KISS (Alive II) 1977
Gate-fold Interior - Stage Explosion
The Evolution Of KISS Booklet Insert
Rub-On Tattoo Insert
Alive II is a double LP with 3 sides dedicated to a "Live" concert recorded during the
Love Gun Tour. I say "Live" because just like
Alive!, a whole lot of sweetening went on during post production. Also, the songs themselves are taken from many different shows. Anyway, it's still a good listen. Personally I prefer
Alive! over
Alive II.
Fave Song:
Love Gun. <----- MVP
The 4th side is all new songs:
All American Man, Rockin' In The USA, Larger Than Life, Rocket Ride and
Any Way You Want It. Once again, the band felt it necessary to dupe the
KISS Army by telling us this was all new stuff from the 4 members. Turns out that
Ace only played on
Rocket Ride, while
Paul did everything on
Any Way You Want It. They secretly hired a session man by the name of
Bob Kulick to do the guitars for the remaining songs, who will also play an important role in the future regarding
KISS.
Insert trend continues with the
Evolution Of KISS Booklet insert as well as the
Rub-On Tattoo sheet. This was like Xmas...everyday for me.
The back cover with
Gene was so insane with all that blood when it came out. But I had no idea what wait in store for me when I opened the
gate-fold cover to reveal......
The EXPLOSION!!!!! Daaaaaaaaaaamn. It's still an amazing image to look at even today.
