Long before session guitarist and composer Gene Moore met Ace Frehley, the lead guitarist for the rock band Kiss was Gene's idol.  At 14, Gene was just learning guitar by listening to Ace Frehley's guitar licks on some of those iconic Kiss songs of the 70's.  Fast forward about 15 years and, as fate would have it, Moore was hired for a recording session and Ace Frehley was helping produce the project.  The two met and Ace complimented Gene on his playing. The rock idol invited the long time fan to the house.  The two jammed a bit and Frehley asked Gene if he wanted to write together and gave Moore a cassette with some rough sketches of song ideas.  Gene took a raw eight-measure riff he heard on that cassette and turned it into the hit song "Insane".  

A few days after Gene created the song,  laid all the tracks down including vocals and song structure, the two reviewed the song back at Frehley's house.  That was the last Gene heard of the song, or from Ace,  until a couple of years later, at 3 a.m. when MTV was playing Ace Frehley's new music video release, entitled "Insane".   But the story doesn't end there.....
