Ace Frehley Guitar Solo Tokyo Japan 1977

[@marklechman2225]

When Ace was on top of his game he was unstoppable.

[@ronaldshank7589]

This was recorded back in 1977, & I find it to be amazing, what Ace Frehley was able to do on Lead Guitar Solos, such as this. Then-Beginning in 1978, with the release of the KISS SINGLES ALBUMS, things began to start to crumble, little by little. It wasn't Ace's fault. The guys in the Band wanted some time away from each other, so that's how the whole Single Albums thing came about. It gave everyone in KISS some "Breathing Room"...so to speak. Then came 1979. Paul and Gene wanted to go a different direction, in terms of musical styles, and Stage Apparel...and, as we all know by now, that's when the "Kingdom", known as KISS, began to REALLY experience a lot of problems. The two Main People, Paul and Gene, wanted to go with more of a Glammy look, and to do music, that was more Power-Pop, than anything else. They toned their music down, too...and, of course, people picked up on that right away, and began to stop listening to KISS. In 1980, Peter Criss was gone, but it's only recently surfaced, that he was actually fired from KISS, instead of quitting, like we'd been told. By late 1982, even Ace Frehley decided he'd had enough, and was out of KISS. Whatever will be, will be.

[@gop4usa12]

What impresses me more about Ace Frehley is that I recently read he never had any kind of formal guitar lessons and admits to being musically illiterate. Yet unable to distinguish the notes, chords, and keys, he's still able to create the right sounds. His story should inspire the rest of us to look past the elitist snobs and show the world what we can do. Educated or uneducated, skilled or unskilled, trained or untrained; we deserve the chance to prove what we can do beyond the barriers of institutionalized qualifications.

[@nervnervnervnervnerv]

Myself and millions of other musicians worldwide are fully capable of the same thing, having no musical knowledge whatsoever myself, i've been playing 11 years, in many bands, without a hitch. Not to discredit Ace, he's top 5 guitarists for me easily, but you have to think that he got a lucky break meeting Gene and Paul in 1972. Plus, they wrote the songs, he merely wrote the lead for the songs, while important, without the foundation, Kiss could've never happened.

[@TheLarryburns84]

I've been playing the drums since I was 5, I'm 17 now. Never read any music, ever. Ace, despite the difference in instruments, has always been a big inspiration to prove that you don't need to know Bach inside and out to make some damn good music. that's all I got. sorry for the incoherent rambling BTW.

I remember as a teenager watching his smoking guitar solo with my parents my mom said to my dad My God HIS GUITAR IS ON FIRE!!! It was a golden moment I never forgot it?😆

[@ronaldshank7589]

Turns out, that it was actually a little smoke bomb, that he rigged in his Guitar, specifically designed for when he did the "Shock me" Lead Guitar Solo. There was apparently some type of a lighting device in a secret compartment in Ace's Guitar, and when that smoke bomb was lit, it was exciting to watch! How Ace didn't burn his fingers, I'll never know!

[@james---b]

@@ronaldshank7589this is before shock me.

[@Pamplemousse82322]

He designed it in early 1975. It was used in his solo during the longer jam version of "She". Then it was used in longer jam version of "Cold Gin", like in this video. Then in "Shock Me".

[@jamesdeansghost5531]

Yeah, lot of negative and positive things said about this guy. Maybe not the most technically brilliant ever... but for showmanship and memorable licks he certainly ranks up there. He fulfilled rock and roll audiences fantasies about what a guitar god should look like and sound like... and that has got to stand for something.

I play guitar and Ace is so underrated I find it genuinely puzzling. Ace will hardly ever be voted in the top 50 or guitarists of all time by the music press, or music elitists. But the fluidity, aggression, string bends and vibrato are among the very best. Maybe it's because he wears a weird stage costume music snobs find it hard to take seriously. And what's more he's doing all this while he's drunk!

[@mandrakeblackstone5838]

So true , most of the best musicians taught themselves how to play , read music and learn theory , to be a great musician you have to love music so much that you will sacrifice everything even sell your soul , and love it so much you are prepared to learn what you need to on your own and spend long hours just playing even if its on a crappy acoustic you found in a garbage bin with a warped neck a few missing frets and bent machine heads with only 4 strings .

@@vincentl.9469this is literally his solo. He’s normally playing licks in songs.

[@aaronlarsen7447]

I used to critique him, but he's self taught and made it happen anyway. He wasn't trained as a classical piano player at 6 yrs old. They didn't have KZbin and digital tuners. He was a working class kid. Lessons are expensive. He had the determination enough to satisfy the fans and be successful. So I don't hold his playing in the highest regard, but he gets extra respect points.

[@ouchyg]

Ace kicked ass on his solo's. But IMO what really makes him a legend was how good he was live all around. I dont think I have ever heard a guitar player play the guitar the way Ace played during the "Alive I" recordings. The guitar solo of nearly every song is so kick butt and yet soulful at the same time that - its mind blowing.

It drives me crazy in Kiss videos when the camera doesn't show the whole Ace solo. The director/editor is acting under direction from Paul and Gene. Paul and Gene want you to focus only on them.They do it all the time. Who wants to see Paul hacking away at a few power chords while wriggling his ass or Gene sticking out his tongue for the hundredth time while Ace is playing the only technically difficult part of the whole song. As a guitarist I find it infuriating. It's pathetic. Ace rocks.

I was a serious KISS fan when I was 6 years old after hearing the Hotter Than Hell album at my cousin’s house. I had my walls covered with those giant posters you could get at Spencers in the mall. I started to collect all their vinyl. I was an obese child. Largest in the school. Listening to KISS, in particular Ace because there was nothing uncool about him, and pursuing my love of rock and roll, I lost all my weight and was inspired to this day. I’m 55, a drummer, guitarist and vocalist and have spent time in several bands. Ace was by far my favorite of the band but Peters killer drum kit made me want to learn that first. I can’t say enough about how these men of KISS really helped me as a young and insecure round boy. They fueled my imagination and showed me the possible impossibilities and I love them for it. However, when I heard RUSH for the first time. That, was pure inspiration on a higher plane of consciousness. Ace is the best of KISS though just to nail down the point of this comment.
