Former FREHLEY'S COMET Member Releases Acoustic Re-Recording Of 'Time Ain't Running Out'

December 23, 2008

Former FREHLEY'S COMET member Tod Howarth has uploaded an acoustic re-recording of the classic FREHLEY'S COMET song "Time Ain't Running Out" on his MySpace page. He says, "I hope that you FREHLEY'S COMET fans enjoy it; it was done for you, with the idea coming from friend/fan Brian Sword. He has had many that I will utilize this coming year."

Tod continued, "I will be back to work on the heavy rock CD after the New Year, as this time of the season is busy for most everyone. I've mentioned it before but can't help to say it again — I have many responsibilities besides music so it's taking me a painfully long time to get the new CD done."

FREHLEY'S COMET recorded three albums, produced four videos before the lineup dissolved and Ace Frehley moved on to his solo effort. Tod continued writing and pursuing a solo record deal and received one from Gene Simmons in 1990. However this was short-lived because of the refreshing sounds of "grunge." Tod liked this new sound but also knew it was to change the face of music, and the direction of his career. After rejoining CHEAP TRICK in 1990, he helped support the continuing "Lap of Luxury" tour with the hit "The Flame". Tod played with CHEAP TRICK consistently until 1997 whereupon he went back at work on solo material. Since 2000 he has played with CHEAP TRICK in special live and TV shows and handled the keys, and backing vocals on the "Silver" DVD. In 2008 he traveled to Japan with CHEAP TRICK to once again handle the keys and vocals for the band's 30th-year anniversary concert, "Live at Budokan".
