Remastered CD's - The 2 x Invasion releases
has anyone bought these?
I still have the 2 original releases bought all those years ago when they came out.
Is it worth buying again with the remastered copies??

I got them recently, signed from Richie Ranno on Ebay, just to have them, they weren't very expensive.
I haven't played them yet but I've heard they do sound good, with the exception of the stupid edit of Love Kills, what a stupid thing to do that was. Ruins that release.
The first album has no problems like that.

I've got the old record player set up in one room and it still gets a go every now n then......and i've got VVI (1st album) on vinyl.poserboy71 wrote:Like anything Vinnie, It is best to play your old records ,listen to the hiss of the grooves, anticipate the skips, and relive your memories that way.
The remasters were disappointing. Especially the bullshit radio edit.
and COTN and lick it up come to think of it.
Might give em a crack over the weekend
I love getting out the '20 Golden Greats' by Credence.
Top album that cost me about a buck fitty
At least there were 4 new songs. I like them and I'm a Bob Kulick fan who always wished they would just let him play without saying play like Ace. They should be profoundly happy now that they have Tommy because all he does is play like Ace, sadly. Tommy Thayer copies Ace Frehley as well as Jon Levin copies George Lynch. The difference is that Ace is average at best and George is exceptional so it makes what Jon Levin is doing exceptional.

Hi Chris,
I still listen to Ace some times but he isn't any better than he was in 1977 and in some ways he isn't as good as he was in 1977. Music is Ace's chosen career but he just doesn't sound like a guy who has been playing guitar for 45 years. I bought Anomaly and I like several songs on it. Here's the truth though forget about his technique or lack of it Ace Frehley has probably motivated more people to start playing guitar than any other guitar player. This is certainly the case for the guitar players in my age group in my town. He is without a doubt one of the most influencial guitar players in history even though he never achieved icon playing status with other guitar players like Paul, Hendrix, Page, Beck, Roth, Van Halen, Rhoads, Vai, Satriani, Malmsteen etc.
I agree with you in that there is only one Ace
