I have to agree...Ace has always found Kiss stifling when it came to his material (with Paul & Gene having complete "creative" control), as well as feel life on the road with Kiss is lonely & destructive (just listen to "Into the Void" & "Snowblind"). He sounds great on this tour & I'm psyched that I'm seeing Ace & his band perform in my area this week! Ace is the man! \m/
It's great to see Ace performing again and completely sober. The pressures of playing in KISS were probably too much for him over the years. He was somewhat stifled as a musician while in the band. The best material did not end up on Psycho Circus. No disrespect to Gene or Paul, but a sober Ace is a better rock musician than either of them, which says a lot. Ace has made a huge contribution to rock music both from within and outside one of the greatest bands of all time, if not the greatest.
one of the greatest rock and roll songs ever!
