TED NUGENT To Reunite With AMBOY DUKES

March 18, 2009

According to Detroit Free Press, legendary rocker Ted Nugent will reunite with his former AMBOY DUKES bandmates for the first time in more than 30 years. They are expected to regroup on April 17 during the 18th annual Detroit Music Awards at the Fillmore Detroit, where the band is being presented the distinguished achievement award.

The AMBOY DUKES are best remembered for their hit single "Journey To The Center Of The Mind".

According to Wikipedia, the real Amboy Dukes were a Jewish street gang in Brownsville who were immortalized in Schulman's novel, The Amboy Dukes". They were the precursors of Murder Incorporated, the Jewish hit mob employed by the Mafia for its most violent executions and they were highly involved in drugs, so it is ironic that anti-drug rocker Ted Nugent should have used this name for his band.

Bassist Greg Arama died in 1979.
