Artist : Kiss Country : USA Release : The Casablanca Singles 1974-1982 Year : 2012 Genre : Hard Rock File Type : mp3 320 Info:
Kiss were half-heavy metal band, half-circus act in their heyday, a
time known as their "golden age" amongst fans, "the make-up era" to the
rest the world, or 1974-1982 if you're being generous by a couple years
on either end. Those happen to be the years the group were signed to
Neil Bogart's label Casablanca Records, a successful '70s hypemachine
that found success at the far ends of the pop spectrum with comic book
heavy metal (Kiss) and disco (the Village People, Donna Summer, Lipps
Inc., Irene Cara, and a truckload of producer-based acts). The
Casablanca Singles: 1974-1982 collects all 29 singles Kiss released on
Bogart's label, making them available on vinyl 7" or CD singles with
picture sleeves from around the world faithfully reproduced (which in
the case of 1974's "Nothin' to Lose" b/w "Love Theme from Kiss" means
all-white promo packaging). Career-defining A-sides like "Rock and Roll
All Nite," "Detroit Rock City," "Beth," "New York Groove" (officially an
Ace Frehley track, but singles from all four of their 1978 solo albums
are included), and even the disco-flavored "I Was Made for Loving You"
are all on the track list thanks to the A-sides, which are also
responsible for lesser-known gems like "Rocket Ride" and "C'mon and Love
Me." The B-sides vary wildly as "Shock Me" sits on the back of
"Christine Sixteen" like a bonus prize, while the great heavy metal
rocker "Sweet Pain" is here thanks to the Japanese single of "Shout It
Out Loud," but there's also the awkward and not-so-sexy "She's So
European" and redundancy as well, with "Rock and Roll All Nite" showing
up as a B-side twice, and an A-side once.

Kiss Alive! 1975–2000 is a collection of live recordings from American
hard rock band Kiss. It was released by Universal Music on November 21,
2006. The Millennium Concert (recorded on December 31, 1999 at BC Place
Stadium in Vancouver, Canada) was originally to be released as Alive IV
in 2000 but because Kiss' parent label Mercury was swallowed by the
Universal/Vivendi merger, Alive IV was shelved.
Universal later
agreed to Kiss using Mercury to release what would become The Millennium
Concert as Alive IV, but then it was shelved indefinitely and the band
would release the Symphony: Alive IV album released on Kiss
Records/Sanctuary Records in 2003. The 72-page booklet that comes with
the set mistakenly credits songwriting for "Cold Gin" to Paul Stanley
instead of Ace Frehley.

You're All That I WantArtist : Kiss Country : USA Release : Unmasked [Remastered] Year : 1980 Genre : Hard Rock File Type : mp3 320 Info:
Despite the lying title – the group would keep their makeup on for
another two years – and the internal convulsions tearing through the
group – Peter Criss appears on the cover, but plays nothing on the
record, the drums being handled by long-time session man Anton Fig -
Unmasked is an undeniably strong set of hard rock tunes, that recover
the spark so sorely lacking from the group’s previous effort, Dynasty.
Where that album was KISS’s attempt at “going disco”, this one can be
construed as their attempt at “going pop”. Most of the songs have
undeniably radio-friendly leanings, but who cares when they’re this
good!? The opening with Is That You tells the tale, being the group’s
best song in at least three years, if not four. The fact that the
following songs fail to follow suit is disappointing at first, but
repeat listens bring out the inherent qualities in most of them.
