Ot 'n' Sweaty

’OT ’N’ SWEATY
 
 
’Ot ’n’ Sweaty  is the fourth album by the American rock band Cactus released in 1972.  This was the band’s final album before their long hiatus that lasted until 2006.  The first three songs (filled up the first side of the original LP) were recorded live on April 3, 1972, in Puerto Rico at the Mar Y Sol Pop Festival; and the rest (the second side of the LP) was recorded in studio.  The pinnacle tracks for this album are “Bad Stuff”, “Bringing Me Down”, “Bedroom Mazurka”, “Telling You”, and a live recording of “Let Me Swim”, which was a song by the original Cactus on their 1970 debut album.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 

Cactus albums were never big sellers, but they worked fast, recording two more albums in 1971Restrictions and One Way . . . or Another plus ’Ot ’n’ Sweaty the following year in a revamped line-up after Jim McCarty left.
