Cactus, East town theater Detroit 1970s, Rusty Day,Jim McCarthy,Tim Bogart, Carmine Appice! Carmine Still Rocking! Great new Album Out! Thanks for the Memories!
Many, many nights spent at the old Eastown Theater. Never missed Cactus or Humble Pie for some of the hardest rock in a small 2500 seat venue. The place rocked, (even up on the mezzanine)
In 1971 I climbed through a bathroom window at the Syracuse War Memorial and saw Cactus. My first and definatly not my last rock concert. They say you never forget your first. LOL
@dan coleman The slow delivery kinda reminds me of The Doors. Check out the live ruclips.net/video/8pN_WmdCQMk/видео.html BTW thanks for turning me on to them.
Yes he is!! One of my alltime favourite rockguitarists, he played at the age around of 17 in Mitch Ryder's Detroit Wheels and in the Seventies in the Band Rockets!! Love his style of playing and met him after a concert here in Vienna, Austria!! Very nice guy!! Love Cactus!!
And don't forget about the two albums Jim McCarty did (pre Cactus) with The Buddy Miles Express: Expressway To Your Skull and Electric Church. RIP to Rusty Day.
If Carmine is on drums, it's Cactus. McCarty is also. Loved this band when I was a young man. I thought they faded away. Most of those guys are pretty old. Small Faces, Vanilla Fudge supergroup.
Nobody played the guitar like McCarthy, possibly he is not the best according to experts, but in him we can find creative outbursts of Hendrix, the technical flashes of Alvin Lee and jhonny winter without fuss but with mastery, and in him we can find the best of the best in rock blues
It's amazing that Carrmine Appice went from influencing John Bonham from Led Zeppelin, and his band Cactus influencing Van Halen but no one cares about him today.
Es un grupo demasiado bueno ,,para haberlo escuchado aquí en México ,,claro 70s,,el mejor rock de todos los tiempos ,,la mezcla de blues y Rock ,,,muy propios su estilo
Kick ass Rock and Roll. Don't need the make up like KISS or big light shows like most Rock groups .Great guitar Jim and Carmine fantastic at 65 Evangelist Roger Mansour former Leslie West Vagrants Drummer
In 2010 it would have been Werner Fritzschings on guitar as McCarty had left in 2008 but returned in 2011. Werner Fritzschings was guitarist on "Hot N' Sweaty" Cactus' 1972 album.
Jimmy McCarty never left Cactus when they were resurrected in 2006. He was going to quit after the 1st tour(2006) if Tim Bogert was to remain in the group. Tim quietly retired and is living in California.
Ted Nugent said McCarty is as important to rock and roll as Chuck Berry; obviously an exaggeration (as usual from Ted) but it shows how vast McCarty's influence is amongst other musicians.
Hate how everyone nowadays complaints about half stacks and stage volume....be more like cactus. more stack is more better. or at least one decent one per guy
Yo baterista, Chileno, escuché en el año 70 un Long Play 33 1/3 de Cactus traído de EEUU, me acuerdo de Tim Bogart, bajista, y del excelente batería, que aún está vigente.🏋♀️Idolo Carmine Appice, wonderful drummer. Since Chile 🇨🇱 great Remenber. Bye .
This guitarist is certainly very good but he is good for the style and fit in this particular band. I don’t know if you get what I’m trying to get across. He certainly has talent but as good as Beck I don’t think so. You must have access to some potent weed.
Beck was hardly talked about until he passed away, even though he was known as a great guitar player. He was too eclectic with his guitar sounds and it lessened the appeal of his songs. For me, he was at his best on Truth with the Jeff Beck Group. You could make a case for his Yardbirds stint.@@georgefustos7243
Jim McCarty has some great 1970s chops but it's hard to hear a distinct McCarty style. And he needed stage presence a bit more like Tim. Let Jimmy get histrionic and command the spotlight but Jim needs to lose the Lurch persona. -Doug Pratt, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
I could hear Alvin Lee of Ten Years After, Leslie West of Mountain and other popular guitarists of his day, in his sound. But you're right, no distinct sound. But so what, he sounds really good, and embellishes the sound, it's a welcome addition to the music.

@@MTW1340 I seen Humble Pie, J. Giels and Siegel-Schwall at the Eastown. Great night of Rock and Roll.
Ultimately The Best Rock Guitarist on canning sound you never get tired of
Older rocker legends know what to do. Keep on rocking.
Fantastic group, absolutely my all time favorite group. Carmine., the great

…now that’s what I call rock n roll Richard.My first was..SRV..in 83…then Motörhead a few months later in Melbourne Australia. (this is my Mrs acc 😂)
@@JulieCarey-y1n AWESOME!! 🤘
Jim McCarty is one of the most underrated guitar players ever. Listen to the studio version of Parchman Farm. It smokes.
I don't think he was underrated at all.
Yes he is!! One of my alltime favourite rockguitarists, he played at the age around of 17 in Mitch Ryder's Detroit Wheels and in the Seventies in the Band Rockets!! Love his style of playing and met him after a concert here in Vienna, Austria!! Very nice guy!! Love Cactus!!
@@marcgambell2767 He never got the recognition back in the day like Like Clapton, Hendrix , Page and Jeff Beck got.
Long taller sally
@@holygeneration7 who's they?
50 years later , i'm still there with !
That's some of the hottest guitar playing I've heard, wow!
Rockin' the joint tonight . Cactus does it up right once again
And don't forget about the two albums Jim McCarty did (pre Cactus) with The Buddy Miles Express: Expressway To Your Skull and Electric Church. RIP to Rusty Day.

Jim Mc Carty does it The Best
Es un grupo demasiado bueno ,,para haberlo escuchado aquí en México ,,claro 70s,,el mejor rock de todos los tiempos ,,la mezcla de blues y Rock ,,,muy propios su estilo
…hat’s off to the bass player…very cool. 🤘
Kick ass Rock and Roll. Don't need the make up like KISS or big light shows like most Rock groups .Great guitar Jim and Carmine fantastic at 65
Evangelist Roger Mansour former Leslie West Vagrants Drummer
The whole band is great the guitar player is really really good
Royale rock craddle......the pure chords & single notes one bye one.
Fantastic, thanks for uploading.
Jim McCarty.....unforgetable

Werner was good but not as hot Jim imho...I have 'ot &Sweaty somewhere! Lol
That is most definitely Jim McCarty! I'm from Detroit and I know the man.
🌵rock'n'roll yeah 🤟🎸🎸
Jim McCarty.... From Mitch Ryder to Cactus... Face melting blues rock....
Super blues 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
Not sure how you could remain sitting during that!
@nickjames46 You bet it is! He's a hell of a guitarist!
It should be the Big 4. Clapton, Beck, Page and McCarty !!! I'm sure Jim knows this and is aware that his fans know the real deal !!!
Ted Nugent said McCarty is as important to rock and roll as Chuck Berry; obviously an exaggeration (as usual from Ted) but it shows how vast McCarty's influence is amongst other musicians.
Grande band rock🌵
Whack-O good tunes
The Tim Bogert bass is missed. This dude is too basic to play with Carmine. He is stifling him.
agree
@@jameskummer9591 Glad I saw the original line up
I can’t hear the bass guitar ?
I dont think slash can play like this.....
slash is good but
Jim is definite guitar "god"
Slash is definitely one of the best, but this guy is much higher on that list.
Hate how everyone nowadays complaints about half stacks and stage volume....be more like cactus. more stack is more better. or at least one decent one per guy
Who does this complaining u speak of? Thts the lamest shit I ever heard 😆
What?
@RnRolla47 did u mean kissass singer?....and is that really Tim on bass?
does anyone have the lyrics for let me swim
So funny how Carmine Appice was jealous of Alex Van Halen being a better player than him.
Who is this kickass singer ?
Jimmy Kunes
@@markhaus2830 Jimmy "No Rest For Wicked" Kunes!
not too enthusiastic about the vocals, loved the baritone. liked morrison too, but he didnt have as good vocal dynamics, did he Thanks Just The Same.
Carmine Appice is so good it's disgusting.

That guitar player's a genius, better then Jeff Beck, and Page, Clapton - he's original
Tim is right up there with Beck, but Page and Clapton are wimps
@@marcgambell2767 That Jimmy McCarty from Detroit on guitar. Tim Bogart was the original bass player for Cactus :) Peace
@@marcgambell2767 Not wimps...... All great, just different.

I don't know, it seems to be working out nicely for him.
I could hear Alvin Lee of Ten Years After, Leslie West of Mountain and other popular guitarists of his day, in his sound.
But you're right, no distinct sound. But so what, he sounds really good, and embellishes the sound, it's a welcome addition to the music.
Terrible rendition of eruption
U know Eruption ripped this off I hope? I can't read sarcasm worth a shit so I had to ask.. Lol
@@danielwilson9724 yep sarcasm
