When I was 11 I listened to Kiss Alive! for the first time.  It was mind blowing.  I felt like I was at a Kiss concert, in my mind I visualized what was going on the stage.  Anyway the point here is Black Diamond.  On the Alive album it is amazing.  The slow intro building into Paul yelling hit it.  Peter's raspy voice and Ace's solo.  After hearing that song I knew 3 things.
One, Kiss was the greatest band in the world.
Two, I had to be involved with music, more than just listening to it.
Three, I had to play guitar. 
Now 37 years later, yeah i'm old, nothing has changed with numbers 2 and 3.  As far as number 1, well I still love Kiss but .....
Anyway, gotta run and play my guitar
