Some
History
The New Cactus Band, led by Duane Hitchings, released one album
(Son Of Cactus) and featured nobody of the original Cactus.
Mike Pinera, formerly of Blues Image and Iron Butterfly, came
in on guitar, along with Roland Robinson on bass and Jerry Norris
on drums. The band then toured live in the Midwest and on the
East Coast in mid 1973 with Captain Beyond drummer Bobby Caldwell
and former Greg Allman bass player Charlie Souza. Wikipedia.com

The Real Story
While we were riding across Gandy Bridge in his limosine from a night
club in St. Pete where he had come to see me play in 1972, Greg handed
this pendant to me and asked if I'd join his band. This is right after
Berry Oakley had died in a motorcycle accident. History will show
I eventually opted to tour with the New Cactus Band and the Allman
Brothers Band added bassist Lamar Williams. Peace & Love, Charlie
Souza
