Carlos Michael Pinera (September 29, 1948 – November 20, 2024) was an American guitarist, singer, songwriter and producer who started professionally in the late 1960s with the group Blues Image, which had a number 4 hit in 1970 with their song "Ride Captain Ride". After the breakup of that group, he joined Iron Butterfly, and later formed the group Ramatam. Pinera was then the founding member of the band New Cactus, a later incarnation of the band Cactus. He was the lead guitarist for Alice Cooper from 1980 to 1982.
Thee Image:
US mid-70s hard rock band from Miami, FL..
Thee Image was formed in 1974 by Mike Pinera (Cactus/Blues Image/Iron Butterfly/New Cactus Band), Duane Hitchings (Buddy Miles) and Donny Vosburgh (Buddy Miles). The name of the group was taken from a Miami psychedelic rock venue. They released two albums, "Thee Image" and "Inside The Triangle", both in 1975 and on Manticore Records (ELP's UK-based record label). Their music is heavy rock with stong hints of funky. Disbanded in early 1976.
