1: Dynasty 2: Hotter Than Hell 3: Love Gun 4: RNRoll Over 5: Destroyer 6: Dressed to Kill 7: Kiss (S/T) - I don't include the live records. I ranked them on how much I have listened to them since 1975 when I became a fan. Interestingly enough I hate Dirty Living, good solo by Ace.
JOE, You REALLY should listen to MY Alive II. It has a sound close to Alive! it has Hooligan, and a few other surprises. I's called MY KISS Alive II as a 4 sided LP Album. The Alive II KISS Could have and Should have put out.
Joe, As for Alive II opening with Detroit Rock City instead of I stole Your Love is because they had to distinguish it from the tour of that time. The Destroyer Tour opened with Detroit Rock City. The Rock and Roll Over Tour opened with Detroit Rock City. It was only the Love Gun tour that opened with I Stole Your Love. Alive II was made to encapsulate the three tours not be a direct documentation of the then current tour. BUT of course the KISS Alive II I put together is so much better than the official release KISS Alive II. I expect to see comments from you on my video telling me the tears of joy you are experiencing.
I can do without all of Gene's songs on RNROver, I next to never listen to the debut except for Let Me Know, terrible production, for many of the original record (1st 6)songs Gene's songs are just weak to me. I do love Two Timer and Ladies in Waiting. Gene's solo record is on another level of bad minus a couple of songs.
1. Alive!
2. Rock And Roll Over
3. Dressed To Kill
4. Alive II
5. KISS
6. Love Gun
7. Destroyer
8. Hotter Than Hell
9. Dynasty
R and R over by a landslide.

Dynasty is great sadly misunderstood

Yo!!
My #1 is Rock and Roll Over. The rerun of Eddie Kramer to produce it made it sound raw and it’s the sound of KISS I remember most.
Alive 2 will always be my favourite. Then maybe Dynasty and Alive 1. The rest can fall in anywhere really
1. Alive- perfect 2. RARO- go to studio Lp
I can't believe you ranked Destroyer above Hotter Than Hell when Hotter Than Hell has no Great Expectations to complain about.
