CD Reviews

We didn't need this and here is why..
Christopher Gazzo | 05/21/2008
(2 out of 5 stars)

"The 'Playlist Plus' is supposedly a new series that tries to bring 3 discs worth of material covering certain artists. The problem is not the music, but at this point they are all rather superflous. If you're familiar with "The Millenium Collection" series it is EXACTLY the same as this, just collected all in one place with a new cover, as opposed to 3 separate volumes. I mean, with approximately 10 hits collections already on the market, did Kiss really need another that covers no new ground? Additionally, the 3 discs are nowhere near full as they could have easily sliced this into 2 discs OR added more songs.



This collection's 3 CDs devote 12 songs to each decade from the 70's-90's, each disc representing one decade. If you were a fan of Kiss can you imagine trying to chop down what they accomplished in the 70's to 12 songs? Well, that's what disc 1 tries to do here.



That is reason enough not to purchase this set. The 2 disc collection "Kiss Gold" gives you 4 more songs for a total of 40 on two solid, packed to the gills CDs of prime classic music from the 'original band' for about 10-15 bucks less. Be aware, however, that the "Gold" collection stops in the early 80's. Either way, I wouldn't go here."
No New Material... Again

"What a waste of time. Paul Stanley keeps saying people don't want new KISS music, but what makes the record company think we want the same songs over and over again, but in a different order? This is a waste. KISS, put out something new or hang it up already!"
Zzzzz...Universal, again, tries to cash in on KISS rehash...

"I gave this cd set 5 stars only becuase...it's KISS!!! It's not even a good intro. compilation for the band, with the exception of disc #2, where, it does bring together a very good collection of KISS songs from the 80's. Otherwise, this set doesn't give justice to what KISS offered in the 70's and just throws out there some songs from the 90's--but doens't really include the best from Revenge or Carnival of Souls..and the could have omitted the Unplugged tracks to do so.



If YOU WANT THE BEST of KISS, get the following on cd and dvd:



The ALIVE CD Box Set (Which has ALIVE I,II, II and the REAL ALIVE IV (The millenium concert)



The KISSOLOGY DVDS Vol. I, II and III



CREATURES OF THE NIGHT CD

REVENGE CD

CARNIVAL OF SOULS CD

ROCK N. ROLL OVER CD and

HOTTER THAN HELL CD



KISS EXPOSED DVD



KISS EXTREME CLOSE UP / CONFIDENTIAL DVD



KISS KILLERS (Import CD)--The "new" tracks on them are some of the best KISS studio songs they recorded with ERIC CARR on the drums.



KISS ACE FREHLEY & PAUL STANLEY 1978 SOLO CDS



for KISS solo stuff, get:



ACE FREHLEY--FREHEY'S COMET, SECOND SIGHTING AND TROUBLE WALKING CDS



PETER CRISS -- CRISS: CAT #1 (Hard to find cuase out of print) cd



UNION--SELF TITLED and THE BLUE ROOM CDs (Bruce Kulick's band after he was in KISS)



PAUL STANLEY - LIVE TO WIN CD



ESP LIVE DVD (The ERIC SINGER Project LIVE in Australia: with BRUCE KULICK, JOHN CORABI (UNION, MOTLEY CRUE) and CHUCK GARRICK (ALICE COOPER'S current bassist).



OK, I listed like 20 cds/dvds, but there's like about 40-50 KISS releases total out there...These are the best KISS has had to offer in their 35+year carreer.



Check em out!
