When I close my eyes and listen to Gene Simmonds' voice, he always reminds me of some straight and serious heavyweight news anchorman, rather than a rock star!
There is great music from America that is on par with that from England's finest but per capita England was grossly more prolific.Sabbath,Zep,Kinks,Stones and Slade(who I've grown to enjoy actually)..pff..the list does not end.
@DanielDumile ............kiss are great i agree but pal your a fuckin idiot if ya think slade were talentless. ive watched loads of kiss documentaries and they always name slade as one of their main influences. Instead of being a knobhead just enjoy the comments and maybe brush up on your facts
@fletch00001 always kind of felt sensational alex harvey band was moreso influential especially with the makeup or am I wrong to guess this? It sure seems like it
Slade influenced Kiss, you can see it in their stage costumes and their music. There was a report when Slade supported Kiss in the 1970's (Kiss were massive, Slade were on the decline) Gene Simmons went up to Noddy to ask for his autograph!!!
