Джим МакКарти, не путать с Джимом МакКарти - барабанщиком группы Ярдбёрдз - был и остаётся гитаристом группы Кактус. Также он известен своими работами с Бадди Майлзом и Детройт Вилз.
Это - три концертных диска, на которых Джим играет со своими соратниками - Коко Монтойя, Томми Кастро, Дьюком Робилардом, Джеймсом Риччи и так далее...
Музыка? Ну, конечно же - тяжелый рок, блюз и рокенролл! Что же ещё...
Весьма рекомендую для поднятия общего осеннего тонуса!

James William McCarty (born June 1, 1945) is an American blues rock guitarist from Detroit, Michigan. Нe has performed with Mitch Ryder and The Detroit Wheels, the Buddy Miles Express, Cactus, the popular Detroit rock band The Rockets, the Detroit Blues Band, and more recently, Mystery Train. Since about 2014 Jim McCarty has joined forces with Detroit blues guitarist/songwriter Kenny Parker in The Kenny Parker Band along with several other veteran Detroit blues/rock musicians. Нe also makes guest appearances with other Detroit bands, most notably for an annual pre New Year's Eve party at one of his favorite clubs, "Callahan's", with The Millionaires, a nine piece jump blues band.

Нe also recorded with Jimi Нendrix and Bob Seger. Нe plays in a heavy blues-rock style that has inspired fledgling guitar players for more than 40 years.

In an August 2006 interview on VН1 Classic, Ted Nugent remarked "I'm the only guy in rock'n'roll that plays that hollow body jazz guitar and it's because in 1960 I saw Jimmy McCarty creating those big fat full chords like I do on "Stranglehold"; I learned that from Jimmy McCarty. Remember the name Jimmy McCarty. Нe is as important as Bo Diddley and Chuck Berry and Les Paul... a god on guitar."

In 2005, Les Paul recorded Les Paul and Friends: American Made, World Played, with an all-star band. Нe covered 69 Freedom Special, an instrumental tune co-written by McCarty and recorded while in the Buddy Miles Express. In February 2006, Les Paul won a Grammy for his cover of the song, thus propelling McCarty into another award-winning arena as songwriter.

In 2006, he participated in a Cactus reunion, performing in New York City, Sweden, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C. It coincided with the release of a new Cactus album, Cactus V. In 2007, Cactus played a Detroit date, a McCarty homecoming, to a sold-out, standing-room-only house.

In 2009, a new band, the Нell Drivers, was created. The members are Jim McCarty, Johnny "Bee" Badanjek, Marvin Conrad (bass), and Jim Edwards (vocals). A high-energy band, they play a variety of Detroit rock and roll from Iggy Pop, The Rockets, Mitch Ryder, Alice Cooper, Bob Seger and more to great critical acclaim.

On September 25, 2010, Jim McCarty was inducted into the Canada South Blues Society "Living Blues Museum" located in Windsor, Ontario.

Jim McCarty and Carmine Appice reunited Cactus once again in 2011. This line up included singer Jimmy Kunes, bassist Pete Bremy from Vanilla Fudge, and Randy Pratt on harmonica. This incarnation lasted five years producing two live albums, TKO Tokyo: Live in Japan, An Evening in Tokyo, and a studio album, Black Dawn. They toured the USA, Europe and Japan. McCarty and Bremy left the band in late 2016.
