A few things today...thanks to my Long time customers. ( Magnus, Tomas, Fabio, Flavio, Vidar, Baard, Ketil, Fredrik, Len Diaz, Marcus, Curtis Allen, Anthony Guffey, Nick Hatton, Tony Maher, and many many others!) I am a huge KISS fan & I really enjoy helping others to complete their KISS Vinyl Collections!

A Quick work about another indespensible KISS website! Everything KISS

This site is a pretty good refrence point for all KISS collecting fanatics. Great Pics & really interesting Stuff...Check it out!!

Now, todays Album:

KISS SUPERSTAR / HOTTER THAN METAL
Yes, these are the same album with different packaging. Both Albums contain Sides One & Two of KISS Alive repeated in original order.
HOTTER THAN METAL is a single sleeve printed in Holland, with the identical Superstar print Vinyl from Italy. The best part is the Four Cover Pictures include Eric Carr in Full Fur and a Rather Drunk Looking Ace Frehley. This is one of the easier KISS imports to pick up. A copy in good condition should cost around $20. This is mostly for KISS purists who need to have everything.
KISS SUPERSTAR is a sweet Italian gateflod style pressing of this release. The cover features KISS in what appears to be the same photo-shoot as the cover to Hotter than Metal. Great details in Ace & Eric Carr's costumes. (KISS should have changed all four costumes, instead of having Ace, Paul & Gene in dynasty costumes with the new member.) The booklet is awesome. It features rare & famos KISS pics. It is too bad it is in Italian. I would love to be able to read it. This is a bit harder to find than HTM...A mint copy will cost $25 to $40 dollars. If you choose either of the two, this is the one to Collect.
Thanks for reading & Next Post KISS - The Originals!!!!!!!!!!!

  2. I'm glad I found this blog! I've been a KISS fan since I was 10 or 11 ('88-89) and have just recently begun building my KISS vinyl collection. Of course I once owned all of them on tape and CD, but now that music has become intangible (or at least the media is), I find myself compelled to buy the vinyl versions. Just got a nice Japanese copy of Asylum.

  3. cool blog...i'm a fan!
    are you going to cover the topic of "misprints" or "mislabeled"?
    for instance i have a mint hotter than hell blue label...but the labels are switched...side A is on bide B and side B is on side A.
    are glitches like this common?
    just curious. keep up the good work!
