As a 2014 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Ace Frehley continues his reflections on a lifetime in music with "Origins, Vol. 2." No stranger to cover versions throughout his musical history — having recorded, rebranded and repossessed such notable nuggets as "New York Groove," "Do Ya" and "I Wanna Go Back" over the course of his eight previous studio efforts — this new collection presents a thoughtful and exciting selection of songs that inspired and helped shape the legendary guitarist. Foremost of importance to the original Spaceman is delivering an album his fans will enjoy, but one where every song also has a place in his life's jukebox. As the second volume focusing on his musical origins; Ace has also grown since "Origins, Vol. 1" was released in April 2016. That album hit #23 on the Billboard Top-200 charts becoming his 4th top-40 and second highest charting solo album — and there's no questioning Ace's productivity with this album being his fifth recorded work in a decade! Ace chuckles, "Since I had one covers album under my belt, the process of doing 'Origins, Vol. 2' was easier because I had put together a formula, picking guest stars and so-on." The challenge for him was to put a suitable personal stamp on the material, and "Origins, Vol. 2" is replete with special touches that both honor and embellish the material; including special guest appearances from Robin Zander (of Cheap Trick); John 5 (Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson, David Lee Roth); Bruce Kulick (KISS, Meat Loaf); Lita Ford (The Runaways). Ace Frehley's "Origins, Vol. 2" is a well thought out, but not over-thought, album. For Ace, keeping things organic is an important part of crafting an album's atmosphere: "I just let it happen. Things evolve when I start doing these records and I try not to plan too much ahead. I like spontaneity. I like coming up with ideas off the top of my head. It's the same way I write guitar solos. When things are fresh and spontaneous, they always come out better for the listener." Ace Frehley gets the last word with a direct message to his fans: "I'm happy with the end result and I hope the fans like it as well."
