My older brother was a rock drummer in the 70's and turned me on to Carmine. I started seriously playing in the early 80's and have never forgotten Carmine's books and techniques to this day.
Carmine I listen to every day in my Rav 4 blasting You Keep Me Hanging On. I don't care I am 70 years old and enjoy the whole CD. Awesome and when I am driving I go whow the most awesome drummer. I even have a set of your drumsticks. Thank you luv you and stay safe. Ann from NJ You are the best.❤
Got to watch him from about 12 feet away at the side of the stage at a Vanilla Fudge gig in Scituate, Ma back in 2011. Just a beast, and makes it look so easy !
Carmine was and is one of my alltime inspirations...You are certainly one of the factors that have helped me define who I am as as a drummer....Thanks for doing what you do.....H7
Holy Crap! I just happend across this video. I have his original book. And was in John and Dino Elefantes studio in the early 80s watching a friend record his solo album and got John and his drummer from Kansas to sign the book for me because it was the only thing I had near me. I still have the book to this day!
That cymbal choking was epic for that time! I mean he really stood out in that performance. Must have had some effect on young drummers like Ringo did.
I saw Cactus and also Jimi Hendrix play outside in Sicks stadium in Seattle summer of 1970 Cactus played about an hour or two before Jiimi. Weather was good then, but later started to raiin. I am biggest Hendrix fan in world but Cactus was the best that day! Jim McArty really really incredible on guitar. Before Jimi came on, there was big rainstorm I was right up front by stage and it was still drizzling when Jimi finally came on. They put a tarp over stage where he stood, and he wore some rubber boots so he wouldnt get electrocuted. His guitar was soaking wet after awhile - I remember him doing hand slides on fretboard and water spraying off. He cut it all short threw down guitar suddenly and wallked off stage that was end of concert. Chances are Jimi got a big electrical shock and just said fuck it. His stage presence first coming on stage just standing there smiling in wild garb was amazing it was like seeing a black Jesus returning to earth is best I can do to describe it. I was only 14, innocent kid rock guitarist with really long hair.. When he first came on, there was big paisly hippy pillow on stage. First thing he said is if anyone wants to FUCK heres a pillow and he kicked it while he was looking right at me. I Ithink he thought I was a girl as my hair soaked and was babyfaced kid. So I can say Jimi Hendrix hit on me haha.
I hate to tell Carmine...but Frd Astaire knew how to play drums in the late 50 early 60's. He may have wanted the book but he could already play. There is at least 2 videos of him doing it...and pics of him in his home that had a drum kit in them.
Not gonna happen bro. It’s already been discussed a lot. Carmine even filmed an interview saying he would do it. Not all personalities match, if you haven’t already noticed in life. But I agree that it would make the most sense for carmine to be John’s replacement. I think LZ toyed with the idea of Cozy Powell doing it back in 1980, but nothing happened. Of coarse, now it’s too late for ANYONE to do it because Robert doesn’t want to do it.

@@alexhicks5889 Carmine is soooo full of himself. Most of us appreciate the talent and contributions yes. But he is a wanker so full of himself. He is the Rock version of Buddy Rich !!
Destroythe narrative Check out Ted Reeds "Syncopation for the Modern Drummer ", I think that's the book he is referring to. And I would have to disagree that it is a "useless " book. That said,Carmine rocks!!
I have heard them all...I am 53 now...Carmine is an absolute beast...an innovator and no more of an ego maniac than say Buddy Rich Lol...so stop. The man is incredible and very likable.

Carmine great drummer, gives back to the drumming community!
Realistic Rock was my first drum book back in late 70's. Thank you Carmine!
I still have that book...
One of my all-time favorite drummers.
Carmine Number One!Greetings from the Italy!😃🤟

What club in Scituate? I grew up there...

Realistic Rock... Still have it!
Saw him with Cactus May 1970
Steve Miller
Grateful Dead
Jimi Hendrix
Temple Stadium Phila, Pa
He is SUPERIOR AWESOME LEGEND. X ALSO LEARNED FROM RR AND EVEN MET CARMINE PITTSBURGH 1992 DRUM CLINIC
Still have that book of Carmine’s. Immensely helpful.
That cymbal choking was epic for that time! I mean he really stood out in that performance. Must have had some effect on young drummers like Ringo did.
I mean if he influenced John Bonham think about how many other people he influenced
I tracked him down and studied with Carmine for years after seeing that performance on Television.

Love Carmine!
Dice clay plays drums ? Cool , I had your book with a cartoon picture of you on the cover , rock beats
Wonderfull guy..tanks
Carmine is Badass !!!
LZ definitely could have continued with Carmine.
FOR REAL! That would have been so amazing actually
HIM or Cozy Powell in technique style and sound not to mention star power drumsolos.
Blasphemy.
And they picked Phil Collins for the live aid out of all people :D
He,s a good drummer, don't get me wrong, but not the right fit for Zep.
Carmen and Vinny awesome
He aught to get to the other 3 of LZ to perform the ultimate grande finale! Pass this along. Go!!!
Good idea!

I heard they thought about having Barriemore Barlow in the band. Bonham said he was the best drummer Britain ever produced...or something like it...
6:23 - Highly entertaining solo. (Which is the whole point at an arena rock concert.)
Carmine Appice rules
C MAN YOU ROCK BRO
I have his very early, How to Play Double Bass Drums..

So, is having the music taken out on the Ed Sullivan appearance part of a youtube purge of music?
Ha I had the second book and CD.
What date was that solo? Would like to find the whole solo
video online.
Nice name drop. We knew Hendrix too...I am sure he knew him any better than I do...talent yes. Class no. Plus Vinny is better without the EGO.
Ah, come on. You Carmine haters really reach for it.

At 4:50, the useless drum book author with slicked back hair is Ringo Star. 😂😂😂😂😂

Great drummer but ripping folks off at £47.99 for cactus new vinyl LP
Over rated ego tripper.

Listen to the Beck, Bogart & Appice live album and then say he is overrated.
He has ragged on Aldridge, Powell, so many others ! He was the puppet master behind Bonzo 🤣😂🤣
