DNA - Party Tested (CD)

One of the great short-lived bands of all-time featuring two of the most accomplished musicians of the 60s/70s rock area: Carmine Appice and Rick Derringer. DNA had what barely amounts to a recording career, yet still managed to produce some crucial rock music. Rick Derringer has been on the rock & roll scene since 1965, which makes him one of the more enduring veterans of his generation. Derringer worked with his band the McCoys in his mid-teens, highlighted by the bubblegum anthem 'Hang On Sloopy," and his subsequent playing with Johnny (and later Edgar) Winter provided him with a degree of credibility that a lot of guitar players can only envy, especially after the release of the Edgar Winter live double album "Roadwork." Rock drummer Carmine Appice has appeared in a variety of groups over the years, starting with Vanilla Fudge in 1966. That band made five charting albums between 1967 and 1969. The most successful of which was the gold-selling debut "Vanilla Fudge." In 1973, Appice and Bogert teamed up with guitarist Jeff Beck to form Beck, Bogert & Appice, who scored a gold-selling album, "Beck Bogert & Appice." Appice also worked as Rod Stewart's drummer in the '70s and '80s and co-wrote Stewart's hits "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" and 'Young Turks." This is the first time this disc has been available in a long time and it features a great cover of Gary Glitter's "Rock & Roll. Part II."
