Ted Nugent - Cat Scratch Fever

This is a recent performance of the classic hard rock 70's song "Cat Scratch Fever" by Ted Nugent, of the album with the same title. The song is known for its simple three tone blues scale riff harmonized in parallel fourths.It's traditional rock 'n' roll, straight forward, one riff, attitude and a simple but rockin' guitar solo by Ted Nugent himself.
In 2009 the song was named the 32nd best hard rock song of all time by the VH1 television network.
It's a great ballsy performance, with Ted functioning at full throttle and energy level. Truly a great song, true rock 'n' roll.

Enjoy ; )

The Rolling Stones - Brown Sugar

This live performance is from the Martin Scorsese film "Shine a Light", a concert film by the Rolling Stones featuring some interviews and stuff, but for the most part a brilliantly directed concert film.
I have posted clips from this particular film previously. It's a great film and a good introduction to The Stones if you're new to them. It brilliantly captures their energy and performance on stage.
So if you don't already have this, go buy it!
The song "Brown Sugar" was released in 1971 on the album "Sticky Fingers". It's the opening track, and it has that hard rock bluesy riff and a musical breakdown where Bobby Keys can play a fantastic Saxophone part, just great. The song has that middle period Stones sound that is rock oriented, but still bluesy and with the bigger set-up of using a horn section. It's just a great song.
The song "Brown Sugar" was also ranked as no. 490 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest songs of all time. And it definitely is a great song, no doubt about that.

Enjoy ; )
