Nugent has an ego but quite an amazing guy. He's not God or anything. He's human. Praise is nice to a point. Letterman at this time was practicing his own kind of Carson persona but perhaps more behaved to the wants of NBC. He got more comfortable on screen later and more daring.

Jacob J., you made my day. I'm glad you're glad and I'm sure glad, too. I've found more clips (Van Halen) from interviews that are maybe not this good, but will be uploading soon. Hope you catch them. Thanks again for your comment.
When Ted spoke about the concert at Arrowhead, it is all true. I live about 5 miles from it, and you could hear him playing as plain as day. There were many, many complaints about the volume, but the concert went on.
He hasn’t changed a bit since then. Just saw him on Joe Rogan. With all the Flip floppers out there it’s good to see someone that is consistently true to himself!
Thank you for that! I saw Ted play 45 years ago, in 1978, at Cal Jam 2. He arrived on stage in typical Ted style. It’s no big deal when a performer arrives in a helicopter, but Ted threw his own spin on things…. by showing up swinging from a long rope, attached to the helicopter skids! No shoes, no shirt, no helmet…. just his white pants and raccoon tail. The copter buzzed over my head, circling around the raceway a few times, until it eventually lowered him right onto the stage. The 350,000 friends that I brought along were quite pleased as well!! 🎸 😁
Aaron: I’ve spent time in England and will probably be back this year...my favourite place to vacation. My comment of course was to point out that Robert Heinlein made up a lot of nonsensical stories including the one about “an armed society”.
I saw Ted in 70's "Cat Scratch Fever" Tour. Speakers seemed to be stacked 50-60 feet high. He appeared atop of them & swung onto the stage on a rope (vine lol) wearing nothing but a "Tarzanlike" loincloth!!! It was loud as hell but clear with no mistakes! ONE HELL OF A CONCERT!!!!!
Are you sure you aren't talking about the Scream Dream tour. First concert I ever saw, Scorpions opened, Pat Travers band played next and then the madman swung in on the end on a rope in a loincloth. I don't think he did that two tours in a row. I could be wrong. Also, very proud to say that was my first concert. Hell of a show!
Which ever tour that was I saw it to in Houston, we splurged and bought tickets close to the stage on the right side, as soon as he started playing we had to move to the noise bleed section, I swear my body organs were vibrating inside of me, man it was loud.

I live south of Waco Texas about 70 miles. Ted lives on a ranch there and I'd love to meet him someday. I've loved his music since I first heard him back in '76. I also am a 2nd amendment supporter and enjoy his comments about gun control and how useless it is, especially in big cities where crime runs rampant. Go TED and keep on rockin'.
@Tony Lasagna lmao i love teds music but he's straight up heavily misrepresenting data here. This is a classic rightwing talking point, that conservatives have been recycling for literal decades.

Saw Uncle Ted w/ the Amboy Dukes with Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush at the Masonic Temple in Detroit in the early 70s. I still can't hear as well. What a night. Thanks for sharing this Rebecca. You Rock!
Spring/summer of 1987 I got an all access backstage pass in Fort Wayne when Ted opened for KISS. My boss was old friend with Teds road manager, made it happen with a 2 minute phone call. Got to hang out with him for about an hour. Just Ted, his daughter who was reading a book in the corner, me and my boss. At 17 I was starstruck and didn't even know what to say. Boss kindly picked up the slack and made great conversation. He asked Ted if he'd ever had Cat Scratch Fever. Ted smiled, said "funny story". Said his first wife rolled over one morning in bed and told Ted she thought she had Cat Scratch Fever. The riff went off in his head and he wrote that song that instant. He was unassuming, kind, and just a nice guy. Wasn't putting on a show, and kindly signed way too many autographs for me to take back to my classmates.
I am pleased and /or surprised how well he seems to speak. Maybe I'm just being closed-minded but I would be afraid that years of all the stuff that comes with the rock and roll lifestyle would have 'slowed his wits' but jokes on me! --The man seems to have a good head on his shoulders. :-)
Its so weird. They disagreed with his politics but still cheered to hear him play music. Its almost like back then they didn't demonize you for not having the same opinion.
Not only the most talented guy in the room, the most intelligent as well. Everything he said about anti gun lobbyists is still true 40 years later. Loved the wimps comments and the fact Paul Schaeffer actually had hair!
Rebecca, THANK YOU for following through on this! Great show! Ted is ALWAYS great to watch and listen to. He was SO tongue-in-cheek over the top that it was just great to watch and do the inside chuckles.
I was a big Ted Nugent fan in the late 70's early 80's and still am. I was in high school then and wasn't very politically aware at the time . My parents who were devout liberals (and still are) liked Jonny Carson and David Letterman but wouldn't let us stay up late to watch them. My parents were worried that I was listening to Ted ,Kiss, and southern rock as well as country. I didn't know the media bias back then, but it was sure on display with Letterman and his studio audience. Ted was right then as he still is today! Keep rocking Ted,and speaking the truth! Shame on you David Letterman and the whole liberal media.
Never forget my 1st seeing him. It was at a small local teen club in MI of only a couple hundred in “69”. He jumps out on stage as the Amboy Dukes Greg Arama, Andy Solomon, and Dave Palmer are building up a song.He was wearing nothing except a tan leather loincloth, full Indian headdress, and a neck choker. He jumps out onstage screaming with a bow & arrow and jumps up on top of his amplifier, drills an arrow perfectly in a deer decoy hung on a pole that has been placed barely above the audience. Throws the bow and arrow down with the band building up a song, and puts a Bowie knife in his mouth, slings up his guitar and with a thousand decibels steaming from it, jumps off the tall amp onstage again, perfectly to the opening downbeat of the song not missing a beat and throws the knife into the deer as an afterthought never missing hardly a note on his guitar, still screaming the whole time.Those were the days my friend, Good Golly Miss Rolly. Made such an impression on me I decided to play rock & roll in a band.
When I was a young pup, I cut my teeth on every lick Ted ever recorded... thanks for uploading this... Letterman steered the convo right into a gun battle... in case no on knows... Letterman is a true blue diehard liberal... I did notice that back then Ted was a but toned down... but he was being harrased (IMHO) by Letterman on the gun issue...
Ted was so far ahead of his time! Talk about intelligent talented and genuine! I was a little kid during his popular streak but I remember him and had sister and cousins that played his tunes to which i remembered once I was older and listened to him as a teenager and still do! Nothing like blasting a Ted Nugent jam while at work! Coolest dude around!
Great upload! I was going to get some tin foil for the rabbit ears, then I realized that was 4 decades ago! Wish I had all my VHS TV tapes from back then... actually I think I only owned one, and would rerecord everything over and over on it on Long Play, until it was unviewable. Great Memories, thank you Rebecca!
MrJeffacide - so glad you liked it. I hope you saw part 2 as well. It wouldn’t let me do the whole segment in one piece back when I uploaded it. Good memories!
I saw Ted at the House of Blues in L.A. back in 1999. At one point, his son brought a guitar out to him (as he had just set his other one on fire with a flaming arrow). As his son walked off, Ted look at him and commented at what a good boy he was. Then reiterated, saying "yeah, he's a good boy. I'm gonna buy him a new gun". This was shortly after a shooting in the city at a Jewish Community Center. A couple in front of me had a fit. Ted definitely liked to stir it up.
Recorded in the 80’s. I graduated in 1983. Started listening to him in about 1979’ or 80 about 15 years old. Love him just the same. Btw. I don’t care so much about the quality so much. I appreciate the videos. I think the beginning of the music he play was a song called “Paralized”. AWSOME
I met Ted in Portland Maine after a show there. He lived up to his rep that night, great show. He asked me and my friends if we were “The insane from Portland Maine?” I’m guessing that was a tag line he’d use. One of his band mates was a colossal douche, he signed my friends ticket “Ted Nugent” and he had the attitude that went with “his I’ve got no time for this”. Ted appreciated our fandom, even if his band mate didn’t. Ted later after meeting him was showing off and almost ran over someone walking by when he peeled out driving a “rented limo” backwards, oddly enough considering his backwards driving story. My mom had met him years earlier and said he was full of testosterone then too. In short, I had a great night and met Ted, he escaped hurting anyone unintentionally, no arrests at that moment anyways, haha
Thank you for these videos, Parts 1 & 2. They have held up well with the socio-political climate of today. Ted's music is timeless, enjoyed these immensely!
Sounded like he was swinging into Stranglehold but then he figured out the rest of the band didn't pick up on that so he just slid into a bit more of a random jam instead.
100% FRIGGIN LEGEND!!!! UNCLE TED IS A REAL MAN AND A MANS MAN!!! Something these friggin awesome candy ass fruit flies of today cannot even comprehend!!!!

@BloomingdaleTN: It's interesting how this "cloistered," NYC audience laughs in certain segments whenever T.N. talks about hunting. I spent my early childhood in Missouri where all boys (and girls) know *how to handle* a shotgun by the age of 12-13. One of my fondest of memories was the last, deer hunt undertaken by all of the menfolk shortly before my Grandfather was killed in 1958. People of the city and suburbia do not "get it." Hunting for food is a "Rite of Passage" for men. Period.

He was unassuming, kind, and just a nice guy. Wasn't putting on a show, and kindly signed way too many autographs for me to take back to my classmates.
I was a teenager in the late 70s ..... played Nugent on my 8-track so much thought it would catch fire !!!
Love it, old Ted or new Ted, still the same, spitting out facts and licks
Ted has never been short on words :) Thank you, these were a great treat for me.
I am pleased and /or surprised how well he seems to speak. Maybe I'm just being closed-minded but I would be afraid that years of all the stuff that comes with the rock and roll lifestyle would have 'slowed his wits' but jokes on me! --The man seems to have a good head on his shoulders. :-)
I've said it before but I'd like to see him & David Lee Roth in a closed room for 8 hours.
@@chivalryalive Ted didn't drink or do drugs but he had to fire many band mates over the years.
Stranglehold is his finest masterpiece!! ❤️❤️❤️
100%!!
He would always say this song is all about living your baby!
But he's not the one who originally sang it. The other member in his band was the lead vocalist.
@@tazz7830 I know. He's a badass with that guitar but a singer he's not. :D
Double live gonzo ted said i like it i like i like so much im about to do it all over myself i still love it since 1976
Put Uncle TED in the Rock-N-Roll Hall of Fame where he belongs!!!
Its so weird. They disagreed with his politics but still cheered to hear him play music. Its almost like back then they didn't demonize you for not having the same opinion.
Not only the most talented guy in the room, the most intelligent as well. Everything he said about anti gun lobbyists is still true 40 years later. Loved the wimps comments and the fact Paul Schaeffer actually had hair!
This was back when TV interviews were fucking interesting. Now it's just "Ah, so you were in that movie recently, how was that?"
Why did I go to four of his concerts? Because he is that damn good!
Rebecca, THANK YOU for following through on this! Great show! Ted is ALWAYS great to watch and listen to. He was SO tongue-in-cheek over the top that it was just great to watch and do the inside chuckles.
Strangled hold is my all time favorite jam in my vehicle on my way to work at 5:30 am and on my way home
This too cool, back when Letterman was a great show, and Ted is consistent no doubt, still preaching the same truth damn near 40 years later, respect.
I was a big Ted Nugent fan in the late 70's early 80's and still am. I was in high school then and wasn't very politically aware at the time . My parents who were devout liberals (and still are) liked Jonny Carson and David Letterman but wouldn't let us stay up late to watch them.
My parents were worried that I was listening to Ted ,Kiss, and southern rock as well as country. I didn't know the media bias back then, but it was sure on display with Letterman and his studio audience.
Ted was right then as he still is today! Keep rocking Ted,and speaking the truth! Shame on you David Letterman and the whole liberal media.
Ted is surely one of the top 10 greatest guitarists ever and had some of the best rifs ever
TY#2 Rebecca Lowe. Love the Patriots out there!!
thanks Rebecca for posting this,of course theres always some pea brains that have to post negative comments
^^^ what folden said. Thanks Rebecca, this was awesome.
@@Iatolaazzahola Yeah, what you cats said! Thanks!
PEACE from Philadelphia
I never knew much about Ted Nugent, but he is right on the money about guns and the information that the media puts out about it.
The Nuge! Another underrated guitar player. Best regards from Detroit.
I'd rather watch this in glorious 240i with tracking issues than any modern woke show. Thanks for posting this gem.
The crowd was so quiet. Hilarious. I. Love. That.
Never forget my 1st seeing him. It was at a small local teen club in MI of only a couple hundred in “69”. He jumps out on stage as the Amboy Dukes Greg Arama, Andy Solomon, and Dave Palmer are building up a song.He was wearing nothing except a tan leather loincloth, full Indian headdress, and a neck choker. He jumps out onstage screaming with a bow & arrow and jumps up on top of his amplifier, drills an arrow perfectly in a deer decoy hung on a pole that has been placed barely above the audience. Throws the bow and arrow down with the band building up a song, and puts a Bowie knife in his mouth, slings up his guitar and with a thousand decibels steaming from it, jumps off the tall amp onstage again, perfectly to the opening downbeat of the song not missing a beat and throws the knife into the deer as an afterthought never missing hardly a note on his guitar, still screaming the whole time.Those were the days my friend, Good Golly Miss Rolly. Made such an impression on me I decided to play rock & roll in a band.
Love me some Ted!!! Seen him play in concert 6-7 times and he was never disappointing! 🎸🎶💫🎸🎶💫🎸🎶💫🎸🎶💫🎸🎶💫
Love this and total respect for Ted and the 2nd Amendment support he represents. Rock and roll without drugs.
When I was a young pup, I cut my teeth on every lick Ted ever recorded... thanks for uploading this... Letterman steered the convo right into a gun battle... in case no on knows... Letterman is a true blue diehard liberal... I did notice that back then Ted was a but toned down... but he was being harrased (IMHO) by Letterman on the gun issue...
Rebecca Lowe, again, Thanks for posting!
You're welcome!
I have always love this man and his stance on this fucked up country. Would love to hunt with him sometime. What a icon.
Ted was so far ahead of his time! Talk about intelligent talented and genuine!
I was a little kid during his popular streak but I remember him and had sister and cousins that played his tunes to which i remembered once I was older and listened to him as a teenager and still do! Nothing like blasting a Ted Nugent jam while at work! Coolest dude around!
Great upload! I was going to get some tin foil for the rabbit ears, then I realized that was 4 decades ago! Wish I had all my VHS TV tapes from back then... actually I think I only owned one, and would rerecord everything over and over on it on Long Play, until it was unviewable. Great Memories, thank you Rebecca!
MrJeffacide - so glad you liked it. I hope you saw part 2 as well. It wouldn’t let me do the whole segment in one piece back when I uploaded it. Good memories!
Rebecca Lowe, thank you for this it was great to watch!
Dave was a different person and he had a different audience back then.
I saw Ted at the House of Blues in L.A. back in 1999. At one point, his son brought a guitar out to him (as he had just set his other one on fire with a flaming arrow). As his son walked off, Ted look at him and commented at what a good boy he was. Then reiterated, saying "yeah, he's a good boy. I'm gonna buy him a new gun". This was shortly after a shooting in the city at a Jewish Community Center. A couple in front of me had a fit. Ted definitely liked to stir it up.
Love it, I follow and watch alot of Ted on Fb and TH-cam. Love his attitude towards the issues that keep getting worse.
Recorded in the 80’s. I graduated in
1983. Started listening to him in about 1979’ or 80 about 15 years old. Love him just the same. Btw. I don’t care so much about the quality so much. I appreciate the videos. I think the beginning of the music he play was a song called “Paralized”. AWSOME
Strangle hold
Speaking the truth back in the day. Still the truth today!
I met Ted in Portland Maine after a show there. He lived up to his rep that night, great show. He asked me and my friends if we were “The insane from Portland Maine?” I’m guessing that was a tag line he’d use. One of his band mates was a colossal douche, he signed my friends ticket “Ted Nugent” and he had the attitude that went with “his I’ve got no time for this”. Ted appreciated our fandom, even if his band mate didn’t. Ted later after meeting him was showing off and almost ran over someone walking by when he peeled out driving a “rented limo” backwards, oddly enough considering his backwards driving story. My mom had met him years earlier and said he was full of testosterone then too. In short, I had a great night and met Ted, he escaped hurting anyone unintentionally, no arrests at that moment anyways, haha
Thank you for these videos, Parts 1 & 2. They have held up well with the socio-political climate of today. Ted's music is timeless, enjoyed these immensely!
Hey, HUGE thanx for posting these. I just found them and it was a great trek down memory lane. I remember watching this episode! Great stuff!!!
@mkeulr, who wrote:>>That was some sweet Ted Nugent jam there.
Best interview Dave ever had, that I have seen. Ted!!!
... ya gotta love how he's just sittin next to Dave ... jammin.
Hey Rebecca ... Thanks for putting this on TH-cam. It brings back a lot of good memories.
OMG, HE hunts and likes guns!…….sounds like a real man
Sounded like he was swinging into Stranglehold but then he figured out the rest of the band didn't pick up on that so he just slid into a bit more of a random jam instead.
This is so classic!! Just watched him on Pierce Morgan and then this. The man hasn't changed in 30 years.
Im so glad I grew up with my dad listening to Uncle Ted!!! This was filmed a few years before I was born but man I love Uncle Ted!!!!
Rock on Ted! Teach your kids to shoot early, teach them to be safe. Good stuff.
100% FRIGGIN LEGEND!!!!
UNCLE TED IS A REAL MAN AND A MANS MAN!!! Something these friggin awesome candy ass fruit flies of today cannot even comprehend!!!!
Really Really Hard to come by that Kinda Well rounded Talent
Comfortable in his own loincloth as always. Thanks for the share. Wonder if Dave would have Ted on his Netflix show in 2021?
No Way- !!!
Ted has been saying it like it is for a long time
Never seen these clips before man. Cool stuff and cool of you to post it.
Great video! Thanks videotape for preserving this. Interesting how relevant what he had to say in the early eighties is compared to today!
One the greatest guitar players ever to walk the face of the Earth hands down in any life time or any music genre ever
Wild that I found this! I was at the taping of this show. Long time Ted fan here!
IN LUUUUUUV🤷🏻♀️🙌😍🙌😍🙌😍my God he sat there & KILLED IT ON HIS GUITAR!!!💪💪💪
Uncle Ted, the motor city madman, loves his cars and guitAR's. Wang dang sweet poontang! Woooo!!!! Luv u Ted!
Motor City Madman forever. Music + lifestyle rocks.
Thanks for the post. 👍
I've never seen this before.
Gotta love the magic of TH-cam.
Thanks TH-cam, for bringing me here.
TED FOR PRESIDENT !!!
Scott Cozart -🌈👍💪👩💼🤠. Yes . & Chuck Norris for Vice President .
As soon as Trump's second term is over!
@@bunkman64 I thought we were gonna stop having elections since trump was in we don’t need another president beside trump he gave us time to prepare for these liberals hostile take over
This has been a delight. Thanks for the upload!
Who's here from part one?
Can't believe they made him change the topic. He's so smooth and so legit he just flows with the garbage. Ted is awesome!
@BloomingdaleTN: It's interesting how this "cloistered," NYC audience laughs in certain segments whenever T.N. talks about hunting. I spent my early childhood in Missouri where all boys (and girls) know *how to handle* a shotgun by the age of 12-13. One of my fondest of memories was the last, deer hunt undertaken by all of the menfolk shortly before my Grandfather was killed in 1958. People of the city and suburbia do not "get it." Hunting for food is a "Rite of Passage" for men. Period.
Thanks again for uploading this, and keeping Comments on! God Bless Our Free America! 🇺🇸 ❤️ 🇺🇸 Love You Uncle Ted.
Guns are not the killers people are.
Thanks for sharing Rebecca. All the best & stay well !!!
