I suppose you haven't heard, but it was discovered that Paul Stanley had some sound changes made to their LIVE albums, to make them sound better. Not sure exactly what was done, but I thought exactly like you did. I heard about the live music changes about 10-15 years ago..maybe?? I LOVED ALIVE II. I was a KISS Fanatic, and fell under the spell of Van Halen in 78. I was only 13, but then listened to a little band called Led Zeppelin. My brother had a bunch of Led albums. Around 79, I heard on local Chattanooga Rock Stations that Gene Simmons had come CLOSE to acquiring the Van Halen guitarist Edward Van Halen, in 76 or 77, before VH 1 came out. I've been to SO many Rock Concerts, and at 57, STILL love them...
I wish they would put out live versions of ALL their tunes (at least through '78). If you look hard enough on YT, you can find live versions of everything off the first three studio LPs. I'll bet KISS has more in the vaults. KISS live is (almost) always the best!
I had read that they played up tempo pace in their live performances vs their albums. I agree. When saw them live they were heavy and fast. Sounded epic.
You don't even know their names, yet you know that the ORIGINAL drummer (Peter Criss), and original guitarist (Ace Frehley), were the backbone of the band?? You couldn't be more incorrect, if you tried. Gene Simmons (The bass player, Vocalist), and Paul Stanley (Rhythm Guitarist, Vocalist), are the two FOUNDERS of the Band, and have written almost all the music this band has put out over the years. Criss wrote "BETH", I believe about his Wife or girlfriend, and was a HUGE hit during the mid-70's. Criss was kicked out of the band in the late 70's, early 80's, because his drumming style APPARENTLY lacked something they were wanting (Gene and Paul). His replacement was a guy named Eric Carr, whom, had he not been diagnosed, and succumbed to Stomach Cancer, would STILL be in KISS. Paul and Gene BOTH thought the WORLD of Eric, and knew him to be one of the Top level Percussionist on the Planet.
How about it. I remember this concert, such a great band. Just like a sports team, sometimes the chemistry ignites them egos. This convert was right in the middle of the summer of sam thing!
If you missed playing in a band, then you can never understand it. I was the nicest guy in my old band, but I was also a huge asshole! This explains it all
So many people just slam kiss, but I've seen them 5 times and they are the best. I was at cobo for the live recording. Sorry but back then nobody could even come close to them
Thats what im saying. Ive seen alot of shows in my life. KISS still puts on an incredible performance. Ive been in the balcony of shows and still feel the heat from the flames.
@@piratestyleadventures7185 hi pirate, I did see kiss at their las Vegas residency, sadly they were very old and tired. I paid alot for the tickets and was very disappointed and embarrassed. My English husband had never seen them before and I kept telling him what a great show they put on and how great they were. Again very embarrassed 😳 😕 😞
@@deborahhewitt6101 sorry to hear that. I always like to remind people, you dont go see KISS for who they are now, you see KISS for who they once were. And not being the original line up, and being 70plus can be a deterrent. Ive seen alot of musical acts. Although other bands are younger and more talented ( KISS present day drummer Eric Singer is an elite), No band to this day even comes close to there stage performances.
They're absolutely terrible, wtf happened at 1:34? Basic repetitive songs, singing is absolutely terrible. No technique or skill, that's why he lip syncs now.
One of Kiss's greatest assets was that all four of the original guys could sing, and sing well. This is arguably Gene best performance ever. Singing harmonies where often cringy though.
One of our good friends from Chattanooga, Tenn. moved to Seattle in 86 after UTC graduation, and he was recruited by a Firm in Seattle, and moved there. Myself and several other friends visited him quite often. We went to a outdoor Concert that had Soundgarden with the Original bassist, The Melvins, Tad, and at their end...Green River. It had ALOT of other bands. We had dropped several hits of LSD, and that musical experience was so far ahead of the Hollywood Shit that was being put out. The last nite we were there Black Flag was in Seattle, and we went to it ss well. Id seen them twice before that. Our friend Roger Goldman was killed in an auto accident. The difference between going up there to have fun and chill, while seeing a non Hairmetal form of music, was great. The day he was sent to Chattanooga, and myself and a few others that were Christians went and picked him up at the Chattanooga Airport. Roger was Jewish, and we fid everything correctly cause his Father was a Rabbi at their Synagogue....35 uesrs ago. At the same time Rog moved to Seattle, another one of our Jewish buddies moved to LA, and has lived there for 35 years. Although it sucks getting old, its nice knowing you're a Southern Boy that watched the incoming Grunge movement BEFORE and WHEN they took over!! Although Roger died in 89, we'd already established a whole bunch of new friends there. It was great time in my life, a heartbreaking time in my life, and in all honesty...just life. It was awesome.
Clearly, Paul's voice was faltering and there was no way he was gonna hit those high notes for the chorus. Likely touring fatigue on his vocal chords. It's too bad they didn't turn Peter Criss' mike up a bit so he could actually be heard. Don't think Peter could hit those notes either only the Starman had that range. Gene never really had a voice. But this still gives me the chills.
It wasn’t so much Peter for the meter it started with the guitar setting the tempo Was hard to do anything drum wise with that song at that tempo It lost all its groove and became jumbled and rushed!
Doctor doctor give me the news I got a bad case of loving these great tunes from KISS!!!
One of their best songs.
Kiss sounds so much better and heavier live than they do on albums

Yes they do! I was recently thinking the same about Cheap Trick too.

One of the great rock songs of the '70s.

@@jeffdarnell7942 peter was fired and thankfully so....
Ace sounds great on that solo
When doesn't he?
KISS from the old days........raw, very good
Paul Stanley talks more intensely than most other singers can sing.
This is authentic raw kiss. The original the best!
Pete’s on that cocaine beat!
I just don't know why these guys couldn't get along. They killed it on stage
Bunch of massive egos paired with substance abuse makes for a pretty experience.
Too much fame and no humility
Ego

The original 4! No other version beats it.
Rock and Roll Over released 46 years ago today - 11/11/1976.
I'm not old, YOU'RE old! 😂 (Okay, so I'm old).

Omg gives me chills....
Every time.
When Ace was a fucking beast !
The first step of the cure is…a KISS! Wooooo they rocked the world in the 70s!
KISS IS F***G GOOD BAND....
WAS
I don't know what the scariest thing about being a little kid in the 70's was. Kiss, adults smoking inside the house or Hugh Hefner
KISS RULES 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Great set right here!
Absolutely 💯 💯 💯
Wow this is so fast but I love it!!
I love this song so much
Hell yeah! Just what I needed this morning! Thanks Noah!
Gene snapped the hell off great performance of that song!!!
Takes me back my 15 year old self🤘🤘🤘
My Favorite Doctor Love

Pinch Harmonic @ 2:34.
I was one, who always thought that they should have never revealed their face…keep a shade of mystery.
Back when Gene sang with that growl in his voice, like the rabid dog in heat that he was in the 70s lol
ACE ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
1:12
Ha! .... Haaa!
one of the band mates doesnt need to chime in with dr love lol
I assume you mean Paul
Dr. Rockzo?
The rock and roll clown?
Cocaine catman kicks ass
ace, gene and eric band😂😂
Gene discovered van halen
king cobra
Paul Stanley for President......
Ace all day hey gene king diamond wants to talk with you about corpsepaint lawsuits⚰️
No, they probably call me " dirty old man".
Clearly, Paul's voice was faltering and there was no way he was gonna hit those high notes for the chorus. Likely touring fatigue on his vocal chords.

this should have always been the tempo = the studio version is slow as shit
Gene and paul are so stoned here on heroin and coke and alcohol while ace criss and peter frehley alwaya shun drugs,we all know that.
Leo Stone ace was a BIG drinker
You weren't there, you know nothing
another know it all. who knows NOTHING! lol.
My God the KISS Army is filled with retards. How can you not see that Leo is joking?
Sarcasm detected
I HATE when they play the songs TOO FAST !
shockingly sloppy
damn, I gotta say Peter RUINS this song live
its horrible. its too fast n too busy ugh..
Kiss drummers play the live version faster, it's more rockin' up tempo
@@2mrwarioThat's ok for some songs.
Yea it's the number one rule in music you don't break...time
It wasn’t so much Peter for the meter it started with the guitar setting the tempo
Was hard to do anything drum wise with that song at that tempo
It lost all its groove and became jumbled and rushed!
Immediately... Peter's shitty drumming... Was Eric Singer not available yet?
th-cam.com/video/aTczUzMJ15M/w-d-xo.html
Shut up, shut your mouth when Peter is playing.
Eric was 19.
it was the 70's, clueless kid, so no, and eric was still playing with baseball cards lol
This song is super weak
Gene Simmons can’t sing a damn
That's because we have walls of Marshalls
