..first..then i love skynyrd..listen to them daily,an zz top..nazareth...spirit..an a few more,im 62 an i rock on a white strat.............
@LIBERALS ARE COMMIE USEFUL IDIOTS It is possible but the chances of two songs from two different groups written later are highly unlikely. Besides, I’ve read up a lot on Ted and I do remember reading him saying that he wrote that song in the mid seventies about a woman. If you listen to the lyrics it sounds more like the seventies.
@@andybecker2693 Except "Gimme Three Steps" was also recorded in 1970 at the then unreleased Muscle Shoals sessions (posthumously released in '78 as "Skynyrd's First and Last"). So that song was certainly around in '69 and as far a Ted- who cares what that no talent hack did or when. He was more of a circus side show than a true rock and roll musician/artist and certainly not in the same league as LS. By 1977 with Steve Gaines on board LS was capable of upstaging *anyone* !

Ted Nugent's prowess on guitar couldn't be matched by Skynyrd with 3 Guitar players .After the plane crash-Ted dedicated the rest of the tour to Lynyrd Skynyrd who were on the bill with him .Ted told the audience( I was in attendance) that it was a terrible tragedy & heartbreak for him and the Familys of the lost and the survivors as well . Touring rivalries always existed,but Ted was and Always will be a class act,and one of THE BEST Guitar Players ever !
I'm a huge Zeppelin Sabbath fan but I have always said this about Lynyrd Skynyrd they really were the best tightest most musical rock and roll band ever
I'm so sad that I lost my Lynyrd Skynyrd shirt. my wife had just died and I just had to leave everything behind. but I do miss that shirt not more than my wife of course
Great Video.......When your talking back in 69, those were the days unmatched with any days of music now. Skynyrd, and many more all new rock groups had their own one of a kind sound, and style. It was a great time to be alive!! All those who missed it, you all live in a garbage pit compared to 1969!! Yeah Brother, bring back the 60's and 70's!!!
Right, I thought so! I was going to ask if that was you and Amelia I saw live in Tunga a few years back!?!?! I think it was at the Pacific Ring Amphitheater, correct? THAT was something to see for certain!
I wondered where Matt Groening got the idea for Grandpa Simpson's character. Maybe Elton John showed up in that duck suit of his. Ronnie wore an onion on his belt, because that was the style in those days. It would be nice if it was a couples skate only and Billy Powell and Ted Nugent (Bill and Ted) skated to Christopher Cross' "Sailing".
I did a show in Savannah GA with my band, Magi, (I was lead singer), Ted Nugent and Manassas in 1970 at the Armory. Many of the songs recorded in the 1970s, like Cat Scratch Fever, were written and performed live before being recorded. This was one of those songs. It was way ahead of its time and the music business was not ready.
I agree. People just don't understand how cool everything was back in those sweet memories from a time gone by. People were just cooler to each other then. You turn me on. I turn you on. It was a bond of honor. The song belongs to "Rock" in the end.
Absolutely untrue. There's a Circus interview with Nugent where he printed the lyrics for the first time, and remarked how he JUST wrote the song. Trust me - a song like CSF would have been on his 1st album if he had the chance....
BULLSHIT. Ted was playing one of his biggest hits ever live for almost decade before he decided to record and make money off it? Do you know how stupid that sounds? Evidently not...
You are so awesome and I like how you tell it. I wish Ronnie Van Zant was still alive. I like Lynryrd Skynrd and play their music all the time when I can.
There’s no doubt that Steve is a hard core Skynyrd fan. He sounds convincing, but who’s to say he’s not talking BS. Interesting stories, nonetheless. I could talk to him about Skynyrd all day and go thru their collection. Long live Lynyrd Skynyrd...
Ted was using Fender Twin Reverbs stacked on to Dual Showman Cabinets and I can guarantee you the cowboy hat didn't come till years later. He was still using the Fender Amp set up in 1978 when I watched him at the old Chicago Stadium where the Black Hawk hockey team used to play. Loudest show I ever saw. Black Oak Arkansas opened and kicked ass their own selves. Nostalgia is a funny thing. 10% truth plus 80% bull-shit plus 10% fun = a good story.
@@stingylizard Yup, the Amboy Dukes were gone when that song was recorded. Ted had a new band. Derek St. Holmes was part of that and was a real talent on vocals and guitar. He made that line up.
Fuck yeah Skynyrd is the best band ever their music is true from the heart and it's how they and their friends live their life, needle and the spoon,can't you smell that smell, call me the breeze Sweet Home Alabama, Free Bird, was I right or wrong, coming home, Curtis Lowe, Simple Man, Tuesday's Gone, their music is one of a kind and it's their music they never copied nobody, just some good old Southern Boys, just like Marshall Tucker, The Allman Brothers, The Outlaws, Molly Hatchet, that's just some of the good old Southern Boys.
I'm from Jax and Lynyrd Skynyrd is great but I believe that they share the stage with ZZ Top, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble, The stray Cats (GREAT LIVE!) and George Thorogood and the Destroyers.
Cool story, although a bit embellished. I saw the original Skynyrd lineup, before the infamous plane crash twice, then at least 5 more times later with Donnie singing. I must have seen Nugent 7 or 8 times, all early bay area shows when he was on his game. I love them both! RIP Ronnie
Written by the polarizing Nugent in 1977, the song was released on May 13 of that year. It boasts a rambunctious, even party-like electric guitar riff, which is what helped make the recording famous. Nugent comes in sounding like a stadium rock band singer in the style of AC/DC. His voice hypnotizes and the guitar riffs do, too. But beyond the musicality, the song, of course, is about sex-the cat being a thinly veiled concept for a woman and the fever being lust. As Nugent plays shrieking guitar leads, he sings: I make the pussy purr with the stroke of my hand They know they gettin’ it from me They know just where to go When they need their lovin’ man They know I do it for free
David Lanham i don’t think so. Think about it, it would have already had to be popular for him to yell cat scratch fever before he started playing it. This guy is either lying or has his dates messed up.
Skynyrd was the best band there ever was in the history of rock n' roll music. No theatrics, no over-production, and no nonsense, just pure straight and raw music. Won't ever be another like Skynyrd again!
Dagger 323 you are right about LS , go check out blackberry smoke, they conduct them selves in that exact same manner, they're true to them selfs and the arts as well, I believe you will appreciate their music as I did up on discovering them here on u tube, they have been shut out by mainstream radio for being guilty of having talent and substance and not willing to be a puppet for the rigged music industry spreading the SMOKE 🎼🎤🎧
Supernova1987A The Allmans were great but they're in no way a better song band than Skynyrd. If you think the majority of Skynyrd's tunes were "garbage" then that pretty much tells me all I need to know about your musical tastes...
Wild story - Ted never performed using Marshalls with the Amboy Dukes in '69; he played Fenders. Furthermore, Cat Scratch Fever wasn't even written yet in 1969; it was first performed live in 1977. Skynyrd's Gimme Three Steps didn't come out until 1973. Not sure what Steve was smokin', but this is a wild story. Ted was always friends with the Skynyrd band from the first time they shared a billing; I doubt he "challenged" the band in a hostile manner as described here. In the 70's when they toured together, they never took turns playing one song on stage and then letting the other band come out and try to top it; each played their sets, and the double billing was always a crowd pleaser. Not sure why Steve had to video himself telling this story full of holes; some vendetta for Ted or something?
Is not insignificant he's a legend just not quite as much as Lynyrd Skynyrd as far as music goes. But he surpasses that because he's a very vocal activist that lots of us like and respect and the only reason he's not in the Rock and roll Hall of Fame is because he tells it like it is in the rainbow huggers hated because it's not politically correct. We love Ted Nugent just as well.
Gimme a break Nugent isn't HOF worthy. Of course I think there's way too many in the HOF anyway. Is it the Rock and Roll HOF or hall of very good. Nugent was good but not HOF worthy. Now if there was just a hof for songs I'd say Stranglehold should make that list.
@@dimedraweriv258 i think your right lexi..way 2 many in the hall of fame and "No" i dont think nugent is hof worthy but he did leave an impressive mark.i heard rumors now of cyndi lauper being considered for the hof..im thinkin wtf are they nuts?so who knows what makes anyone worthy now adays.
