Carmine Appice: DeadWard "out of his tree"

[rustoffa]

Out of his tree? Looks to me like he's hell-bent on self destruction. It's interesting....after all these years of sterile love, layers of over-produced schlock, etc?

I mean, the motherfucker responsible for THE MOST UNIVERSALLY IDENTIFIABLE GUITAR SOLO IN HISTORY spends over a decade dancing with an imagined viability, then turns to DIRTY MOVIES???

Fuck the drama, fuck the opinions.

IT'S CONFLICT, NOT ROCKET SURGERY.

Not that long ago, I typed something about EVH "not" being a HARD-ROCKING-FUCKER. What a load of shit....

Anyways, he's battling through some shit, and needs to get outta the tree.

Interesting on how he touches on the origin of metal. I've heard it claimed that Rumble by Link Wray was the first metal single. I've heard the same claim about The Kinks original You Really Got Me. I think i've also heard it claimed that Pete Townshend was the first metal guitarist. And also that the first actual use of the term heavy metal came from a review of a Hendrix performance where the reviewer said it was like "heavy metal falling from the skies". There seem to be about 5 billion artists/bands being called "the father/s of heavy metal."

I think Ed bought a winery too and named the brand "Smoking Loon" after himself.
