Spirit of the Wild is the eleventh studio album by American hard rock musician Ted Nugent. It was released in May 1995 by Atlantic Records. The album was produced by Mike Lutz from the Brownsville Station rock band and engineered by Lutz and Jim Vitti. It is Nugent's only album released in the 1990s.
Spirit of the Wild marked the return of Nugent's original sound of hard rock instead of the pop metal style of his '80s solo work, as well as the brief return of vocalist and guitarist Derek St. Holmes. "Spirit of the Wild" is the theme song for Nugent's hunting TV show Spirit of the Wild. The sixth track "Fred Bear" is a tribute to the bowman Fred Bear.
