Kiss / Rare History 1980 Vol.3

In tribute to the passing of KISS’s original guitarist, Ace Frehley, in October 2025, here is Part 3 of the ultimate compilation video, the eighth installment, featuring 2 hours and 33 minutes of rare footage from the 1980 album “UNMASKED,” all in the best master quality. This compilation was compiled by an overseas KISS researcher who selected and edited a vast amount of video material using the latest equipment. Since a considerable amount of footage remains from the “UNMASKED” period, which is now “VOLUME EIGHT,” it has been divided into Parts 1, 2, and 3, bringing together various rare videos from the time, such as TV appearances and tour live performances, in chronological order. Part 3, following Part 2, compiles valuable TV footage related to the early 1980 Oceania tour, starting with press conference footage, tour live reports, and the famous documentary program “The Inner Sanctum” that featured the tour, offering a rare collection of footage that shows how enthusiastically KISS was received in Australia at the time.
