KISS

In the late 1970s, KISS was riding high on the waves of their explosive popularity, which was solidified by their iconic 'Alive!' album. They’d released 'Love Gun' in 1977, showcasing their rock prowess, but by the time they hit the stage for this live performance in November 1978 (captured in 'Kiss - Ace Frehley - New York Groove'), they were in the process of transitioning with 'Dynasty'. This tour was a hallmark of their career, demonstrating their electrifying stage presence and the theatricality that set them apart in rock history. Notably, Ace Frehley’s solo track 'New York Groove' became one of the standout moments in their live shows, reflecting both the band's hard-rocking sound and Frehley’s undeniable charm. The energy here isn’t just about the music; it’s about a cultural phenomenon that had fans captivated and continues to resonate today.
