I know this was released to coincide with the Alive Worldwide tour, but the 4 unreleased tracks don't sound like 70's recordings to my ear. I just listened to Take Me, and it sure sounds like Paul's voice in the 90's as opposed to the 70's. His voice seemed a lot more raw and aggressive in the early days.

"Take Me" Sean Delaney, Stanley previously unreleased, recorded in Los Angeles, California in 1977
Just wondering if anyone else knew anything more about the 4 unreleased live recordings.

I mean, old news....but yah, the idea of them being 'lost' recordings from the 70's was total horseshit.

They never even played Two Timer live in the 70s. Total new recording.
Let Me Know is legit with new 1996 Gene vocals, the Paul vocals are vintage.
Room Service is a 75 sound check with new 1996 Paul vocals.
Take Me is from Japan 77 with new 1996 Paul vocals.

Re: Kiss - You Wanted The Best... Question
From what I remember the vocals on the “unreleased” tracks are from the 90’s … KISS thought fans were so stupid we’d fall it but we didn’t.

Huh. The shit you learn almost 30 years later. I wasn't a big enough fan to care that they were faked, so I certainly wasn't listening hard enough to notice. Not even sure when the last time I listened to those tracks was, I know I had that CD when it was released, but sold it off with a bunch of other CDs in the early 2000s and just recently rebought it cheap.

Pretty sure all the guitar signals were run through new updated guitar rigs too.
Re: Kiss - You Wanted The Best... Question
I never understood why they pulled that, would have been way better : NEW 1996 RE-RECORDINGS or something like that but they tried to fool us and .....they failed
they even denied it on goldmine magazine!

Yeah pretty well known they were re-recorded. I like them though! Prefer them more than firehouse on alive.

I recall this one being the most obvious giveaway. Sounded nothing like '70s Paul.

Re: Kiss - You Wanted The Best... Question
Every KISS interview since Gene's appearance on the Mike Douglas Show has been the same. As a kid, just seeing them on TV was cool because of the mystique. As an adult, they have said the same bullshit for 45+ years. The Jay Leno bit was horrendous.

Re: Kiss - You Wanted The Best... Question
At least they were somewhat humble in that interview after some lean years. He was always an unfunny nerd but after 97 Gene just turned into an insufferable blowhard asshole.
