“Cat Scratch Fever” was recorded by Ted Nugent and appears on an album of the same name. The song is well known for its instantly recognizable signature riff, which is a 3-tone “blues scale” melody harmonized in parallel fourths. In 2009 it was named the 32nd best hard rock song of all time by VH1.

With a little time spent playing with the backing track even a beginner should be able to get this song under their belt in a couple hours. A classic riff based song well worth the time spent to learn.
