As the drummer for Vanilla Fudge, Carmine Appice set the grooves for the groundbreaking band‘s 1967 psychedelic debut, which still stands today as a Hard Rock classic.

Vanilla Fudge went on to tour with Jimi Hendrix and Cream and even had Led Zeppelin as an opening act. He was also a driving force behind Cactus and Jeff Beck’s supergroup: Beck, Bogert & Appice.

Carmine joins Michael Brandvold and Jay Gilbert to talk about music business survival on the Music Biz Weekly podcast.
