The "LOVE GUN Tour" is famous for giving birth to "ALIVE II". A soundboard album that will pour the whole picture into your brain is now available. It will be released as an upgraded master CD that exceeds the video version! The "September 1, 1977 Houston performance" is permanently preserved in this work. This is a newly excavated soundboard recording. Speaking of 1977, it was a time when three tours, "ROCK & ROLL OVER Tour", "LOVE GUN Tour" and "ALIVE II Tour", were switched depending on the time, and we have introduced soundboard albums for each of them. In order to avoid confusion, let's first approach the position of this work in light of the activity schedule at that time. “ROCK & ROLL OVER Tour” January 1st - March 7th: North America #1 (38 shows) ←※MSG FEBRUARY 1977 ・March 24th - April 4th: First visit to Japan (10 shows) ←※COMPLETE BUDOKAN 1977 and others “LOVE GUN Tour” July 8th - September 5th: North America #2 (30 shows) ←★HERE★ “ALIVE II Tour” November 15th - December 31st: North America #3 (27 shows) ←※L This is KISS in 1977. “ROCK & ROLL OVER Tour” and “ALIVE II Tour” were tours that spanned the year, but “LOVE GUN Tour” was only in 1977 from start to finish. As mentioned above, this is also the tour that gave birth to “ALIVE II,” so let’s focus on the dates here along with the recording dates. Details of "North America #2 (LOVE GUN Tour)" {June 30th "LOVE GUN" released} July 8th - August 13th (18 shows) * August 16th "SAN FRANCISCO 1977 (SBD)" August 17th - 22nd (4 shows) August 26th: Inglewood show ← * ALIVE II recording date August 27th: Inglewood show ← * ALIVE II recording date August 28th: Inglewood show ← * ALIVE II recording date * September 1st: Houston show ← ★ This work ★ * September 2nd "HOUSTON 1977 2ND NIGHT (video)" & official video * September 4th + 5th "FORT WORTH 1977 (SBD)" {September 13th - 16th "ALIVE II" studio work} ... and so on. Some of the shows in Japan are included in "ALIVE II", but the main focus is on the three consecutive shows in Inglewood. The Houston performance was the "next" concert. This "1977 Houston" was a two-day performance, both of which had professional shots, and are also familiar as the DVDs "HOUSTON 1977 1ST NIGHT" and "2ND NIGHT". This work was recorded on the first day of the two (the official video of "KISSOLOGY" was on the second day, "September 2nd"). This work recorded at such a show is a shocking, highest peak update master. In any case, it is clearer, more vivid, and more dynamic than a professional shot sound. I was surprised by the unprecedented vivid sound of the DVD "HOUSTON 1977 1ST NIGHT", but that is only in the dimension of "as a video sound". To enjoy it as a live album with only sound, it was a bit dumpling-like and the details were rounded. In contrast, the newly excavated soundboard master is clear and clear down to the details of each sound. The contours are also sharp and stand out, and there is no sense of dumplings at all. In particular, the bass is so crisp that you can feel not just one sound, but even the swell and vibration contained in it. Moreover, it is natural. It is not the power raised by forcibly earning sound pressure, nor the vividness forcibly faked by digital processing. It is simply a vivid sound world that can only be achieved by the master freshness that has been beautifully preserved down to the fine details. Once you have experienced this work, even the sound of the wonderful "HOUSTON 1977 1ST NIGHT" can only be felt as a "video tsum". This work is a superb live album that is majestic even with just the sound. Such a super clear sound board depicts a full show that can be said to be the "complete form of ALIVE II". "ALIVE II" was an edited work that cut out the standard songs based on "ALIVE!", but this work allows you to enjoy the full set of one regular session as it is. Although it is already familiar from professional shots, let's repost the set contents here again. LOVE GUN (5 songs) I Stole Your Love / Love Gun / Hooligan (★) / Christine Sixteen / Shock Me Others (12 songs) DESTROYER: Shout It Out Loud / God Of Thunder / Detroit Rock City / Beth ROCK AND ROLL OVER: Take Me (★) / Ladies Room / Makin' Love / I Want You / Calling Dr. Love Others: Firehouse (★) / Black Diamond (★) / Rock And Roll All Nite (★) *Note: The "★" mark indicates a song that could not be heard in "ALIVE II". You can enjoy the full show of "LOVE GUN Tour" with the band potential of "ALIVE II" as it is. This is a complete live album. If the pro shot version is "ALIVE II seen with the eyes", this work is exactly "ALIVE II through". This is a shocking soundboard album because of the related route that has continued to shock collectors around the world. Ultra-clear soundboard recording of "September 1, 1977 Houston Performance". The pro shot is also famous, but this work is not the sound drop, but a completely different newly excavated master. The details of each sound are clear and the contours stand out sharply, and there is no sense of dumplings at all. In particular, the feeling of the bass is not just one sound, but even the swell and vibration amplitude contained therein can be felt. It is a shocking soundboard album worthy of being called "Through Stage Version ALIVE II". The Summit, Houston, TX, USA 1st September 1977 SBD UPGRADE!! (77:14) 01. Pre-show 02. I Stole Your Love 03.
