    Vinnie fascinating character and very talented. Can't deny the guy has superb sense for great melodies if you listen to That Time Of Year and all his other songs including stuff he wrote for others (Kiss, ...) He's an original...huge shame he couldn't get it together throughout his career especially in The Invasion what he always wanted in his life, his own band and being acknowledged and respected. Big loss and waste actually..

    I saw a pre-fame Vinnie in a store on 48th. St. Pick up a random like 60's L.P plug in a random vintage amp, turn it to 11 and casually start playing "truth" era Beck type licks like he was Jeff's secret weapon like it was nothing, little faint smile (literally concert level volume)in this tiny space. My buddy was the local hot shot,(very good rock player) our jaws were on floor, we walked out of the there like "who the fuck is this guy?'" a year or two later kiss gets new player. "That's that fucking guy from NY that time. Vinnie's playing was absolutely SHOCKING at that time.

    "That Time of Year" is a really beautiful song. Vinnie wrote a bunch of those. "Love Kills" is another one. Kiss treated him like shit. Vinnie himself then treated his own band members like shit. People treat each other badly. It seemingly never ends. Human nature is flawed like that.

    I wonder if Vinnie was far too accommodating with KISS, which made him an easy target for being jerked around. He probably should've politely made his exit, and said "I'm getting on with my life, call me when you're serious." Being too nice does not get you treated well. Just makes you a target for opportunists.

    There’s a billion great guitar players on this planet. I’ve met 15 year old kids that could play as good as any player I’ve ever known. I quit idolizing these guys because they are not worthy of idolizing if they are crazy ego freak assholes. I’ve met and been around guys like Paul Gilbert and Guthrie Govan and they can play Vinnie under the table and they are nothing but cool, laid back, and very humble and grateful for every bit of success they have had! Don’t idolize some asswipe that played in a band like Kiss, idolize someone worth giving your respect and money to!

    If this was from 1988, Vinnie talks about the tour ending in Phoenix. It never made it that far. The bands last show was in August in L.A. I never knew until last year that the show I saw them, at on that tour, at the Omni in Oakland would be the next to the last show the band did. It would have been great to see them do at least a couple more albums at the time. One good thing did come out of that band and that was Slaughter with Mark and Dana. Now that Vinnie is back on the scene, it will be interesting to see what he does. He is a talented musician so I hope he puts something cool together...

    Wow...the amount of disrespect shown to Vinnie on this board is insane. The guy comes across as calm, cool, and professional. Vinnie is a generational talent on guitar, and actually had his hands recorded for posterity while playing. He has a unique “double-picking” banjo style that is very unique. Give him the credit he deserves for rescuing Kiss from themselves too....Kiss STILL plays songs from the VV era, which speaks volumes about the quality of the songs he created.

    Respect is something you have to earn and if you look at what Vinnie has done over the years it's not that big a surprise that people have little respect for him. - A Kiss show is a tightly rehearsed event, it HAS to be. So elongating his solos to ridiculous lengths so they were jeopardizing the Timing of those said shows is NOT going to make you any friends with both the band and the crew who are in charge of setting off the pyro and other special effects which are Kiss' bread and butter. - Dana Strum, in addition of being VVI's bass player , was the VVI's behind the scenes guy, he arranged the Contract with Chrysalis records, got Bobby Rock in the band and over saw the recording of that first album. Not nearly three years later in the interview for Kerrang magazine, Vinnie described Dana as being "A Hanger on who doesn't even play an instrument!" - Bobby Rock described recording the drum tracks for the fist VVI album as sheer hell, go here to read why. bobbyrock.wordpress.com/2016/01/08/welcome-to-hell-recording-drums-for-the-first-vinnie-vincent-invasion-album-part-1/ - When he popped up in 1996 at Kiss conventions, he was talking about a CD box set which would have rare outtakes and demos, the fans eagerly ordered theirs in advance. Vinnie took their money and ran with it. To this day, there never has been any box set and it won't be coming out anytime soon. - Around ten years ago Vinnie was arrested for domestic abuse and the police found several dead dogs on his property. - When he emerged at that convention in Nashville that wanted a Vinnie Vincent Invasion reunion concert. They didn't have much money, but they had volunteers, so the deal is, he gets 100% of the door, 100% of the merch and 100% of the VIP packages, but no money up front. He waited until he thought it was too late to cancel and then asked for a guarantee. They thought: 'okay, he hasn't changed, and if we say yes to this, there will be more nonsense', and then they cancelled. - In recent interviews he states that Mark Slaughter ruined the VVI, hold on, this is the guy who enabled the VVI to go on tour in the first place and without Mark, that fabled second album wouldn't have been recorded. Why should I show respect to such a complete and utter ASSHOLE?

I honestly don't understand how his fans can go on defending him knowing what they know: It's one thing to enjoy the music he made a long time ago, it's another thing to excuse acts of theft, assault, animal cruelty, and narcissism.

Despite all that went on with Gene & Paul, (which i don't feel is my place to judge, either way), Vinnie comes across as intelligent and down to earth. His talent as a musician/songwriter/guitarist is unquestionable - even Gene still gives him credit for his talent, to this day. It's a shame it all worked out the way it did.

    The only issue i see is that there seems to be a misconception that Vinnie singlehandedly saved KISS from making more albums like Dynasty, Unmasked, and The Elder. Paul and Gene came to the realization on their own that they needed to make drastic changes to their sound and fast, and Vinnie was the right guy at the right time. Creatures and Lick It Up would have still happened, but they probably wouldn't have been as good and Lick It Up might have ended up being the last KISS album. Taking off the makeup wasn't enough to revive interest in KISS, it simply drew attention to the album, which Vinnie was a big part of both as a guitar player and songwriter. They say he was terrible, and yet they tried to continue on in that style for Animalize and Asylum. They began to slowly go downhill again starting with Crazy Nights, which was a lot more pop-sounding and nowhere near as good as All Systems Go.

His hatred of Mark Slaughter is a bit stupid after all these years and his insults come off as jealousy imo . Slaughter the band was a better band overall and their run was much longer then VVI band was . So stop insulting Marks vocal abilities he did help with VVI success as much as Vin's playing ...

    When Vinnie chose to let Mark and Dana go and then heard they would continue making music without him, i think he thought they would fail. Seeing them succeed probably drove him into denial and resulted in him coming up with the story of how Mark and Dana went behind his back and stole his record deal. The reason their label let Vinnie go is because he burned through the entire recording budget doing dozens of takes and re-recordings (this was also the reason his third album never materialized).

I thought he was alright. Even though he was no Ace Frehley on guitar. Ace had feel. Vinnie was all flash. But he was ok on guitar that night. I think people are a little hard on him after all these decades. I never got to see Kiss with Bruce or Tommy. But from the videos, Bruce was good. Tommy? I'm sure he's a good player but....Remember this people. Nobody played Ace licks like Ace. Just put on the first three albums again. frankny65yroldwhitekid rockfan

    Some people say that Yngwie's playing has no soul, which I tend to disagree with personally, but either way, Vinnie here, has him beat, hands down. He has to be the # 1, most soulless metal guitar player my ears have ever heard, and I've heard a lot. The guy is not even a great shredder, period. Just picks at a thousand miles per hour, hitting notes everywhere. I can understand why Mark and Dana got the hell away from the guy. Don't know exactly how long this solo was, but if it was 50 seconds, that was 45 seconds too long. Don't get me wrong, the SONGS are good, but the soloing....Anything Tim Kelly or Jeff Blando has played for the Slaughter band, is MILES better than anything I've heard from this girl.... I mean, guy...er, whatever.

However, Vinnie Vincent was a "try to play fast as you can" type of guy. You can hear that he was even sloppy on most of his solos, and with no "meaning". Don't get me wrong... he plays guitar very well and has great songs, but he wasn't in the "reign of shredders" as others in the eighties (Yngwie, Gilbert, Becker, Macalpine, Vinnie Moore, etc.)-
