Great boot, had this a couple of years ago.
I love CactUS! Keep on posting Bogert/Appice! Cheers!
Thanks for the great post.
Just imagine what this band could have been if the original slated guitarist, Jeff Beck, had not instead wrecked his sports car, putting him out of action for 6 months.
By the way, dbetree has this show dated 1-2-71, but they list the city as garden City, NY, where WLIR had it's broadcast facilities, not Hempstead, NY, where the show actually took place.
It's great to find concerts from the "American led Zep"
Many, Many Thanks!!!!!!!!
great post man, many thanks, this was surely an underrated band
i'd never heard Cactus before...downloaded and loving it...thanks for the great blog
Thank you so much for sharing!! One of the lost treasures of the 70s!!! They should have been over the top!!
Never mind Beck - Jimmy did just fine ripping it up!
