Metal Sludge’s Top 11 Flying V Guitarists of All-Time!

2. Vinnie Vincent of Vinnie Vincent Invasion Vinnie Vincent is one of the worlds most well known guitar players. Oddly, in many ways it is for a lof of the wrong reasons. First he got to join KISS. Which many guys would cut off their balls for. Secondly he got booted from KISS the same. And Vinnie has sued, and been sued by the band (he was once part of) more times than most people have kids. Or dogs. Or dead dogs. You may be asking, who has dead dogs? Well, ask Vinnie. Last year he was arrested and the cops found boxes of dead dogs in his kitchen. Read about that craziness HERE. But let's move on.

Vinnie Vinncent has a V in his first and last name and he's one of the world's most famous guitarists, who used a Flying V. He was also one of the very first to have a 'concorde' issue Flying V behind our #1. Vinnie shows off his skills, and his cool custom V in his solo bands debut hit single "Boyz Are Gonna Rock" Turn it up, and hide the dogs!

8) 8) 8) 8) This is humorous and cool:
An old friend of mine that I haven't spoken to in a long time ,just sent this article to me because he remembered how much I love Vinnie Vincent.
At least I'm not considered a HATER by him. :D

Funny how Randy died at 25 and yet released more material than Vinnie.

My guess,
Randy: QR. 1 & 2 + 15 or so bootlegs of demos, some of them poo! Not that a lot of the official QR stuff is stellar
either!
Ozzy. Blizzard & Diary + the two B sides, You've Got it All & You Looking at Me Looking at You. No known
bootlegs. (Bob Daisley.........one day!)

Vinnie: Pre KISS. Is it 3 or 4 albums + guest spots?
KISS. 95% of LIU and 80% of CotN (I'll give credit to Vinnie here. He says he played 90% of the leads on
CotN and while he may not have played every solo, I'll bet my leftie he played a lot of the fills)!
VVI. Two great albums + Mark vocal on Shoot Ya
VV. GFH + Warrior demos + the Soto demos
VV & shramiac. Shredder vs The Slopmaster Op.1


Ok I made one up! Sorry! Vinnie never played on LIU!! :P :P :P

Let's go with OFFICIAL RELEASES where they were a part of the talent. No demos or private pressings...


Randy- QR 1&2 Japan release
- Ozzy- Blizzard & Diary + Tribute


Vinnie- Treasure
- Kiss- COTN & LIU
-VVI -Debut & ASG

( I am not counting the EP/Euphoria simply because it was very underground and difficult to acquire. To me, it would be like counting the box set)

Give or take guest spots,repackages, compilations,etc... It boils down to 5 albums each for me

How about we go with Vinnie's discography from KISS FAQ:

http://www.kissfaq.com/vinnie/vinnie.html


And while the EP might have been harder to find, you could find Euphoria. Amazon had the cd version starting about 10 years ago or so and its been available as a digital download on Amazon and iTunes for years.

Of course, if you want to buy Speedball Jamm better to get it on Amazon for .99 as opposed to iTunes for $9.99.

Great research everyone. Nevertheless, if Randy had lived he would most likely have made many more albums.
