WICKED LESTER (pre Kiss) – The Unreleased Remastered Tapes *Only at 0dayrox*

Now we are bringing a great one for collectors and KISS fans: the album recorded in the ’70s by WICKED LESTER, the Paul Stanley & Gene Simmons band before they became KISS; “The Unreleased Remastered Tapes“.
The group was formed in 1970 in New York under the name “Rainbow”. Two notable members were bassist Gene Klein and rhythm guitarist Paul Eisen. In 1971, the band changed their name to Wicked Lester and recorded an album for Epic Records, which was never officially released. The recording of this session appeared in a contraband form / bootleg called “The Original Wicked Lester Session”.
But… when KISS was putting their 5-disc release ‘The Box Set’ in 2001, the original plan was to release the entire Wicked Lester album on there. That idea was scrapped and only a WICKED LESTER songs appeared into ‘The Box Set’.
However, the entire album was remastered before minds were changed. We now have the complete album in the best quality EVER!

KISS – Destroyer [45th anniversary Super Deluxe Edition 4xCD] (2021)

Get up! Everybody gonna move their feet and leave their seat for a new deluxe edition of KISS’ signature studio album ”Destroyer”, available November 19. Following the success of the double concert album Alive! in 1975, which introduced the world at large to the hard-rockin’ quartet in black and white facepaint and out-there stage costumes, ”Destroyer” was polished to perfection by producer Bob Ezrin. The group added layers of unique craft to these songs, from string sections to sound effects – and Ezrin’s unconventional methods (later compared to “musical boot camp” by lead singer Paul Stanley) enhanced their musicality.
This “Destroyer [45th anniversary Super Deluxe Edition 4xCD]” is packed with audio extras – many previously unreleased – and plenty of ephemera for KISS Kollectors.
Alongside the remastered album, three bonus discs offer demos from Stanley and Simmons’ archives, a jam-packed offering of outtakes and single edits (including a new acoustic mix of “Beth” and the long-coveted “Ain’t None of Your Business,” the first song cut during the album sessions), and a previously unreleased live concert taken from the Olympia Theatre in Paris…

KISS – The Solo Albums ; Paul Stanley [Japan SHM-CD remastered Limited Numbered] Out Of Print

These have been requested several times; the 1978 KISS ‘solo albums’ from each band member in its Japanese SHM-CD pressing. Many of you reported finding fake SHM-CD rips all over the net, so here’s the real deal, the numbered limited edition of each including full artwork.
Just like Ace, Paul Stanley knew that his strength was in straight forward, guitar-driven rock n’ roll, so even as a solo artist on “Paul Stanley” he didn’t stray very far from the formula that made KISS so successful. “Tonight You Belong To Me” and “Move On” start the album off with a nice one-two punch…

PAUL STANLEY’S SOUL STATION – Now And Then (2021)

Kiss co-founder & frontman PAUL STANLEY has spent the last few years developing a project close to his heart. ‘Soul Station’ is a band gathering some of today’s leading musicians to pay tribute to the greatest artists and songs from the R&B and soul catalog to keep this vital music current. While a surprise to many, Stanley’s early pivotal roots in this music has quietly turned this passion into a celebrated touring and recording band.
Stanley’s 15-piece ensemble group has toured the U.S. and Japan, and recently recorded an album of nine classic soul songs and five new original songs. To be released tomorrow, here’s PAUL STANLEY’s SOUL STATION “Now And Then”.
