    Carmine Appice is a universal drummer with amazing diversity, but he is also a very important person in Rock. He is an innovator and in all honesty he invented a lot of ideas that other drummers/musicians borrowed from him . A lot of times he doesnt get enough credit. If you go back in time and observe and do your research it is evident that a lot of interesting ideas that developed throughout the 60s and 70s in drumming and Rock music came directly from him

      These guys are by no means underated, their album Beck, Boart, and Appice was gantastic as has this band been historically, maybe they were not a part of popular culture but you don't get the recognition of Jeff Beck by being some obscure musicians! They were awesome had quite a few of their albums and still listening in 2024.

    I've kept quiet about this for years because I'm not one for excuses, but for those who didn't like this performance, you're right, it wasn't our best. However, please look closely at our reflections on the stage in front of the mics and monitors. That's not mirrors, it's water. This show was in Poland outdoors at night during a wind driven rain storm and it was in the upper 40's. We were freezing with cold rain in our faces. We had little room to move because all the equipment had to be pulled back out of the water on the stage so we wouldnt get electrocuted. Sorry for the excuses, we can do better than this. pb

      Peter Bremy - There's always people in the comments sections who have that smarter/hipper/better-than-thou attitude. And they're obviously amateurs, because no pro, who would know what they're talking about, would nitpick and critique a performance like this. It's about MANNERS, first of all, as nobody seems to have them on the internet. Secondly, being essentially anonymous (even if you use your real name) allows people to exercise their inner-asshole. And finally, the performance here sounds fine to me. I wouldn't be too bothered.

    I hosted Carmine for a drum clinic at my music store back in the day not once, but twice! That’s how good his clinics are! Unfortunately, the first time I hosted him was the day Frank Zappa died. They called Carmine at the store to let him know. He was devastated but still put on an incredible performance and he even stayed over an extra day to host a master class. I’ve hosted many big name drummers including Mike Portnoy, Vinnie Appice, Rod Morgenstein, and Eric Singer just to name a few and Carmine’s clinic was by far, more educational. He’s a great teacher but more importantly, a super nice guy.

He’s very short in stature like me but he was wide open all the time. After the clinic he did and after we got everybody out of the store, it was very late but Eric was still full of energy so we hit all the strip clubs cause that’s what he wanted to do! After I dropped him off back at the hotel, I made it home as the sun was coming up. It was a great time that I’ll never forget. I even purchased the Pearl Masters kit he used at the clinic. Transparent purple with gold hardware. It was the very first run of the masters series. Still have it now.

    I was fortunate enough to have seen the original band line-up of Cactus, at New York’s Fillmore East. That particular song “Evil” was originally done by Howlin’ Wolf. Both Cactus and The Wolf inspired me (as a guitarist myself), to change around the Cactus version a tad, and do it in my own way. I loved re-arranging Blues tunes in my own way, as the original “ground floor” versions pumped up my creativity to the max, and the results always blew me away, along with my band members! Cactus, Cream, Hendrix, Humble Pie, The Stones, (and a myriad of others), fed my hunger for the Blues and Hard Rock! Long live the memory of Cactus!!!!

Like Buddy Rich, Gene Krupa, John Bonham, Carl Palmer and all the great drummers from his time period, he is one of a kind and will not be replaced. Sadly he is one of the last of a dieing bread.

Spending time with you for a weekend in the city was terrific, and appearing opposite you with Cactus remains a golden memory. During our visit we all listened to my 1971 original tune "Purple Murder" which is now on You Tube and later you released the album by "Blue Murder." You obviously liked the title, changed the color, and ya` know what? I`m happy you did! Your drumming cousin Frank and i keep in touch and he fills me in on your latest news.

Yes, I know Tim said he was tired of touring and wants to slow down a bit now and spend more time in the studio and teaching. This particular performance isn't one of the group's better ones. Jim McCarty is a fabulous guitarist, check out "Texas" on the Buddy Miles Express LP entitled Electric Church which was produced by Jimi H.

      Your right "ed dess", he has followed somewhat the style of Ginger Baker in his early years, but eventually became the drummer known today. He played with just about all good guitarists from his time Not knowing at the moment, maybe he retired? He was up to the likes of Ginger Baker, Don Brewer, Alex Van Haven, Billy Cobham, Artimus Pyle, Neil Peart, John Bonham, even Keith Moon . And let us not forget Mitch Mitchell.

      As a working musician myself. All you had to do is wait a couple minutes to ask questions. When I'm setting up and people start asking questions, I'm like "What if I came to you job and started pestering you at work?" I'm sure he'd be happy to talk as soon as he was done. Pretty obvious. This happens to me all the time. Have a brain!

      ANYWAY……Carmine kicked ass that night along with the rest of the band. He mentioned ,after me not getting that he was working, that he should have held a drum clinic. Lesson learned!

    To all of you haters...and even a few non haters who never heard of Blue Murder. Check out the title track. He plays a beat called the Purdie Shuffle (made famous by John Bonham in Fool in the Rain) and just rips it up through the entire song. He is getting old but props to him for playing his passion until he can’t physically do it any longer! I salute you brother!

    Solo was fine. It's pretty much what he was doing in 1967 or so and certainly what he did with Cactus - just not quite as sharp. What people need to remember is that when he first did those licks, Bonham wasn't doing them. Ginger did some similar stuff, but he didn't take the risks Carmine did with beats, swells, and showmanship. Heavy metal drummers with their triggered gazzillion bpm riffs were not even born. This was revolutionary for that era.

    • @bpivr
      @bpivr 9 років тому +1

      ***** I think you meant "you're" instead of your. Anyway, yes, I'm referring to Appice with respect to the rocker world and would never compare him to people who played jazz. That's like saying Hendrix wasn't a great and original guitarist because Andres Segovia was playing fast licks before him. All players build on history. Appice brought new techniques to rock music. If you listen to other rock drummers from the early Vanilla Fudge days, his contributions are not debatable. Now, to say something debatable, I'll add that, if you'd stuck Appice into Zep after Bonham's demise, they would have never missed a thing (musically).

      @@bpivr Old comment but I agree with you until your debatable point. No way would Carmine have worked in Zep. His feel is fundamentally different than Bonzos. Couldn't be more different in terms of how they play to the beat. There's a distinct musical reason Zep ended with Bonham.

    Carmine makes it look so damn easy. Oh you can follow it... he takes you along with him... but playing it is an entirely another matter! This what separates master musicians from the typical pro guys. It's the minute detail where every stroke is clearly defined and heard... doesn't sound like loose snare strands or buzz, there is no hiding here behind other instruments playing too loud! He lays it out for you holds everyone's attention. He is THAT GREAT!

Our concert with you during your Cactus time period has been placed in one of my videos on You Tube with photos of Frank on the old blue Pearl drums included. I`m up front singing the lead with Allen on flute and sax, Ron Lovett on bass. We had a great time staying with you in N.Y. for a weekend of listening to originals and dinners out. Thanks again for the sharing. Catch up to me at "Hollywood Dollywood" by Joe Seddon, a recent addition to my site used as a drop box of sorts and say hi. Best to you Carmine and your solo in this piece is spectacular and exciting as ever. Be thinkin` of ya`, Joe
