Kiss mtv unplugged cd12/29/2023 It’s another obscure KISS cut that was dragged out for the Unplugged show. ![]() I assure you, Paul Stanley sounds far better than I do! Also performed on Alive IV, I can’t help but sing along. Anyway, either I’m getting old and soft or this song transcends trends and is a fantastic song. It is no surprise we have them to blame for the Bee Gees. Carli Simon must be pissed! What I mean by that is this song is off Dynasty which is KISS‘ answer to disco and perhaps the most hated KISS album by American fans. “She’s got me by the balls” becomes “she’s got to have it all.” It’s a subtle change but noticeable to freaky looking KISS Army nerds like myself. It is a very cool song but the most noteworthy remark I can make about it is the change in lyrics to fit the MTV standards and practices. Gene returns to vocals on “Domino” off the 1992 released Revenge record. Another classic KISS song and it sounds great unplugged. Paul returns to vocals with “Do You Love Me”. After all, this song is featured on the recently released Alive IV. But, that doesn’t mean the KISS Army won’t like it. It probably has to do with the fact that I have poor vision. Far better than Strudel Statue by Dick and the Erections… Hey, now there’s a name for a band! By far my favorite penis molding song of all time. Oddly, no member of KISS was ever cast by Cynthia. This is a song about Cynthia, the groupie who saw fit to make plaster casts of the PP’s of famous rock stars. Gene struts his vocal stuff with “Plaster Caster” next. And, it never sounded better than on this album. For example, they open with “Comin’ Home.” The average KISS fan wouldn’t know this song by name but a proud KISS Army member like myself knows it by heart. This is because the boys pull a few obscure cuts out of their collection. That is to say it may not jump out to those members on paper but will through audio. The set list may not appeal to those who are not extreme members of the KISS Army. This reunion would spark the KISS boom that took place in 1997 through 2000 and the once again masked phenomena that continues to this day with Gene, Paul, Tommy Thayer, and Eric Singer. Speaking of the other two original members, Ace Frehley and Peter Criss make an appearance on this record performing on Ace‘s “2,000 Man”, Peter Criss‘ “Beth” and “Nothin’ to Lose”, and “Rock And Roll All Nite”. Bruce Kulick and Eric Singer are the other two players on the unplugged set proving what many say, the KISS unmasked line up are better musicians than the original four. The band line up on this KISS release is the most complete of any in the KISS collection as it features the forefathers of KISS in Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley. Even unplugged, this KISS performance has an atmosphere that is simply electric! What was even more expected was the result. Most who attend a KISS concert describe the atmosphere as “electric.” So, it was unexpected when the band turned up on MTV’s popular Unplugged series back when MTV had music related programming or allowed artists on the station that actually play musical instruments.
