Frehley's Comet (1987) Album Review
I fretted and wired Genes first BC Rich Punisher. Late 91. No BS. The first Punishers were made in Warren, NJ. Late 91-93. Yes USA Custom BCR’s were made in NJ @ that time.
Gibson need to get their shit together and make a real Ace Frehley signature Les Paul. A replica of Ace's tobacco-burst deluxe.
The hardest Kiss song on Bass in my opinion is Ive had enough into the fire. Thats a killer track
My ranking of the different versions: 1. Kiss, because of Paul Stanley's voice. 2. Ace Frehley because of his guitar work. 3. Molly Hatchet. It was a solid effort. If they had released it as a single they would have done better. 4. Robin Beck. Lackluster. 5. Bonnie Tyler. Hate her voice.
"Hide Your Heart" IS more of a 'Shakespeare' tragedy song; always kinda preferred Ace's version: what could've been had he stayed with during the '80's......
Alive wasn't Live! It was recorded in studio and had audience tracks layered over it.
All Systems Go is miles better. Your'e 100% correct with everything you mentioned. Iove Back on the Streets but the John Norum version
Once again..people bring up The Elder and DON'T put Mr Blackwell on the list...I find that very odd. Your list isn't bad though.
Whoa! Interesting list. Guessing since you didn't live the Crüe in the 80s, you have a totally different view. My list is completely flipped from yours. Although Generation Swine hits the absolute bottom. I did a ranking vid. Different vibe entirely.
You sound good Sean, and your guitar sounds sweet as well!!!!!! Its so awesome hearing classic KISS stripped down to a single acoustic sound 😊
Love this movie!! Love all of Linda Blaire's movies!! 💗♥️💗 To answer your question regarding the ending. Everyone assumes Julia is dead from the car explosion, she has no reason or desire to go back to the family she was residing with. She obviously enjoys causing chaos for everyone and anyone.
The Ankle Warrior
Sounds like a fun movie
How do you have decent equipment but play worse than a 12 year old starting out
Hey Dj, it's never too late to stop being a douchebag!!! What have you done????? Sean is sharing his learning journey with us, which takes court. Putting yourself out there isn't easy because of people like you. Fiind something to like about yourself so you don't feel the need to dump on others!!!!!
High and Dry is where???? - It's 100% their best album and up there as one of the greatest metal albums ever !!!
Don't agree on some of the songs, but thanks for all te info and nostalgia
On Through the night 11 and High n dry 10. This is wrong my friend
Great video, what about Ace’s 1959 burst?
Find Gene's Logue bass.
Fair Warning is way too low.
It took me 45 years to finally listen to it. Was a huge KISS fan at the time, but heard it sucked do at 12 I believed it. Was consumed by Back in Black and Blizzard of Oz. I lime the album alot.
Dude, you need to spend some more time with High N' Dry. It is arguably their best record. At the top with Pyromania for me!
I always wished there was more footage of Vinnie Vincent, especially during the Creatures tour.
Yea Slang is underrated
This is awesome Sean. I wanted to chime in that in the winter of 78' I believe Kiss took a year off after the solos were released. I met an amazing Kiss fan in 1990, who was the biggest Kiss fan in a small town I had recently moved to. Actually, he was the uncle of one of my best friends. And when I met him by chance in the summer of 90', I was completely fascinated with the 70's Kiss lineup. I was also a fan of the 80's lineup with Bruce and Eric Carr. Now we got to talking and he told me why Kiss called the Dynasty tour, The Return of KISS. He said he was a diehard Kiss Army member from 1975 thru 1978. Yet by 1979 he was no longer a fan per se, since he thought the Dynasty album was disco. He wasn't a disco type of guy. But he asked me if I had ever found a copy of a late 70's music magazine with Kiss on the cover, the headlines read: KISS Dead, A World In Mourning, The New Gene... and I said no. But already my friend's uncle had me very intrigued and he said the magazine was trying to pull a similar thing like that of The Beatles where Paul McCartney was rumored to have died mysteriously. He proceeded to tell me the Kiss magazine sold for $1.95 in 1978, but that finding one even by 1990's standards was ultra rare, almost nonexistent actually unless you attended a Kiss Convention. And I'm not certain how many of these particular magazines there actually were. So I'm all ears. I listened as he relates the story of reading about his favorite super hero rock group had supposedly died and were replaced by impostures. He reassured me the magazine was fake news about Kiss. Even so the actual magazine does exist. I just seen two copies for sale at a staggering $100 and $106!!! Naturally I'm not made of moolah and I hope to find a copy of said magazine somewhere for a lot less. All that he told me and we talked about came flooding back when I watched your documentary and it made sense to me as to why their 79' Dynasty tour was called "The Return of KISS". Pre-internet days was challenging and quite difficult finding anything about the 70's Kiss if you didn't know any of the first generation Kiss fans that is that held onto their collections. I remember my friend's uncle graciously gave me a 78' Peter Criss song book, two re-prints of 70's Kiss poster/centerfolds (one of which I'm still searching to this very day to replace). It was of Kiss in their early makeup stages right about 73'- 74' ish and it was after Paul dropped the Bandit makeup. These posters/ centerfolds were from an issue of Guitar magazine. He also gave me three Don Russ Ace Frehley trading cards from series one. He unfortunately lost almost his entire Kiss collection in a basement flood in 1990 the same month I moved to town. Otherwise, he said he would have also given me his three sets of 77' Mego dolls. That's three Ace's, Three Paul's, Three Peter's, and Three Gene's all in their original boxes. I nearly flipped! That would have been the modern day equivalent of hitting the lottery three times over and for a young Kiss fan like I was with little next to nothing. It would have been a dream come true for me. My friend's uncle during the 70's bought up what he could of Kiss and kept it nice until the basement flooded. 😢 He was also going to give me the Kiss Chevy van (box and everything), but lost it too. Unfortunately, I wore out the Ace trading cards he gave me I carried them on my person all the time. Years later I bought replacement copies (including duplicates) to carry on me. Those cards and more importantly, his generosity and knowledge of Kiss meant the world to me. I used to carry a pencil and index cards on my person at all times. I wish I kept those index cards. I had filled up several with our conversation that day. This is a fascinating documentary Sean. Thank you for sharing. I just wanted to share my piece of Kisstory with other Kiss Army members. 😊❤
@@EB1878 Thanks for the kind words and your story!
the Axe is one of the most iconic instruments in the history of rock. I wanted to build one, but also wanted to be able to sit down and play without chopping my leg off, so I came up with my own design, partly inspired by it.
holy cow that purple iceman is gorgeous. @_@
Lead
Playing through a PA and sound board ever it was all adjusted for my lead part in some of these sitting in was my best memory of performance as playing a part as a led guitar player
Humble but silent I kept as I had to be silent to not disrupt my integrity lol I miss it I'll do it again this time I won't be shy
Drunkenness just couldn't find my way as cheap little amps if take 2 hook hem up in back playing through one and addeding another speaker to achieve feedback using a boss desertion box lol I look back and see how it all part of my expertise now I'm 63 years old now & still have it it's like ridding a bike with training wheels then finally getting the Marshalls it all went away and never looked back but to see my foot print
Fieling down the frets on some of these cheap guitars I had several I use to buy and change it as experiment I remember getting so frustrated with some of these id through across the room in frustration
Cheapo know but it was just me I wanted to experience and even had my own design if I had enough back then money I lost so many guitars in the pawn shop I don't struggle no more
Preimed pickup
What I did was to add different part like changing necks on these guitars then adding a brass nut & adding a primed pick up
The aluminum guitar I remember was like ovation ? Saying u could stretch the string up and it had a stretch that went so far and went back ward I didn't like it I started to break down cheap guitars like the Aspen and j
I like Gimme More and Boomerang, but I agree with you 100% on Loves A Deadly Weapon. I don't like this Song at all and I'm glad that it is the first song on the B side, so I can skip it every time. Pauls demo is great and far superior.
Molly Hatchet version is my favorite.
Nice review my man I agree there are several clunkers in there, but I bought this album when it first came out. I was still in high school. I was 17 years old. I was probably the only person I knew who actually bought the album. I was a big fan of his singing voice. I like this album, but I don’t think it was a wise decision to open a new solo album with a slower ballad type song although I love the song “By Myself” when it goes into the chorus “for once in my life, I’ve got a chance and I’ll take it” It is amazing! The melodies are strong and like you said the guitar work is really good along with the piano work although I don’t think there should be piano in every damn song! lol All in all I thought it was a pretty damn good album and produced very well. It had a clean sound and Peter’s voice is awesome. “Feel Like Letting Go” is also a really good song, but unfortunately, there are no true rockers on the album like “Baby Driver” or “Hooligan” you can truly tell that Peter was at a very sensitive time in his life and doing a lot of soul-searching. I like it, but I do not listen to it very often at all anymore. It is hard to believe the album did not even chart. That is insane!
In my opinion, Peter’s ‘78 solo album was BY FAR the BEST solo album he did. I think he thought after the success of “Beth” he literally thought could make it on his own but ended up falling on his face. Huge disappointing album as well as his future solo albums
There's a new 2024 Video on Gibson YT channel that looks into some incredible Paul Stanley guitars, especially his 70's stuff. Your correct Paul used the Steinberger guitars at a time when he was having health issues, he needed a light guitar onstage. This is exposed in Paul's book but semi glossed over so you need to join the dot's yourself. You do notice his mobility onstage starts to decline during the 90's, it's also the time period when his voice begins to break down. His vocal peak was around the 88 tour era. By the time the 2000's came around Paul was at times really struggling vocally. Paul's guitar playing has always been amazing, he's a great guitarist who's often overshadowed by whoever is on lead guitar.
I know! I watched it the other night! I was really happy to see he got that double neck back.
Wow. Wow.... I love this video it was fantastic! Can't wait for the demons. Axs's
A couple of notable roles he had to turn down were "Flashdance" and "Die Hard"
Hes a scrub with money. Who cares. Kiss blow
Thanks,I enjoyed that🤘
Gene Simmons was good at playing the bad guy and he did a good job at appearing in films where he fit the role. For me his highlights in cinema are the films Runaway and Wanted: Dead or Alive which he starred opposite of Rutger Hauer, he’s actually very serviceable in these films and I do believe that him being in Kiss ultimately led to being in films just a secondary endeavor.
Meanwhile poor old Paul was carrying the heavy Kiss load! I quite like Trick or Treat in a cheezy sort of way. Got it on DVD and it’s prohibitively expensive on Blu ray.
Trick or treat is one of my favorite horror movies of all time it has nothing to do with Gene in it but he does play a great role I wish she was in it more
Many thanks Sean✌️
I think you're Bill Ward's illegitimate son😅😅. Anyway, Gene sucks. The only success and real money he ever made in his life is when the original kiss was together, anything else he failed miserably
