### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great book on balance
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2020*

I couldn't put the book down, read it straight through. I would have liked the book to talk more about the music, the writing process etc, some of Gene's greatest songs were not even mentioned in the book. The negative stuff about Ace and Peter could have been abbreviated a bit. But on balance a fantastic book by a real man who says what he feels and lives his life how he wants, not how society wants. He doesn't cower to anybody. I do not agree with all his opinions, nor directions he took the band, but his arguments for his ways are tremendous, intelligent as hell, brave and much respected by me. We need more people with backbone like Gene Simmons today, they are sadly in very short supply.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars

    Gene is brilliant but......
  

*by H***K on Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2021*

....as a bass player and musician, I would have loved to have read something / ANYTHING about his bass playing; what made him choose that instrument, his training, teachers (I know Carol Kaye was one of them), equipment choices, practice habits, etc.  But Gene probably feels all that is secondary to his business talents which he is most proud of (beside his cocksmanship) have obviously made the band a huge financial success.I remember distinctly something he said on an episode of his TV show, "I can make money anywhere".  God knows he did it with a band who's musical talents (and sorry if I offend any KISS fans here) were no better the average bar band.  Gene is a marketing and merchandising genius.What's a little sad is the story of Peter and Ace.  I'm sure they have their side, but I don't think Gene would fabricate anything.  I just could have done with a little less of his.  A lot of what went on, especially in later years, reminds me of the Eagles and the autonomy of Henley and Frey.  At the end of the day (and often the band) there are those who's contributions stand out as the keys to success....either the songwriting or business chops, aside from the work put in.It's an entertaining read and I will in time probably buy another of Gene's publishings.
