Yes Paul. The 2009 version of KISS is the best the band has ever been…
That guy has Alzheimer’s…
This was, in my opinion, the first real “commercial” thing Kiss did. This was Kiss sticking their proverbial little toe into the pond to see if it was warm enough to dive head first. This was when Kiss was cool, but this was also the beginning of the end in many, many ways,
Still, some of the best photographs of this era ever. I can remember being around 8 when I first saw an 8×10 black and white of something from this shoot and thinking, “How cool is this?”
Wow, I´m Snowblind!
Where’s the time we ran out to get the new cream and circus magazines …
Indeed the ‘cool’ days ….
Kiss was a real breath of fresh air. Now, hot air. Everyone has an opinion. Surprised Gene doesn’t create a new Kiss Xmas card every year !
these were shot at MIRAGE by neal preston… MIRAGE was a 3 man photography team that never lasted very long. it included barry levine… thought you’d like to know. cheers! some of the pix need fixing (broken)*
