Ace Frehley Lessons

Post by Paul Wolfe »

Ace Frehley and KISS are the reason I started playing guitar back in the day, so I was thrilled to find video lessons from Ace himself online teaching Cold Gin and Shock Me! Here are the lessons, enjoy.

Watching these, I've got to admit that Ace is average at best, but even he admits he's not great. He just has "it" and his playing still inspires me to pick up my guitar. I'll never be on an equal footing with Randy's talent, but once I work up the nerve to write a song or two of my own, I feel I can work my way up to Ace's level, and that would be good enough for me. Ace Frehley influenced more guitar players than most of the "greats" out there - whether people admit it or not. I'd be happy to be able to play at his level and write songs as memorable as his.

Ace definitely had the best songs in KISS; from the early on, as far as I´m concerned! Cold Gin, Parasite, Strange Ways etc... My old band used to play "Parasite" back in the day :lol: Ozzy, Steppenwolf, The Cult & even ZZTop!!! I guess we couldn´t really pick one style of songs or something... :) Well, at least we learned quite a bit playing different things. By the way, Ace´s "No Regrets" is the best book I´ve read this year, when it comes to rock (or any- ) biographies :mrgreen: Put on your black leather! :mrgreen: :wink:
