@stereogum: Ace Frehley, the iconic original guitarist for @KISS has died, his family confirms. Frehley’s Spaceman persona was a crucial part of the KISS mystique during the band’s peak years, and his 1978 cover of Hello’s disco hit “New York Groove” is easily the best and biggest song from any of KISS members’ solo endeavors. Last week his remaining 2025 tour dates were canceled following a fall in his studio that resulted in a brain injury. Frehley was 74.
