No. VV never was a good fit for the band. I have the first VVI album and it sucks! Pure crap.... Thanks to a large extent to Robert Fleischman's horrible voice as well.
Bruce Kulick's playing is very generic to me. He doesn't have a lot of charisma or personality, but he brought a lot of stability and musical experience to the band. He did a very good job overall, and was not necessarily encouraged to come out of his shell as an artist.
At this stage of their career, KISS had become Stanley & Simmons, although Simmons has lost interest in the band. This had become Stanley's vision and Vinnie needed to musically fit, which he didn't. He thought he could be bigger on his own.... well he got a pretty clear answer, hasn't he?
