After just finishing the Kiss Review Series, I have come to realize I have a ton of posts that are about Kiss. I figured (thanks to the help of Mike Ladano) that putting all the links to every Kiss Post in one post might be convenient for the readers of this site. I have everything from Album Reviews, to Book Reviews, to Concert Reviews to almost anything you can think of, I’ve probably written about it. And the good thing is, I will continue to have Kiss Posts as I find more vinyl I don’t have in my collection, more videos, more books, more bootlegs, more tour books and more of well…Kiss. So, I will continually be updating this post with the latest Kiss posts. You might want to bookmark this page for easy reference.
As of right now there are 155 Posts of Kiss…This might take you a while to go through so sit back, grab some coffee and enjoy!!

Thanks John…I have learned a lot. I never thought they had this many albums! I appreciate your honesty in some of the later packaged albums.
Deke reminded me of the Raspberries influence on Paul Stanley and I can hear it now in the earlier albums.

And I didn’t even get to all the albums. I missed a lot of greatest hits albums as if it didn’t have a new mix or new song, I ignored it for the series. I think I missed a video or two because a) I didn’t have it or b) I couldn’t even stream it from anywhere (without going to an illegal site which I won’t do).

Wow…that is incredible. I would have never guessed.
In the 80s I was given some 70s bootleg videos and I thought I struck gold…now those are in these docs that are out.
You just didn’t get to see them back in their peak…You couldn’t buy those things.
Great info John.
