In this month’s episode, we talk about the passing of original KISS guitarist, Ace Frehley. We also take the opportunity to discuss our top ten Ace songs, inspired by the Rolling Stone article 10 Essential Ace Frehley Songs. In typical Ages of Rock fashion, we each put our own spin on our lists. We also discussing the evolution of Ace’s playing style across different albums. Before we began our lists, Bill shared his recent Halloween experience where he displayed a Gene Simmons blow-up figure and purchased a limited edition reissue of the Dressed to Kill album, which came with a large poster and was shipped in a thick foam box. We discussed the quality of record packaging, with Dennis mentioning a rare Asia album that was also well-packaged. We discussed concert tickets, with Dennis sharing his recent purchase of Foo Fighters tickets for an upcoming show in Nashville. Allen recounted his cover band’s Halloween performance at Bokeh Lounge and showed a photo of his costume.
