Some love him, some hate him, some simply call him Uncle Ted. No matter where you stand politically or musically, I think everyone can say that they know where Ted Nugent stands. There really aren’t too many people on our planet that are as energetic, alert, quick-witted, and intense as Ted Nugent.
In this interview, as always, Ted is bright, clear and concise, candid, and dare I say delightful. Coming out of this conversation I felt energized and inspired, as well as appreciated and embraced. We talked about Cactus; the great music they made in the past, and the excellent new star-studded record, Temple Of Blues: Influences And Friends. We talked about family, discipline, guitars, conservationism, a new autobiographical book, feeding the hungry, and yes, the broken government and the Obamas as well. So, strap in and let the Gibson Byrdland power chord take the wheel!
This is Ted Nugent, raw and unfiltered.

Hello everyone! My name is Scott Itter, but some know me as Dr. Music. I am a music journalist and photographer out of the Chicagoland area, and I have been in practice for over 20 years. I grew up in the 70’s with two big brothers that showed me all kinds of rock and roll. As I grew older I ventured out into different genres like jazz, funk, folk, and whatever else I could wrap my ears around. As I read every liner note and every Circus and Hit Parader like they were the Old and New Testament, I came to realize that I just love sound and appreciate all the people that create it.
I later became a stay-at-home dad and started honing my writing and photography skills to keep my mind from turning into mashed peas. My kids are now adults, my mind is only slightly mushy, and I am thrilled to have the honor of presenting my work to you!
