This is the last Nugent album to feature singer/rhythm guitarist Derek St. Holmes, who was a major musical contributor to Ted's solo success. This recording is a consistently riveting listen from beginning to end, solidifying the success as an arena-headliner. The lineup on the album consists of the legendary-and-still-raging NUGENT on guitar and vocals, Derek St. Holmes (rhythm guitarist and the voice on Stranglehold) on guitar and vocals, Greg Smith (Rainbow) on bass and Mick Brown (Dokken) on drums.

May 02, 2019 I remember the first time I heard this album in the late 70's and loved it immediately for its catchy guitar riffs and energy. Although, Ted Nugent has many great albums in his album catalogue, 'Cat Scratch Fever' is still my favorite album from him.
