Item description
Unfortunately, very little studio material from the very early years of KISS is available today. However, the recordings that do exist are extremely interesting.
This CD begins with the legendary demo recording that KISS made with Eddie Kramer at Electric Lady Studios in New York City.
This version is an upgraded edition of the previously leaked recording. It was reportedly planned for release in 2023 as part of an official KISS Super Deluxe Edition. However, after the acquisition of KISS music rights by Pophouse, the project was postponed indefinitely.
That box set was also expected to include the complete Bell Sound Studio sessions. KISS entered Bell Sound Studios on November 10, 1973, to record their debut album. These sessions are exceptional and unique because they contain different interpretations of songs such as Firehouse and 100,000 Years. Fans can only hope that the complete sessions will one day finally be released.
Finally, this collection includes a demo version of Going Blind from the Hotter Than Hell album, here still titled Little Lady.
This is the complete collection of early KISS studio recordings in the highest quality available.
