brad1 Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 In 1976 I was 14 years old and discovered KISS. They are THE band that made me want to play rock and roll. Through Jr. High and High School I could not get enough of them. I became pretty much disinterested with them after Ace left. I still pull out the old albums and listen to them every once and a while. Yes the first 3 albums are great. But so are Rock and Roll Over, KISS Alive, Destroyer, KISS Alive II, and Love Gun. I like Gene's solo album a lot too. A lot of folks never could get past the makeup. I myself thought they were "stupid" and would not even listen to their music. I just happened to be over at someones house who loved them and played some for me. I looked at him and said, "this is KISS?". I went out and bought "KISS The Originals" (the first 3 albums in 1 package) the very next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve-1963 Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 The first album I heard was Destroyer. They toured here at the end of '80 after Dynasty was released (my last year of high school) and tickets were $14 Australian. A bunch of us went and had a great time - they put on a really good show. I still like playing their old stuff every once in a while too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookieman15061 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 My younger brother was/ is a huge KISS fan. I took him to his first KISS concert back in the late 70s and though their music never did anything for me, their concerts are fantastic. The original lineup put on a great show I'll give em that.

Searcy Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 They really were a great band. None of their early records sold well until Alive came out. I don't like everything they did but there's enough killer stuff from them to make me a fan. Just listen to this bass... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbreslauer Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 they cranked out some music back then, huh? from '73 to '78, 6 studio albums, two live albums, the 4 "solo" albums and the first compilation album (Double Platinum). IMO, everything you need to know about KISS is on those first 6 (!) studio records. "Rock and Roll Over" is awesome, listening to it right now.

Daryl M Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I was in my early teens in the mid 1970s and remember the adults I knew (parents, teachers, etc) just hated KISS. They said KISS's music represented evil. So, naturally, I loved the band. They were my first experience of 'fighting the man'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyK Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 They should have said Captain and Tenille, Donnie and Marie, and Sonny and Cher were evil. Boy you would have SHOWN THEM!, eh? Well Sonny and Chere WERE evil, anyways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Searcy Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 That's one of the things that made them great. If a rock band dosn't upset your mother they arn't a very good rock band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
