See? You are redeemable! LOL!!

Frehley is my all-time favorite guitarist. Has been since 1974, and likely
always will be. He has the most unbelievable vibrato, and just plain miles
and miles of attitude & personality in his playing. As Nugent once said
"Only Ace Frehley would have the balls to make the first half of a solo one
note repeated 17 times, and only Ace Frehley could make it work". LOL. After
Ace comes Brain May whose vibrato is matched only by his tone. One of the
things that first drew me into Ty's playing was the bits of Ace I heard in
his playing, but when I tried telling that to other folks that were digging
Ty, they argued it and blew it off as me wanting to hear Ace in his playing
because there was none in it. Needless to say, when I read an interview with
Ty a few years ago where he cited Ace and May as two of his biggest
influences and heroes I felt totally vindicated<g>. Even more when having
said it, the interviewer (Guitar Magazine maybe?) seemed shocked, and said
that he never would have guessed as he heard no Ace in Ty's playing at all,
and Ty seemed surprised and proceeded to tell him so. LOL.
