It is really nice and it is below…Īnd below is the back cover and it has 16 marvelous tracks and what is really cool is what the band played. It consists of numerous snapshots of that evening both of the show and candid behind the scene shots.

The set also comes with a full size poster. In reading one of many Kiss books I have over the years, the reason for the lack of Gatefold was the label went cheap and didn’t think there was money to be made at the extra cost of a Gatefold…oh they are so wrong. Mine is on 180-Gram vinyl and is a double LP, but sadly the band missed out on doing a Gatefold. The version I have was part of the 40th Anniversary Re-Issues of the Kiss albums. Let us talk about the Vinyl copy I have since that is what I am reviewing.

I have the vinyl and the Kissology DVD’s which includes the show plus some behind the scenes video. Thankfully it was captured on video for MTV, an album and even released on DVD. And to make it even cooler, the final songs of the night, Eric and Bruce came back out and all 6 members and former members played together for the very first time. I remember watching it and getting chills up and down my arm. Totally awesome!! The crowd went nuts and so did I. The crowd was treated to songs by both Ace Frehley and Peter Criss.
And for the “Big” part, the band would bring out two very special guest. The band, which consisted of Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Eric Singer and Bruce Kulick at the time, would come out and do a full acoustic set. In typical Kiss fashion, they had to do it big and let me tell you, they did. Well, around that time MTV came a calling and asked if they wanted to do an episode of MTV Unplugged and the band agreed. Kiss started to play lesser known songs at the audience requests and they seemed to be enjoying themselves. They would even get some special guests to join them and one time Peter Criss showed up and jumped on stage with them. Kiss would go play these and they were all done as acoustic performances. In 1995, the band set out and did these Convention Tours as around this time, Kiss Konventions had started popping up. And with this review, still no studio album. They have been putting out product as we have reviewed it, but yet no studio album. It had been several years since ‘Revenge’. But enough of that garbage, let us get back to the Kisstory. But it was recorded for MTV so didn’t know the right way to label this post. I stuck with ‘Unplugged’ as that is what it says on the spine of the vinyl cover. Welcome back to Kiss Review Series and this time around we will discuss the album ‘Unplugged’ or is it ‘MTV Unplugged’, I wasn’t really sure.
