Description
In 1978, at the height of Kiss popularity, rather than release a new studio album, all four members simultaneously released a solo album. Although critics have often called this nothing more than a gimmick, there is no denying the quality of these recordings. All four albums are well written and crafted. All four members of Kiss really put their heart and soul into this project and made a solo album that really reflects their personality. Kiss was like a stew, made up of four separate ingredients. The Kiss solo albums of 1978 really let you see each member and what it is exactly they brought into Kiss. Ace Frehleys solo album was the hardest and most popular of the four albums, Paul Stanley made a solo album that sounded what a possible studio album by Kiss would have sound like at that moment, Peter Criss who didn’t sing enough on the Kiss albums made an heartfelt R&B style album that clicked totally with the Kiss Army and Gene Simmons who writes the heaviest stuff on the Kiss albums released an Beatles influenced album. This limited box set comes with all four solo albums in picture disc lp replica paper sleeves together with a ‘Detroit Rock City’ beer bottle opener and a booklet Track listing: Ace Frehley 1.
