Ted Nugent – Sweden Rocks (Eagle DVD)

 

Picture: C     Sound: C+     Extras: C     Concert: C+

 

 

Ted Nugent may have his politics and be controversial on his hunting issues, but his commitment to Rock Music is inarguable and he continues to deliver his music without the age and lack of energy of so many of his contemporaries.  A while ago, we covered Full Bluntal Nugety, which you can read about at this link:

The new concert has more of the same energy, but something is a bit off this time as Nugent and company run through the following songs:

 

1)     Stormtroopin’

2)     Wango Tango

3)     Snakeskin Cowboys

4)     Free For All

5)     Wang Dang Sweet Poontang

6)     Kldtrphmky

7)     Raw Dogs & War Hogs

8)     Soul Man

9)     Hey Baby

10)  Dog Eat Dog

11)  Still Raising Hell

12)  Motor City Madhouse

13)  Cat Scratch Fever

14)  Stranglehold

15)  Great White Buffalo

 

 

He is good, but it is just not as consistent a concert as it should or could be, though still better than his many contemporaries.  He can even still sing and act nuts, whi9ch is part of the whole point, but this might not be the place you want to start if you want to be introduced to his musical side.

 

The anamorphically enhanced 1.78 X 1 image is far softer than it should be for a recent taping, not HD and static in the actual shoot.  The DTS 5.1 is better than the Dolby Digital 5.1 and 2.0 mixes, but the audio in all cases is a little muddier and shrill than a recording from June 2007 (or 1997) should be.  Extras include two hunting featurettes, an interview and three bonus tracks.
