CARMINE APPICE
Carmine Appice (b. December 17, 1946, Staten Island, New York) is a versatile and well-traveled rock drummer. He first
came to prominence as the flamboyant percussionist with the late 1960s psychedelic foursome Vanilla Fudge. Appice and
bassist Tim Bogert contributed distinctive background harmonies to the group's high-decibel sonic assault. After five
albums, Appice and Bogert left Vanilla Fudge to form the blues-rock quartet Cactus, with vocalist Rusty Day and guitarist
Jim McCarty (formerly with Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels). Appice and Bogert then left Cactus to join Jeff Beck in
the power-rock trio Beck, Bogert and Appice.
Appice later joined Rod Stewart's backing band, and played drums on (and co-wrote) such Stewart hits as "D'Ya Think I'm
Sexy?" and "Young Turks." He was a member of the supergroup KGB, featuring Ray Kennedy, Rick Grech, Mike Bloomfield, and
Barry Goldberg, and has recorded with Stanley Clarke, Ozzy Osbourne, Ted Nugent, and Pink Floyd. He has also played in the
bands King Kobra and Blue Murder.
Appice counts among his influences the jazz drumming of Buddy Rich and Gene Krupa, combined with an extensive classical
training. Besides his meticulous timekeeping skills, Appice is known for his showmanship, which includes stick tosses and
twirls, power fills, and double-bass drum bombs.
