Hey my friend so glad to hear you are enjoying this one, great to hear the original lineup do what they do best…ROCK! Take care, Thanks for watching and commenting ! ~ Jeff
I’m really excited for Aprils release as well from Poughkeepsie with Mark St. John, should prove to be another Incredible one! Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts and watching! Take care! ~ Jeff
Hey there Ricardo how have you been my friend? Absolutely 77 rules, rocks & rolls like no other ! Appreciate hearing from you and watching, hope all is well! Take care and cheers! ~ Jeff
Awesome addition! It's good to stay on top of these type of series, they will be hard to track down and the cost will probably go up over the years. I'm excited to hear about the quality, I may have to buy this one! I do like the marketing approach and packaging for this series. Bootlegging the bootleggers! Cheers ~Corey
Hey Corey how have you been doing? You are absolutely correct with later pricing, I have learned over the years about putting off buying albums for a time and circling back to purchase only to find prices double and triple in cost if your lucky enough to even find a copy at all! The series is absolutely brilliant in every detail and I planning on picking up each one if possible only because I enjoy the live sound as the same song can sound so different from year to year and venue to venue by different band lineups! Appreciate you watching and leaving your awesome comment as always, hope to talk soon! Take care ~ Jeff
Hi Jeff… excellent ! I am loving this one . Love the rawness and hunger in the performance. So cool to have a complete show from the Alive 2 tour with songs from Alive 1. Looking forward to the Creatures reissue and the next in the soundboard series. Thanks for sharing Jeff. Take care. Chez
Hey Chez my friend how are you doing? Are you the same Chez from our Instagram channel chats? Just wondering as I don’t know how common a name Chez is? I’m always a sucker for these live albums with the original band playing their hearts out. The first two live albums of theirs kinda set the standards for the rest to follow and this one is no exception! Can’t wait to hear an announcement in the coming months on what the next soundboard will be …always a nail bitter LoL! Take care my friend and thanks for watching and commenting! ~ Jeff
Great overview, Jeff! I went with the black vinyl on this one, too (10 year-old me would have laughed at the purple). This concert is right in the pocket of my favorite era and line-up. My only gripe with these Soundboard releases is the lack of extras. I get the "plain wrapper" concept but HOW cool would it be to get a line-up/era appropriate poster in each of these? Or stickers?... or whatever. I think sales would be much higher (not that they're low... I don't know).
Hey Brian OMG! how long has it been my friend since we’ve spoke? Yea I get the colored vinyl as a collectable but if your going to do a bootleg replica it has to be done right and that is black vinyl! I was thinking about the same thing only I was thinking a handout poster with each purchase of the album and band lineups to keep with the album and put in if you chose…I guess great minds think alike LoL! Thanks for watching and commenting It was a wonderful surprise hearing from you again Brian! Take care and talk soon brother! ~ Jeff
It’s been a bit! Kind of a “lurker,” these days, but still love seeing Kiss content from friends, like you, and others. You’re right, black vinyl just seems to feel right for these. I did get the green one, though. I just kind of “play it by ear” and decide if I like the color or not. And, yes, great minds… 😂👍
As always, you my friend, are the man with the hottest KISS goodies in town. I'm living vicariously through you! Thank you for sharing your latest acquisitions with us, all great stuff good sir. Cheers... Long Live KISS!!!🥃🔥🤘
Hey there Dirty Hairy As always I appreciate you watching and the very kind words in your awesome comments! Great hearing from you my friend and glad your enjoying the videos! Take care and talk to you soon! ~ Jeff
"You wanted the best and you got the best". Good evening Jeff. As you know I am a huge fan of these live shows that Kiss are releasing. I am also an advocate for any band releasing live shows for the fans. Especially an assortment from all different tours. I did find out why there has been no Mighty Blimp live albums released. Page is all for it. But apparently the other two members have to agree on it. If they have no interest in doing anything for their fans it cannot be done. So I cannot blame Jimmy for this one. I have to blame Robert and Jonesy. I remember you mentioning something about the packaging of these albums. Did you say that you were a fan of the 'Off The Soundboard' packaging? I absolutely dig the sparse/plain look. The paper bag colored cardboard, the logo and the writing only. Superb. >< I am very happy for you. You are hearing these shows for the first time am I right? Have any of these shows ended up on bootlegs over the years? I am sure that one or two of them have been booted by some of the premier Japanese or American bootleg labels. Or maybe not. It is great seeing them being released for all of the Kiss fans globally. Any word on any Boston shows being released? Thanks for sharing this new one from Des Moines Jeff. I am sorry that I have not been in touch as of late. No excuses. Just working like crazy and trying to enjoy the last days of the endless summer 2022. Man I cannot believe that it is getting darker out so darn early. That means one thing to me. Fall is coming. Not a happy camper. {smile} Only 281 days until the endless summer 2023. I will be in touch Jeff. Have a super week~ Rob/Boston
Hey there Rob good evening to you! I’m also enjoying these releases quite a bit especially the last two with my favorite lineup! I like the fact that they are bouncing around from different decades so that everyone can get a little taste of what they have to offer to the younger fans that are getting into their music and want to own some physical media. That’s too bad about Zeppelin not jumping on the wagon and releasing some of their past concerts, although you have probably been to everyone multiple times throughout their career. 😉 I absolutely am a fan of this packaging as nothing else would seem right for a bootleg album and holding true to the name and past history in every sense of the word. The typewriter print is actually a fantastic idea and the Devil is in the detail and they missed nothing including the smudges on the center rings of the album. You are correct I am enjoying these concerts for the first time so a chance like this doesn’t come along every day so seize the opportunity when it presents itself. Honestly I have no idea if any of these concerts have ever actually been bootlegged in the past but would be pretty darn cool to have a copy of an unauthorized version as well as a authorized version just for comparison value alone. Unfortunately I have no idea of any upcoming releases it’s all hush hush until the announcement of another album being released but nothing up until that point that I know of but hopefully fingers crossed Boston will definitely be on the list at some point! No worries about staying in touch as I am equally as guilty as we both blessed with plenty of work and winters are made for exactly that, staying in catching up with good friends and spinning good music which we will do soon enough my friend so work and enjoy what is left of this endless summer !!! Thanks so much for your continued friendship and support Rob its always appreciated and cherished ! Take care buddy and catch up with you soon! ~ Jeff
Hi Jeff. I have to admit, I haven't looked into these OTS releases, but after seeing this, I sampled it and it smokes. Think I'll jump on it. Enjoy your rainy day spins. Cheers!
Hey Jeff how have you been my friend? Yes a very interesting series for now, I don’t know how many they will do or how far I will go with this series but for now I’m loving these past concerts especially with the original band! Appreciate you watching and commenting, great hearing from you as always! Take care! ~ Jeff
Hey Kenny This is one of my favorite of the series so far, I really don’t mind hearing Hooligan whenever or where ever it shows up! 😃 Thanks so much for watching and your awesome comment! Take care my friend! ~ Jeff
Hey Christopher I have to admit I spin post 1996 but my favorite and what I love is 75 - 96 and absolutely enjoy the UNPLUGGED album! Take care, thanks so much for watching and commenting ! ~ Jeff
Hey Robert great to hear from you! Don’t blame you for holding out for something that you really want and will enjoy, hopefully with fingers crossed something from 1988 will be happening very soon. I would also look forward to hearing one with Eric Carr playing before his untimely passing in 91, such an excellent drummer! Thanks for watching and commenting, as always much appreciated! Take care my friend and talk soon! ~ Jeff
Yo Jeff, congrats on another wonderful "official" bootleg gets! :) They are even using fonts from 70's ? :) Des Moines? Got me thinking, would they even do one from Oklahoma? BTW good to "catch" downing an early morning beer after your comment about me having my too early in the evening on my live show! LOL Cheers bud! Always good to see you enjoying your collection and the beer! :) Take care and talk to you soon! ~NammaN~
Hey NammaN starting to really enjoy collecting this series since thinking about it it could really be endless and I can finally get to all those concerts I missed out on growing up only difference is I can reply these when ever I want and the concert would be one and done…LoL! How cool if Oklahoma comes up on one of their bootleg albums! My beer wasn’t too early morning as I was already done with my breakfast and already getting ready for lunch.😉 Great seeing you doing another Meet The Collector video today they are always enlightening and fun to watch! Take a buddy and talk to you soon! ~ Jeff
Hey there DJ ROACH 323 So you passed on the Virginia Beach? This one is much better IMO that is so you will enjoy! Thanks for watching and your comment my friend! Take care ~ Jeff
I love it !
Best KISS Album since 40 Years !!!
KISS 1977 Live in Des Moines
Hey my friend so glad to hear you are enjoying this one, great to hear the original lineup do what they do best…ROCK!

A fantastic double live album with the original lineup just like it was done in the past …everything old is new again!
I live in Des Moines and I was there at that show I was 18 years old
OMG Awesome! Did you get the copy of the show? That would be a great collectable!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Take care ~ Jeff
Incredible live album , raw 70s kiss , the best in the off the soundboard series by far
I’m really excited for Aprils release as well from Poughkeepsie with Mark St. John, should prove to be another Incredible one!

So they swapped Take Me with King of the Night Time World. I like both though.
And Hooligan with Let Me Go, Rock N' Roll. Nice! Hooligan sucks, Lol.
Hey Kenny
This is one of my favorite of the series so far, I really don’t mind hearing Hooligan whenever or where ever it shows up! 😃
Thanks so much for watching and your awesome comment!
Take care my friend! ~ Jeff
Seriously though,does anyone REALLY want to hear any live Kiss after 96?
No.
Hey Christopher I have to admit I spin post 1996 but my favorite and what I love is 75 - 96 and absolutely enjoy the UNPLUGGED album!
Take care, thanks so much for watching and commenting ! ~ Jeff
Good point
KISS will always be Ace, Peter, Gene, Paul. The Rock & Roll HOF got it right!
@@1992YR
That’s always the way I look at KISS as well…the original lineup! ~ Jeff
Hi Jeff, my mate got his copy yesterday so I knew I would see you posting. Another miss for me. Should one be from 1988 and I will be purchasing.
Hey Robert great to hear from you!
