KISS

By November 1983, KISS was on the Lick It Up World Tour, celebrating their album 'Lick It Up,' which had been released just a couple of months prior, in September that year. This marked a significant shift for the band, as it was the first album to feature them without their iconic makeup, signaling a new era. In this Essen, Germany concert on November 10, 1983, fans were treated to an energetic performance that showcased Vinnie Vincent's vibrant guitar work, adding a fresh dynamic to their classic hits. It's fascinating how this live recording captures the band in a transitional phase, embracing change while still delivering the high-energy rock 'n' roll for which they were known. KISS thrives on theatricality, and it's electrifying to witness that live atmosphere, reflecting both nostalgia and evolution.
