treeduck Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Vinnie was a great musician .. It is a tragedy, but he did it to himself He played with Laura Nyro in the 1970s, and played on two of her albums This is him http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUuppC6nR0IYeah he just couldn't rein himself in enough to keep things together with KISS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 And when he did the Invasion album it's like he said to himself "at last I'm free!" and just went nuts on his solos. It's like he took all the fast bits of his previous solos and strung them altogether into one long solo. Don't get me wrong I enjoy the album and his solos, but there's no denying that they're way over the top in terms of being well constructed. And yet that first Invasion album was my album of the day, it ROCKS! :haz: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boots Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 (edited) Thinking about seeing them this summer. I know they're a hard rock band but I like their song Beth the best. :) Edited April 30, 2016 by Boots 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbine Freight Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 I am on a huge Kiss/Ace Frehley kick at the moment. Been playing their stuff virtually non-stop for around ten days now. Still one of my fave bands. F**k the haters. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wil1972 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 lol If Kulick would have shown that much balls with his playing, he would have left more of a mark in the band Seriously, Vinnie seems like a lost soul - all the talent in the world - great songwriter, singer, and he's got great chops on the guitar - but so much shit seems to follow him ... Didn;t one of his wives mysteriously die ??Yeah I was surprised when Kulick piped up. I don't know why he was so sore it's not like his guitar playing on that album is particularly memorable. He's a good guitarist but not much identity in it and he hasn't much stage presence. It's like he's invisible at times. When I first saw him in 1984 I thought well ok he's new and it might take a while for him to get established but he pretty much was always that guy who you didn't really notice that much. Bruce the Spruce... Cause he stood there like a tree.:) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexMike Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 I went to one of those official conventions in 1995. At the time, $100 seemed SO expensive, but compared to today's concert and VIP pricing, it looks now like a steal. The band took questions for nearly an hour, played unplugged for over TWO hours, and then hung around to sign stuff for at least another half-hour. Plus lots of other fun stuff earlier in the day. It was an awesome time. Poor Bruce and Eric, though, had to sit there and wait as question after question went to Gene and Paul (understandable, of course). So I'm not too surprised that Bruce went for it there when he saw an opening! Bruce is a great player (and especially shined on Revenge and Carnival Of Souls), but I'm not sure that he was ever a great fit for KISS, stylistically speaking. I actually prefer Thayer being in the band over him. No one could ever match Ace in his prime though, that's for sure. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReRushed Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 "Deuce" is a really, really good song. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cat 3 Posted June 6, 2016 Author Share Posted June 6, 2016 "Deuce" is a really, really good song. Seriously! I can't tell you how much I loved those first six studio albums growing up. But it has been in recent years that I've come to appreciate how good those first three albums are. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's about making money. But, the songs back it all up. They were an entertaining band with an incredibly diverse repertoire of songs. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexMike Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) If I had a time machine and could go back to any one past concert/tour, KISS in 1975 with Rush opening would probably be my pick. Either that or KISS opening for Black Sabbath (which I'm pretty sure happened that same year). 1975 would've been THE year to see KISS, imo. Look up the Midnight Special appearance if you haven't seen it. One of their all-time best filmed performances. Energy and chemistry is off the charts. The version on Kissology unfortunately omitted "Deuce", which just killed. Edited June 6, 2016 by TexMike 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
