Description

Artist:   KISS

Title:   “KISS – Paul Stanley”

Label:   CASABLANCA RECORDS ~ NBLP 7123.  Original stereo pressing. 

Year:  1978

Condition: 

Album is STILL SEALED in sparkling clean original factory shrink-wrap.  Shrink wrap is fully intact except at corner tips.  Not a cut-out.  Overall a gorgeous piece that has never seen a stylus!

NOTE:  This album came from the extensive personal collection of the former owner of a chain of retail music stores who retired from the business in the early 80’s.  The albums have been stored virtually untouched and unplayed since that time in a climate controlled, non-smoking environment.  We are in the process of selling many investment grade coloured vinyl LPs, promos, sealed LPs, and other rare collector items from the collection over the coming months.  If you insist on MINT albums, you will not be disappointed.

Track Listing:

  • Tonight You Belong to Me
  • Move On
  • Ain’t Quite Right
  • Wouldn’t You Like to Know Me
  • Take Me Away (Together As One)
  • It’s Alright
  • Hold Me, Touch Me (Think of Me When We’re Apart)
  • Love In Chains
  • Goodbye

Review:

“Paul Stanley's 1978 solo album was the most Kiss-like of the four, sounding more like an official band release rather than a solo outing.  But this isn't necessarily a bad thing -- Stanley had become a seasoned hard rock songwriter by this point, churning out some of Kiss' best material ("Love Gun," "Detroit Rock City," "I Want You," etc.), and wisely stuck to his winning formula on Paul Stanley.  With the help of studio musicians, as well as guitarist Bob Kulick (who was almost an original member of Kiss, and brother of future Kiss replacement guitarist Bruce) and Rod Stewart/Vanilla Fudge drummer Carmine Appice, Stanley's album is on par with Ace Frehley's as far as consistency is concerned.  A couple of epic compositions (by Kiss standards) are highlights -- "Tonight You Belong to Me" and "Take Me Away (Together as One)" -- as are the more straightforward tracks "Ain't Quite Right," "Wouldn't You Like to Know Me?," "It's Alright," and "Goodbye."  While his other Kiss bandmates took more chances with their solo records (with varying results), Stanley's album is more or less what a new Kiss album released in 1978 would have sounded like.”
