Hartke
Amplifiers
Hartke
first revolutionized the world of bass amplification in 1985 with the
creation of a unique aluminum cone driver that produced a bass tone
with far broader dynamics than had ever been heard before. Since
then, they have introduced a complete line of bass gear, and
introduced the Hartke sound to a whole new generation of bass
players. Their success can be attributed to a long history of
inspiring world-class musicians with our innovative bass speaker technology.
Pete's
Friends... alphabetically
Carmine
Appice
What
can be said about legendary rock drummer Carmine Appice? He started
power drumming, before Bonham. In fact Carmine and Bonham were close
friends. Pete had the extreme pleasure to work with Carmine and
Vanilla Fudge in 2002.
Russ
T. Blades
"Russ
and I are the rhythm section for Vince Martell's (Vanilla Fudge)
band. Aside from his talent and years of experience as a drummer, he
is also a noted arranger and session man. "Please visit his site
created by his lovely daughter Olivia!"
Tim
Bogert
In the
summer of 1967 as a fourteen-year-old kid, Pete stood at the feet of
Tim Bogert on stage. Pete had been playing bass only a few months. It
was at that moment, the legendary bassist of Vanilla Fudge, Cactus,
and Beck Bogert Appice inspired Pete to be the best he can be. Tim is
still inspiring him to this day.

styles. He's also a very accomplished songwriter and singer. Jeff's

Billy

Billy Killoran is a great musician and good friend. Back in the 60's
his band opened for Vanilla Fudge. He has just recorded his own CD
and I played on his 9/11 inspired "Freedom" track. Please

The
Kootz
|
Rock
'n
Roll.. With Fiber! |
The
Kootz is an amazing cover... well family. It's hard to call it just a
band. They have been around for almost 10 years (as of 2009) and if
you live in New Jersey, they play- everywhere, and everything
boasting a play list nearing 1,000 songs! Kootz can be found in New
York too. Pete is now very happy and proud to have been invited to
become a part of the Kootz family. Check their official website out
above, and become their friend on MySpace. |
Vince
Martell
"Vince
Martell is probably the most unsung guitar player in Rock
History" Even though his riff in Vanilla Fudge's You Keep Me
Hanging On was voted the number 4 heaviest guitar riff of all time by
Guitar Magazine, he still hasn't achieved the status he richly
deserves. Check out Vince Martell. Pete has been Vince's bass player
for since 2000.
Tiger
Bill Meligari
"Bill
and I went to High School together. Bill Meligari is truly one of
the finest drummers I've ever met or worked with. He studied with
jazz legend Joe Morello, who gave him the nickname Tiger Bill. He's
published drum method books including a very popular one for double
bass drum technique. Please visit Bill's site!"
David
Sankey - Illustration and Design
David
Sankey is a uniquely wonderful artist and designer, and a good
friend! Check out his web site for his works and contact information.
Mark
Stein
While
Pete was influenced on bass by Tim Bogert and Paul McCartney, perhaps
his biggest musical influence of all was Mark Stein of the Vanilla
Fudge. "I remember the first time I saw the Fudge, and Mark
Stein. I was, as I've said many times before, blown away by bassist
Tim Boger. However, I kept being drawn back to Mark, his vocals, and
his Hammond organ. So much so, he inspired me to learn a new
instrument. No one else has done that to me before, and since. I'm
proud to have his signature on my own Hammond now." Visit Mark
Stein." (2006 - I'm also now proud to be his webmaster) (2007 -
also proud to be his keyboard tech at Radio City Music Hall 8/7/07!!!)
Vanilla
Fudge
"If
you haven't guessed already, Vanilla Fudge had the most profound
influence on me and my music. No, this is not the site that I
maintain, but the current site for the most up to date news of the
greatest Rock & Roll band ever." |
