Unlike Ace and Peter, who grew up in the streets , were street smart , and developed social skills to make friends, Gene and Paul lacked them, but compensated for them by their hard and relentless work ethic. It’s a pity they couldn’t learn from each other instead of complementing each other only as band members.

I agree, Peter and Ace were amazing!!! Paul and Gene as well, but I didn't think my boy Peter the Catman Criss and Ace got their due in the early days and prime!!! It is a shame that the highest selling American rock band sad to say over the years have bashed each other and said very nasty things to each other? You would think they would be proud of their accomplishments and just let it go already!!! It is proof that fame and fortune doesn't always equal to happiness!!! 🤦

I Always remember looking at Circus and Cream Magazines. The Top 10 bands So they say that we’re voting by the fans. The 10 Ten drummers. The best 10 guitar players. The top 10 vocalist and it was always Led Zeppelin number one and KISS number two and then the next month it would be Kiss number one and Led Zeppelin number two, Aerosmith three and so on. But it was always Kiss and Led Zeppelin that held the number one and two spots. For both band, best guitarist, best drummer, which I find so hard to believe because give me a fucking break Peter, Doesn’t hold a light next to the great late John “BONZO” Bonham
