I have to say this pressing sounds pretty amazing.
No pops and very quiet and sounds better than expected!
Open one up and keep one sealed.- has anyone ever seen a copy with "RCA Music Service" jacket Kiss - Kiss and Kiss - Kiss vinyl? they are both from 76-77 but in almost 50 years it's certainly possible someone swapped the jacket+vinyl from other copies.
- I’ve got the peach/salmon colored version, bought it right around the time you’d see normies in your local independents. Can’t speak for any others but mine sounds really good. The problem with a lot of boots is they sound tinny, thin, and quiet, but this one sounds great, in case, you know…

I have this same barcode with the same matrix/runout but on regular black vinyl. Does anyone know if this was a release that came out the same year as this one? Sounds ace —no pun intended—.referencing Kiss (LP, Album, Reissue, 180 Gram) B0019816-01
nice and punchy wonder if ron cut this from tape or digital files? sounds good either way !!!!!! 5 stars for mereferencing Kiss (LP, Album, Test Pressing) NB 9001
The holy grail of Kiss test pressings . Supposedly less than 30 pressed . Plain white cover and white paper inner sleeve . Hand written info top left cover . Does not include the song Kissin Time which was added to later pressings .referencing Kiss (LP, Album, Reissue, Stereo) 6399.057
As on italian pressings, french versions also feature "nothin to lose"-live version edited off kiss alive!-double lp, instead of the original studio track. why so remains a mystery to me and many others...- Even after an ultrasonic cleaning, to my ears, this release sounds undetailled and lifeless. If you search a copy, you'd better try this 2019 release, who sounds better : https://www.discogs.com/fr/release/25320370-Kiss-Kiss
