When Ace Frehley laughs, he sounds like Batman’s great foe, The Penguin – and he laughs a lot as he talks to Classic Rock about some of the music that has shaped his eventful life.
Born Paul Daniel Frehley in New York City on April 27, 1951, he became a world-famous rock star in the 70s as lead guitarist in Kiss, which he left in 1982 and embarked on a solo career. That was put on hold temporarily when he rejoined Kiss in 1992 for a reunion tour. He's been bickering with them ever since.
