Former KISS guitarist Mark St. John...RIP

I just found out that former KISS guitarist Mark. St. John died today of a cerebral hemorrage. Mark was only in the band for the recording of Animalize and for a few concerts (3 to be exact) at the beginning of the Animalize tour.

T0 this day Animalize is one of my favorite KISS albums and was the KISS album I probably listened to most when I was growing up. He is featured prominently in the Heaven's On Fire video.

This is the second member of KISS to pass, and although he was a very small part of KISStory it isn't easy to see one of my childhood heroes disappear.

Sad to report that Mark Norton aka Mark St. John, KISS' lead guitarist on Animalize, passed away this morning of a cerebral hemorrhage. Mark was 51 years old.

KISS remembers Mark for his contributions and sends their condolences and deepest sympathies to his family and friends.
