KISS - EGO'S AT THE STAKE - London, UK - 9/9/1980

 

From what I’ve heard, this is a well-known bootleg from 1985. The version shared by “Matt” comes from the Godfather Records CD release. I left out three tracks since they were in MP3 format, which is standard procedure for some boot CDs. It’s an audience recording, though some believe it might be a soundboard (it’s not). 


I kept it in WAV format so it can be burned to CD without conversion. On some songs, instead of cymbal crashes, I swear I hear a high-pitched ping—probably the result of heavy-handed “mastering” (turning the levels up to 11). 

I’d love an LP transfer from an original set, so if any collectors can convert their LPs to WAV files (no MP3), it would be appreciated. In the meantime, enjoy—and thanks again to “Matt” and “The Bills.”

GO HERE   KISS   1975-05-03   1975-05-11   Audience   These are among the lowest quality recordings you will unfortunately listen to; it is hard to discern anything from the performances. These recordings do a disservice to sound itself. The front cover is AI-generated, and I will never understand how AI didn’t become self-aware and destroy these recordings.   Apologies,   "BBB"

Thanks to Matt for the original seed disc and the folks at G-101 for the lossless version. Unfortunately, both versions had the tracks out of order. Definitely one for completists only.
