The best of today's crop of metal guitarists got together for a tribute to perhaps one of rock's most influential figures in Ace Frehley. The best songs on the album include "Deuce" by Megadeth's Marty Friedman, "Shock Me" by Gilby Clarke, "Parasite" by Tracii Gunns, and a very "Beck-ish" (of Odelay, not Jeff) rendition of "New York Groove" by Bruce Bouillet. In fact, all the songs were quite good with the exception of John Norum's "Cold Gin" which had too much lead guitar work. It seemed like he was trying too hard to show off in a song that is simple to the core. Overall, it is a must have for anyone influenced by the style and personna of Ace Frehley.

I liked the album, but you have to get the import version which contains a great Ace tune called Take Me to the City by the man himself. It's worth the extra bucks.

This products showed up much earlier than promised and was in better condition than I anticipated! A+++++++!

i hope gene simmonds could understand that kiss with ace in the band is the best of the best rock band ever, and this cd is one of reasons that many gloriuous people made that.

Although I still can't understand what is 'Hard luck woman' (a Stanley/Criss song) doing there...
