1-Kiss Remasters 2014 on CD in mini vinyl jackets, 2-Wicked Lester (Black vinyl)- 3 -All the 70's demos of all 4 members, 4 -Psycho Circus with as many demos as possible of all 4 members 5 - remixed Crazy Nights with leftover songs and demos. 6 Hotter than Hell remixed, 7 Unmasked remixed (with demos), 8 Dynasty remixed (with demos).
100% Wicked Lester vinyl. Original cover art, modern brown inner sleeve, brown splatter vinyl. Sold! I want a repress of Trouble Walkin’ I really want a “Beatles Anthology” type Kiss documentary. I want an all encompassing, in depth documentary with unseen or rare clips and interviews. I want the Kiss doc to top them all. The good, the bad, everybody involved......
100% agree that the soundtrack of the Original KISS MEETS THE PHANTOM OF THE PARK is superior! @38:20 LOL. I always wish WAXWORK Records would put out a PHANTOM SOUNDTRACK, with the cheesy Wonder Woman-eque 70's TV backing soundtrack. That freaking movie runs through my DNA. Such a nerd.... Great episode!! Have a good week.
A box set of the tour books would be nice, maybe just the base version of each tour and then a complete set with all variations. Have to be different, like anniversary or something to not devalue original releases.
Andrew I love the Billboard mag. On your top 5 guys...I would package the Eddie Kramer demos and Wicked Lester together. I also think the Promos package was a great idea. And the idea for a official unreleased live shows archive is a must. So there's three on my list in no particular order. for the last two I would have to go with something that none of you mentioned which would be one I think would be cool to be done and the other that was captured but lost in a fire. Of course the one lost in a fire would be the 74 Winterland show and the made up one would be a diecast detailed version have the model van. Great show guys always entertaining always a fan
Demos and Wicked Lester box set! Trouble Walking reissue on vinyl as well as second sighting on colored vinyl. Kiss Cereal. Best of unreleased live album “live demon boots”
Won't happen, but I'd love to have a Deluxe/Resurrected version of Music From "The Elder" that includes all original spoken word recordings edited into the appropriate spots. Any sound effects..anything. Make it into the original vision and then include any demo or bonus material available.
Love to have Animalize Live Blu Ray and Vinyl. Originals would be great too. I also think there should be a Kiss Alive "Goodbye" Blu Ray and cd/vinyl from End of Road tour.
LOL! "And I'm going to sit your G.I.Joes and make them watch the KISS concert!" Awesome! I sure hope SOV releases a colored vinyl for DP. I love my original, but all these new releases sound not only incredible but superior as well. I think a Red & Blue colored vinyl of Alive 2 would be great as well.
Man, I hate to say this but......the one thing I was the least enthused about in your lists was the Wicked Lester boxset thing. Sorry Jason LOL Which isn't to say I wouldn't like it or want it! But yeah, not the most exciting thing out of that list to me. Everything else you guys listed would be instant buys! I would also pay good $$$ for a re-release of "Music From The Elder" that contained bonus material like the between-song dialogue parts that were omitted from the final release. Also, if Figures Toy Company could make a 12" Eric Carr figure, I have had a very nice custom for years now but to buy a proper "official" one would be a dream come true. Great show guys!
Great show guys! very cool ideas by all of you! I'd love to see a pro shot asylum show! I would also love to see a kiss in japan box set! It would include all the shows, video, on cd and vinyl!
Great episode! I would like to see kiss official jewelry limited edition watches for men and ladies. And kiss official charm bracelets would be cool. And also in the future perhaps a 50th anniversary figurine, statue, or plaque for display cases 😊
1. Kiss mini LP cd's 2014 remasters with all the extras 2. Animalize live and uncensored box set 3. official Barry Levine photos Kiss hard cover book 4. New updated Kissology with new material and all the music videos 5. Kiss originals box set
100% agree on the Love Gun stage- deluxe version. I would pay serious money for that. Please also post the link to the model Dynasty stage you mentioned during the show.
My top 5... 5. Unreleased tracks compilation album 4. Promo album box set 3. Animaluze live uncensored vinyl 2. wicked lester vinyl 1. Originals I& II box set
You could take the "Kiss Meets The Phantom'" box a step further and make a soundtrack album, it'd just be a greatest hits really but a cool opportunity to make something new that's 70's
I luv ya Jason, but that's a big fat NO to the Wicked Lester box. (ugh!). I agree with the Originals I/II box set. And, though this was discussed, but didn't make your group top 5, I'd agree with reissues of EACH album with bonus tracks/disc akin to the Love Gun re-issue. Thanks for the lively discussion.
To Jason, there is a massive argument going on amongst some people I know. Which is, what band had the best 6 year run? Is it Van Halen 78-84? KISS 73-79? Led Zeppelin 69-75? Beatles? Stones? Etc... For me, yes Zeppelin's albums were all on the Billboard chart at the same time, were selling out stadiums and setting attendance records nightly. But, KISS had 15, yes 15 official releases from first album to Dynasty. Then add in all the merchandise that was sold. So, I guess add album sales, concert revenue and merchandise. My question is, which band financially did the best?... Thanks.
I was also at the live to win show Jason! I waited forever for him to come out,but he never did while I was there! the whole band did,but no paul! Gene was in bham, earlier that day!
Can’t believe no one said a re-press of Sonic Boom on the same colored vinyl they were originally put out on. So ridiculous we can’t get that album on vinyl without paying hundreds of dollars. It’s long overdue.
My #1 wish would be for an official release of the audio bootlegs onto albums of all tours comprised of the best soundboard material recorded. I love live recordings, and would absolutely want 2 or 3 more versions of Alive 1,2,3, and so on. Different audio from all tours and suddenly we have 3 or 4 live versions of all tours, would set the world on fire. For example, wouldn't it be great to own another version of HTH, Alive, Destroyer tours, professionally put together, with the quality of the official releases, and we would have more concerts on vinyl with all new packaging? It would be a great world!! Not so much with Wicked Lester though.
As I begin to watch the episode 2 things come immediately to mind. 1st: Wicked Lester Deluxe Box Set. 2nd: The Originals Deluxe Box Set. Both available on Vinyl and CD.
The only issue I had was that most everything was from the vinyl side. No mention of any toys or other things. It was all media, which is a safe play on your part. I guess it is easiest to gravitate to that, but the toy microphone packaged with a guitar and amplifier and even a plastic disc to spin on the turntable. And yes, these "new" releases are hurting the value of originals or limited versions. I saw a 2014 Double Platinum sitting on ebay for $214.99 and not selling. The value is dropping.
Also , I would love for someone to do a super deluxe edition release on blue ray of "Trick or Treat " 1986 , and LP releases of the "never to young to Die " and KMTP Soundtracks !!!
I have always wondered why none of the home videos have been released on Blu Ray? Maybe it would not be worth the money, like Andrew was talking about with Phantom Of The Park, but I would like to have Blu Rays as opposed to dvds.
Love the show but I'm with Joe..... a LOT of Kiss merch just looks cheap and rushed. There's very little thought put in to it. You guys mentioned Metallica early in the episode.... their current re-release deluxe versions of their albums is the watermark for merch imo.
i agree with everything you said here....especially the part about agreeing with **ME**. and yes...the metallica record box sets are incredible. perfectly executed.
Official 12" Mego style Vinnie Vincent & Eric Carr dolls would be nice

100% Wicked Lester vinyl. Original cover art, modern brown inner sleeve, brown splatter vinyl. Sold!
I want a repress of Trouble Walkin’
I really want a “Beatles Anthology” type Kiss documentary. I want an all encompassing, in depth documentary with unseen or rare clips and interviews. I want the Kiss doc to top them all. The good, the bad, everybody involved......

I TOTALLY AGREE! i think it would sell !! There is a demand i think from the huge KISS fanbase alone
The 5 promos is an amazing idea, and jason; definatly the wicked Lester demos/songs. You have to have that because thats the genesis of kiss!! C mon!
Love to have Animalize Live Blu Ray and Vinyl. Originals would be great too. I also think there should be a Kiss Alive "Goodbye" Blu Ray and cd/vinyl from End of Road tour.
Action figures is my main interest so the figures/stage was my favorite idea, though a few things like that exist already besides the McFarland sets.
guitarandpiano22 go to KISS Kustom ART on Facebook/Instagram to see life size busts and 2ft tall figures- you’ll freak!
LOL! "And I'm going to sit your G.I.Joes and make them watch the KISS concert!" Awesome! I sure hope SOV releases a colored vinyl for DP. I love my original, but all these new releases sound not only incredible but superior as well. I think a Red & Blue colored vinyl of Alive 2 would be great as well.
Sorry Jason no to the Wicked Lester set. I agree with the other post that suggested a deluxe book with all of the tour books.
another one in the 'NO' column for wicked lester. poor jason.
Man, I hate to say this but......the one thing I was the least enthused about in your lists was the Wicked Lester boxset thing. Sorry Jason LOL Which isn't to say I wouldn't like it or want it!

Great show guys! very cool ideas by all of you! I'd love to see a pro shot asylum show! I would also love to see a kiss in japan box set! It would include all the shows, video, on cd and vinyl!
I’m with Jason- WICKED LESTER BOX SET!!
2. Animalize LIVE Uncensored DVD/LP combo
3. KISS Meets the Phantom DVD
Great episode! I would like to see kiss official jewelry limited edition watches for men and ladies. And kiss official charm bracelets would be cool. And also in the future perhaps a 50th anniversary figurine, statue, or plaque for display cases 😊
Thumbs up from me. Peace out from the southern tip of Vancouver Island, B.C. Canada.

ugh.
You could take the "Kiss Meets The Phantom'" box a step further and make a soundtrack album, it'd just be a greatest hits really but a cool opportunity to make something new that's 70's

David R correct. a **BIG** no on wicked lester.
and thanks for watching. we dig the support.

I agree with Jason, def wicked Lester stuff I don't care about vinyl but def cd, book etc...
My #1 wish would be for an official release of the audio bootlegs onto albums of all tours comprised of the best soundboard material recorded. I love live recordings, and would absolutely want 2 or 3 more versions of Alive 1,2,3, and so on.

And my #2 is immediately mentioned. LOL!!!!
Yes Jason it is my #1. Kiss can take my money now. Period. How could any Kiss fan not want it???
I legit would love to have some reissues of both the VVI records. Have Bobby Rock work on them. Keep Vinnie away!! :)
The only issue I had was that most everything was from the vinyl side. No mention of any toys or other things. It was all media, which is a safe play on your part.

I thought that Eric Carr's 1st performance with the band at the Palladium should of been on Kissology 2!
Love the show. Can you guys put up links to the stuff you show so other fans can find it? thanks.
Also , I would love for someone to do a super deluxe edition release on blue ray of "Trick or Treat " 1986 , and LP releases of the "never to young to Die " and KMTP Soundtracks !!!
I have always wondered why none of the home videos have been released on Blu Ray? Maybe it would not be worth the money, like Andrew was talking about with Phantom Of The Park, but I would like to have Blu Rays as opposed to dvds.
I'll see Jason's Wicked Lester idea and raise him a New Studio Follow up to The Edler Album " Return of the Edler " !!!
When you guys order from Amazon.de which of the shipping options do you use?
Only phantom of the park on DVD I've seen is on the kissology I believe
I want the not so muddy version of hotter than hell released.....its sad when the demos sound better
Great episode....
How about 8 Tracks reissue from Creatures on......
Love the show but I'm with Joe..... a LOT of Kiss merch just looks cheap and rushed. There's very little thought put in to it. You guys mentioned Metallica early in the episode.... their current re-release deluxe versions of their albums is the watermark for merch imo.
i agree with everything you said here....especially the part about agreeing with **ME**. and yes...the metallica record box sets are incredible. perfectly executed.
Go Wicked Lester Box.....
