Not only did they all make a solo album, but they were all released on the same day! No band has ever done that before or since. Each album was certified platinum.😎
Ace Frehley contains the cover hit single "New York Groove", which was originally written by Russ Ballard and recorded by Hello in 1975. The song would prove to be a major hit for Frehley and boosted sales for its parent album. The album would also prove to be the most successful of the four Kiss solo albums.
The stage was a tempory structure that Kiss Had Built for this preformance. If you research the Kiss Solo Alblums you'll see the artwork was similar and had drawings of all 4 of their faces in full makeup tieing the records together and the only hit off all 4 records was this song from Ace's record "Back in the New York Groove" and I always found it funny because his New York accent was strong when he sang.
Accept no imitations! I love seeing the great Ace Frehley playing his wicked Les Paul! Sure, he wasn't the best singer, but you can't deny his guitar chops! Thanks for this reaction! I'm a KISS fan from '75!
Awesome song from an awesome era of Ace Frehley (the guy singing, original lead guitarist of KISS)..... THE WARNING these days is writing and performing hard rock at this and a higher level even, and are influenced by KISS but young and contemporary but still hitting hard like these guys originally did!
Fulton Ferry Landing is the location of this performance. Rock And Roll All Night was broadcast to end the 1996 MTV VMA's . Setlist: Rock And Roll All Night New York Groove Calling Dr. Love Deuce Love Gun The location is near the base of the Brooklyn Bridge, on the Brooklyn side, not the Manhattan Island side. Drummer Peter Criss is a Brooklyn native....
Great reaction Travis and Suzi! I must say that giving people the ability to share live performances for your reaction (for a cost but well worth it in my opinion) is a great thing!
If I remember correctly this was during the American music awards or the grammys I can't remember which. This is when they announced the reunion tour up on stage with Tupac.
Ace Frehley departed KISS in 1981 but this song had a tremendous impact on, of all people, the New York Yankees. They made it a theme song in the stadium after KISS played there in 1996.
The track is a cover by Ace Frehley for his solo album in 1978. The song is originally written by English musician Russ Ballard, and the English band Hello did their cover and released their version of it in 1975.
Hey guys idk if it was commented before but the venue was at Fulton Ferry Landing next to the Brooklyn Bridge. I don’t know if it’s a venue but they could’ve just built a small stage and set it up for the night. I’ve seen this happen a few times.
So epic that they did this from Aces solo album. What a different world we lived in that night. Kiss was back together, makeup and all. Wtf happened? As a guitarist Ace is a huge influence well, just about everyone my age. Wts. You guys should really check out Paul's solo album. Some of the best vocals ever from him. God bless.

@@robertphelps1574 according to Wikipedia the original was recorded by the writer in Russ Ballard which you can find on You Tube but I prefer the version by " Hello "
Not sure if you know this but Kiss is from Queens. Which is next door to Brooklyn. My mother's car had power windows in the 60's so you gotta go real far back before cars didn't have them. I know because she was driving in the summer one time with me in the passenger seat with my head out the window. She told me to pull my head in because she was closing the window but I didn't hear her. The next thing I know the window was strangling me. LOL. I think I kicked her with my foot before she realized and opened it again. But with my mom, I am not entirely sure that wasn't on purpose.
Ace Frehley recorded the track for his solo album in 1978 but it's actually a cover. New York Groove was written by English musician Russ Ballard, and the British band Hello recorded their version and released it in 1975.
@@neillenet291 No, that's not what you said. You said, "This isn't actually a Kiss song, it's an Ace Frehley solo song." It's not Ace Frehley's song either, mate. Frehley did a cover. It's Russ Ballard's song. He wrote it and the band Hello released their version in 1975. Frehley covered the song in 1978. At the urging of Eddie Kramer, who produced Frehley's solo album, Kramer pushed Frehley to do a cover of New York Groove. Frehley resisted and then finally decided to record it. Good thing for him because it became his biggest hit off his solo album, and the biggest single out of all four of the solo works by the rest of the Kiss members.
Normally I don't post negative reviews because there's enough bad going on but I hope it will be received as constructive criticism. NYG @ BB is one of my favorite videos. Every second was fantastic IMO. I was really looking forward to this 'reaction' video but you spent more time talking about the location and windows that have nothing to do with the substance of this. You never once mouthed 'Ace Frehley'. My expectations were high and was disappointed big time in your effort.
This is one of the only good live performances of this song I’ve heard! Sadly Ace isn’t the rock god he used to be and even on that tour his skills were deteriorating as the farewell tour went on. 😩 Wish they would’ve done ‘Rip It Out’ off his solo record instead but Peter probably couldn’t play that song on drums to save his life. 🤷♂️😅
Why do you always choose the WORST version of every KISS song that you react to? I can understand that happening a FEW times. But out of all of the KISS UA-cam videos out there... every single time, you choose the worst version.
@@kissjjb I wasn't sure if they had or not. I only infrequently watch their reactions. Having been a diehard KISS fan for 45+ years, I love every "incarnation"...& the music from each era. (With Carnival Of Souls & Monster being the only studio albums I've never owned.) But if these 2 kids have NEVER reacted to an actual live version from the 1970s, then they haven't reacted to a "proper" live KISS experience. Yes, the reunion tour might have been the original members, but IMO it was far from the same "hunger" & energy that they had before 1978-79. That's simply my unasked for opinion.😁😁
THEY SHIPPED A MILLION COPIES OF EACH....ON THE SAME DAY. ACEs SOLD THE MOST BUT WHAT DIDN'T WIND UP IN BARGAIN BINS WERE SHIPPED BACK TO THE COMPANY FOR DESTRUCTION. THOUGH THEY love TO LIE ABOUT THEM ALL going PLATINUM ON SHIPPING DAY. OH THE KISS MYTH. IT'S ACTUALLY SAD ....AND FULL OF LIES.

Same day but different times of the day
No. Only Ace's was. Look it up. Gene just likes to brag up....
@@conorbutler4808 ???? What? Same day… all released on the same day. All platinum.
Yes…100% accurate. All solo albums released on the same day in September 1978, all certified platinum.
Paul's was the best

Ace's solo album was always my favorite 🎸 even though I had all of them ( I gave them to my son, my little kissfreak 🤪🤘✌️
One of the biggest guitar 🎸 playing music great song great concert

You guys should get into some Frehley's Comet. Ace has some good solo stuff. My favorite is Into the Night.
Please react to Shock Me live! But not the Tommy Thayer version ya did last time we want the OG Ace Frehley version 🙏🤘
If I remember correctly this was during the American music awards or the grammys I can't remember which. This is when they announced the reunion tour up on stage with Tupac.
September 4, 1996, at the MTV Video Music Awards, already long into their reunion tour, that started on July 2, 1996.
Yeah, all four KISSers released solo albums simultaneously in 1978 or thereabouts. NYG was the hit from Ace's.
They all created a Solo Album, but still all under the banner of KISS..............Aces was by far the best of the bunch.
Ace Frehley departed KISS in 1981 but this song had a tremendous impact on, of all people, the New York Yankees. They made it a theme song in the stadium after KISS played there in 1996.
Was also a tune in New York Ink on Dmax about tattoo. Didn't know it was from 1978 until now.

The original version

@@billfairbank5258 there is a radio interview where Russ Ballard says he wrote the song for Hello in the studio
NOICE one Coily! AWK! \m/
OUT OF THE FOUR SOLO ACE IS MY FAVORITE
There is NO 'bridge' at our Brooklyn!

You could hear KISS even if your windows were rolled up.
Even French group Rockets had silver makeup between end of 70s and starting 80s.
❤️❤️❤️
That old Russ Ballard song. Nice !
Reaction echoed😆
😁
I like Ace's solo album better then the other guys and i think its better the some kiss albums hey look just pointing this out its my personal opinion
Well guys there was this other band called the Beatles that their members all had somewhat good success as solo artists. Lol.
Is that the real Ace?
That's the Bo Diddly beat.
This isn't actually a Kiss song, it's an Ace Frehley solo song. These guys all put out solo albums on the same day, 4 of them
Someone didn't watch this whole video lol.
@@lyricalrocker3410 nope.

They built a stage just for kiss
all the solo albums were released at the same time. it was a thing.
Both booted out of Kiss for doin'/takin' drugs, hearsay.

The show wasn’t on the bridge it was under it
There is no stage they were on a barge or I believe a makeshift stage
A band splitting up, all members going on to single careers? Never heard it happen, ooooohhhhh hang on, the beatles.
Kiss at it's best...All 4 original members in sync doing what they no...Not this crap line up they have had for 20 years...
Out of 4 albums, they were all trash except for one AWESOME song. Thank God for space man
