Front Cover

Spacewalk - A Salute To Ace Frehley is a tribute album by some well known faces in the music biz. This is another time were posting the track list is warranted to see who performs what.

1. Marty Friedman - Deuce

2. Gilby Clarke - Shock Me

3. Scott Ian - Rip It Out

4. Jeff Watson & Ron Young - Hard Luck Woman

5. Dave "Snake" Sabo - Snowblind

6. Sebastian Bach - Rock Bottom

7. Tracii Guns - Parasite

8. John Norum - Cold Gin

9. Bruce Bouillet - New York Groove

10. Dimebag Darrell - Fractured Mirror

The entire album is pretty good performance wise. They are all pretty faithful to the original songs with only a slight variations on a couple of them. I find this Tribute much more to my liking than I do with the one done for KISS. The head scratcher for this album is why the hell is Hard Luck Woman on here?  It's not an Ace Frehley song. It was written by Paul Stanley and sung by Peter Criss on Rock And Roll Over. Oh well....

Fave Songs: All of 'em. But Co-MVP goes to both Bruce Bouillet's version of New York Groove and Dimebag Darrell's version of Fractured Mirror

Album cover is ok, but it comes off as pretty amateurish and low rent. A rush job perhaps?

Rating: 4 Stars out of 5
