TED NUGENT has released a special celebration edition of his 1995 “Spirit Of The Wild” album. It’s a limited LP edition done for the last Record Store Day (RSD) for the fist time on vinyl and including 2 previously unreleased tracks.

During the pre-production of the Vinyl reissue of ”Spirit of The Wild” for Record Store Day, producer Michael Lutz and long time Nugent drummer Jason Hartless dug into the archives and found two unreleased songs from the SOTW recording sessions: “Fan The Flame”, and “Guns”. Now these ‘lost tracks’ are added as bonus on this double vinyl LP reissue.
Additionally, there’s a Limited Edition (250 copies) EP Box Set titled “Fan The Flame”. It includes both songs plus an exclusive instrumental mix with extra guitar for the title track, plus a poster, sticker, backtage pass, etc.
“Spirit Of The Wild” ranks as one of Ted Nugent’s finest moments because it cuts away the filler and keeps the wild man’s tendency for indulgence in check. This album marked the return of Nugent’s original hard rock sound with the comeback of classic vocalist Derek St. Holmes.

Many fans lost trace of Ted Nugent during the Nineties. Well, in 1995 Ted released one of his best albums; “Spirit Of The Wild”. It’s a fiery hard rockin’ LP with a late Seventies feeling, the excellent Derek St. Holmes vocals, and monster Denny Carmassi on drums.

The ‘new’, found songs from “Spirit Of The Wild” sessions are a very cool find.
The sing’s riff of the song “Fan The Flame” reminds me of ‘Stranglehold’. The song does kick ass and I’m glad we get to hear it. I can say this is the Nugent we love. This is classic sounding as it gets.
The exclusive EP version ”Fan The Flame (1995 Instrumental Mix)” has more cool guitar licks on an already rocking track.

This is a very welcomed reissue of this highly underrated album. And we have previously unreleased material. All LP rips by 0dayrox team.
