1973-75 When Kiss was Dangerous VOL 1-The Demons Of Rock & Roll Are Here... Lock Up Your Daughters Here comes KISS!

I 
(Above Kiss in 1975 a band who obviously was not trying to appeal to Kids)

The year was 1973 & Alice Cooper was on top of the Rock World touring the Billion Dollar Babies Album, The King of Shock Rock, or as he was once quoted as saying Rocks first villan. I remember as a Kid trying to convince my fellow kiss fan friends that they were influenced by Alice but they wanted no part of it. This all changed when Ace Frehley was interviewed and told a story about Seeing Alice Cooper with Paul Stanley & they had the idea if there is One Alice why can't there be four? The idea Kiss would be four guys in Make up was born Four Rock Villans. Kiss set out to conquer the world but in the beginning it was about being the biggest rock band in the world a band that had a great show. in 1974 Kiss released their first self titled album and did an appearance on the Mike Douglas show in which Gene referenced the audience as necks that looked appetizing Gene was a Vampire Bat & really just a Member of Kiss, Then we had The Lover Paul Stanley, Space Ace & Peter Criss The Catman. All through those earlier years in which Kiss released 3 Studio albums & One Live Album they were dubbed The Demons Of Rock & Roll, Alice was Rocks Only Villan & Kiss were Rocks first Demons! Kiss self titled LP, Hotter then Hell & Dressed to Kill are the bands first 3 studio albums but it is the show that breaks out the band & leads to their 5th release Kiss Alive. When Kiss Alive came out in Late 1975 Paul Stanley was quoted as saying it was like a slot machine "You pull the lever & all the fruit lines up! We explore this in our next article "When Kiss was dangerous Part II Coming Soon!

Kiss tricked us!! & It was fantaastic!

Kiss released their follow up to Dynasty in 1980 and this was a time when most of the early 70's fans had checked out, this actually began with Destroyer for the real early fans , but it was the Toys, Solos, and just puberty that most likely caused some to temporally grow out of the band, BUT we still didn't know what they looked like & that still peaked a kids interest regardless. It was rumored that on the inside of this record was a poster & that poster would show them Unmasked But did it? What fun it still was,,, As Kiss mania was taken over Australia , and Europe we Spend June/July exploring the fun of Kiss in 1980.
