Summary: Pricey but worth it!
Comment: [Money] is a bit much for a book, but this is a limited edition and mine was signed by the band (1995 line-up). Great historical info and pictures in this book, and you have to appreciate the amount of work that went into assembling all this stuff for the book (though the binding has given many owners some problems). Superior to its follow-up KISSTORY II. This book is perhaps better as a collectible than as a gloves-off historical document of the band, but there is a lot in this book to like, even if Gene and Paul do pull some punches about their own troubled and storied career. Want some more behind-the-scenes stories of the band? Check out the book KISS AND SELL by C.K. Lendt, available at this website and many others. Lendt's book is a bit more revealing of the ugly business aspects of the band's history, and significantly cheaper.

Summary: a must have for all kiss fans!
Comment: hello!,my name is mark, and i am 30yrs.old and kiss is a very big part of my life and if you fell the same as i do about the band, you will need this book to brush up on your history(kisstory)filled with never seen photos of the band in the 70s and covers the small things that make you feel that much closer to the band,i was too young to see them in concert(the 70s)but more than made up for it on 10/09/96 in philly!,if you only buy one kiss book in your life,this has to be the one!

Summary: Kisstory 1
Comment: In what is supposed to be the difinitive story of my favorite band KISS, i have to say, if falls a bit short. For starters, i think full page pics of the band would have been cooler instead of the various collages and text written over the pics. Also, i personally would have loved to have seen features on the various guitars and drum kits used. That would have been very cool!. With that, features on the evolution of their stages, costumes and make-up would also have been cool. I don't know. KISS is more a cash cow business than it has ever been and it's un-fortunate because if they came out with ligitimate, cool stuff, people would still buy it. Don't get me wrong, this book is a must have, and even the rediculous price tag is justified because it is what it is. But, i think ALL the copies should have been autographed and i think more attention to the details should have been made. Where's a pic outside the Chinese theater? Why no shots of them rehearsing without make-up? Why not commentary from the band on their songs, albums and each other? KISSTORY falls short on its HISTORY!!!
