  • This is such a cool iso. Reminds me a bit of the guitar work (sound and notes) on Jesus Christ Superstar's 'Heaven on their Minds' (1973).

    BTW, 4:50 to the end is pure Heaven.

  • I was pretty sure Ace said he thought Kramer was the only producer that understood him. It was Bob Ezrin that he didnt click with. I know Eddie Kramer went on to produce three of aces solo albums. The Kiss one and Frehleys Commet and Second sighting.

  • @cobias Yep, whatever they did with Bill Aucoin and Eddie Kramer it worked. Ace didn't care for Kramer, but it probably made him a better guitarist and cemented his place in Rock History, as well as one of the most influential of all time. He was the one who made me want to learn how to play!!!

  • Yep, had a second listen .Its funny, kiss and Eddie Kramer came out and said there was alot of overdubs on a VH1 special. Now Wikipedia says " very few" . If they have the davenport guitar audio, lets hear the whole band and compare it to Alive. I compared this guitar to Alive and its the same exact thing...but i can guarantee thats not from a mic pushed up against the speaker of a 100 watt marshall cranked to the hilt. NO WAY. Im not discounting Ace at all. 74-77 he was the SHIT !

  • @exodor1 Hey, i have played live and recorded live ( off the board ) and in the studio. This is FAR to clean and at a low volume to be live. And sure, Eddie Kramer would have him leave in a few small mistakes to keep it "real" so to speak. Live you would hear all kinds of other things especially with Aces heavy handed technique when hes moving around. Also you hear how quiet and clean it is...this is so they have more control over it in the mix.

  • @cobias are we supposed to believe that he played the mistakes in the studio on purpose?

  • This is not live. This is stuff he did in the studio to " doctor" alive. Its still ace though.

  • Pretty cool!

  • totally illustrates the magic qualities he brought to the synergy of the band, both in songwrighting and in performance. the rhythms and syncopations were both the framework the early songs were built around, as well as being the icing on the cake, especially in the solos. long live ace!

  • Ace Frehley while he was still a hungry young rocker. Raw energy. Pure and electrifying. Very little comes even close to Ace in his prime! Thanks for another great Kiss clip.
