Marblehead Posted June 10, 2014 electric contentment? I actually have one of their songs in my collection. It is their cover of the Son House song "Death Letter". They did a good job with it too. Â I just started up a different group this morning. They didn't stay together very long but did do some good Heavy Metal stuff: Â Â Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark Foote Posted June 10, 2014 Too many studio effects in that one for me, Marblehead- but what a great band (that I never heard of)! Â 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted June 10, 2014 For me, this is one of only a few bands who's live recordings sound better than their studio recordings. Â When the band was going to reform with new members it was supposed to include Rod Steward and Jeff Beck but something happened to Beck (a broke arm?) and couldn't start for a couple months and Rod was out of work and need a job so he joined the Faces instead. Â A New Cactus Band was eventually formed but never became popular. Â The original Cactus Band was doing things with their music that the people weren't ready for yet and that is why most people never heard of them. And they weren't being played on radio very much at all except maybe at 2:30 in the morning local time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted June 11, 2014 Okay, that was good. Where are the other members of the band? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vanir Thunder Dojo Tan Posted June 12, 2014 Okay, that was good. Where are the other members of the band? Â it would be even better if it were actually a band, no? Â I think it's jsut the one guy doing drum loops with his computer... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted June 12, 2014 Â it would be even better if it were actually a band, no? Â I think it's jsut the one guy doing drum loops with his computer... Yeah, he was feeling good about what he had learned and wanted to see himself and imagine he had a band. We might see him in a band one day - never know. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark Foote Posted June 14, 2014 thanks for that about Cactus, Marblehead- wonderful chords, I need to give another listen. Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted June 14, 2014 Ah! Old timey music. Hehehe. Â I loved Crosby, Stills & Nash. Then Young joined the group and love was lost. I'm not being ngative about Young, it's just that I was never able to connect with his music. Â Same with Todd. Really great artist! No connection. Â I'm listening to Deep Purple this morning.
