it's funny for those goning crazy about Vinnie in this song & he's not even playing the "Guitar Solo" it's Rick Derringer ... Vinnie is a great Guitarist & his place in KISS is what it was great when he was there....
Vinnie Vincent? He should never been in KISS. What is his character supposed to be anyway? The Clown? The Living Shit? The Creampuff? It doesn't matter cause he sucks ass any way you slice it. He barely got enough talent to play for Menudo. I am one of the biggest KISS fans there are, but Vinnie just isn't KISS material. Ace is so far beyond compare to him, I can't believe anyone would try. Vinnie had a couple shining moments, but hey, so did The Gay City Rollers!!
But Hey now that I've checked it out a few times It's slightly possible it was Derringer because it has a little of that style and tone, but I wasn't there in the studio so what the Hell, it's the Vincester!
Priest's song of the same title is much better. Gene, Paul, Ace and Peter deserve to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for their 1974-77 output alone.
In my personal opinion Paul, Gene, Eric and Vinnie was KISS' finest overall lineup. Of course ACE never got a chance to co-write and perform much with Eric, so I'm leaving that possibility out of the equation:)
LICK IT UP - people thought it was the "Remove-The-Makeup-Gimmick" album, but it's got some great hard rock tunes on it. Nice faux-synch video. Vinnie Vincent's playing on this and CREATURES contain the most ferocious KISS solos ever. Yeah, everyone's got their fave (from Ace to Tommy), but for sheer original brutality, Vinnie gave it plenty my son!
SinnersWin is absolutely correct, considering Priest's Exciter came out in '78, yeah they had the name first, secondly, Halford has a 4 octave range, Paul Stanley has what, 2? Take into consideration the guitar solo trade offs Priest produces and Halford's vibratos, face it, KISS' prime wasn't in the 80's, sorry but this lineup was the worst the band had seen...
@KISS4evr I think some of this stuff is good, I never liked Vinnie Vincent. He never fit in this band. His face paint was so weird. His lead guitar was just so so.
@rocsalt It was at this time. Dynasty,Unmasked,The Elder.
While I love some of the songs(ACE) on those records they really hit a down ward Spiral Vinnine came in during Creatures of the night & it showed.
I have Every KISS CD Vinnine with out doubt wrote/cowrote {cough/cough}
Some great songs it really shows on his 2nd solo cd All sytemes go where the song Love Kills went to #1 Vinnie also wrote for Revenge & it again showed
@Acekicken Again, writing is a strength for Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons. You have all their albums so you alreadly know that there were many albums without Vincent. Creatures was a commeical disappointment. Lick it Up, while sucessful, wasnt the best writhing by this band. The word on the street about Vincent is that he wanted too much control for a "hired hand". Vincent also wasn't an "offical contractual" member of the band.
@rocsalt Honestly I don't care for Commercial success. Creatures did go gold after the success of Lick it up. Gene & Paul are great song writers Vinnine was let go because of ethics he never singed the contract to be a full member Gene stated Vinnine was not let go cause of lack of talent but cause of ethics.
@rocsalt writing is a strength for paul and gene....that the funniest shit i have ever heard. neither one can write shit. the best and /or more popular kiss songs were writen by ace,peter,vinnie,desmond child and michael bolton.
@Acekicken You seem to be a "Vincent" fan, which I am not. I just don't see amazing talent. I thought that his predicesor, and his replacements were much better "total musicans".
@rocsalt vinnie was the best thing to happen to kiss.best song writer of any of the band members and his song writing and style of playing SAVED this lame dying band.
@MrDigitidog vinnie is a million times more talented of a musician and song writer then paul and gene together could ever dream of being.gene and paul are better buisnessmen and have a goal with their career.vinnie is just a loose canon.
@glynnracing79 YOU CLEARLY < GOT YOUR HEAD UP YOUR ASS< YOU FUCKIN IDIOT!!!!!! VINNIE VINCENT IS NOTHING BUT A WEIRDO & DESERVED THE BOOT< IN THE FIRST PLACE. ASK YOURSELF ONE THING? WHERE IS HE NOW?!!!! HE HAD ONE GOOD SOLO ALBUM & THAT WAS IT!!!!!!
@KISS4evr how can you have a screen name like kiss4evr and say this is the worst line up?this is the best line up in the history of kiss.maybe not the best for bubblegum pop or a circus show but musically this is the most talent this band has ever had,will ever have.best drummer and best guitarist.vinnie is a great song writer too.way better then anyone else thats ever been in kiss.
@TheMullerFan vinnie is a million times better of a guitarist then ace could of dream of being.i am a huge fan of both but if you think ace is better then you never played any musical instrument before.as for the human being part........ace is a druggy,drunk loser...vinne is a cocky asshole.either way both screwed themselves over more then once.
I bought the cassette of this record ...and played it till it finally wore out....just blew me away hearing the playing of Vinnie Vincent......Vincent John Cusano...where are you???
I saw them too on this tour, in Brussels, Belgium. It was in fact the first concert I ever attended. I was 14 years old. Got tickets for next year already!
Actually, it's Exciter music with clips from Lick It Up and All Hell's Breaking Loose videos, plus live concert footage. I have no problem with it. Great song. Good sort-of video to accompany it.
97warlock, you make a good point...Lick It Up was almost like Creatures of the Night part II. They could've dropped the makeup AFTER they dropped Vinnie.
LICK IT UP......Was the album that to me....Should have still been in Makeup, & THEN take it off for animalize & asylum etc etc etc. Lick it Up just has Balls & as crazy as it may sound.....just seems like it would have been cooler if they had still been in Makeup still.
80s KISS will be my favorite of all the years. a very fresh and down and dirty vibe. so heavy. i wish they would pay some more attention to the 80s on tour now. i would love to see KISS in makeup playing non-makeup songs
..And as any diehard KISS fan knows..Bob Kulick played on Paul Stanley's 1978 solo album...BTW did anybody else know that Katey Sagel (a.k.a. Peg Bundy) sang back-up on Gene's solo album..She must have just been in her early 20's by then.
This album marks the new beginning of KISS. It has nothing to do with taking off the make-up. But this albums sets off a different kind of sound for KISS.
vinnie vincent may have acted like an asshole, but i swear it was cos he got ripped off by gene and paul, how can anybody deny his contribution to the band. creatures of the night and lick it up are awesome sounding albums which by coincidence features VV playing and writing. dont get me wrong i love kiss, always will but VV fukins rocks on those 2 albums
In my mind Mark st. John was the new permanent member of KISS during animalize. But his hands got some kind of virus or sickness (dunno the excact words for it, Dutch of origin ;) )
And on the Animalize tour his replacement was Bruce Kullick (Yup brother of Bob kullick). This i know for a fact, because i went to the Animalize tour (My 1st concert @ 14 years of age)
i dont know how true it is but i believe rick derringer actualy did this solo, its been mentioned even by vinie himself that rick derringer did appear on the album and was mentioned on the original release as having appeared by permission of his record label
Actually...KISS being spin masters, not many people REALLY "knew" Rick Derringer played on the song until the book "KISS: Behind The Mask" came out, which detaield track by track almsot every song in the KISS catalog (only one or two of Ace's and Peter's solo album songs were mentioned for some reason). I owned an original pressing ofLick It Up and nowhere is Rick Derringer mentioned to my knowledge. And even if (IF) he were, he wouldn't get credit for a specific song knowing Gene and Paul.
Rick Derringer didn't play on Alive II but Bob Kulick did, on "All American Man", "Rockin' In The U.S.A.", "Larger Than Life" and "Any Way You Want It". "Rocket Ride" all was Ace.
How in the workd can anyone confuse Bob Kulick with Rick Derringer?
Check your Kisstory book. He didn't play on all studio tracks. There you are correct. Derringer did play on that CD. Checked Google. Some sites say yes,some no. All good though. Derringer played on "Exciter" from Lick it Up?.
No, you check KISS Behind The Mask. I'll even give you the page: 293. Bob Kulick says he played solo and whythm guitars on "All American Man," "Rockin In The USA" and "Larger Than Life." "Rocket Ride" was Ace's song, and "Any Way You Want It" never had a lead solo anyway. If Derringer played on that song, who cares? There's no lead to it and it's never been reported he played on it except by rumor. Rumors always seem to be taken as fact, even when the truth is finally printed. Why??
o1kissfan , i agree with you and i disagree with you , ace wasnt comfortable being center stage but check out the first alive album he did a few solid long solos on both she and a 100,000 years before the drum solo .but i do agree he improved alot more after his solo band ,vinnie is also a favorite of mine he did help bring talented song writer and guitarist to bak he and kiss loved to screw with each other it was a two way street here ,
The opening track to Lick It Up. A good fast song to start things off. This LP brought KISS back. They had to do something. At least they didn't have to walk around looking over their shoulders anymore.
It might have, but a lot fans were disappointed with Elder. That, in my opinion, is was hurt KISS back then. Plus, they were going through a lot of changes at that time.
Heavens on fire,thrills in the night,love it loud,who wants to be lonely,uh! all night,exciter,a million to one,black diamond,war machine,forever,reason to live RULES!!! <3<3<3 and the others too<3
vinnie vincent avoided signing contracts to join kiss. too this very day, he has never been official full pledged member of kiss. he always wanted another contract deal, or another this another that. too late, we now have another guitar player.
This is very good !!

i dont know how true it is but i believe rick derringer actualy did this solo, its been mentioned even by vinie himself that rick derringer did appear on the album and was mentioned on the original release as having appeared by permission of his record label

Actually...KISS being spin masters, not many people REALLY "knew" Rick Derringer played on the song until the book "KISS: Behind The Mask" came out, which detaield track by track almsot every song in the KISS catalog (only one or two of Ace's and Peter's solo album songs were mentioned for some reason). I owned an original pressing ofLick It Up and nowhere is Rick Derringer mentioned to my knowledge. And even if (IF) he were, he wouldn't get credit for a specific song knowing Gene and Paul.

Rick Derringer played on the Alive II CD. Tracks 6-10, Disc 2. (Studio Tracks)
csiuda 3 years ago
Rick Derringer didn't play on Alive II but Bob Kulick did, on "All American Man", "Rockin' In The U.S.A.", "Larger Than Life" and "Any Way You Want It". "Rocket Ride" all was Ace.
How in the workd can anyone confuse Bob Kulick with Rick Derringer?
deuce1231 3 years ago
Check your Kisstory book. He didn't play on all studio tracks. There you are correct. Derringer did play on that CD. Checked Google. Some sites say yes,some no. All good though. Derringer played on "Exciter" from Lick it Up?.
siudac1 3 years ago
No, you check KISS Behind The Mask. I'll even give you the page: 293. Bob Kulick says he played solo and whythm guitars on "All American Man," "Rockin In The USA" and "Larger Than Life." "Rocket Ride" was Ace's song, and "Any Way You Want It" never had a lead solo anyway. If Derringer played on that song, who cares? There's no lead to it and it's never been reported he played on it except by rumor. Rumors always seem to be taken as fact, even when the truth is finally printed. Why??
deuce1231 3 years ago
You're wrong. Derringer didn't play on Alive2. Don't always believe anything Gene or Paul put in writing. They are often wrong.

can't you guys just get along? no matter what both of you guys have read or heard, neither of you know who really played on those songs.

deuce1231 is correct in his facts. All good. He steered me in the right direction. We're both big KISS fans, that's all that matters.

o1kissfan , i agree with you and i disagree with you , ace wasnt comfortable being center stage but check out the first alive album he did a few solid long solos on both she and a 100,000 years before the drum solo .but i do agree he improved alot more after his solo band ,vinnie is also a favorite of mine he did help bring talented song writer and guitarist to bak he and kiss loved to screw with each other it was a two way street here ,

The opening track to Lick It Up. A good fast song to start things off. This LP brought KISS back. They had to do something. At least they didn't have to walk around looking over their shoulders anymore.

It might have, but a lot fans were disappointed with Elder. That, in my opinion, is was hurt KISS back then. Plus, they were going through a lot of changes at that time.

Musically speaking yes, but sales and popularity wise, not at all.

vinnie vincent avoided signing contracts to join kiss. too this very day, he has never been official full pledged member of kiss. he always wanted another contract deal, or another this another that. too late, we now have another guitar player.
