You guys are all crazy, if you want some good raw kick ass rock n' roll, you need KISS' first album, and Hotter than Hell.
You don't have to be the best musician to write great songs. This has been proven for many, many moons. KISS aren't the greatest musicians, and even they admit that, even Ace has said that if he knew he was going to influance so many guitarists, he probably would have practiced more, lol, but it wasn't always JUST about the show, especially to all the members.
It is on the later 70's KISS albums that so much studio trickery and studio musicians came in from time to time. This was partly because of Gene's power trip, and partly because of Ace and Peters addictions. I think people would be surprised at how often this has happened to bands over the years. KISS just get shit because of their big stage production.
And in Ace's defense, he gets a lot of shit, but you know what, when they did their solo albums, his was the only one worth a shit, and he wrote a lot of the really great early KISS songs.
I find it really funny when people jump to conclusions, when they really don't know much about a band.
MM4..not sure...I ordered so much crap to be sent to multiple addresses, I'm not sure how it broke down in cost.
TCM Hitchhiker: Didn't mean to strike a nerve...you made a very nice counter argument that I would agree with 100%. Now can I come out of the corner?
You have to be carefull with TCM and PORTHOS.....two die hard KISS fans [img]wink.gif[/img]
lol, Skull, I didn't mean to sound like a dick, and it wasn't directed at just you. It was more of a general statement, because things like that have been said for years. It doesn't bug me if someone doesn't like KISS, to each is own, but it does get on my nerves when people are so quick to discount them.

RUN MM4!! PUMP THOSE CRAZY LEGS!
I don't really care how good they are as musician.
I don't really care either if people don't like em. i enjoy Kiss music. It's not artsy but it is entertaining.
Like Paul Stanly said once. KISS is like Burger King. And I like Burger King to a certain extend. He also said that if he had to paint the Chappel Sisteen he would have done it with a roll [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
I also have a lot of respect for many of Gene Simmons way of seeing life. Not everything but things like I don't want to be like Mama Cass,Jimi Hendrix or Jim Morrisson. If beeing dead is cool than I ain't cool. And I don't care.
ALIVE 1, 2 and 3 have all you need if you want to buy 3 cd.
If not I guess ALIVE 1 is the best one.
If I ain't wrong, Kiss hasn't been inducted into the RNR Hall of fame yet. If KISS isn't rock N Roll what is...
