    "The arrival of the white buffalo is like the second coming of Christ, says Floyd Hand, a Sioux medicine man from Pine Ridge, S.D., who was one of the first to make the pilgrimage. It "will bring about purity of mind, body and spirit, and unify all nations, black, red, yellow, and white."
    There are countless stories about the White Buffalo, a different tale for every tribe.
    "Many years ago, says Tony Ironshell of the Rosebud Sioux tribe in South Dakota, three hunters encountered a white buffalo calf. The white buffalo turned into a woman and instructed the hunters to return to their village and prepare for her arrival. When she came four days later, she carried the sacred pipe. With that pipe she brought Sioux laws, and many things changed. The pipe from the White Buffalo Calfwoman is still kept in South Dakota.
    In their ancient White Buffalo Dance, the Fox Indians of Wisconsin shadow the vision of a legendary hunter, who could turn himself into a white buffalo at will after the beast appeared to him in a dream. A white buffalo with red eyes and horns, says the Fox, gave the hunter the power to single-handedly turn back an army of attacking Sioux.

    I've heard people slamming his politics throughout the years that wouldn't even give a listen to him, damn his beliefs, this is not about that, Ted wasn't ever awarded what he truly deserved for his playing, the man is a true genius with a Gibson, and my admiration for him playing 50 years clean and sober is something to behold , when so many great talents lost it all because of a lifestyle that didn't have to happen..............Rock on Ted

      OK, fine, but how I wish Mr. Nugent would give credit to his black American predecessors for the music he's playing! A music that was developed out of the pain of slavery and being segregated and persecuted and lynched afterwards. That's not too much to ask for, is it? To show solidarity with your fellow Americans regardless of their color, religion, ethnicity, sexual preference, etc.

      SamuraiSamara 69 that's kinda like asking every contemporary rock singer like robert plant or eddie vehler that played music based off the blues to do that. Why can't they just play the music, regardless of their race? Music should not be restricted as to being given credit to a certain group, it's a culmination of human effort in creation. Like it or not, a delta blues Son House track sounds totally different to a Led Zeppelin album. And Ted has shown appreciation, he has praised chuck berry, bo diddley, aretha franklyn, etc

    This song is a masterpiece. The man playing the Gibson Byrdland is a master guitar player and is second to none. This man is a living legend. In 300 years people will think of him the same way people of today think of Beethoven or Mozart or Bach. No human has ever controlled tone in a guitar better than this man. He can make it cry, or sing like a song bird or growl like a wolf. This man is a guitar virtuoso. He is the motor city madman. This man is Theodore Anthony Nugent.

    Classic 70s guitar shredding. More musical playing from guitar players back then. And more melody because it wasn't only about speed. You built it up and climaxed into the faster parts, with hills and valleys. A lost art of sorts.

      Analogy! Exactly they draw your Emotions in, & build up to the encore,,, its really artistic with an emotional thinf, keeps you on the edge of your seat.But todays shredding, fast isnt playing, just doesn't make any sense to me, theres no Rhythm or Feeling/Soul in todays crazyness.I'm a guitar player of 40 + years, music is about Emotions; Music is the "Universal Language ". Shredding is a phase like Disco. That's my opinion, oh shredding isn't difficult either, it's not musical in any way shape or form. Music is about a emotion shredding proves that people's emotions are crazy & not in toutch with the real art form called music.

      You know Dina, there never was a guitarist that could carry off a 12 min workout like Hibernation.. I don't think he plays it live so much these days. First time I saw him in London on the 'If It's Too Loud You Are Too Old Tour' .. he certainly did then and of course the immortal and definitive version on Double Live Gonzo was close after. The reason no one else could do a 'Hibernation' is that Ted really feels it and plays his heart out. Inspired stuff and knocks me out as much now as it did then. Yeah, no one else touched a Byrdland lol! No one, couldn't handle it. Hibernation is a staggering and beautifully put together piece, in the days when Ted never mentioned the old hunting business, it was more symbol and metaphor plus awesome attitude. The Double Live Gonzo version is the one that really smashed through the Van Allen belt of guitar work. :-)

      Ted definitely respected Hendrix’s guitar playing but you definitely said it well. This song pushes the line between music and art. So many emotions. So many stories the mood of each note tells. Hendrix definitely could rock some blues in a dreamy way but I agree with you; this song wouldn’t come out of the feelings of Hendrix’s. Only Ted could truly feel the vibe of this song and rock it.

One time in Concord CA I was in a record store and heard he was playing that night. I looked into the tickets and got two tickets in the front row, center...held back until two hours before the concert opened for people who WORKED and weren't sure they could make the concert.

      I will have to agree with you on that one, that's why he sounded so damn good with the Damn Yankees he wasn't the sole guitar or songwriter he pretty much just did the solos and fills and he was awesome with Damn Yankees, he sounded completely different playing his PRS

    It's amazing how he confronts the feedback, tames it, and rides it like his b*tch. Many would be intimidated by standing directly in front of the amplifier stack and let the feedback build momentum where there is no room for error. That's where Ted chooses to make his stand as if in battle chipping away at the silence that once occupied that very space until it becomes a sculpture of defiance against the nothingness that existed before. Incredible.

      @@jimkostan9932 Of course. It's great showmanship. Been going to concerts since age 13. Worked in bars with live bands for a decade before I got tired of the tug of war between raising children and working nights. I have had many friends who performed fulltime back in the 90's before karaoke replaced them because it's cheaper. Even now I have a young neighbor who recently lost his voice singing death metal to which I pointed out the different tricks of the trade to sooth his vocal cords, tea and honey etc, and showed him the DVD Unledded with Page and Plant and how Robert used female back up singers (one of which he later married) because he can't hit the high end of his vocal register. He was too young to see such an evolution in a musical career so it was new to him. I was just being poetic to show my admiration to that window of time called the 70's.

They heard him 40 miles away. Great show and Lynyrd Skynyrd was there along with 38 Special . Six dollar ticks back then, in 1977.

    Now being a Nugent fan since the early 70's, having seen him in concert 50 + times, as well as not only meeting him, but also got to talk to him for a few minutes. It is hard to argue this, however, The Nuge himself said to me...

    Straight into Fender twins at extremely high volume using his controls, fingers, and creative mind.

This piece was one of the turning points in my guitar playing career. 5 yrs old in 1976 when I first heard this. Been playing ever since!
