(с 1971 года Ted Nugent and the Amboy Dukes) — американская рок-группа, образовавшаяся в 1965 году в Детройте, штат Мичиган. Группа, в составе которой играл ставший известным впоследствии гитарист Тед Ньюджент, стала известной благодаря синглу 1968 года «Journey to the Centre of the Mind», поднявшемуся до #16 в списках Billboard Hot 100 и признанному впоследствии классикой эйсид-рока.
The Amboy Jukes в своём наиболее известном составе — Ньюджент (гитара), Джон Дрейк (вокал), Стив Фармер (ритм-гитара, бывший участник The Lourds), Дэйв Палмер (ударные), Грэг Арама (бас) и Энди Соломон (клавишные) — приобрели первую известность со вторым альбомом Journey To The Centre Of The Mind. После неудачи третьего альбома Migration, записанного с новым вокалистом Расти Дэем, гитарист некоторое время записывался и выступал с новым составом как Ted Nugent & the Amboy Dukes, после чего распустил группу и начал успешную сольную карьеру, завоевав репутацию одного из ведущих рок-гитаристов 1970-х годов..
The most prominent feature of Migration (the Amboy Dukes' third recording, originally released on Mainstream records) is the lack of a spaced-out follow-up to the group's biggest hit, "Journey to the Center of Your Mind." Perhaps "terrible" Ted Nugent was starting to win the drug war that was beginning to wage within the band, a war that would ultimately claim more than a few key lineup casualties. No matter the reason, Migration -- with it's less opaque drug references and general grooviness -- was given a cool reception at record stores as listeners perhaps became slightly confused about the Michigan band's intentions while pondering Nugent's relatively eclectic musical approach. Case in point: the spot-on version of Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers' "I'm Not a Juvenile Delinquent." Besides this bizarre but affective cover, other highlights include the instrumental opener "Migration" and one of Nugent's all-time favorite songs, "Good Natured Emma." More ambitious than the group's huge-selling effort from the year before, "Migration" might be the better of the two discs, if not the best of the Amboy Dukes' career.
