Episode 28 KISS Destroyer (A Tribute to Ace Frehley 1951-2025)
Thursday, 25 December, 2025
Terrence pays tribute to the late KISS co-founder/guitarist.songwriter Ace Frehley by looking at the masterpiece Destroyer which I originally intended for an episode in 2021/22 but sat on it until now and is the least I can do for Ace. Plus KISS news and unlike Dr Fukk and Ian Wadley and the schoolgirls at Rock and Metal Combat I don't goof on Paul Stanley's speech impediment because it's cruel and childish and they need to GROW UP and make amends with Free Form Rock Podcast's Marc Alden Taylor and TJR (yours truly) before it's too late and if losing Ozzy and Ace can't cause people to reconcile and be friends NOTHING WILL.0:00 Intro1:02 Losses up to speed3:27 Eulogizing Ace Frehley8:24 Eulogies from Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons and Peter Criss13:25 Making of Destroyer and History of the Album21:46 My Intro to the Destroyer album23:32 Detroit Rock City31:45 King of the Night Time World36:28 God of Thunder44:15 Great Expectations48:46 Flaming Youth52:17 Sweet Pain56:32 Shout It Out Loud1:00:08 Beth1:07:17 Do You Love Me1:10:45 Rock and Roll Party1:13:18 Release, reception and success1:15:07 Reissues, remasters, remixed Destroyer Resurrection and Super Deluxe Destroyer Box1:20:18 Updates, box set reissues, new Peter Criss album and the band honored by Trump at Kennedy Honors1:32:53 Picks of the Moment1:34:12 Plugs1:41:08 Ending and Credits#kiss #acefrehley #petercriss #genesimmons #paulstanley #tjrsclassicrockcorner
