Biografie van de kunstenaar Vinnie Vincent Invasion

Vincent John Cusano Born August 6 1952 Better Known By His Stage Name Vinnie Vincent Is An American Guitarist. He Is A Former Member Of The Rock Band Kiss From 1982 Until Mid-1984 During The Band's Transition Out Of Their 1973–1983 Makeup Period. Vincent Was The Last Member To Wear A Unique Makeup/costume Configuration As The Character Of The Ankh Warrior A Design Created By Paul Stanley Until He And The Band Were First Shown Without The Makeup During An Interview On MTV In September 1983. He Founded His Own Band Vinnie Vincent Invasion Which Had Minor Hits. Vinnie Vincent Invasion Was A Critically Acclaimed Band Created By Guitarist And Songwriter Vinnie Vincent Upon His Split With Seminal Hard Rock Group Kiss. The Group Incorporated An Outrageous Glam Image To Go Along With Their Scorching Blend Of Sleazy Heavy Metal. Guitarist Vinnie Vincent Had Replaced Ace Frehley In Kiss And He Helped The Band Return To The Spotlight With Their 'Lick It Up' Album. But By 1985 Vincent Had Left The Band And Decided To Be The Star Writing Music For A Band That Showcased Him. He Recorded Some Demos With One Time Journey Front-Man Robert Fleischman A Singer He Had Worked With In Warrior Prior To His Stint In Kiss. Chrysalis Records Loved What They Heard And Signed The Invasion To An Eight Album $4 Million Dollar Contract. So Along With Bassist Dana Strum And Drummer Bob Rock They Started Recording The Debut Album. The Self-Titled Album "Vinnie Vincent Invasion" Was An Instant Success As It Climbed Into The Billboard Top 100. However Fleischman Refused To Adopt The Outrageous Glam Metal Image And He Showed No Desire To Tour. The Invasion Was Forced To Find A New Vocalist And They Decided On Mark Slaughter. But There Was Tension Between Vincent And Slaughter From Day One Which Intensified Even More When New Record Label Management Wanted Slaughter To Become The Focal Point Of The Group. The Follow-Up Album All Systems Go 1988 Had Some Success But Internal Turmoil Killed The Band In Late 1988 At The End Of Their One-Month Tour. Vincent Recorded A Third Invasion Album With Fleischman But It Never Saw The Light Of Day And The Guitarist Has Remained Out Of The Limelight And Recorded Sporadically Ever Since. Rock Went On To Further Fame With Nelson While Slaughter And Strum Formed Slaughter And Reached Platinum Success. In 1996 Vincent Released A Solo EP From The Studio Sessions He Did In 1990 Some Say 1989–91 Called 'Euphoria' Once Again With Robert Fleischman On Vocals. Vincent As Well As Playing All The Guitars Played Bass And Did The Drum Programming Under The Guise Of "V. Meister".
