This Day In KISS History

A great "THIS DAY IN KISSTORY" from KISSONLINE.com today, as it was on this day in 1996 that KISS Unplugged was released. I still love that show. I remember watching it on Halloween way back in 1995. It was so cool to see Pete and Ace back with the guys and I thought it sounded fantastic (and still does). A nice twist on some classic KISS tracks and they played with newfound energy and had great charisma. This really re-launched KISS.

On the Kissology Volume Three: 1992–2000 DVD set, which was released December 18, 2007, you can find the entire concert video including five previously unreleased songs: "Hard Luck Woman" (with Paul Stanley on vocals), "Heaven's on Fire", "Spit", "C'mon and Love Me" and the infamous country version of "God of Thunder".

Check out more below:

"On March 12, 1996, the KISS MTV Unplugged CD and VHS Video were released in the US. KISS MTV Unplugged was recorded August 9, 1995 at Sony Music Studios in New York City. The majority of the CD/VHS features Paul, Gene, Eric Singer and Bruce Kulick. Ace Frehley and Peter Criss join Paul and Gene for '2000 Man' and 'Beth'. All six members close out the CD/VHS with 'Nothin' To Lose' and 'Rock and Roll All Nite'. MTV originally broadcast KISS Unplugged on October 31, 1995."
