Nirvana would be maybe number one garage band. The Amboy Dukes were a garage band, so that’s not a negative that’s a positive. Spiraling downward with an assessment that contradicted what he had said just minutes earlier, Nugent carried on, “Joan Jett would be in the… certainly Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame and maybe the top 20 garage bands. Rambling some more, Nugent listed other guitarists who should have been in the list over Jett and stated that this is a matter of fact and not opinion, though he failed to mention any sort of international standard for rules and guidelines for judging guitar playing that would codify these things as fact (because such a thing does not exist and all rankings are subjective opinion). I didn’t think she was stupid now we know how stupid she is,” he added. I never said anything about how stupid she was. “Maybe the plastic has gone to her brain,” he said, suggesting Jett had at some point undergone plastic surgery. I never mentioned my name the top 100 guitar list - though someone might. Let’s pretend I’m just a keyboard player, or maybe a gay conga player. I didn’t even mention that I should be on the list. Don’t get all upset,” Nugent continued, “She calls me a racist and I’m jealous. Things turned quite ugly as Nugent then used this as an opportunity to excoriate her for her comments. But top 100 before Rik Emmett of Triumph? That’s a lie.” In an apparent criticism of rhythmic guitar playing, Nugent went on, “They play nice strumming guitars they play nice guitars. But she can’t be in the top 100 guitar player list - either of them.” love Joni Mitchell… People love that music. But I used her as an example - along with Joni Mitchell. love Joan - all I said is how I love her. The best garage band maybe ever, except for maybe Green Day. On his YouTube channel, Nugent addressed Jett’s words and began (transcription via Blabbermouth), “All I expressed in an interview on WRIF was how I love Joan and her killer rocking band. She then reminded the world that this supposed “tough guy” intentionally defecated in his pants during his youth as a means of dodging the draft for the Vietnam War. It took a few months for her retort, but Jett (a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, of which Nugent is not) recently told NME that it is typical for her to be written off before unloading on Nugent by saying it was “ punishment enough” that he has to be in his own body. He then proceeded to rattle off a dozen or so names of other guitarists he felt were worthy of inclusion over Jett. Jett recently clapped back hard in her dismissal of the controversial rocker, which has now drawn a reply from “The Nuge,” who called her “stupid” in a long-winded rant.Īgain, Nugent never made it clear why he had dredged up a nearly two-decade old ranking of guitarists, but he felt it pertinent to say that anyone who would place Jett within that hallowed top 100 must have “shit for brains” and that they had to be a “soulless prick” for including her. ![]() For reasons unexplained, Ted Nugent was fired up in late December over Rolling Stone‘s 2003 list of the 100 Greatest Guitar Players and criticized Joan Jett‘s inclusion among the bunch.
