career revival?
Regarding "It is also notable for being the album that revived the career of guitarist Ted Nugent" - seems kind of biased, what's the source?

I submit that Ted's career did not really need reviving. From Ted's wikipedia page "During the period of 1982–89, Nugent released a series of successful solo albums. In 1989, he joined the supergroup Damn Yankees,...". Actually, 4 albums between 82 - 88, that's four albums in six years, all the while constantly touring as a headliner. Many bands don't put out four albums in their entire career.

Therefore, removing any reference of Ted's career needing revival.

As a side note, Damn Yankees more accurately revived the career of Tommy Shaw. From Shaw's wikipedia page (paraphrased) since quitting Styx in '84, Shaw released 3 solo records (which resulted in one top 30 hit), toured opening for The Kinks and Rush.
