Description

One Way Or Another was the second studio outing by the supergroup Cactus. Existing of Vanilla Fudge rhythm section Carmine Appice (drums) and Tim Bogert (bass), as well as former Amboy Dukes lead vocalist Rusty Day (vocals/mouth harp), and Jim McCarty (guitar) from Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels and the Buddy Miles Express.

The album offers eight tracks of which six originals and two covers. Kicking off with one from the latter column, its the unexpected slow and heavy take on Little Richards Long Tall Sally. The other cover is a version of Chuck Willis Feel So Bad. Highlights of the originals are including Rock N Roll Children, Big Mama Boogie Parts I & II, and the title track, which closes the album in suitably kick-ass fashion.
