Stranglehold baby........

I was listening to Ted Nugent's stranglehold , I simply love the song. I remember when I was discussing with my friend that if I ever learn to play guitar and were to perform a guitar solo then which one would be my first choice then I chose this. A close second would be Eddie Hazel's Maggot Brain solo , it is awe inspiring and hair raising. Very few guitar solos have been shaped so beautifully and  I'm totally in love with it.
So what is it about Stranglehold that I love it so much ( more than even Freebird or STH). It is like the feeling  I get when I watch Twister ; I am out there a stormchaser and I see the tornado approaching , should I flee or wait? I chose to wait and as I wait Ted Nugent is searing the canals of my ears with the warm ascending solo building up slowly and reaching the pleasure zone of my brain. I experience each and every step and beat of the steadily rocking ride. I am waiting for the big jerk that I will experience when I hit the wall and that drives me crazy. Yes Stranglehold , I do not know if I will treat my baby this way of she were ever to do wrong but Ted would definitely make me think twice and .............ha ha ..........yeah baby Stranglehold
