Eddie usually does most of the talking.

People think Appice comes across as arrogant, but he's seen pretty much everything throughout the years and is brutally honest. If he claims he did something, he ain't lying.

Vinnie is a great talent. No doubt about it. That's the reason why Gene and Paul wrote songs with him after he left/kicked out/fired from Kiss. He has the talent. Otherwise, he is a very strange person. Just really strange. Business wise....well his history speaks for itself. Top notch talent with a ton of baggage is what Vinnie is.

He was driven to create and it nearly destroyed him . i listen to his work in awe, because as far out in reckless abandon some of it is he had the focus to produce, and edit himself as the sickest metal guitar player ever, and it is even more amazing he could calmly slow down and explain the mechanics of what made him tick

Her exact words to him were "you need your own band"..She didn't like band members having tooooo much celebrity status. His impact on the genre will probably never be fully appreciated because he never had a long tenure in any larger than life band. As for VV he turned a brief tenure in KISS into a shit show-he could have probably rode that out for the rest of his life, not getting mega-rich maybe but living comfortably off it with a little effort. Instead he screwed a lot of people with cancelled gigs, signed guitars that were never shipped and a bunch of other stuff.

@@daviddogstar3307 thanks, that sounds right! So Michael Angelo stole the idea from Carmine lol.

Looks like the Vinnie "problem" was triggered by financial insecurity via Gene and Paul.

Vinnie Vincent is a biological man . “Let them fight” 😂

Lol. Carmine Appice is calling someone a trouble maker. 🙄

So Vinnie is kinda like Carmine…

Not even close.

Appice’s name is pronounced “Ap-a-see.” Not ‘a piece’

Carmine has explained it publicly that he chose the pronunciation A-piece, leading to confusion when his brother chose the Italian pronunciation. Just Google it.

vinnie like a great draft pick that had a good season or 2 but a bust overall...

Vinnie looks odder then usual

I must have seen them on the same tour but in Springfield Mass They were corny as hell. Telling everyone to do the cobra WTF not cool at all. I always considered bands like King Cobra to be more of a joke than Spinal Tap sad thing was they were serious.

Damn, NO ONE likes Vinnie Vincent!!

This interview sounds like Vinnie belongs in prison cell

Always complaining

His last name is pronounced "Ahh-Pee-Chee"
