February 24, 2022 Destroyer
Episode 19: Destroyer
On March 15th 1976 KISS unleashed their magnum opus, an album that might as well be considered a greatest hits before it was even released. Destroyer was the album that KISS was looking for. An album that truly represented themselves as artists, it took what they were doing live and finally captured that spirit on vinyl. With producer and song writer on the album Bob Ezrin brought out parts from each band members that they didn't know they had.
This episode we look at the album as a whole. We look at each song track by track, we pick what other singles could have be used for radio, rank the album cover and the album with what has been done on the show so far. This also wraps up the 45th Anniversary Super Deluxe Box Set series as well. Nick. Nikko, and Rob will take you through the city streets of Detroit Rock City and beyond as we look at Destroyer!

Episode 18:
Destroyer 45: Live In Paris 1976
Part 3 of our look at the Super Deluxe Box Set that is Destroyer 45th Anniversary. On this episode Nick, Nikko and Rob take a look at the... well... you know. The Paris disk. This was the big audio item in the box that had a lot of people talking when it was first announced, after we found out what it was, and after we all heard it... so yeah. This is going to be one of those episodes. What do we think of the end result..? I think you kinda already know.
Here are the facts May 22nd 1976 KISS takes the stage at 3PM, as the evening slot was already filled by comedian Jerry Lewis. This show is very well known in the bootleg circles as Stoned In Paris. What is the version we got in the box, Soundboard recording, a bootleg even better that SIP? Find out and see? This is KISS LIVE IN PARIS!
