"No Regrets", a long overdue book review

Meant to write this last year, but life kept getting in the way, and I forgot. As I've said before, nobody could describe me as an avid reader.  I read 3 books in 2011, and this was the last one. Just like the previous 2 books, I'm relieved that the author lived to write this memoir. I've been a HUGE Kiss fan since 1975, the first time I heard "Rock n Roll all Nite". It was on one of those K-Tell compilations, hidden among the AM pop drivel that we were bombarded with in the mid 70's. The power chords at the beginning of the song were like NOTHING this 13 year old had heard before. I was hooked, and a life long obsession began. I love all eras of Kisstory, but the Ace Frehley eras are my favorite. This book allows us to take a Rocket Ride with the Space Man, through the highs and lows of the hottest band in the world, KISS!
