ACE FREHLY
Ace’s solo album is widely considered the best of the KISS solo LP’s. (well, John Denver’s sappy music was better than the other three solo KISS LP’s!)
You have to give Ace credit for really letting his talent shine through. This looks like a project he spent a …

I received my Aria Ocarina from St. Louis Ocarina (STL) in 2014 and found it difficult (at first) to play. While the ocarina is an incredibly easy instrument to learn to play, it can be a challenge to play well, and in the beginning, the notes played so sharp …
