There's a video of Jeff Porcaro demonstrating the Rosanna shuffle where he specifically mentions taking bits from both Fool In The Rain, as well as Home At Last by Steely Dan, which Bernard Purdie played on. Spot on with the references!

You should have switched Les Pauls throughout this just to keep in the spirit of the Ace video. 🤟🏽

Speaking of first thoughts, my first thought when I heard 'I Was Made for Lovin' You' when I was 8 was I want to play the guitar and here I am. The lyrics of both songs are completely different, but they are both about the exact same thing. Lost interest in Kiss over the years but I can't deny the course of my life was forever changed by them. My first guitar was even a sunburst Hohner Les Paul copy that looked exactly like the one he's playin'. Still relevant and playing the guitar I started with. Wow. Thanks Ace.

Ace is a trip! Saw him with KISS in the late 70's and then with Frehley's Comet in the late 80's. Did you catch his interview with Chris Shiflett on Premier Guitar?

Some people complain about the video corniness but forget thats really just Ace’s humor anyhow…but mainly the idea was probably to put the money in the producing of the music vs the video which makes sense to me… I mean Ace is killing it right now!!! Still cant believe KISS didnt even let him do one or two songs during the farewell tour on at least one of the shows… it would have been amazing for the fans and a live video like that would have so many views online paul and gene would have made money on the views alone.

My feelings: Most of the guitars on this album is played by Steve Brown for sure. The solo is definitely Ace. Not good, but this is Ace today. I think its good that he has a good musician backing him up, like on Frehleys Comet. Tod Howarth saved that project. All in all I`m happy for Ace!

Walkin' on the Moon is great. 10,000 Volts I just couldn't get into, even though I wanted to, because the Soundgarden was too strong. But this song?? This could've been on his 1978 album. And it was great to hear that Frehley back again.

I think you're right about purposely making it B movie vibe. I got the impression that the 2 aliens in the back were a hat tip to Robert Palmers video with those 2 hot chick's behind him who clearly weren't playing their guitars. No I thought this video was pretty neat if you look at it from that perspective. Song sounds like he was definitely a member of Kiss.

I honestly believe Steve Brown played A LOT of the guitars. Yes, it has an Ace-like vibe, but it is super-produced and has a level of fluidity that Ace no longer can do (if you've watched recent live footage). Just a theory.

I saw the song video when it first got uploaded, and I almost sent it to you but I knew you'd wanna wait so you could make a video about it. I think Ace was having the time of his life making this video, 80's ladies in the spacesuits would've been a cool addition. I can definitely hear the similarity in the shuffle. I do have a little sense of nostalgia for lyrics like these haha, they're fun and silly and I love it. Like Burn B**ch Burn - I wanna put my log in your fireplace 😂 I did have to laugh at those inflatable guitars haha. It sad to think all these rock stars we know and love are coming to the end of the road and they'll be gone one day, but the best thing is, that the music will live Forever 😊 Love the new shirt.

First of all, that is a rad LP Custom. Secondly, that music video looks like some kid put it together on his Mac in 30 minutes. It just makes me sad seeing all of these rock stars from the 70s and 80s still touring and making music. These guys are legends and still extremely talented, and I guess that desire to create music never goes away. But the guy is in his 70s still writing songs about girls? C'mon, dude...
