The decision for Kiss to release a live album is a story that most have heard, struggling band, struggling record label, both going for broke. In one of the most historic gambles in Rock, the band and their record label would virtually overnight become famous beyond their wildest dreams. You see Kiss was building a reputation as an incredible live act, loved by the fans and feared by headliners in just a few short years the workmanship and dedication of the band and the road crew would finally hit pay dirt. September 1975 would see the release of Alive!, recorded earlier in the year and massively overdubbed in the studio, the record would boast a sort of greatest hits in a live setting and even though it did have extensive work done to it, seemed to capture the spirit and excitement of the Kiss live. By early December the band got word that the record had gone gold while on tour in Texas and by January the album would sell to a mythical status, Platinum. The tour to support Alive! would find the band using the same stage and costumes as the short Dressed To Kill dates, but the band were moving to larger venues, from theaters to arenas and doing very good business. Starting in September 75 and finishing in late March 76, the tour would consist of 87 dates, all as headliners save for one lone date where the band supported Black Sabbath, their last concert as an opening band for 13 years. Now for the first time ever. 45 minutes of unreleased outtakes from the legendary 1975 Kiss Alive! Album.
