Kiss/Chile 03.11.1997 FM Broadcast Edition

“A sequel to “ALIVE” by the original four” that everyone was looking forward to in the original reunion era, but that never came true. A piece that embodies that dream is finally born! A best master CD will be released to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the reunion. What is engraved in this work is “March 11, 1997 Santiago performance”. This is a stereo soundboard recording. This show is also famous for having only one FM sound board left on the “ALIVE/WORLDWIDE Tour” (although there are many professional shots). This work is the highest peak update of such a one and only sound board. This is the best master provided by overseas KISS researchers. We have archived the reunion tour of the century with many masterpiece professional shots. In order to organize the collection, let’s first take a look at the overall picture of the world tour. 1996 [KISS UNPLUGGED released on March 12th] June 15th to August 10th: North America #1a (32 performances) ← *Official Detroit video August 17th: Monsters Of Rock appearance August 21st to November 10th: North American #1b (57 performances) ← * ATLANTA 1996 1ST NIGHT・November 20th to December 21st: Europe #1 (19 performances) ・December 28th to 31st: North America #2 (4 performances) 1997 ・January 18th to February 15th: Sunday Book/Oceania (15 performances) March 7th to 14th: Central and South America (5 performances) ←★Here★ March 21st to May 6th: North America #3 (35 performances) ← *TOLEDO 1997 and others – May 16th to July 5th: Europe #2 (23 performances) ← *ROCK AM RING 1997 Official transcendental edition produced by the only FM broadcast of the reorganized tour This is a panoramic view of the “ALIVE/WORLDWIDE Tour” that burned the whole world. The official Detroit video is the beginning of the tour, and “ROCK AM RING 1997” is the final stage, but the Santiago performance of this work is one night of only 5 performances in “Latin America”. It was a concert about a month before the masterpiece pro shot “TOLEDO 1997 PRO-SHOT UPGRADE”. This work, which conveys such a show, is an unusually powerful soundboard. Completely official grade…or rather, I would like to call this “official transcendental grade.” As the reunion tour was being broadcast on FM, which the whole world watched with bated breath, the ensemble was mixed perfectly, creating a gorgeous finish that even made the spectacle of a gigantic venue stand out. The dynamic range is also extremely impressive. On the other hand, the live performance itself is fiercely raw. The power that comes from being unedited comes out as it is without going through any processing. Perhaps it is based on a direct-connected sound board with a strong sense of scale, and just adds a spoonful of scale. The panning that blows left and right with an ultra-stereo width that would be unimaginable in normal Western broadcasting also feels like it is in another dimension. It’s a slightly unique hyper live album that is “extremely rough, yet a gigantic spectacle.” “What if ALIVE Part 4” has arrived in its 30th year, and the best part of this work is the actual experience of “What if ALIVE Part 4 could have been realized.” At the time of the reunion, everyone in the KISS Army believed, “Next is ALIVE Part 4!” and had no doubts. However, as you know, the sequel never came out. “ALIVE IV”, which was realized in later years, was an orchestra collaboration after Ace’s departure, and it could not be denied that it was a deviation from the “sequel to the ALIVE series with the original four members” that fans had dreamed of. This work is exactly that “What if ALIVE Part 4”. The recording time is 53 and a half minutes, which is in line with the broadcast time frame, and it is far from a full show, but rather, that is why it has a strong sense of continuity with “ALIVE!” and “ALIVE II”. The set is also a great hits that summarizes the “golden 70’s” that is typical of “ALIVE”, but it is actually a little different from just a classic collection. Let’s organize the set contents here. KISS (3 songs)・Deuce/100,000 Years/Black Diamond DESTROYER (3 songs)・Shout It Out Loud/Detroit Rock City/Beth Others (6 songs)・DRESSED TO KILL: C’mon And Love Me/Rock And Roll All Nite・DYNASTY: I Was Made for Lovin’ You/2,000 Man (★)・Others: Let Me Go, Rock ‘N’ Roll/Love Gun *Note: Songs marked with “★” are not included in the latest masterpiece pro shot “TOLEDO 1997 PRO-SHOT UPGRADE”. …and it looks like this. “2,000 Man” is what catches my attention. It is a rare song that was played only in limited performances on the “ALIVE/WORLDWIDE Tour”, and is a Rolling Stones cover sung by Ace instead of “New York Groove”. Furthermore, “2,000 Man” and “I Was Made for Lovin’ You” are selections that could not be heard on either “ALIVE!” or “ALIVE II.” Even in this place, the scent of “Moshimo ALIVE Part 4” is drifting. The original four members came together again for the “ALIVE/WORLDWIDE Tour” which excited the whole world with their make-up looks. This work is the highest peak update master of the only remaining FM sound board from the tour that condensed “This is KISS!”, and is the “What if ALIVE Part 4” that fans dreamed of. 30th anniversary since that legendary reunion. This work is the “crystal of a dream” that has finally come true. Stereo soundboard recording of “March 11, 1997 Santiago Performance”. This is the best master of FM broadcasting provided by researchers, and in fact, this is the only FM soundboard of “ALIVE/WORLDWIDE Tour” (the others are all professional shot audio). The sound is completely official grade… no, it’s “official super grade”, and the ensemble is perfectly mixed, and it’s gorgeous enough to stand up to the spectacle of a huge venue. On the other hand, the live performance is fiercely vivid, and the ultra-stereo width panning feels otherworldly. Also included is “2,000 Man,” which was only played a dozen times on tour. It is the fruit of a dream that embodies “What if ALIVE Part 4 with the four original members had been realized?” Velodromo del Estadio Nacional, Santiago, Chile 11th March 1997 STEREO SBD (53:30) 1.
