My Take
Bob Kulick embodies the kind of musician I deeply respect: the indispensable craftsman who serves the song rather than his own ego. To work convincingly with Kiss, W.A.S.P., Alice Cooper, Lou Reed, Meat Loaf, and Michael Bolton requires not just chops but adaptability and trust. Often overshadowed by his brother Bruce, the official Kiss guitarist, Bob built a quieter but profoundly versatile career as both player and producer. I value this brand of journeyman excellence enormously. His passing in 2020 closed the book on a Brooklyn rock lifer whose fingerprints sit, mostly uncredited, across decades of records.
