By the release of their third album, 1975's Dressed to Kill, Kiss were fast becoming America's top rock concert attraction, yet their record sales up to this point did not reflect their ticket sales. Casablanca label head Neil Bogart decided to take matters into his own hands, and produced the new record along with the band. The result is more vibrant sounding than its predecessor, 1974's sludgefest Hotter Than Hell, and the songs have more of an obvious pop edge to them. The best-known song on the album by far is the party anthem "Rock and Roll All Nite," but it was the track "C'Mon and Love Me" that became a regional hit in the Detroit area, giving the band their first taste of radio success. Since the band was on the road for a year straight, songs such as "Room Service" and "Ladies in Waiting" dealt with life on the road (i.e., groupies), and a pair of songs were reworked from Kiss' precursor band, Wicked Lester ("Love Her All I Can" and "She"). With Dressed to Kill's Top 40 showing on the Billboard charts, the stage was now set for Kiss' big commercial breakthrough with their next release.
poor reprint. It seems to have a large scratch on the top of the back (and a few other places) but it's just the picture in the paper, not in the actual vinyl. On the front there is one bright spot to the left of Gene´s face. It´s a round piece of paper that is embedded in the vinyl. Unnoticed when listening and nothing contained in the track. These small errors are of course only on the disc pictured but other releases have certainly similar errors and it suggests that there are no experts who have pressed them. Another thing that differs against the official release is that the numbered box on the back have been deleted with a black color print,
not numbered. This is something that is consistently in most of the counterfeit releases from the Kiss catalog. Some releases were the numbering or the white box is simply removed, or crossed out. In this case, deleted with a black color print. It´s not unusual that people may think these are original releases from Netherlands
were the rest of the original releases came from
