Frehley's Comet is the first solo release from Ace Frehley, co-founder and former lead guitarist of KISS. It was the first album Frehley released after leaving KISS in 1982. Frehley's band adopted the name Frehley's Comet shortly after the album's release. Anton Fig, who played drums on the album, also performed on Frehley's 1978 KISS solo album, as well as KISS's Dynasty and Unmasked albums.
"Into the Night" was a minor hit for Frehley, reaching #27 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks chart in 1987. The song was written by Russ Ballard, who also composed Frehley's Top 20 single "New York Groove."
