The Amboy Dukes were an American rock music band of the late 1960s and early 1970s from Detroit, Michigan, best remembered for their hit single "Journey to the Center of the Mind", and for launching the career of Ted Nugent.

The band went through a number of personnel changes during its active years. The group helped in the foundations of heavy metal and progressive rock.
