Happy Birthday KISS ALIVE II

Post by Heston »

40 today. Look at the rock majesty in this picture from the gatefold cover. The kind of shit the Replacements could only dream about...

KISS: Look at all the fireballs and platforms and fireworks!
Replacements: We can satisfy audiences on music alone.

Yes, I do. And this motherfucker, which was just released a week ago, sold out in ALL local Twin Cities record stores for a over a week and went on immediate back-order. Oh - and the version of "Black Diamond" is even better than the 'Let It Be' studio version. Which is waaay better than the Kiss original. And it's not even a very good song to begin with.

I too am pissed about the existence of Kiss Alive II.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Pex Lives!
