Rocking With Jam Man Talks With Tommy Clufetos
Rocking With Jam Man Talks With Tommy Clufetos about his new album “Beat Up By Rock ‘N’ Roll” and how TOMMY’S ROCKTRIP came together, what it was like signing on a few tracks for this album, playing with legends like Ted Nugent, Alice Cooper, Rob Zombie and Ozzy. What is was like playing the final show with Black Sabbath, leaving Rob Zombie for Ozzy, joining the Dead Daises, contacting Ted Nugent when he found he had covid, if he feels like a hired gun or member of some of the bands he has been in, if he is on Ozzy’s new album, and what is next for him
TOMMY’S ROCKTRIP is drummer Tommy Clufetos’ (Ozzy Osbourne, Black Sabbath) new solo project, where he offers his take on the rock ‘n roll influences that made him one of the most sought after drummers in the current hard rock scene. Having already played with the likes of Alice Cooper, Ted Nugent, Rob Zombie, and John 5, he then joined Ozzy Osbourne’s band and subsequently wound up playing drums with Black Sabbath on their final tours. In other words, quite the resume!
“Beat Up By Rock ‘N’ Roll”, the debut album from Tommy‘s RockTrip, is an in-your-face, honest, kick ass hard rock album. Eric Dover, known for singing and playing guitar with Jellyfish, Slash’s Snakepit, Alice Cooper, and Imperial Drag, handles lead vocals on the album (though Tommy grabs the mic for three tracks). Eliot Lorengo (bass), Hank Schneekluth (guitar), Nao Nakashima (guitar), Tommy C (saxophone), John Schreffler (guitar), and Doug Organ (Hammond B3) round out the supporting cast.
