Note: One of the holy grails of Kiss audio collecting has finally surfaced in 2013! A recording of this show from the Daisy was rumoured to exist decades ago. The rumour was confirmed in collectors circles the 90's sometime, and one song from this show surfaced on the Box Set. But it's taken until 2013 for the rest of the recording to circulate!
Kiss played two sets on the same day. The recording of the second set is incomplete, only three songs were ever recorded (that we know of).
This is a treasure trove for Kiss fans! 'Nothing To Lose' is different and has some different lyrics. The extremely rare 'Life In The Woods' clocks in at well over 8 minutes, including a mid-song jam session where some members of the audience briefly sing along. 'Simple Type' is vastly different to the Wicked Lester version. 'Acrobat' is performed in it's entirity (which includes the first instrumental part (that later became a stand-alone song on the first album), as well as the second part that people often think is 'You're Much Too Young'
The on-stage banter is also a highlight, with Paul, Peter and Gene all engaging with the crowd at various times.
There have been fake versions of this show circulated in the past, which turned out to be other shows from 74 onwards. But this one does seem genuine, because of the setlist, and Peter specifically mentions Amityville during the show.
