    I'll never understand why a final version of this wasn't recorded and included on the debut. I've always liked "Love Theme from Kiss" as an instrumental, but this FULL version is so much better!

    • @Kohntarkosz

      It was their producers' idea. Kenny Kerner and Richie Wise said that "Love themes" are popular in Europe, ya know, you'd have the "Love Theme" from a movie, like Love Theme From Romeo & Juliet or whatever. So they talked the band into dropping the second part of Acrobat, and retitling it Love Theme From Kiss.

      They did actually record 'Acrobat' for the debut, at least partially. There is a snippet available here on TH-cam from just before the 'Love Theme' fade-out, where you hear them segue directly into the 'Much Too Young' section, with the first verse heard only. A damn shame its been lost to history as it featured some of Peter Criss' best drumming work. And just as the song gets uptempo & interesting, they killed it. It was at the behest of producers Kenny Kerner & Richie Wise, who pushed for the 'Love Theme' section & title. A bad call, as I think if this full song was on the first album as well as the classic songs like '100,000 Years' & 'Black Diamond', Kiss might be better remembered as hard rock/heavy metal pioneers.

    They re-used the riff (a chunk of it) off the second part of 'Acrobat' as the intro on 'Detroit Rock City'.
    The firts part is as we all know re-titled as 'Love theme from Kiss'.

      +geminifiver It has never been said by Paul himself that this was the inspiration. Gene tried to get him to admit it on KISSOLOGY Volume I with commentary, but Paul denied it. I think it's true, but it has never been said.

    I agree with you Gemninifever. This is definitively "The Love Theme From Kiss." Acrobat is two parts, the first part is the inspiration for "Love Theme From Kiss" and the second part is the inspiration for "Detroit Rock City" 2 years later. Thanks and Cheers!!!

      +Tyler Glynn The lyrics had no obvious title in them, other than maybe "You're Much Too Young." "Acrobat" was probably was the working title for riff and they kept it once the song was completed.
