Gene Simmons,Ace Frehley/Autralia 2018

In 2018, Gene Simmons and Ace Frehley of KISS, whose respective solo activities were active, recreated the night when they shared the same stage. This is when Ace played a live show in Australia just before coming to Japan as a solo artist, and was the opening act for the Gene Simmons Band. Both are coupled and recorded in high quality audience recording. First of all, Ace’s set was short at 65 minutes as it was the opening act, but the set was the same as the Japanese performance except for Thin Lizzy’s “Emerald” and Gene’s “Deuce”. The backing members for both Ace and Gene are the same, and when Ace came to Japan, the drummer was Christopher Williams from ACCEPT, but here he is a member of Gene’s band and has a deep understanding of KISS numbers, so the lead role was swapped. Supported by an iron-clad ensemble. And the main point is that the main gene is a full set lasting one and a half hours, and the set is completely different from when they came to Japan in 2017. By the way, here are covers of “I Was Made for Lovin’ You,” “Are You Ready,” and “Long Tall Sally,” which you couldn’t hear in Japan, as well as debut album “Love Theme from Kiss” and “Plaster” from LOVE GUN. Caster”, “Charisma” from “DYNASTY”, “She’s So European” from “UNMASKED”, and “I” from “MUSIC FROM “THE ELDER””, all of which are extremely rare numbers that would never be found in the original KISS. . In the encore, Ace reappeared, closing with “Deuce” and “Rock and Roll All Nite,” a must-listen item for fans of the past. (Disc 1 : ACE FREHLEY) 1. Intro: Fractured Mirror 2. Parasite 3.
