Re: What do famous guitar players think about Vinnie and his style?
He is very precise and clean when he plays. He has amazing feel, attack and a great sense of melody. His is extremely technical in his playing. His whammy techniques, chicken picking and phrasing are absolutely incredible. I can remember being angered in the past by ignorant people making statements...

Re: Heart Of Chrome
Has Vinnie ever commented on what he didn't like about the final version ? Also , did Vinnie leave the Revenge sessions due to the contract or because he had prior commitments ? Seems like KISS would of paid expenses to have him help write the whole album. From what I remember of the time I was wit...

Re: JSS & Vinnie Vincent - FORBIDDEN (remastered)
To be honest, I find him at his best when the vocals demand a manly growl to them. I don't think that his voice lends itself well to subtleties. He is very pitchy when SINGING melodically compared to growling melodically. Make sense? I do enjoy The Boogie Knights though. Right up my alley. Very fun...
