This is the era when KISS was in their prime. What a time to be alive! I was 12 years old and KISS was my favorite band. It was such an exciting time. Me and my best friend would fantasize about being in the band. I was Peter Criss and he was Paul Stanley. Music back then was pure and raw.

@@josephlinnell9855 influenced me like no other for sure. Saved me from permanently checking out. Also the concert I went to was the Destroyer tour brought back. They played the same songs, used the same equipment and even used or recreated the stage and the costumes . They also included songs from other albums though. Funny that in 2024, I discovered a Romanian band called Carla’s Dreams and they wear makeup. The songs they sing are much like that of Kiss. They have 8 songs in English and the rest are in Romanian. I was just as captivated by them as I was Kiss and still am. Music is a universal language. I look up the lyrics so I know what the songs are about. Btw, I lived,ate and breathed Kiss. Was disappointed after Peter and Ace left. I quit Kiss after that departure. I love the ORIGINAL line up and listen to the Old KISS all the time. It’s nice to know they were Everything to so many people.My videos and playlists are public on my channel. Feel free to drop in.

@Shawn- Bubble still intact. I've always known alot the tracks were dubbed except for Peter who had the only live tracks on the album. Regardless of the over dubs, it still captures the "live sound" and everyone followed with the formula in the 70's after KISS. Eddie Kramer produced the ultimate KISS sound which was used in Rock n Roll Over, for me it's the only studio album with the true KISS sound. Tracks were recorded live on a sound stage, except for Peter recording off stage somewhere, and the rest dubbed for the final mix in the studio, just like Alive.

It took almost 2 days to get all of my hearing back, they were so loud. Peter Criss did his long solo on 100,000 Years, with his drum riser going higher and higher towards the end of the song. Made a big impression on a high school kid.

Agreed with comments here: This is the quintessential KISS. They were a very tight and talented band. Their makeup and stage theatrics were something that people either "got" or simply did not "get it". If they didn't "get it" they dismissed the band as not being talented musicians. But they were very talented. Those of us who "got it" with KISS understood that the makeup, stage theatrics etc were all part of an entire package. KISS didn't want to just play music. They wanted their fans to be entertained in every possible way. And they made sure it was high energy. This video is great. Such a great entertaining band.

This live video recording, without any alleged studio overdubs, sounds as good, electric, and full on rock-'n'-roll as Alive I and Alive II!! Don't listen to everything you read! Playing live defines a band and Kiss have defined themselves infinitely!! You drive them wild, they drive you CRAZY!!

Sounds much better than Alive 2 but not as good as Alive! I’ve always thought that Alive 2 doesn’t sound that good. Shout It Out Loud in particular is way too fast and the twin leads in the intro sound bad. I do like the studio side with All American Man though.

This was awesome. Live at the Budokan in 1977 or 78. I first and only time I saw Kiss in 2019, End of the Road Tour. Only wished I had seen them in their hay days. I hope there are many more uploads will come out soon during their prime. I was 14 when I got their first album, Dressed to Kill, and it is on the Blue Casablanca label and I still have it . A rare record. Most of the Casablanca labels are tan. Now, I'm in my 60's and I still listen to them. Thanks for the Rockin' memories.

Saw them at the Philly Spectrum doing that tour, they were great. '77 or '78. I've met Ace a couple times, walked the streets of East Village NYC with him while drinking beers and a couple years later he was at The Whisky in LA when my band played there with Zakk Wylde. But KISS was great. One fun band for sure and always loved Aces playing.

In 1977 we were obsessed with KISS and I joined the KISS ARMY at 12. When they came to NZ in 1980 we nearly lost our minds. First big concert of my life, I was 14 and I was just stunned, amazed and had the greatest night. This line up was the best with Ace and Peter .

Same. Had all the albums. My school books were covered in the KISS logo. I used to draw all their faces all the time. I was 13 in 79 and on my birthday my mother made me a Kiss logo cake. I once counted 124 pictures and posters on my wall of Kiss. There was nothing else allowed except for Kristy McNichol. She was cute. Alive II was my favorite album.

Joey P I believe the first 5 Kiss albums were all classics. Just my opinion. Take care and peace. That duel guitar solo in "Detoit Rock City" is still one of my favorite Kiss solos. There are probably better ones, but that one has always stuck out to me and I never fail to play the "Air Guitar" whenever that comes on.

@@JeffKopis “Alive!” was a great album, but it wasn’t a studio album per se. “Sweet Pain” and “Great Expectations” ruined Destroyer for me. I think “Love Gun” was better than “Destroyer” but in my opinion there’s not one bad song on RARO and it’s recorded better except the drums sounded weak. If RARO was recorded like “Dressed to Kill” that would be the ultimate album.
