Kiss ALive Box Set

[starz1]

Does anyone have any info on the CD content of this package due 11/14/06 (USA)? There is a rumor that the unreleased Kiss Alive IV CD will be included with Alive I, II and III.

Thanks for any help

[X factor]

Info I've read indicates that the "original Alive IV" WILL be a part of the set.

if it really is alive 4, then i imagine it took this long to get it sounding good... i got some of the songs that were supposed to be included a few years ago and they were horrid on aces part,, it was ace at his worst.

This is something I saw on that subject on billboard.com, which is a great place to get the occasional rock bit of information. I'm pretty psyched that this will have the song "Take it Off" from Alive III, which is only on the DVD and the overseas version of Alive III (if you're from the USA that is). I was actually at one of the shows they recorded Alive III at - Indianapolis, Indiana and Take it Off was great! Anyway, here's the info on the Alive boxed set...

"The first three editions of the "Kiss Alive" series have been bundled with a previously unreleased show from Dec. 31, 1999, in Vancouver as "KISS ALIVE! 1975-2000," due Nov. 21 via Mercury/UME. Also seeing the light of day for the first time are the single version of "Rock and Roll All Nite" on "Alive II" and "Take It Off" on "Alive III."

The Vancouver show was taped in front of 45,000 fans at BC Stadium and was originally planned as the fourth edition of "Alive," but was passed over in favor of a collaboration with an Australian orchestra, taped in 2003. It featured staples like "Deuce," "Cold Gin" and "Lick It Up" alongside more rarely performed tracks like "Heaven's on Fire" and "Psycho Circus."

The original "Alive!" (1975) and "Alive II" (1977) remain among Kiss' most enduring albums; since Nielsen SoundScan began tracking data in 1991, they have sold more than 550,000 copies in the United States."

I am looking forward to this. Ever since I pissed away good money on that POS Alive 4 with the Symphony - I've been wanting the ORIGINAL Alive 4.

I remember seeing it for pre-order on Amazon, then BAM nothing. Anyway I'm gald this is coming out - now for an archive live album series - I WANT SOME LIVE STUFF FROM CRAZY NIGHTS!!

Peace, out.

Stuff we've heard before and stuff we haven't. It'll be interesting to hear Ace doing the songs from whem he wasn't in the band.
