TALK TO ME: CONVERSATIONS WITH ACE FREHLEY
(from Amazon)
On October 16, 2025, the rock world
lost one of its true icons – when Ace Frehley passed away at the
age of 74. As the original "Spaceman" and lead guitarist in
Kiss, Frehley inspired and influenced countless other guitar
players in his wake.
Serving as a member of the band
throughout the '70s (an era in which the masked and costumed
group became one of the most popular and successful rock acts),
Frehley penned and/or sang many a Kiss classic, including "Cold
Gin," "Strange Ways," "Shock Me," "Rocket Ride," and "2000 Man."
And when all four Kiss members issued solo albums in 1978,
Frehley's is widely considered to be the best of the bunch –
serving as a true testament to his musical talents.
However, Frehley's life – both personally and professionally –
was marked with many highs and lows. But through it all, he
continued to be beloved by his legion of fans, and further
issued inspired and great music, right up until the end.
To celebrate the life and career of Ace, respected rock
journalist Greg Prato has compiled all of the many times he
interviewed Frehley over the years into a single book, TALK TO
ME: Conversations With Ace Frehley, covering a wide variety of
topics (from his Kiss years through his solo career, his
personal life, songwriting, his guitar playing and gear, etc.).
Also included are all-new and previously unpublished
"tribute interviews" with renowned names from the rock world.
Featuring Eddie Trunk, Joe Bonamassa, and Soundgarden's Kim
Thayil (as well as a short but colorful chat with Rush's Alex
Lifeson), among others, who share their memories and thoughts
about the guitarist, and discuss how they would like him to be
remembered. Plus, a foreword provided by Matt Pinfield, and many
vintage photos of Ace from throughout the years.
Through
these pages, Ace's voice, humor, and spirit live on – reminding
us why the original Spaceman will forever shine among rock's
brightest stars.

KISS
DRUMMERS: THE HEARTBEAT OF THE HOTTEST BAND IN THE WORLD
Every band needs a heartbeat, and in KISS, that heartbeat has
always come from behind the drum kit. From Peter Criss’s jazzy
swagger and raw street-level power, to Eric Carr’s thunderous
double-bass attack and fiery determination, to Eric Singer’s
precision and versatility, the drummers of KISS shaped not only
the sound of the band but its very soul.
In KISS
Drummers: The Heartbeat of the Hottest Band in the World, Joey
Cassata — a lifelong professional drummer and die-hard KISS fan
— takes you on an inside journey through the rhythm and history
of KISS. With stories, insights, and reflections, the book dives
deep into how each drummer left their mark, from the early club
days to the sold-out arenas, from studio struggles to
unforgettable live performances.
Packed with
never-before-seen photos, rare documents, and exclusive
materials straight from the archives, this book offers a
behind-the-scenes look that fans have never experienced before.
This is not just another KISS book. It’s the untold story of
the men who sat on the throne, steering the band through
triumph, turmoil, and transformation. Without them, the

heartbeat.
