Right on Carmine......Cactus kicked ass. First time I heard Parchman Farm, it knocked my socks off! Great riffs, stellar musicianship and yes...a big influence. Never knew why it didn't sell more. Absolutely right up there with Cream, Zep, Hendrix, Purple, etc. as far as I'm concerned. I read that John Bonham called you "the Father of modern hard rock drumming".
Great band. The first time I heard Parchman Farm in the original version at the LP Cactus I wondered how they could play it in that tempo. Incredible.
ferocious riffs. for some reason, no one can write killer music like this nowadays.

Long live Cactus, one of the best blues based rock band of the 70's. Big influence on me for sure!
