Ace is BURNING on this. Best version of Firehouse I have heard. Peters drumming dispels every negative thing Paul or Gene has ever said about him.

I especially like to hear the early fills in Firehouse. In the early days no two takes were ever exactly alike. The creativity going on here too is phenomenal.

[@videoproboston2450]

Damn this is awesome! Makes me remember why I fell in love with this band when I was a kid.

[@chrisvinson4697]

It really does sound authentic, COOL! No one ever gives Peter Criss his deserves. That's so original!

[@geoffdavis1954]

When the band started, he was probably the best musician in the band. As the rest of the guys grew musically, Peter regressed due to drug use. Ace was always sloppy, but it was truly his style. No one could ever imitate it. The 4 of them could not have made it in any other line up. The stars aligned and from 1973 to 1978 it was pure magic. Never the greatest musicians, but together, they took over the world for 6 years. I really hope by the end if the road they let Peter and Ace play at least a few songs, IN MAKE UP!!

[@mr.brenman2132]

​@@geoffdavis1954 I don't really see the period when Peter regressed until he was booted. In fact I think he improved. Sounds like more Paul and Gene propaganda has been absorbed by the KISS fans.

[@HappyMachorino-bd8no]

​​@@mr.brenman2132 It's not "propaganda". What Paul wrote about Peter is plausible. As drug-addict he had not the discipline with his talent and his social behavior, they needed. Gene said once "I f*cking hate drug-addicts". And Paul said about Tommy: "I love his playing. And I love his WORK ETHIC! "(Paul's mother came from Germany). In another interview: "I don't need anybody to shoot in my head". My (german) teamleader at work usually says: "You don't get paid for your talent. You get paid for WORK!"

[@Xialong1963]

Xialong1963 Okay, all of my research says it's real. I guess Ace hadn't fully developed his style at that point. The repeating triplets and slow vibrato bends that so define his sound were not part of his skill set at that point. It was supposedly recorded by Gene Simmons on a two track recording machine in the spring of 1973. It's a Japanese release on Zodiac Records from April of 2014. How they got the tapes is a mystery! Thank you for sharing, as this has been an eye-opening look into KISS' early development. By the way, "Space Invader" is Ace's best album in years. find some samples and enjoy!

[@BadVatoSam]

No doubt its real

I think Paul put an end to that by having the rehearsed raps and Peter only having a mic when the roadie swings it around for him. Peter definitely cursed a lot. And Paul’s unscripted banter from the daisy shows is terrible. I just wish Peter got to sing more.
