THE AMBOY DUKES
\ USA - MAINSTREAM RECORDS - 6125
Original 1970 VINYL first pressing on the highly collected 'Mainstream' Records label. One of the best albums money can buy when talking THE AMBOY DUKES....
Detroit's Amboy Dukes are best remembered for their 1968 acid-rock classic "Journey to the Center of the Mind," as well as introducing the world to "the Motor City Madman", guitarist Ted Nugent. The hard and heavy garage crew made three notable Lp's now sought collectibles for the "Mainstream" Records label from 1967 through 1969. Nugent would later explain, "There never really was a break-up of the Amboy Dukes. It just got to be such a revolving door mentality with the musicians. I was so upset internally with the amount of effort I was putting out with the constant human battering I was doing with the musicians. I was bailing them out of jail for breaking into a Coke machine or because they got caught with a joint. I felt like I was a babysitter. I also acted as a road manager. I used to book the band. I used to maintain all the equipment. I used to change the oil in the cars. I used to drive the truck and set it up. I handled all the hotels. I kept all the ledger books. I did everything. So for the first time in my life ( after the third album) I took a year off. It was too loony".
Nevertheless the mighty Amboy Dukes delivered a legacy and their best tracks ('67 - '69) were grouped together by Mainstream Records on this scarce & powerful 1970 release The Amboy Dukes "Best Of" which contains the motorcity madmen on fire...!
