"Weekend Warriors" is an album by Ted Nugent. It was released in 1978, and was the first Ted Nugent album not to feature Derek St. Holmes until Nugent in 1982. Instead Charlie Huhn the new guitarist for Ted Nugent performed on the album and several other albums until Derek St. Holmes came back.
The front sleeve-art was by British artist Jeff Cummins and was originally commissioned by OUI magazine, to accompany an interview with Nugent. Nugent liked what he saw and the artwork was recommissioned By CBS, with additional work being carried out for use as the album sleeve.
Album Description:The lyrics of "Weekend Warriors" describe a group of individuals who work hard during the week and then let loose on the weekends. Nugent sings about the joys of getting together with friends, drinking, and partying. He also references his love of hunting and shooting, declaring that he is a "weekend warrior" who lives for the thrill of the hunt. The song "Weekend Warriors" is a reflection of Ted Nugent's personality and values. He is a self-proclaimed "outdoorsman" who believes in the importance of individual freedom and self-reliance. The song's lyrics suggest that Nugent sees the weekend as a time to let loose and have fun, and he embraces this lifestyle wholeheartedly. However, the song also reveals some of the darker aspects of Nugent's worldview. He sings about the thrill of the hunt and the joy of killing animals, which can be seen as glorifying violence and cruelty. Additionally, the song's emphasis on partying and drinking can be seen as promoting a potentially dangerous lifestyle. |

Epic A&R turned hit-maker: the guy who helped polish hard rock into arena-sized trouble. Read more... Tom Werman, I think of him as the sonic chiropractor of late-70s/80s rock: he cracks the songs into place and suddenly the chorus stands up straight. He started at Epic Records in 1970, then left fingerprints on Cheap Trick (1977-1978), Ted Nugent (1977), Blue Oyster Cult (1979), and a long Molly Hatchet stretch (1978-1983). Then came the glam-metal fireworks: Motley Crue (1983-1987), Twisted Sister (1984), Poison (late 1987-1988), and Kix (1988). Tom Werman Wiki |
