Obviously Ace put out more albums but this is the era where I was a dedicated Rock Soldier.
While I had it all back in the day it's taken a while to rebuild the collection but just yesterday Trouble Walkin' arrived so collection is complete!
Which is your favorite Ace album?
I don't know if it's just me, but whenever I listen to God Gave Rock 'N' Roll To You II or Beth, I cry. Honestly, I cried on the first song because I learned that it was the final thing Eric Carr played before passing away from heart cancer. It's such a beautiful song. I even teared up when I listened to Eric Carr sing Beth as well.
Ik it’s not as creative but it was last minute💔
I am not well versed in KISS lore. Looking for any Wheres Waldo moments in all of this!
The guitars sounded weak and to be honest has their worst songs. The cover art.is awful also. I liked the songs better on Alive by far but aside a couple songs like Parasite could never get into this album
Vinnie Toro (misread as Vinnie Torg by Mike Douglas).
Vincent Joseph Toro (39) was charged with two counts of sexual assault, one count of aggravated assault and battery, plus kidnapping. The police also had a previous warrant out on him for narcotics. At the time of his arrest (February 23rd, 1982), he was described as unemployed and divorced. He was living at his brother’s townhouse in the Avenel community of Woodbridge, NJ. Vincent kidnapped a seven-year old girl from a Maplewood neighborhood street using a rented vehicle and took her back to his residence to sexually assault her. It was strongly felt he’d re-offend, so the judge threw the book at him and gave the maximum 30-year sentence. The judge called Vincent’s attack on the victim (on February 22nd, 1982), “sordid, heinous & depraved.” He was convicted and sentenced in March, 1982 and died in prison at the age of 44 in 1987. His cause of death wasn't listed. The victim much later detailed the entire horrific ordeal and her story ran in several publications geared towards women.
