Description
A live album that lets you experience the “DRESSED TO KILL Tour” that produced the famous “ALIVE!” has arrived! The best master release of the legendary recording called “Tour Best” has been decided. The best recording was recorded at the “August 23, 1975 Hempstead Performance”. This is an excellent audience recording that vacuum-packed the whole story. Speaking of 1975, it was a time when three tours switched, and our shop archives each of them with as many masterpieces as possible. First of all, let’s look at the position of this work from the schedule at that time. “HOTTER THAN HELL Tour” January 7th – February 22nd (14 performances) “DRESSED TO KILL Tour” March 19th – August 28th (65 performances) ←★Here★ “ALIVE! Tour” September 10th – December 31st (50 performances) This is KISS in 1975. The “DRESSED TO KILL Tour” on which “ALIVE!” was produced was a US tour spanning spring and summer. Since various masterpieces such as pro shots, sound boards, and audiences remain, let’s narrow down the dates and organize the collection. Details of the “DRESSED TO KILL Tour” * March 19th “NORTHAMPTON 1975” ・ March 21st – May 10th (26 shows) * May 11th “BOSTON MAY 1975” * May 16th “DETROIT 1975” & ALIVE! ・ May 17th – 29th (8 shows) * May 31st “LONG BEACH ARENA 1975” ・ June 1st – 7th (3 shows) * June 13th “TULSA 1975 SOUNDBOARD” ・ June 14th – August 2nd (14 shows) ← * ALIVE! * August 3rd “PROVIDENCE 1975” ・ August 14th – 17th (4 shows) * August 23rd: Hempstead show ← ★ This work ★ ・ August 25th – 28th (3 shows) … and so on. The pro shot “DETROIT 1975” and the sound board “TULSA 1975” are familiar, but the masterpiece of the audience recording of the on-site experience, “NORTHAMPTON 1975 MASTER CASSETTE” is also fresh in my memory. The Hempstead performance of this work was the 62nd concert of the later period than any of them. Such a show has long been known as a famous recording with a reputation as “tour best”, and this work is the best master of that legendary recording. Its freshness is exquisite. The conventional master had periodic instability and rough dubbing deterioration, but this work is stable. The sound is beautiful, and the long notes extend beautifully to the end of the fading edge. The more you know the conventional master, the more you will be impressed by the freshness of the master. In this way, the quality of the recording that was originally called “tour best” shines. It is not the type that you would mistake for a sound board, but the vivid core rush is wonderful, and it jumps into your ears with fine details. The realistic reproduction of the scene is irresistible. The fresh sound depicts a full show where the band potential that produced the masterpiece “ALIVE!” explodes. As mentioned above, the representative audience of the “DRESSED TO KILL Tour” is the masterpiece “NORTHAMPTON 1975”, so let’s organize the set by comparing them at the end. KISS (7 songs) Deuce / Strutter / Firehouse / Nothin’ To Lose / 100,000 Years / Black Diamond / Cold Gin Others (6 songs) HOTTER THAN HELL: Got to Choose / Hotter Than Hell / Let Me Go, Rock And Roll DRESSED TO KILL: She / C’mon And Love Me / Rock And Roll All Nite (★) *Note: The “★” mark is a song that could not be heard in “NORTHAMPTON 1975 MASTER CASSETTE”. All of these songs can be heard on “ALIVE!”, and the point of this work is the feeling of experiencing the entire tour rather than aiming for rare songs. If “NORTHAMPTON 1975” is the masterpiece of the early tour, this work is the masterpiece of the final tour. In fact, what comes out of this work is a great performance that has been trained on the stage day after day. Normally, you would think that they would be tired after such a tough schedule, but their physical strength and energy, as they were in their 20s at the time, is bottomless (by the way, Gene’s 26th birthday was two days after this work). They are performing a magnificent full show filled with confidence and fulfillment that they will soon finish a large-scale tour. Along with the masterpiece “NORTHAMPTON 1975”, this is a field experience album that can be said to be the two greatest peaks of the “DRESSED TO KILL Tour”. The highest peak updated master CD that only a researcher could know. An exquisite audience recording of the “August 23, 1975 Hempstead performance”. The best master of the famous recording, which has a reputation as the “best tour”. The freshness is exquisite, and while the previous master had periodic instability and rough dubbing deterioration, this work is stable. The sound is beautiful, and the long notes extend beautifully to the end of the fading edge. This is a new masterpiece that allows you to experience the full show where the band potential that produced the great masterpiece “ALIVE!” explodes.
