Re: Latest post from Vinnie Vincent
Ozzy was never as big as Kiss. He was never marketed to commercial middle school market. Glam Rock died a death ansd all that went with it. Kiss were going to die just because all giant bands or singers that revolve around 'fads' die off. Kiss fan base when they turned to 80s rock was a different f...

Vinnie can't stop Ace releasing it, thats not possoble. the mechanical license is law and I am sure he didn't want him not to put it out anyway.
