Eric Singer is much better than Peter Criss was and I don't like it when people critisize Eric Singer just because he is so much better and he sings this brilliantly and I like him singing Nothing To Lose on Kissoloy volume 3 DVD which I have got and Peter Criss is crass and yes Eric Singer is Chewing Gum because he says it helps him when he sings and I like Eric Singer a lot which is more than I can say for Peter Criss he does not like it since Eric Singer took over you are all jealous ali
LA VERDAD ERIC CARR,ERA MAS ESPECTACULAR QUE ERIC SINGER,PUES ERIC CARR,TENIA ESA MAGIA,EN LA BATERIA QUE HIPNOTIZABA,PERO BUENO KISS,SIEMPRE SERA KISS,Y NO HAY DISCUCION,ATTE UN FAN DE CORAZON.
@wickedcurve not really. Peter criss has been in the ban for 14 years 1974-1980 and then 1996-2004. Eric Singer 1990-1996 and 2004-2011 so yea :P Carr was unfortunately only there for 10 years (R.I.P)
Eric Singer has got a fantastic singing voice I don't see why Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons should do all the vocals I have got their latest CD Sonic Boom with Eric Singer doing the vocals on "All For The Glory" so really Gene and Paul should let him do more vocals he is Brilliant and I fancy Eric Singer Like made form a Kiss and Eric Singer fan Alison Howard
Why do half the kiss fans i know look down on the other lineups? Let's face it, Kiss sounds better live with the other guys in. I personally liked Eric Carr And Bruce together with kiss but i think eric singer sings this song better than eric and peter. Carr sings beth better and Paul sings hard luck woman way better than anyone. Perter just shouldn't sing in my eyes.
Don't understand why people flame Eric Singer so much. This will always be one of Peter's highlights in his career with KISS, vocally, but that doesn't mean Eric Carr or Singer can do the sung damn good justice. Eric Singer does a great job here and on almost every other live version of this that I've heard. Eric Carr was brilliant as well, he sang much rougher, which was cool in a way.
@SilverTounge85 Dude even Peter Criss approves of Eric Singer, he just doesn't like the fact that he's wearing his make up. But still Peter even says that Eric Singer is an excellent drummer.
Why are people still SO hung up over who the "best" drummer is? This version is fucking epic, some of Carr's and Criss's are also epic - different styles for different times and ALL 3 DRUMMERS are vital to the history of KISS. Saying there's no kiss without one of them is insane, there's no kiss without ANY of them.
If you don't respect all 3, you're not a real fan.
Were not saying that ther's no kiss without ace or peter...we respect every member but it's just that we don't respect tommy and eric for wearing the trademark costume and make-up of Ace and Peter and their solos + songs and by that it seems that kiss is just copiers of ace and peter plus most of kiss's best songs are from Ace and peter like beth
What's everyone's obsession with Beth? Sure it's a good ballad, but it's certainly not their best song or one of the best ballads ever written.
I agree that Eric and Tommy should have their own makeup and costumes but that's never going to happen now, and you can understand why Gene and Paul did it, even if it was the wrong move we're stuck with it.
Ace wrote *some* of the best tunes, namely Parasite and Shock Me. They're the only two though, the rest were mainly Gene and Paul. Can't deny it!!
they are certainly not the only two. what about cold gin for an example? ace write that. and i can name at least 15 more songs by peter and ace which are among the best kiss songs ever.
but i have to agree with u though, that MOST of the tunes are actually written by paul and gene. i think paul n gene were the backbones and the whole organisation of kiss, but pete n ace stood for the spirit and the groove.
But It's Paul And Gene's Fault For That, They Chose To Not Put Eric Carr And Vinnie Etc In Ace And Peter's Persona's, But Now They've Said That They Should've Kept The Same Persona's Throughout,
I'm A Huge KISS Fan, But I Still Blame Paul And Gene.
You are an idiot check out ''Black Diamond'' for alive symphony IV and Beth, ur can't hear a better performance from Peter Criss, can say that Singer does it good to, but he need his own style, Eric Carr and Criss does it better, edmit that am right even if your a Singer fan.
I actually think Criss' Alive IV version of Black Diamond is one of his weaker versions. The Beth is brilliant but Criss has done many better versions of BD than that!
as far as musicainship goes i will give eric singer his respect , he is a better drummer then peter criss but as far as vocal performance as far as im concerned both peter criss and eric carr did a better job on vocals ,
Peter was the best I don't think there's even an argument there. There would be no Black Diamond, Hardluck woman, Nothin' to lose, or Beth if it wasn't for him. Plus Peter was the best singer in KISS by far.
No way your wrong eric carr and singer were the best ill admit pete started it all and he was the one who got me into drumming but still eric carr and singers styles are just still better.
I love Peter, Eric Singer and Eric Carrs verisions of "Black Diamond"! Peter´s raspy high voice is good aswell as Eric Singers deep clean voice! But i like the man in the middle: Eric Carr! He's deep and raspy, but also clean voice is fantastic! But i prefer Peters version of "Beth" and "Hard Luck Woman". Eric Singer is best on "Nothin' to lose"
Saw them last weekend at Graspop and man Eric is soooooo great! Awesome drum solo, great Black Diamond and he also did one hell of a kick-ass Nothing To Lose! This guy rocks so hard, it's a real pleasure to see him on stage!!
WHY isn't KISS in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame???? KISS influenced so many bands and left their mark on the music industry and history! Boycott the RRHOF!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This is blasphomy! Eric 'Singer' (what a pun on the art-form that is) has killed this song. There's only one man worthy of singing Black Diamond, and that's the mercurial, Peter 'Cat-Man' Criss!
Peter's drum solo in 100 000 years, with the reverbed toms, was the most awe-inspiring example of percussion I've ever had the pleasure to witness!
How can you possibly rate this song with Eric Singer! No kudos from me! Regards, Ace.
