cactus (coloured)

• 180 gram audiophile vinyl
• Contains the track "Let Me Swim", which later loosely inspired the guitar solo for Van Halen's "Eruption"
• Limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on translucent red coloured vinyl

The original plan for Cactus was to release a debut album with the super group line-up of Vanilla Fudge rhythm section bassist Tim Bogart and drummer Carmine Appice together with guitarist Jeff Beck and singer Rod Stewart, though Beck's car accident and Stewart joining Ron Wood in The Faces counteracted that.

Eventually joining Bogart and Appice were guitarist Jim McCarthy (Mitch Ryder's Detroit Wheels) and singer Rusty Day from Ted Nugent's Amboy Dukes for this self-titled album that is arguably the highlight in their catalogue.

Cactus is available as a limited edition of 1000 individually copies on translucent red coloured vinyl.
