New recordings from Roy Jay and Mozart Season are also included, as well as a career-spanning DVD set from Jackson Browne. ‘Live Loud & Proud,’ Cactus (MVDvisual HHHH) Cactus was initially conceived as early as late 1969 by the Vanilla Fudge rhythm section of bassist Tim Bogert and drummer Carmine Appice with guitarist Jeff Beck and singer Rod Stewart from the already dissolved Jeff Beck Group. However, Beck had an automobile accident and Stewart joined Ronnie Wood in Faces. Appice and Bogert brought in blues guitarist McCarty from Buddy Miles Express and singer Rusty Day (who passed March 6, 1982) from Amboy Dukes to complete Cactus’ original 1970 line-up. The 2006 version with former Savoy Brown vocalist Kunes and Randy Pratt on harmonica is presented on this Aug. 24 DVD, as well as CACTUS V (reviewed Sept. 2, 2006). Highlights here include McCarty’s playing throughout, the sludgy groove of “Long Tall Sally,” the newer “Muscle and Soul,” the double-bass driven “Parchman Farm” and the “jam at NAMM” featuring Pat Travers, Warren Haynes and Joe Bonnamassa Quick Job Search joining the boogie trip. Lovers of heavy boogie-blues rock, get this one immediately. http://www.sunherald.com/2010/09/02/2448866/cactus -brings -the -boogie -roy -jay.html?stor ... 9/9/2010 Cactus brings the boogie, Roy Jay, Jackson Browne and Mozart Sason follow - Your Life ... Page 2 of 3 ‘Nightmares,’ Mozart Season (Equal Vision Records, HH) This July 20 CD is an EP, which means these guys (Nate Richardson/vocals, Benton Christensen/guitar, Sam Trux/guitar, Troy Cooper/bass and Luke Allen/drums) wanted to get something out quickly after signing with Equal Vision. The album was recorded at Fat Cat Studios with engineer Jay Top Jobs Trammell in March and will be available exclusively through MerchNow, digital retailers, and the band. Richardson, or someone, is able to sing; but gruff Cookie Monster hollering takes the place of normal CLICK FOR MORE PHOTOS vocals on most songs. Good harmonies sometimes happen behind the CM stuff, which is disconcerting but welcome. The songs have lots of musical muscle, but aren’t very listenable for yours truly. Lovers of CM vocals who don’t mind regular singing mixed in, grab it. ‘Fairfax Avenue,’ Roy Jay (Rock Ridge Music, HHHH) This bluesy Aug. 31 CD is Florida-based singer/songwriter Roy Jay’s first one that I’ve received. There are lots of blues and roots-rock flavored tunes here, with a groove that would inspire patrons to get up and shake it a bit. The other album, “Lucky Guy” is said to be more acoustic.
