Carmine is one my first favourite drummers when I first started drumming as a kid, a few years ago I had the privilege of meeting him when VF came to my hometown, I started walking towards him backstage and I froze, me, a grown adult, was tongue tied, I didnt know what to say, I turned around and walked away... after a few minutes collecting myself, i tried again... walked up to him and apologized and told him why i walked away, he smiled shook my hand and said "Its cool man" we took some pics and he signed a drum skin for me, I told him how his drumming style and technique are what I emulated my whole life. That drum skin and pic hangs proudly on my wall in my office.. Legend Years before that I met his brother Vinny, i had a skin signed by him as well, but it went missing

Love your reaction to this, especially because you hadn't seen Carmine play before. From today's perspective, it's hard to recognize how radical he was--how radical the whole band was--at the time. Everything he did was new to us rock and roll fans (some of it he borrowed from older jazz players, but we didn't know that). Of course everyone picked up on what he was doing, and now it's standard drumming, but it was mindblowing then. And regarding his between-the-fingers grip, another drummer who played like that is Tommy Ardolino from the immortal NRBQ. They are widely considered the best live band ever, and the rhythm section of Tommy and Joey Spampinato rocked and swung harder than band before or since.

Carmine actually twirls his drum stick in between each drum beat quite a lot if you take the time to notice. Vanilla Fudge was a band that did covers except for their 2nd album that was their own music which was received poorly. They then realized doing big production cover songs was their niche. Just imagine how much pressure was taken off of them creatively . They could relax and hone in on their musicianship and arrangements. They went on to cover many Led Zepplin songs as well. Can you believe Vanilla Fudge paid 1/2 of the money to get Led Zep to open for them . 1st off there has to be much love and respect . And who cannot get on board with love & respect & great rock music....

Carmine and his brother Vinny both use this grip. I believe it came about from Carmine spinning his sticks and landing with a stroke on a drum. He spun his sticks holding them in between the index and middle finger. Rather than returning to a regular grip to play the next hit, he just kept the stick in between his fingers. He found he rather liked the way it felt and continued to use it in addition to using a more regular grip.

I have recently gone deep down the rabbit hole of Carmine Apice and subsequent bands in which she was a member. A lot of it has to do with being a little bigger and louder. A lot of his drums were larger sized than usual. He said that he also used to play with the butt of the stick to get more sound. Per his account, John Bonham asked him to get a duplicate of his (Apice's) drum kit... which Apice helped him get (gong and all). I think John Bonham had to tone his down a bit because the other members complained that he was overpowering them. John Bonham also credits his triplets to being inspired by Apice. A piece is humble and said that he didn't even remember yhat he had done them until bottom pointed them out to him. This is a cover of an already popular song. Vanilla Fudge was known for doing that with songs.. making them rock songs. This was actually the song that made them popular. I came across a clip from the movie Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. This is the song that was playing in the background of a fight scene. I didn't know who it was or what it was at the time that I first watched the movie. Tim Bogart on bass and Carmine Apice on drums has a strong resemblance to John Bonham and John Paul Jones in Led Zeppelin. I stumbled across my first Vanilla Fudge album for a dollar knowing nothing about them. I put post-it notes on the new records that I listen to. I noted that they were similar to Led Zeppelin. So I was not surprised and also thrilled to learn that, when Led Zeppelin came to the US, they opened for Vanilla Fudge. The founders of Deep Purple also talk about, when they were about to start Deep Purple they had been doing kind of Beachboy pop sort of stuff. They heard Vanilla Fudge and agreed that that's the kind of music they wanted to make. Apice and Bogert went on to form Cactus and also Beck Bogert Apice. Jeff Beck was originally going to be in Cactus but got in a car accident right before they were to get started. Apice is also known for starting the Drum Battles and kickstart a lot of drummers careers through them.
