Tres discos de éxito moderado. Un disco en directo que arrasa en ventas. Otros tres discos de éxito moderado. La opción parecía clara: otro disco en directo. Y eso hicieron los Kiss.Usaron canciones de los últimos discos tocadas en directo (hubo trampa, ya que algunas fueron grabadas en las tomas de sonido previas al concierto y luego se le añadió el sonido del público). El directo procede de Los Ángeles, aunque tuvieron que rellenar con varias canciones grabadas en un directo en Japón. Y como tampoco rellenaron las cuatro caras de un doble LP, la última cara tiene cinco canciones en estudio.
En fin, no es el primer Alive, eso seguro. Pero no está mal. Las canciones nuevas están bien (Rocket Ride es de las mejores) y las canciones están tomadas de discos clásicos de Kiss. Yo tengo este disco en CD desde hace mucho tiempo y es muy cantoso en la colección de CDs que tengo al tener una de esas horribles cajas dobles que ocupaban tanto.
Three moderately successful albums. A live album that blows in sales. Another three moderately successful albums. The choice seemed clear: another live album. And that's what Kiss did.
They used the songs from the last three albums played live (there was some minor cheating, as some tracks were recorded at pre-concert sound check and then adding the sound of the audience). The live takes come from Los Angeles, though they had to fill with several live tracks recorded in Japan. And haven't filled the four sides of the double LP, they added a side D with five songs in recorded in studio.
Well, it is not the first Alive, that's for sure. But it in not a bad double LP. The new songs are good (Rocket Ride is the best) and the live recorded songs are taken from Kiss classic albums. I have this album on CD for a long time and is very flashy in my collection of CDs that I own having one of those ugly 'fatboy boxes' that occupied a lot of room.

If you want to listen ALIVE II.
