Paul: "everyone messed up but me!" Gene: "everyone messed up but me because I am a perfect being!" Peter: "they were all F-ups!" Ace: "we were all F-ups!"
Exactly. No one ever credits Paul or Gene as their inspiration as musicians. Gene's bass playing doesn't go beyond root-towing four or five notes, and Paul's playing is Nirvana-levels of basic rhythm.
Paul made women want to wear lycra leotards with head and wrist bands and do work out videos to really horrible 80s commercial music He was their role model 🤣 Paul always had a fem side
Paul is so worried about the others outshining him when he really shouldn't...because they can't outshine him...face it he wrote some of the greatest rock n roll songs ever written...he should be satisfied with that. But he almost spoils his own greatness by not realizing his own greatness. You don't need to put the others down to make yourself look great Paul...you are great!
Every rockstar from the 80s and 90s Called Ace Frehley their guitar hero. You don’t hear a lot of people saying they became a guitar player because of Paul Stanley, or Gene Simmons.
Paul says Peter was a "moaner", but Paul is even bigger in that department. He hasn't let up on the slugging of Ace and Peter for 22 years. This clip is evidence of that.
Why the CONSTANT need to tear down Peter and Ace is beyond me. I think deep down Paul is angry because he knows how much of the fanbase loves Ace and Peter more than him. Give credit where credit is due. Maybe Peter takes longer than you...truth is....nobody...not even Paul sounds better than Peter on Hard Luck Woman.
Even if Ace was conscious for even 20 mins a day, to have someone that has created some of the most memorable guitar patterns and solos in rock history is worth to keep in my opinion.
I listened to all of them. And I did not find any of them being particularly amazing. It was not like the Beatles who all produced amazing albums both together and solo. It was obvious that KISS was better as a band. Like WAY better.@@repentnow1720
Ace is the only member of Kiss I actually like, but he wasn’t the type to hold a band together. If anything, he should have left the band a couple albums earlier
Admit it or not, KISS cemented their legend in the years 1973-1978; beyond that, though not all bad by any means, what they produced afterwards on its own would not have changed that fact much, one way or the other!..
Peter's drumming was great and gave Kiss their swing and down to earth rock & roll sound. If Paul is too high on himself to even admit that, there's not much to be done to put him back in touch with reality.
The story of KISS as a band goes through all of the best movie or book genres: A thriller, comedy, drama, romance, sleaze, mystery and above all a soap opera. There are plenty of bands with interesting histories but KISS are one of the most fascinating and they are a great example of how difficult it is to get the top and remain there.
I'm very conservatives and straight edge. I don't get upset with Gene and Paul wanting things professional and not messed by drugs and booze. At the same time I think it's very clear Gene and Paul are very upset and jealous that Ace is clearly the best musician of the group and the biggest hit the group ever had was from Peter.
I am conservative too and I generally believe people get what they deserve, and what they earn. I am not a fan of the band, especially of the jew half. But I believe sometimes things work out the way they do for unknown reasons. I'm glad both Ace and Peter got their due. Money isn't everything.
Rock n roll Over is one of the best Kiss album, and all members, Paul, Gene, Ace and Peter do an excellent musical job in that recording, and it's so tight. Peters drumming is excellent and groovy and great sounding. Recording process in studio is a hard work, and the result in the specific Rock n Roll Over is GREAT. Just listen to that album, now THAT is THE sound of REAL KISS!
When i see Videos from the Concerts around 1976-78 ! I think Ace or Peter were at the Top of their Game ! I really enjoy to see these Concerts around 1976-78 👍
It's common sense now, that Ace saved his stuff for his solo album, but whiny Paul can't deal with the fact that Ace's album is by faaaar the best one of the 4!
Gene's album was by far the best, his has the same musicians and producers who made Meatloafs Bat out of Hell album, it's head and shoulders more professional sounding than the other 3.
Todd Rundgren produced and played guitar on Bat Out of Hell. He also did background vocals and many other duties. Todd had nothing to do with Gene's solo album.
I’m pretty sure Paul couldn’t care less that Ace had the best solo album (according to some). That was 45 years ago. Can only imagine how devastated he is after ending their career in arenas while Ace plays clubs.
The other 2 solo albums sucked big time, Stanley had some real soppy stinkers on his and Frehley proved he could have been so much more if he had sobered himself up. Nice to see he finally went out with a pro quality backing band decades later
That live scene at 1:45 captures the essence of Kiss at their best. Pause it and take a look at the crowd when the camera pans out. Every kind of person, completely absorbed in the moment.
When Paul says Peter is no Jon Bonham I thought YES! And you Paul are no Jimmy Page on the guitar and definitely couldn't come close to Robert Plant. Dude was so full of himself he actually thinks he could compare to Led Zeppelin?!
I think that LZ are more overrated than Kiss. Jimmy Page is a average player and Plant with his cries and oeh oeh in every song. Very boring and dated. Plus Kiss exist 50 years, and LZ? Speak alone the number of albums Kiss has more made than LZ. But every one his of her taste.
I met Eddie Kramer. He told me that on Alive!, there were tons of overdubs, but Peter's drums were all live, no overdubs. He also said Peter had the best singing voice of the four.
Not Jazz but Swing and Big Band; Peter was a swing and big band style drummer and it fit with the stuff KISS was doing at that time. As for Paul saying Peter didn't play a musical instrument, Drums are the Oldest Musical Instrument in History but they are Not a String or oral used instrument. PS Paul and Gene have Always whined about everybody in KISS except themselves.
John Bonham and Ian Paice were also massively influenced by jazz drummers like Max Roach. That’s why all those guys sounded so great. Peter Criss was great for Kiss, playing wise at least. And Paul Stanley was hardly a virtuoso…
Paul waited until everyone else wrote or cowrote their autobiographies then he wrote his to have the final say. You can be sure he skimmed over the other ones then counter pointed their stories
And Bonham would have been in the audience bobbing his head along and smiling. Truly great drummers listen to and love a boatload more than they generally bring to their band styles.
"We were lucky if we could get a solo out of Ace before he passed out." Even luckier that every solo Ace recorded with them was a perfect little composition, filled with style and flare, and not a wasted note. I don't think Ace ever recorded a throwaway solo for them. Each one was memorable.
Paul you don't need to be a jerk or jealous of the attention your other band mates get that you don't ...the bottom line is that you've written some of the coolest greatest rock n roll songs of all time!
It doesn't benefit his bank account to put out new albums when nobody buys them. He makes money playing the old stuff. KISS was a nostalgia act for it's last 30+ years complete with Ace and Peter lookalikes.
It's weird what he's saying about Ace here, because I seem to recall in the Kisstory book them saying that Ace was very involved when making Rock & Roll Over and was happy to be working with Eddie Kramer again. As for Peter, I think Paul was/is just jealous of him.
Yeah, I mean Paul will always legend (especially 2 himself). But, it must’ve bugged him to no end that Peter singing a soft ballad vs his screeching for notes is what gave em a chart topping hit
Paul war es der Kiss seit den 90er bis heute am Leben erhalten hat, sonst niemand aus der Band hätte Kiss am leben erhalten und dafür bin ich Paul soooo dankbar, für diese grandiosen Jahrzehnte, danke Paul !!!!!
Paul did hold it together. Between Ace and Peter's personal issues and then Gene wanting to be Madonna for awhile, Paul Stanley was there holding on to what they had. Had he let go for even a second the whole thing would have flown off in all directions and would have never been able to piece it back again.
Hey Man Rock and Roll Over was my first Kiss album when I was 8 . Think everyone involved on that album was awesome! I don't give 2 shits what Paul says about Ace and Peter .
My first album ever and to this day my favorite KISS album. Nobody ever talks how it is one of the best, clearest recordings ever. Gibsons through a Marshall can't be beat. You can hear every instruments separation. I often wonder if this was recorded on vacuum tube equipment since that is always the clearest, crispest analogue way to go. Zero polish.
It didn't matter to the vast majority of '70s Kiss fans that Destroyer was "different," because the first two albums those fans heard were Alive and Destroyer. For me, it was "Rock And Roll All Nite," then various Destroyer songs at junior high sock-hops, then the album Destroyer that I bought, then Alive. I forgot if I bought Rock And Roll Over or The Originals after that. As for the drum sound, they did eventually achieve that big drum sound on "Larger Than Life," and then on the Creatures album with Eric Carr. Maybe they finally found the correct production techniques by then.
He's right, Peter could never play like John Bonham because he was PETER CRISS, and was more jazz based and had his OWN style, just like ONLY John Bonham could be John Bonham.
I understand Paul’s frustrations with Ace and Peter, and I honestly see a lot of truth in what he narrates in his book, but I feel he could’ve done it with a lot more class and respect to both of them.
100% man! Of course the drugs and the problems and the tensions were real. But so is Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons' forever passive-aggressive bitterness and negativity toward Ace & Peter -- after the fact! I mean, it's not like either of them stopped P&G from becoming multi-millionaires. 'Nuff said...
One half of KISS: "Everything we did was awesome - they wouldn't do anything." One half of KISS: "Everything we did was dismissed - they wouldn't let us do anything."
Peter was a nightmare! Ace was a nightmare! I'm Paul Stanley and in less than 5 minutes you can hear me blame my own mother for my problems in life when you purchase the audio book version of my KISS memoirs! Yay me!
Baby driver was the best song on the album Paul is just a woman in man's body I don't know anyone who Said or has said I want to play like Paula Stanley.
They surely continued without Peter & Ace…. If Ace & Peter were the great musicians people claim they are , they would have been much more successful than Paul & Gene….. Ace & Peter could have been much better but let stardom go to their heads. They never grew as musicians. Paul definitely acknowledged Ace’s musicianship. But Ace ‘s head blew up. I love Ace but his guitar playing basically stagnated not long after he left KISS. He could have and should have become a much better musician.
@@michaelkeller971 Pfft they are a laughing stock for the crap "kiss" produced post Ace and Peter...heavens on fire and bad habit HAHAHAHA Joke of a band living off of songs 50 years ago.
It's called rock and roll, especially in the 70's. Paul and Gene are a couple of old ladies. Aerosmith are the kings of excess, and their best albums were done while loaded. Granted, it is unsustainable, but I'll take those albums over their "sober" albums.
@@mickeyflick9664 Megadeth was at its best when Mustaines veins were pure heroin. Jimi Hendrix anyone. Now Its a horrible drug that kills many, but like Bill Hicks said "if you are against drugs, go home and burn every album you have. Because every one of them had musicians that were really HIGH"

Mr. Speed was an awesome, underrated song.

Yes, it was. Absolutely replayed it over and over again.
"Rock & Roll Over" is definitely one of my top 5 KISS albums.
I agree, it is in my top 30.
Baby Driver is a monster song so stick it up yer' Arse Paul
My top
One of my favorites from them for sure.
Paul can't handle that so many famous musicians credit Ace as being the guy that made them want to play music you never hear that claim about Paul
Exactly. No one ever credits Paul or Gene as their inspiration as musicians. Gene's bass playing doesn't go beyond root-towing four or five notes, and Paul's playing is Nirvana-levels of basic rhythm.
Absolutely!! You get tired of Gene and Paul's shtick. Watching the Live footage of Kiss from the 70's, it was Ace that always fascinated me.
Paul made women want to wear lycra leotards with head and wrist bands and do work out videos to really horrible 80s commercial music
He was their role model 🤣
Paul always had a fem side

Peter singing Black Diamond live is about the best KISS performence ever
Nothin to Lose live is great too.
Black Diamond is my favorite!!!
Paul was the best singer in KISS, but best voice? 100% Peter, all day.
LOLZ
yup....
I read Ace's book and he really didn't rag on anyone. All Paul can do is piss and moan how everybody was just screwing His career up!!!
🤠... and why does the guy feel the need to piss and moan, when he lived his dream? Or so he says.
For real, shits over anyway…or are there more books or releases coming? lol jeez

But he almost spoils his own greatness by not realizing his own greatness. You don't need to put the others down to make yourself look great Paul...you are great!
Ace IS one of the greats! I don't think I've seen a band rag on ex band mates publicly the way Kiss does.
As much as I love their music, entertainers are the biggest prima donnas of all time.

Rock and Roll Over, A+. What a great album. That is my favorite studio disc by KISS Mark 1.
Every rockstar from the 80s and 90s Called Ace Frehley their guitar hero. You don’t hear a lot of people saying they became a guitar player because of Paul Stanley, or Gene Simmons.
I think the only people Gene inspired to take up the bass were the ones that said "hell, is that all there's to it?I can do that!"
C'mon Paul, Ace was a blessing...you had the best guitarist, Ace was pure genius.
I"TOTALLY" AGREE "💯💯👍 YEAH!!
Facts.
Paul says Peter was a "moaner", but Paul is even bigger in that department. He hasn't let up on the slugging of Ace and Peter for 22 years. This clip is evidence of that.
Yes, he never takes his foot off their throats so to speak.
Peter (admittedly) can be moody or short-tempered, but he was never mean-spirited to anyone, and never went around slagging the rest of the planet.
Why the CONSTANT need to tear down Peter and Ace is beyond me. I think deep down Paul is angry because he knows how much of the fanbase loves Ace and Peter more than him.

You obliviously did not read the book he ripped on himself far more
I know but it is true about Peter..even bob. erzin said so
Ever notice it's never Paul's fault for anything.
I wonder if Peter hears Paul say "Peter Criss would never be John Bonham" and thinks "Well, you ain't exactly no Robert Plant, either, Paul"...
😂😂😅 GD' ONE!! 😅😊😊
Ain't no Jimi Hendrix neither.
he's better than Robert Plant
@@swine74 At applying pancake, yes...
He's much closer to Robert plant than criss is to bonham.

AMEN brother, AMEN!
Admit it or not, KISS cemented their legend in the years 1973-1978; beyond that, though not all bad by any means, what they produced afterwards on its own would not have changed that fact much, one way or the other!..

Oh yes!
Actually, with the exception of Ace's solo album, you can leave out 1978.
@peterpaul Absolutely, as Ace’s masterpiece solo debut was indeed my only impetus for including 1978!..
I always said the same thing. 1st 3 albums were groundbreaking. Great Rock n roll, but after was about making money and putting songs on the radio
Peter's drumming was great and gave Kiss their swing and down to earth rock & roll sound. If Paul is too high on himself to even admit that, there's not much to be done to put him back in touch with reality.

I mean, it's not like either of them stopped P&G from becoming multi-millionaires. 'Nuff said...
One half of KISS: "Everything we did was awesome - they wouldn't do anything."
One half of KISS: "Everything we did was dismissed - they wouldn't let us do anything."
Baby Driver is my favorite song from R&RO
You don't need any more enemies when you have Paul and Gene as bandmates.....
Paul is the one you really gotta watch out for, Gene's bark is way worse than his bite. Paul is cattier than all nine of Peter's lives combined.
Peter was a nightmare! Ace was a nightmare! I'm Paul Stanley and in less than 5 minutes you can hear me blame my own mother for my problems in life when you purchase the audio book version of my KISS memoirs! Yay me!
Baby driver was the best song on the album Paul is just a woman in man's body I don't know anyone who Said or has said I want to play like Paula Stanley.
IMO Rock N Roll Over is their best album
I still think that Destroyer and Rock And Roll Over are fantastic.
Destroyer’s production lacked the live feel and raw sound
Thats saying alot cause Ace killed on Rock and Roll Over. Great Album
❤
I am sure it was a very rough time working with BIG HEADS Gene and Paul every day. (cause of course they are WAY better than everyone else!)
Without Peter and Ace Kiss would have not existed.They were the ones that made Kiss thrive
For sure
Sorry KISS band has always Been Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons 6:36
@@annwilkiemeyer3433 and how were they doing before Ace & Peter joined?
They surely continued without Peter & Ace…. If Ace & Peter were the great musicians people claim they are , they would have been much more successful than Paul & Gene….. Ace & Peter could have been much better but let stardom go to their heads. They never grew as musicians. Paul definitely acknowledged Ace’s musicianship. But Ace ‘s head blew up. I love Ace but his guitar playing basically stagnated not long after he left KISS. He could have and should have become a much better musician.
@@michaelkeller971 Pfft they are a laughing stock for the crap "kiss" produced post Ace and Peter...heavens on fire and bad habit HAHAHAHA Joke of a band living off of songs 50 years ago.
Whee can I watch the live footage at 1:48 it looks awesome and so clear ??
R.A.R.O. Is Kiss’s best studio album hands down.
I saw this tour feb 77long island ny
Dr Love is the perfect rock and roll song.
Paul as usual selling the Brand bash Ace and Peter and love love Tommy and Eric 🥺
It IS absolutely maddening to be around people who are constantly high or drunk when you are sober, particularly in a creative environment.
It's called rock and roll, especially in the 70's. Paul and Gene are a couple of old ladies. Aerosmith are the kings of excess, and their best albums were done while loaded. Granted, it is unsustainable, but I'll take those albums over their "sober" albums.
@@mickeyflick9664these bands have so much help from their labels it's hard to call it their music solely.
@@mickeyflick9664 Megadeth was at its best when Mustaines veins were pure heroin. Jimi Hendrix anyone. Now Its a horrible drug that kills many, but like Bill Hicks said "if you are against drugs, go home and burn every album you have. Because every one of them had musicians that were really HIGH"
