Ace's debut lead vocal on a KISS album. I've never been much of a fan of the Ace-man's vocval talents be the man sure can write a riff. This ranks as one of the coolest riffs ever. The half-step bend into the G5 is downright brilliant and gives the riff a certain unstable quality that certianly matches Ace's moving around onstage. The solo is one of Ace's best in my opinion. It shows him at the top of his form. Learn it, it's great fun to play. Key: / = slide up \ = slide down b = bend (whole step) b^ = bend (1/2 step) b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps) pb = pre-bend r = release-bend t = tap with righthand finger h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = Vibrato
