Kiss/MI,USA 1974 & more

KISS in 1974, who set out to conquer the world with “Messenger from Hell”. Here is a shocking video that allows you to witness the four of them at the dawn of their age. This work contains two rare videos filmed in 1974. The main focus is on a one-camera professional shot of the “Detroit performance on April 13, 1974”, with an additional 8mm film of the “New York performance on January 26” as a bonus. Speaking of 1974, it was a time when “Messenger from Hell” and “Cry of Hell” were sent out in succession, and tours were also changed depending on the time. First, let’s take a bird’s-eye view of the overall picture and understand the position of the show. “KISS Tour” ・January 26th-February 21st: North America #1 (7 performances) ←★This work bonus★《February 18th “Messenger from Hell” released》 ・March 22nd-August 4th: North America #2 (64 performances) ←★This work main★《August “Scream from Hell” production》 ・September 13th-October 4th: North America #3 (13 performances) “HOTTER THAN HELL Tour” ・October 16th-21st: North America #4a (5 performances)《October 22nd “Scream from Hell” released》 ・October 22nd-December 31st: North America #4b (37 performances) This is KISS in 1974. The main performance in Detroit of this work was the 12th performance of “North America #2”, two months after the release of “Messenger from Hell”. Speaking of “Detroit in 1974”, enthusiastic collectors may recall the soundboard album “DETROIT 1974 1ST SHOW”, but this work is a different performance. In fact, KISS performed six performances in 1974 alone. It’s a good opportunity, so let’s organize it here as well. “KISS Tour” April 7 “DETROIT 1974 1ST SHOW” April 12: Michigan Palace April 13: Michigan Palace ←★ This work ★ September 28: Michigan Palace “HOTTER THAN HELL Tour” December 20: Michigan Palace December 21: Michigan Palace In this way, this work is the third Detroit. It was also the second day of the two-day performance. This work, which was shot at such a show, is a shocking video. It is a phantom professional shot that was recently released on the Internet and deleted in an instant. However, it is a little different from the professional shots that you generally imagine. The staff filmed it for reference purposes, as it was shot from the back of the venue with a single camera, and at first glance it looks like an audience. Moreover, each song is not full, but there are cuts in the middle, and even with nine songs, it’s about 30 minutes long. At this point, I wonder, “Is it the 8mm that’s popular these days?”, but each cut is long for that. The sound board is also solid, and even if one song is not complete, it’s long enough to immerse yourself in it. The origin alone is shocking, but the contents are even more amazing. Peter shakes his head youthfully as if he’s going to lose his neck, and Space Ace, who is supposed to be from the planet Gendal, is still in leather. “Firehouse” is also a scribbly bell that rings instead of a siren (though the fire spewing is done well). In the midst of all this, it’s impactful that Paul and Gene are almost the same as they are now (although they are dressed a little lightly). Following the Detroit footage is a bonus video of the New York performance. This is clearly 8mm, and even with three songs, it’s about two and a half minutes long. However, the value is not inferior to the main Detroit footage, and (as you can see from the schedule above) you can enjoy the first stage in 1974 with a lot of close-ups. It’s just shocking. The press was postponed because there were cuts even within one song, but the vintage content and high video quality are not half-baked. The “DETROIT & LARGO 1975 (Shades 1568)” that I introduced the other day was also amazing, but it is not comparable to this work in terms of value and impact. A miraculous excavation video that allows you to stare at the four people who have just started running for about 30 minutes. A one-camera pro shot of the “Detroit performance on April 13, 1974”. It was a one-camera from the back of the venue, probably filmed by the staff for reference, and there are cuts within one song, but the video quality is excellent, and the sound is also a sound board. The length of one cut is much longer than the so-called 8mm, so you can immerse yourself in it. The youthful appearance of Peter shaking his head and Ace in leather is extremely rare, and “Firehouse” uses bells instead of sirens, which is unique to the very early days (Gene’s fire spewing is well done). In addition, 8mm footage of the New York performance on January 26, 1974, which was the first stage, is also included as a bonus. It is a shocking and rare video right after the debut.
