I wasnt even aware that KISS (OR Ace for that matter) had new albums out. But based on Tony and Nino's responses to the new KISS album i dont think i'll bother with it. Now ACE on the other hand i think i'll have to look for his latest offering. Im so glad to know he's still going!! Ace was always one of my fav guitar players and still is. (i remember reading in an interview once that the music critics considered Ace to be the only serious musician in the band) .
The truth is i lost some respect for KISS when i found out that they didnt play their own instruments on a lot of their recordings, ie Gene would play rhythm guitar etc, and that they often got session players in as well. And its been well documented that ALIVE was heavily overdubbed in the studio so it cant really be called a TRUE live album as far as im concerned. I'll probably be crucified for saying all this.. maybe i shouldnt be posting this after drinking ..lol
Dont get me wrong im still a fan of the band (mainly their early stuff), it was KISS who made me want to be a guitar player and singer in bands in the first place. AND my holy grail pinball is still a KISS
