Mark St. John Dead

Post by Duane »

Mark St. John who was one of the unlucky fellows in the history of Kiss died yesterday. He only played two live gigs with Kiss (1 complete and one half if I remember correctly). Check out Animalize...he was a really good guitar player, sad to see another Kiss alumni gone.

I think the question is now, how/will Gene exploit this?
Release the Animalize Mark St.John special edition with bonus Gene demos?

Wouldn't be surprised.

I'm sure Gene would spin it to make money. He hardly mentioned Eric Carr in his one book and Carr was in the band for what like eleven years? Oh well I liked "Animalize" St John did a good job on there.

That's true about Eric Carr. I have the 'Kiss and Make Up' book and Gene barely touches on Eric's illness and death. He seemed more concerned that they had to record Revenge.

It took Bruce Kulick to release and Eric CD - Rockology.

I haven't heard Animalize.

'Kiss and Make Up' is so factually incorrect it's scary......Gene should let someone else write his stuff for him other than his giant ego...othe than that the book isn't bad.

I have heard that there are many mistakes in that book.
I don't think Gene really cares about integrity as long as the book sells. And it did.
