Ted Nugent "Love Grenade": Wildlife beware, the Nuge is back.

Everybody's favorite bow shootin', deer devourin', trash talkin' guitarist, Ted Nugent, has returned with another typically understated effort, "Love Grenade."

Also in stores: Suzy Bogguss, "Sweet Danger"; Manu Chao, "La Radiolina"; Cledus T. Judd, "Boogity, Boogity: A Tribute to the Comic Genius of Ray Stevens"; Pink Floyd, "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn"; Patty Scialfa, "Play It as It Lays"; and The Subdudes, "Street Symphony."
