Cactus have shared a new video for “The Little Red Rooster” featuring Dee Snider (Twisted Sister) and Tracii Guns (L.A. Guns). You can watch that below. The track is from the band’s new album, “Temple Of Blues II,” which will be released on April 3.
Carmine Appice commented:
“It was great working on ‘The Little Red Rooster’ with Dee and Tracii. I arranged it with the drums first, then sent it to Artie Dillion and Ed Terry for their feedback. We created the demo with Ed’s amazing vocals for Tracii, Dee and James Haslip who finished the song. Ed was gracious sitting on the sidelines for this one so Dee could sing the lead vocals. It was such an honor to have Dee on the song and to have him make an appearance in the video, especially since he’s retired now. The song rocks!”
Snider added:
“Cactus! The name conjures such amazing memories for me. An inspiration for the rock I would play in the years to come. Can you imagine what it was like to ‘get the call’ that your heroes want you to rock with them? Mind-blowing! And now to be asked for second time!? What a treat to dig into a blues classic like ‘The Little Red Rooster’ with Cactus!!! Hell yeah!!”
