That album “creatures of the night” kicked ass!!

[@klistarf]

My fave KISS album, as much as i love all the eras of KISS. I still have my vinyl copy (with the same original sleeve) too, which i bought late '82 or very early '83. A seriously rockin' album!! \m/ (:o)

[@j.reveille6815]

This is our legacy, the 80's will never die, the music will live forever. Proud to be a metal/rock lover, I started with musicassettes in 1989 when I was 11, I wish I was born in 1970...

[@mattryan2536]

Dude, it made me happy to find this channel. I can't wait to relive some great memories of my youth. Watching your channel sparks memories of a time that was very special. I was born in 73. Being 11 when I got MOTLEY CRUES SHOUT AT THE DEVIL was very influential to my life. What a great time to be young.🤘👽♠️

[@cruztijerina9855]

I know, I was 7 when I discovered this album and it was the heaviest, fastest I had heard up to that point. I remember Red Hot, Bastard and especially the title track. Their best album for sure !

[@alisabrittany]

I was also 11 when I got Shout at the Devil, however I also got DRI (Dirty Rotten Imbeciles) Dealing with It, Slayer: Reign in Blood, Suicidal Tendencies and The Butthole Surfers; Psychic Powerless Another Mans Sac ... That was me done with hair metal LOL

i was born in 73 too young people was robed of everthing. They dont even know it

[@mattryan2536]

@@nadz109 like the fact we had to hunt down some of the music we were interested in. Back in the day we had a underground record store that got hold of stuff you couldn't find in tower or music plus or the warehouse . Lp's dont get me started on those things. Lp's were magic to me. Kids today really don't know the fun of sharing bootleg tapes or standing on line at midnight at tower records to get the first of Alice coppers raise your fist and yell.because it came with a free patch.🤘👽♠️

[@beholden1663]

I was born in 1967. I was into the “ new wave of British heavy metal “ in the early 1980’s. My friend in 10th grade turned me onto The Number of the Beast in 1982. I bought Motley Crue’s Shout at the Devil in 1984 I was in 11th grade and I saw them on that tour in the fall of 1983 in Madison Square Garden. I think they opened up for Iron Maiden whose album piece of mind came out earlier that year. There were lots of good Metal bands such as Krokus, Saxon, Nugent, Priest , Schenker and a very young Metallica. I would go to the local record store who I knew would have European and British import albums.They were more expensive and had the hard plastic around It for it was imported albums. Good days indeed

[@dagjo]

[@viol8r]

I was already into 80s rock, but this song revitalized my love for music. Been a huge fan ever since. And I’m 20😂😂😂

[@redmozzy]

It was Alice Cooper for me. They used to have a late night music show here in the UK in the 80's and one weekend they played the Nightmare Returns(?) concert (the one with Kane Roberts on guitar and Kip Winger on bass). I was smitten there and then. Funny enough, the last concert I went to before all this Covid shit kicked off was..... Alice Cooper last October,

[@alukuhito]

I really liked that song, but it didn't get me into metal. I just thought of it as rock and continued with rock. Glad I didn't go another route.

[@happygirlleocatmusic]

I'm 14 and started listening to classic rock when my mun showed me Queen in 2018 on her birthday. Ever since then I have been collecting CDs and anything else music related and play rock songs on guitar and sing them. Nowadays, its hard to find people around my age that like classic rock like me but I'll find them one day. Luckily some kids do know songs and artist from back then but not alot like I do.

[@adamnanney4952]

Ace Frehley's solo album is my favorite out of the four. He's the most talented in my opinion.

[@tyorbs6277]

Ong when Ace Frehley left KISS the magic of their music left with him,Ace may have been partying too hard and abused drugs a lot in his time with the band but I agree he was the most talented out of all the members like don’t get me wrong Paul,Gene and the others that played with the band are talented but there was something about Aces albums with KISS that shows that Ace gave KISS the sound they were looking for just by whipping out a few guitar solos

[@kennethwilliams7731]

Hi Darrell ! You"re holding up good man! Must be living well? Ive lots of metalheads from back in the day and they partied so hard ,they look more like 70 something,rather than 50. Great collection! I had most of those on cassette!

[@flashy5150]

You’re a little younger than me but I like how you like “Dynasty” and “Asylum” with Bruce Kulick on guitar. To me, “Asylum” is my favorite modern Kiss album. “King of the Mountain”, my favorite modern day Kiss song.

[@ErWo75]

I heard the song “Tears Are Falling” by KISS in 1988. It was the song that got me into Hard Rock music.

Hello from the UK! Found this channel today and loving it. I was born in 1971 but was into all the same music as you guys back in the day. Still got a lot of my records from back then as well although I did buy a lot of them on cassette tape which haven't weathered so well.

[@chuckbowie5833]

I agree, Ride the Lightning is such a masterpiece... As for Pretty Boy Floyd, I had no idea that was a band. It's funny, because Floyd Mayweather Jr. (the boxer)'s first nickname was "Pretty Boy Floyd Mayweather," before becoming "Floyd Money Mayweather." Never imagined a guy like him would borrow the name of a hair metal band.

I first saw Kiss from that 1976 TV thing you guys were goofing on in another video when I was 7 years old. I liked them OK but never really got into them until "Creatures of the Night" which was my first Kiss album. "Love It loud" is still my favorite Kiss song ever with "War Machine" a close second. Years later a friend turned me on to the "Dynasty" album which is way underrated. I even remember when it came out the cries of them selling out to disco. Yet there is only one disco song on the record. Has like four killer Ace Frehley tunes on it.

[@lukeweaver_art5405]

Man! I’m loving this stuff! I was totally into metal/hard rock in the eighties and early nineties as well. I recently started rediscovering some of my favorite bands from the day, most notably Enuff Z’nuff, Skid Row and Tesla. I even ran across one I’d almost forgotten about, Kik Tracee they had an awesome tune called “you’re so strange “ 🤟

Awesome sets and old vids Darrell. The good thing I liked about KISS albums compared to some of other bands were the surprises inside like the platinum record, tattoos, mini bio/tour books and of course the posters. I don't know if you're into Styx, but the Grand Illusion poster was cool. And last, were you into " Groove magazine " ? They put in some badass KISS posters.
