The Story of Rock and Roll: S5E42 BD - Ace Frehley Tribute

This is just a short little tribute that I did on the Story of Rock and Roll radio show, Turbo Edition which runs from Fridays between 6pm and 7pm on Rebel Rock Radio and Blldogs Radio. Ace Frehley passed away last night, and he changed my world. Without Ace Frehley, I don't know if I'd ever have picked up a guitar, so this was a little ad hoc tribute to the man. It was from the heart and off the cuff.  The Story of Rock and Roll.

S8E37 went out live from the TSORR Studio on Myoli Beach on 11 September 2025 at 19h00 on Rebel Rock Radio.  This was a deeply emotional rollercoaster. The show is dedicated to several people who died this week through a combination of tragic criminality, psychopathy, madness, intolerance, and corruption. Charlie Kirk was assassinated for free speech and debating people, Bouwer Van Niekerk, for being a liquidations attorney who got too close to a corrupt crime mafia linked to people in the South African government, and Iryna Zarutska, a Ukrainian refugee, was stabbed to death by a racist psychopath on a train in North Carolina.  Paris is on fire with migrants and police in running battles.  In Britain, people who are abused by their own government and jailed for Facebook posts and hurty words, while the same government allows children to be raped by grooming gangs, are preparing for the United Kingdom Free Speech Festival on Saturday, 13th September in London.  And if that wasn't enough, it was the anniversary of 9/11. It’s been 24 years since that awful tragedy, and right now it just feels like the whole world is going up in flames. The Running Order of Artists Featured:  The Pretty Reckless, Accept, Texas Hippie Coalition, ACDC, Judas Priest, Alter Bridge, Five Finger Death Punch, Adrenaline Mob, Rainbow, SStorace, Sham69, Stiff Little Fingers, Disturbed, Helloween, Led Zeppelin, Soundgarden, Aerosmith, Megadeth, Kid Rock, Mötley Crüe, Johnny Cash, Pink Floyd, The Clash, Def Leppard, Iron Maiden, Van Halen, Sixx AM, Tygers of Pan Tang, Bruce Springsteen, David Bowie, Dream Theater, Dave Hause.The Story of Rock and Roll.
