help identifying climbing rose

I inherited this rose. It was never trained properly and after a good tying in, she exploded this tune and only bloomed once. She has been a constant pain, riddled with black spot but I have a soft spot for neglected plants. Any ideas what it may be? Thanks

Could it be Dr Huey? It looks to me like a rootstock from an older grafted rose that died back. The Dr is a once bloomer and very vigorous.

I am in zone 7 NY, thanks joeywyomingz4b That's actually quite possible as I am not sure what this rose originated as!

Probably Dr. Huey (rootstock) or less likely Climbing Blaze. The latter blooms for a long period of time. The former blooms in one main burst in spring and has a few flowers later in the summer in my area of southern California. Dr. Huey is quite rewarding to grow on its own because it responds well to fertilizer and water but is very hard to kill with neglect.

Dr. Huey. I had one come up and bloom on a rose I dug up a couple of years ago.
