Carmine Appice (b. December 15, 1946, Brooklyn, New York) is a widely respected, versatile and well-traveled rock drummer, and is brother to Vinny Appice, who also plays drums professionally. 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 trio Beck, Bogert and Appice. is the 349th day of the year (350th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...
