4.0 out of 5 stars The Last Classic Dukes, June 16, 2003

By 

AudioObscurica (United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Migration (Audio CD)

This is the last Mainstream album by The Amboy Dukes, released in 1969. By this point Rusty Day was now the lead vocalist, and wasn't a bad one at that. Nugent finally pushes himself out front for an instrumental (the title track), and on the next Dukes album he'd take it further and dominate nine minutes of space. Of course, Migration actually comes off quite well, the title track isn't too Nuge-ed up, and the others seem to creep in and out. The tracks hold up fairly well, and don't sound, say a lot older than they really are. The hindrance from this being a five-star CD is that the single edit of "Prodigal Man" was used for this reissue. "I'm not a Juvenile Delinquent" was tweaked to remove much of the pop and crackle that was put there purposely. Also, the bonus tracks were audition recordings dating back before the first album, only Nugent and Farmer remained from that lineup to this one. In other words, they are very out of place. It's a good album, but this lineup would last only for this album. It's a shame, because they shone so brightly and stood out from the other lineups. Maybe event the whole rock crowd.

4.0 out of 5 stars 60s raw energy, February 12, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Migration (Audio CD)

This album is Ted Nugent in his early days. His unbridled raw energy is felt through the entire album. Side "A" has only three songs with lots of solos. This album brings back memories of the times and tribulations of the 60s beforeWoodstock. The memories this album brings back are to a time of peace and love and are haunting. And the philosophy of the song "Of Shades of Green and Grey" give me a warm feeling in my heart.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, but not the best., October 4, 1999

Of all the Amboy Duke CDs, why have we not gotten Marriage on the Rocks, Rock Bottom yet? Now that was an innovative and technically superior album. C'mon Ted, give it up!!!!
