That's right friends, Rusty Day's old band Cactus is now finally making a new studio album! It has been announced on Carmine Appice's facebook and twitter pages that a brand new studio album by Cactus will be released by the end of May 2016. It's gonna be called "Black Dawn". It's also gonna be teir very first studio album un eleven years. Since then, their original bassist, Tim Bogart, has retiree and has been replaced with someone named Pere Bremy. I hope he does justice for Tim on this new album. Can't wait to hear what they've got to offer! I've been looking forward to this for a LONG time!!!!!

And now that album is available! Cactus – Black Dawn (2016)Posted by Zorn on September 1, 2016 z320 kbps | 101 MB | UL | BF | Cactus, the band that was once heralded as America’s answer to Led Zeppelin, has returned with Black Dawn, a new studio album. Black Dawn is classic Cactus with a fresh new energy that the band has not had since its heyday in the early 1970s. Featuring original founding members Carmine Appice (drums, vocals); and Jim McCarty (guitars), along with bassist Pete Bremy; harp player Randy Pratt; and lead singer Jimmy Kunes; this version of Cactus Redux is sure to embrace not only its long time core fans but also a whole new generation of rock enthusiasts. “This is a whole new phase for Cactus,” says Carmine Appice. “We had a renewed energy when we got together to make this album, and it shows.” “We put in an enormous amount of time getting the feel of the record and the sound just right,” says Jim McCarty. “I would have to put my money down on the fact that there are not a lot of other bands out there right now, especially from our era, that rock as solid or as hard as Cactus does on Black Dawn.” Black Dawn leads the listener down on a righteous path of infectious rock classics and contains two previously unreleased studio tracks featuring the original line-up thus bridging the legendary old Cactus to the newer, re-fueled version. Formed in 1970 from the ashes of The Vanilla Fudge by Carmine Appice and Tim Bogert, the initial line up also featured McCarty and vocalist Rusty Day. While Cactus saw success from the start and soon built a loyal fan base, by early 1973, the band had collapsed. It would not be until 2010, two decades after the tragic death of Rusty Day, that the group reformed with the current line up. “We still have a lot of life left in this band,” says Appice. “Black Dawn is the just the beginning; if I have my way, Cactus is not going anywhere except upward and onward.”

Heath, have you and any others on here listened to this new album yet? I just sat through the whole thing once and sad to say it will probably be the one and only time I will ever willingly do this again. I did not like the singer at all. Yuck! Musically the album is just OK. Nothing great. Nothing stood out to me and nothing about it grabbed me and made me want to listen to it again. Not one track on the entire album.
For me, this album did not sound like the continuation of a musical legacy. It sounded more like a completely brand new band and brand new music from a band using the name of an old band. I can not say the new and the old sound anything alike. I do not see the connection based on the body of songs and work on this new album to any past Cactus albums.
Overall, I was not impressed at all. On a scale of 1 to 10 I would rate this album for listenability and appeal down around a 2 or 3 at best. I may not even keep a copy of this album. Over the years I have collected a ton of music on hard drives and I don't listen to a lot of it so one day I plan on doing a culling of music and will decide to keep or delete based solely on whether or not I will listen to it or want to listen to it. If not, it will be deleted and I am afraid this album fits into that category for me.
Sorry Heath, just not my kind of music. Not the Cactus of old.
I know the old band was sometimes referred to similar as a Led Zeppelin, but this newest album is too hard edged for me. Too close to heavy metal sounding.

I know the old band was sometimes referred to similar as a Led Zeppelin, but this newest album is too hard edged for me. Too close to heavy metal sounding. Only the first eight songs were of the current Cactus lineup. I agree how Jimmy Kunes is no Rusty Day. It's definitely not the same, and I too prefer the original lineup of the band, as well as Rusty Day's late 70's incarnation of the band. However, it doesn't sound like you heard the last two tracks. Those two actually were the original band. Carmine Appice (the drummer) dug them out of the vaults and had them polished up for official release, hence why they're on the album. Both of the two previously unreleased tracks are jams that were outtakes of the band's 1970 debut album. "Another Way Or Another" was a jam session that was cut from the first album. It was the jam where both "1 Way or Another" and "Song For Aires" both came from. "C-70 Blues" is the only track on the album with Rusty Day on vocals. It's the complete recording of a once edited song that was originally put out on "Cactus: Barley Contained" that was originally titled "The Sun Is Shining" or "Both Sides Of The Street".

In my record collection I have Iron Butterfly’s “In a Gadda Da Vida.” I love AC/DC and Led Zeppelin. I can listen to Ozzy Osbourne and Deep Purple. “Once Bitten Twice Shy” by Great White is played in my car all the time. So I do listen to hard rock.
I listened to the whole Cactus “Black Dawn” album. Cactus did nothing for me. If I had to pick a song I liked it would be “Another Way or Another”. This album is not one I would put in my music collection. For those that like the band I hope you are happy how the album came out. It is a great feeling when a band you love puts out new music.

For those that like the band I hope you are happy how the album came out. It is a great feeling when a band you love puts out new music. With the exception of "Another Way Or Another" and "C-70 Blues", I probably won't. I had high hopes for the whole album, but wasn't all that happy with the eight songs that the current "Cactus" did. Those last two tracks, though, "Another Way Or Another" and "C-70 Blues", which were outtakes of the original band's first album from 1970, are two tracks that I like a LOT!!!!! I LOVE the original Cactus, as well as Rusty Day's reformed Cactus from Florida. The Original idea of Cactus, formed by Vanilla Fudge's Carmine Appice & Tim Bogart, was to start a new band with Rod Stewart & Jeff Beck. However, with Beck's car accident that busted hus leg up pretty bad, and Rod's forming his own band called the Faces, Carmine & Tim ended up with the Amboy Dukes' Rusty Day & the Detroit Wheels' Jim McCarty. This lineup lasted from Dec 1969 to late 1971/early 1972, and did three albums ("Cactus (1970)", "1 Way Or Another (Early 1971)", & "Restrictions (late 1971)"). Rusty Day on vox, harmonica, & percussion 1969-1972; 1975-1979 Jim McCarty on guitar 1969-1971 Tim Bogart on bass & vox 1969-1972 Carmine Appice on drums 1969-1972 Ronnie Leejack on guitar & slide (very brief stint) 1971 www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCH_rCF1CbKa0ehBAKl0JmO7e7LaTqyL2After the departure of Jim, and later Rusty, Tim & Carmine tried a new approach with an unsuccessful fourth album called "Ot N Sweaty", which, like Black Dawn, only had two good tracks on it: "Bad Stuff" and a live version of "Let Me Swim". Carmine Appice still on drums TIm Bogart still on bass Peter French on vox 1972 Werner Fritzchings on guitar 1972 Duane Hitchings on keys 1972 Tim & Bogart left soon after that album to finally join Jeff Beck, as originally planned, to form what is currently known as the Beck, Bogart, & Appice band. This left the name of Cactus on the shoulders of keyboardist Duane Hitchings, who made a lineup of a "New Cactus Band" that didn't last even half a year. The only song on their only album worth being noticed is "Blue Gypsy Woman". After having moved to Longwood, Florida from Detroit, Michigan in 1975, Rusty Day allegedly placed an ad in the Rolling Stone saying, "I'm reforming Cactus. I need exceptionally good bass player, guitarist, and drummer. Rusty Day, Longwood, FL (phone number)." Steve Dansby, (who played for and with Frijid Pink, Mitch Ryder, and Ted Nugent) answered the call as guitarist, John Sauter (from the Ted Nugent band) answered the call as bass player, and Gary Moffatt (formerly of the Pat Travers band, later to be of .38 Special) answered the call as drummer. This was the longest lasting lineup of the 1970's Cactus lineups. Although it's been rumored that they've recorded demos and attempts at making new albums, no studio recordings of this lineup have every surfaced. Hopefully someday they will. But for now, we can only listen to the few live soundboard/audience recordings of them that do exist. Rusty Day back on vox, harmonica, & percussion 1975-1979 Steve Dansby aka "Kahoutek" on guitar 1975-1979 John "Soybean Slim" Sauter on bass 1975-1979 Gary "Madman" Moffatt on drums 1975-1979 www.guitars101.com/forums/f90/cactus-1978-05-xx-ocala-fl-soundboard-133849.htmlwww.guitars101.com/forums/f90/cactus-1978-10-29-bradenton-fl-133840.htmlwww.guitars101.com/forums/f90/cactus-1979-06-15-jacksonville-fl-133842.htmlDue to a drug deal gone horribly wrong, Rusty Day was murdered on June 3rd 1982 inside his own house, along with his son, guest Garth MacGrae, and dog Pluto. The address was reported to be 173 Parson's Rd in Longwood. The only known suspect, guitarist Ron Sanders, was killed at a police shootout at his own home 3 weeks later due to different charges. This led to the case of Rusty's murder never being solved, even now. In 2005, Jim McCarty, Carmine Appice, & Tim Bogart reunited in the studio for a simple jam session. Long time friend of the original band, professional harmonica player Randy Pratt, joined in to jam with them too. They soon came up with the idea to form a new lineup of Cactus with a fifth person to sing. That person ended up being Jimmy Kunes, who had sang with Savoy Brown decades previously. Tim retired in 2008, which is when bassist Pete Bremy stepped in. This is the lineup of the band that has been ever since. Jim McCarty on guitar 2005-present Tim Bogart on bass & vox 2005-2008 (later replaced by Pete Bremy 2008-present) Carmine Appice on drums 2005-present Randy Pratt on harmonica 2005-present Jimmy Kunes on vox 2005-present

onlygoodsong.blogspot.com/Cactus - Black Dawn - 2020 Coming off a very successful US tour and the release of its first studio album in 10 years, Black Dawn, the time has come for founding member and world renown drummer Carmine Appice to re-energize and rebuild Cactus. The band was once heralded by critics as America’s answer to Led Zeppelin. Appice announced today two new members to the legendary band’s line-up: bassist Jimmy Caputo and guitarist Paul Warren. Caputo replaces bassist Pete Bremy, who has left Cactus to pursue other projects. Warren, best known as lead guitarist for Rod Stewart, Tina Turner and Joe Cocker, will be the band’s new guitarist for touring, taking over for founding member Jim McCarty. McCarty remains a writing and recording member of Cactus but unfortunately i s unable to tour with the band due to health reasons. Lead vocalist extraordinare Jimmy Kunes and harmonica wizard Randy Pratt, both of whom joined when the band re-grouped in 2006 remain in the line-up. “Nearly five decades after I formed this band, the time has come to re-invent Cactus once again,” says Appice, who also still drums for Vanilla Fudge, The Appice Brothers, and The Platinum Rock All Stars. Adds Appice: “The music remains the same and Cactus is still a ‘hot and sweaty’ band. The level, quality and consistence of the band’s musicianship is as strong as ever.” "I saw the original Cactus live a few times, and they absolutely killed it,” says guitarist Paul Warren. “That was one of the great bands of the era, and they are still a great band, today. I am excited, and honored, to play with such an historic band!” Warren, who has his own successful solo band, is a native of Detroit and who considers Jim McCarty as one of his biggest musical influences. “"Filling in for Jim McCarty will be a challenge. Not only is he a founding member of the band, he is a brilliant guitarist and one of the best to ever come out of Detroit. Jimmy could never be replaced. I plan to honor and pay homage to his work with Cactus while still bringing some of my own ‘Detroit attitude’ to the legendary music of this band.” Bassist Jimmy Caputo has worked in a myriad of national touring acts including The Appice Brothers Drum Wars show, which also includes both Carmine and his brother Vinny. Cactus returned in 2016 with Black Dawn, a new studio album, its first in almost 10 years. Featuring the blistering riff-rock that the band built its reputation upon, Black Dawn is a classic Cactus album with a fresh new energy that the band has not had since its heyday in the early 1970s. The band has had a long and turbulent history. Formed in 1970 from the ashes of The Vanilla Fudge by Carmine Appice and Tim Bogert. the initial line up also featured McCarty and vocalist Rusty Day. (Appice and Bogert had originally planned a new band with Jeff Beck which was put off until 1973 because of Beck’s near fatal car crash in 1969). Jim McCarty had come from Mitch Ryder & The Detroit Wheels and was playing with The Buddy Miles Express. Tim and Carmine also found vocalist Day in The Amboy Dukes with Ted Nugent. Together, the four musicians formed Cactus, named after the peyote cactus, which provided a key ingredient in mind-altering drugs. While Cactus saw success from the start and soon built a loyal fan base, by early 1973 the band had collapsed mainly due to lack of real support from its label and the fact that Beck was now ready play with Carmine and Tim. It would not be until 2006, three decades after the tragic death of Rusty Day that the group reformed with Pratt and Kunes to record CACTUS V and play Sweden Rock. When Tim Bogert was forced into retirement due to complications after a serious motorcycle accident, Pete Bremy joined on bass in both in Cactus and Vanilla Fudge. Now, with Jimmy Caputo and Paul Warren onboard, Cactus embarks on a new and exciting musical journey – just as powerful as before – and bound to be just as successful...one way or another.

Unfortunately, Jim McCarty has since retired from the band, and Pete Bremy has moved on to work on other projects (both of these two members were in the lineup that reordered the eight new songs on Black Dawn). Now they have a new guitarist and bass player, and band founder Carmine on drums is the only original member left in the band. I've heard the new lineup, particularly their new guitarist, isn't as nearly as good as either Jim McCarty, Steve Dansby, or even Werner Fritzing. The current lineup was supposed to be releasing a new album of their own last year, called Tightrope. However, COVID ruined those plans, as well as that of their tour for it. Now the album is set for a 2021 release date. I have mixed emotions about this new album being made to begin with, honestly.......

Guys, today is a sad day for rock & roll, and for Cactus fans. I've just received word that for the first time since the death of Rusty Day, we have lost an original Cactus member today. Tim Bogert, the bass player, who was also in Vanilla Fudge, Beck Bogert Appice, and other band projects. No word yet on how it happened, though. Just that it happened. He will live on through the music of all of those bands, for sure!

Never heard of the "New Cactus Band" until this blogger posted this: blog.dnevnik.hr/zinhof/?page=blog&subdomain=zinhofBLUES IMAGE - Blues Image (1969) + Red White & Blues Image (1970) [2005] & Open (1970) Blues Image was a group from Tampa, Florida that achieved a brief yet strong burst of critical acclaim and commercial success in the late 60s and early 70s. Known for mixing blues, Latin music, smooth pop, and other styles, their most successful song was the soft rock hit "Ride Captain Ride", a release from their 1970 album 'Open' that went all the way to #4 in Billboard. A well-respected band among their peers (Jimi Hendrix notably told the British press that Blues Image was one of the best up and coming bands around)... The group was formed in Tampa, FL, in 1966 by Michael Pinera (guitar, vocals), Manuel Bertematti (percussion), and Joe Lala (drums). Malcolm Jones (bass) joined in 1966, followed in 1968 by Frank "Skip" Konte (keyboards). The band moved to New York City in 1968 and managed a club called the Image. Then they moved to Los Angeles, where they signed to Atlantic Records' Atco division in February 1969, and released their self-titled debut album. This was followed by Open (1970), which featured "Ride Captain Ride." But the Blues Image never followed their hit. Pinera left, replaced by Kent Henry (guitar) and Dennis Correll (vocals). Then the Blues Image broke up. A third album, Red White & Blues Image, was compiled from outtakes. Skip Konte joined Three Dog Night, while some other band members reformed as Manna. Pinera later was a member of Iron Butterfly, then Ramatam, and, with Bertematti, the New Cactus Band. He also formed a band called Thee Image and worked as a solo artist. Lala became a Los Angeles session player and worked with Joe Walsh and the various manifestations of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, among others.

Jimmy Kunes (vocals) and Paul Warren (guitar) have left the band. The guys they have now? HOLY CRAP, this feels so much more closer to Rusty’s original band!!!!!!
Now the band’s lineup is this: Carmine Appice (drums) James Caputo (bass) Teddy Rondinelli (guitar) & Jim Stapley (vocals and harp)
