Incredible footage, Kiss in their 1977 Prime, this is the timeframe of Kiss thats always seen as the best time to see the band. This is what the Kiss Avatars need to be modelled around.

As far as guitar solos go, i can't imagine anything cooler than Ace's smoking guitar! I was fortunate enough to see it live in 77 at 10 years old.😶🌫️ Awesome!!

the picture quality on this is thoroughly awesome. Looks like they were having a good show too. Ace's tobacco burst Les Paul, and Paul's black flying V have both long since been stollen. lol. this was worth every second. rare KISS super8mm THIS is what you-tube is for!

Summer of ‘77: I was going into the sixth grade this coming September. KISS is ALL I cared about at this time. Aerosmith Rocks and Frampton Comes Alive were huge albums during this time. Foreigner Double Vision too. Once I discovered Zeppelin a couple short years later, that was it. I was finished. Great job on the synch-up audio to footage here!
@thedude3423Ай бұрын
I was a huge 'Smith fan at this time too. Had just gotten into them during the winter. My older brothers had no kiss records or tapes, so no kiss till late '78 through my cousin. Also late '78 AC/DC "If You Want Blood...You've got It" was huge in the house. None of my friends had a clue! We gotta be close in age too. Sixth grade fall of '77...👍💯😊🎶

This was the 1977 Love Gun Tour. It was a very short Tour that started in Halifax, NS on July 8th, 1977. I was right up front for that show at the old Halifax Forum. I still have my Ace guitar pick from that show framed in my man cave. Cheap Trick was one of teh opening acts here in Halifax. Prior to that show I had seen them in April of 1976 at the same venue for the Destroyer Tour show. Quite sure I sustained hearing damage from those shows...LOL!

Incredible footage at their pinnacle. And equally impressive camera work considering you weren't allowed to even take photos back then. If caught snapping a pic, the "bouncers" would literally take the film out of your camera. take another and you were thrown out. Ask me how I know :0) Well done!

That's one thing I wish they did more of on the Can-Am tour the rock and roll over tour and love gun was play more the older stuff like got to choose parasite cold gin hotter than hell rock bottom and she. That always kind of was ironic to me that these guys wouldn't play a late show and an early show back then I mean the one show they played was just a little over an hour long. I mean these guys back then could have played two shows a night. there was plenty of musicians that were doing that back then. Like they should have done a show with all the new material and then the second show with a bunch of the older material

Say what you want about Gene. And yea, he's been tainting his legacy since they started letting him talk too much. It completely altered the original Simmons character perception. The fire breathing blood spitting demon with the abrasive vocals. He's one of the most influential characters of all time

Just thinking, anything labeled "Kiss" after the Love Gun tour should be banned from KZbin. Or at least come with some kind of disclaimer for those not fortunate enough to have seen them live in the mid 70's. You'd leave feeling that you just watched 4 rockstars killing it the entire concert. And then as early as the Dynasty tour, you left feeling like you just saw guys putting on a Kiss show rather than a rock concert.
