One of the first albums I ever owned at the ripe age of 4. Back in the NY Groove I always loved.

File with Les Dudek, Steve Hunter, Leslie West's "The Great Fatsby," Hookfoot, Black Sheep, Blackjack, the Good Rats sans the stupid puns and songs about sleeping with hundreds of boys, Trigger (also on Casablanca and, indeed, even superior to Ace solo)...

I really don't remember anything from Ace's record or any of the other solo records, except "Back in the New York Groove" and it's as classic as anything Kiss ever did. I like Russ Ballard songs.

Yes indeed! And it's on the ... Tasty album. [Rim shot.] I really don't remember anything from Ace's record or any of the other solo records
See, famous journeyman 70's guitarist -- even with big name.
I like Russ Ballard songs.
Russ is cooler than Ace, proving what I've said on ILX previously -- Ace sort of has a little taste or can take good advice from colleagues and management. "Since You've Been Gone," however,earned Ballard a lot more money and mileage than "Groove." AndI'll take Argent's catchy tunes over many allegedly catchy tunes by Kiss -- solo or otherwise. Hmmm, Kiss even covered Argent,one good song on an otherwise rotten album.
And, it's true, I'm Peter Criss incognito. They'd sacked me by thenand I'm still bitter.

Your lightnin’s all I needMy satisfaction growsYou make me feel at easeYou even make me glowDon’t cut the power on meI’m feelin’ low, so get me high
Shock me, make me feel betterShock me, put on your black leatherShock me, we can come together
And baby, if you do what you’ve been toldMy insulation’s gone, girl you make me overload
Don’t pull the plug on me, no, noKeep it in and keep me high
Shock me, make me feel betterShock me, put on your black leatherShock me, we can come togetherCome on
Shock me, baby, shock me, oh yeahShock me, baby, shock me, oh yeah
Shock me, make me feel better, oh yeahCome on and shock me, put on your black leatherBaby, I’m down to the bare wireShock me, we can come togetherOh yeah, I wanna feel your powerShock me, make me feel betterBaby, I’m down to the bare wireShock me, put on your black leatherBaby, come on, come on, shock me I hate when somebody post an entire song, but Gawd How Great Is This?

By far, without a doubt, an awesome song. I downloaded it mislabeled as being by the New York Dolls and I searched endlessly to find out who really did it and it was driving me nuts and it is easily the best thing any member of KISS has ever associated themselves with.

I'm sure that Ace has gotten lost a few times going to gigs, sometimes while going to the stage.
