The guitar solo was recorded in a single take. "I used delays to create this really wild guitar duet with Ted," said producer Tom Werman. "It was like two guys were playing. I sent it off to Ted for his approval. He called me up and said, 'I love what you did with Stranglehold, but don't ever do that again without asking me.'"It became an entrance theme to the NHL team Chicago Blackhawks. It was also the entrance theme used by Kevin Von Erich in his professional wrestling career.

During his tenure with the San Diego Padres. relief pitcher Huston Street used the song as his entrance music. Relief pitcher Will Smith (pitcher) also used the song as his entrance music when he pitched for the Atlanta Braves.
