Paul Stanley - Live to Win

[Spiff]

Bought this today. 10 tracks, 33 minutes. Quite a good album. I love the title track. Some songs are a bit on the dodgy side though.

Interesting note - Bruce Kulick plays on it. Even more interesting note - he plays bass on it. Say what?

 

[Wrathchild]

What I've heard of it sounded like third rate Avril Lavigne, so I ain't buyin' it. Stan's capable of so much better and I can't believe he'd put something like this out in a desperate grab for mainstream credibility.

Bruce played more bass during his KISS years than a lot of people realise. He does it well even if it's not his main instrument.

I've had the album burnt for about 3-4 months now and think it's excellent. The only let down is the production style (which as you said is in a Lavigne style) but the songs & hooks are pure classic Stanley and his vocals are strong too.

My fave tracks - Bulletproof (80s Kiss style), Live To Win, Wake Up Screaming, All About You.

Least favourite track is Lift... On an interesting note, I heard that Stanley has been rehearsing "A Million To One" in the setlist for the solo tour!! THAT is exciting!

I got it over the weekend after hearing some raving reviews. It's great.

 

[Sydo]

We still don't have it here in Geelong.

Or the new Meatloaf.
Or Talisman.
Or Dungeon.
Or Primal Fear.
Or Zakk Wylde DVD.

I have no idea why we even have a JB HiFi if they don't even bother stocking it with stuff.

 

[phlogiston]

I said I got it. Didn't say it was from JB Hi-fi

New Meat Loaf is in the Target catalogue this week for $20. I hope to pick it up, the title track is killer.
