Ace Frehley Origins Vol.2 180g 45rpm 2LP (Blue & White Vinyl)

Ace Frehley, a 2014 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, continues his reflections on a lifetime in music with Origins Vol.2.

No stranger to cover versions throughout his musical history - having recorded, rebranded and repossessed such notable nuggets as "New York Groove", "Do Ya" and "I Wanna Go Back" over the course of his eight previous studio efforts - this new collection presents a thoughtful and exciting selection of songs that inspired and helped shape the legendary guitarist.

Foremost of importance to the original Spaceman is delivering an album his fans will enjoy, but one where every song also has a place in his life's jukebox. As the second volume focusing on his musical origins, Ace has also grown since Origins Vol.1 was released in April 2016. That album hit #23 on the Billboard Top- 200 charts becoming his 4th top-40 and second highest charting solo album - and there's no questioning Ace's productivity with this album being his fifth recorded work in a decade!

Ace chuckles, "Since I had one covers album under my belt, the process of doing Origins Vol.2 was easier because I had put together a formula, picking guest stars and so-on." The challenge for him was to put a suitable personal stamp on the material, and Origins Vol.2 is replete with special touches that both honor and embellish the material originally recorded by Led Zeppelin, Mountain, Deep Purple, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Cream, The Kinks, Humble Pie, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Paul Revere & The Raiders, The Animals and KISS.
