@cjprice1100 Back when KISS first came out, religious fanatics thought it was an acronym for: Knights In Satan's Service. Gotta give it to them for creativity.
@Roachenator Ace Frehley is my favorite guitarist. And KISS is my favorite band. But they definitely do not owe everything to Ace. He might of wrote 3 songs that EVERYONE KNOWS, New York Groove, Shock Me, and Cold Gin. Plus, he could not sing worth shit but still wouldn't be a great band without him.
@CameronMusicMan you sir are retarded. New York Groove wasn't written by Ace, It was a cover. And Ace wrote the following songs for KISS, Cold Gin, Shock Me, Strange Ways, Parasite, All the songs on "Ace Frehley" with the exception of New York Groove, Talk To Me, Two Sides of The Coin, Get Away, Co-wrote Comin' home and C'mon and Love Me with Paul, Hard Times, Torpedo Girl ,Into The Void, and others I can't think of at them moment. Ace Didn't write everything but did contribute alot.
Street level magic. From the begginings. The earliest tracks are some of my faves. A monster Rock N' Roll machine being created right here. My god these guys were as big an influence and part of my childhood and early teens as hockey cards, comicbooks and PLAYBOY magazine. LOL. I love these guys. One of the greatest Rock N' Roll dreams realized.
Love this song ..kiss is the hottest band in the world ! Classic album ..35 yrs and still going strong , been a kiss fan for since I was a kid .. Those were the days
@norwaydude6 If you read my next post to you it says "I read the message wrong" and I also said "it was Paul Stanley" as well as Gene Simmons together that screams that at the beginning of Fire House. I made a mistake and I appalogize.
Just to let people know Alot of the demo versions of songs that KISS did at first were used when doing live concerts. That is how they did it. Just like when someone makes a film they do it they way they want it and then they cut it down to a shorter size.
This is the tune that a young guitarist would have written, with the wild solo at the end. Much better than the released version, except the drums at the end.
@MaddBadgerr Actually according to KISStory, Ace never wanted to be a singer. He preferred to play lead guitar and do backup vocals. It wasn't until later that Ace sang on an album or on tours. I do like this version, grittier, more KISS' style.
@MaddBadgerr I read somewhere a very long time ago that for Ace to be able to hit the notes accurately, that sometimes he had to lay on his back during the studio sessions
@airtanker1 sounds like a rumour inspired by that episode of The Simpsons where Homer gets injured but gains an opera-singing ability whenever he lies flat on his back
@airtanker1 It wasn't hitting notes that was the issue, it's that he would have anxiety attacks. He would lie down so that he could relax and not get too nervous.
You know how little kids are singing songs while they are out playing or on the swingset?? That was me in the 70's, but singing KISS songs. LOL Little kid on the swingset singing stuff like "Cold Gin", "Love Gun", and "Rock and Roll All Nite"..... I'm sure I wasn't the only kid in grade school that knew all the words and guitar solos.
@Hawgknot : Never die!! Yeah, sticking out the tongue at 7 years old and telling girls that 'they call me Dr. Love" only works for so long LOL good thing I didn't know what Plaster Caster was or art class would've really got me in trouble.
Man that sounds like a phone ringing in the background like this was recorded open air much later. Naturally back in 72-73 they didn't have tones back then...just ring a ding ding bells. It seems to happen during the chorus but not all the time which leads me to believe it's some sort of feedback from the drums?
I saw the boys on the In Concert TV show in March of 1974, and went out and bought this album. This is their best studio album. Their live shows today still revolve around the songs from this album. I saw the boys in Toronto in June of 1974, and that was an incredible time period for this band. New. Fresh. Exciting. Hungry.
Ace sings this so much better than Gene ever could. Ace wrote it, so heknows what emotions would be needed to sing it. Check him singing it on the 1998 Psycho Circus Tour.
Ace didn't want to sing it. Gene tried to encourage him to, but Ace was afraid. He sang "Shock Me" alone, laying down on the floor in the dark. Also, since Gene doesn't drink, it doesn't really make sense for him to sing it.
Sweet....This sounds better than the version on the 1st album......This was the demo produced by Eddie Kramer, who also produced Alive, and all of the good studio records..I guess, being a new band at the time they got stuck with whatever producer the record company wanted..too bad cause the first record would have been better sonically with Eddie Kramer producing...awesome song all the same though!
when this song came out, i was nine and me andmy friend used to play kiss. lol. i was space Ace! magic, really good times. i grew listening only kiss!
haha my father was like 12 or 11. and man did he do a great job raising me to a metal head! Kiss was the first band i saw live. my favorite band. i love them, and will allwayes do!
omg did the songs in the beginning always run this long? i'm not complaining i just find it weird. i guess cause it's a demo and they wanna get all their talent out there. idk.
The record company had make-up artist come in and do their make-up for this cover. Gene's make-up is a little different also. Niether Gene or Peter liked the way it turned out. I read that in one of the books Gene put out!
@bloodlinefilms No Peter never did play with this version this make-Up. This was done for the record cover art by a make-up artist. Peter hated it but it was suposed to look mre Japanese Kabuki for some odd reason.
@Blackdragon52k Its similar to the remark I made on Emotional Rescue ,saying that was the last true Stones album. (which in my oipinion it was). I got dozens of Stern hate-mail style replys. With my replys to theirs they cry like like little bitches to administration saying I was offensive to them. Covering my tracks, besides I crushed them, 2 even lost their accounts.........
@legolas1994304 Gene has had a drink. He said he has drank wine at dinner before just to be polite while with Niel Bogart.. But he doesn't make it a habbit of drinking. I do not drink either but it is more because I think it all taste like shit.
Creatures of the Night is CRIMINALLY underrated. Their heaviest and most kick ass album. And The Elder is a thousand times better than Dynasty and Unmasked.
Ironically enough, Dynasty is the effort that got me into KISS. Was nine years old when I first heard "I Was Made For Lovin' You" at a friend's birthday party. "I Was Made..." is one of my ALL TIME favorites!
I'm liking these demos better than the versions that made it onto the album!
Whered you get these?
Also this is a better cover! It better represents each band member's personality and paul doesn't look like he has a lazy eye here like he doesnt on the actual cover!
I wish they had put this on the box set. I would like to hear the Love Gun demos Gene Simmons did with the Van Halens, but the rights aren't being given out by the Van Halens.
1978 was the most successful year for KISS but it was also the end and the solo albums didn't help at. However it was kickass to see how great Ace Frehley's solo album turned out.
That's a good point. I think Casablanca had more copies of those albums pressed than anything else that the band ever did. They sold a lot at first but a lot of them were sent back to the pressing plants or put in the bargain bins.
@EILIVdrummer They broke up because Peter and Ace thought they were the shit. They were not happy being in a band. They wanted to be the band. Ace did well in the 80's because he had talent. He did what he was good at. Peter on the other hand was given a bad rap by being in KISS. Peter is a great Jazz Drummer but everyone wants him to be a rock and roll drummer. So for Peter to be famous he needs to be able to do what he is best at. But upon doing that he would loose all of his fan base.

This is an out-take from the actual cover shoots. I have included all in my 73-75 sideshow, with was deleted.

I'm liking these demos better than the versions that made it onto the album!
Whered you get these?
Also this is a better cover! It better represents each band member's personality and paul doesn't look like he has a lazy eye here like he doesnt on the actual cover!
Whered you get the picture?!

Yo, KISSbestfan, there's no way this '72. 1973 yes.

I wish they had put this on the box set. I would like to hear the Love Gun demos Gene Simmons did with the Van Halens, but the rights aren't being given out by the Van Halens.

Peter's playing is actually better on this compared to the original.I also find the vocals on these early demos are sassier.

And to think Stanley and Simmons got tired of Eddie Kramer and traded him off for super douchebag Vini Poncia. Dynasty and Unmasked ruined them.

I know... they should never done the solo albums, I think that`s one of the reasons they broke up...

1978 was the most successful year for KISS but it was also the end and the solo albums didn't help at. However it was kickass to see how great Ace Frehley's solo album turned out.

I know, the solo albums went great, but it splittet `em : (

If they only pressed say 20 thousand copys each,they would of been excellent additions to any fans collection ...

That's a good point. I think Casablanca had more copies of those albums pressed than anything else that the band ever did. They sold a lot at first but a lot of them were sent back to the pressing plants or put in the bargain bins.

@EILIVdrummer They broke up because Peter and Ace thought they were the shit. They were not happy being in a band. They wanted to be the band. Ace did well in the 80's because he had talent. He did what he was good at. Peter on the other hand was given a bad rap by being in KISS. Peter is a great Jazz Drummer but everyone wants him to be a rock and roll drummer. So for Peter to be famous he needs to be able to do what he is best at. But upon doing that he would loose all of his fan base.
