(2022) Cactus - The Birth of Cactus - 1970
Review:
A stunning, historic vintage live show unearthed from the archives of the very first public performance by classic rock heores Cactus, appearing on a bill with The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Grateful Dead and Steve Miller Band! The concert featured Cactus playing several tunes from its 1970 self-titled debut, as well as select songs from its second and third albums – 1971’s One Way…or Another and Restrictions. Cactus was formed by Vanilla Fudge drummer Carmine Appice and bassist Tim Bogert around the time of their group’s initial breakup. The band’s original lineup also included singer Rusty Day of The Amboy Dukes and guitarist Jim McCarty of Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels. Appice recalls of Cactus’ first gig, “I remember…hanging out with Hendrix who was a friend of Cactus. We got on stage and the energy level was off the charts! All the songs kicked major a**. We were so excited to get Cactus going and this show helped. Crowd was great and we did ROCK!!”
