Nothin' to Lose: The Making of KISS, 1972-1975 tells the story of the band's early years, from their humble beginnings in New York City to their rise to superstardom. Author Ken Sharp has conducted extensive interviews with all four original members of KISS, as well as with their managers, producers, and other key figures in their history. The result is a meticulously researched and engrossing account of one of the most successful rock bands of all time.
Sharp begins by chronicling the band's early days, when they played small clubs and struggled to make a name for themselves. He describes the band's early musical influences, including the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the New York Dolls. He also discusses the band's early lineup changes, which saw the departure of original drummer Peter Criss and the addition of Ace Frehley on lead guitar.
In 1973, KISS signed with Casablanca Records and released their self-titled debut album. The album was a commercial failure, but it helped to raise the band's profile. In 1974, KISS released their second album, Hotter Than Hell, which was a更大的commercial success. The album featured the hit single "Detroit Rock City," which helped to establish KISS as a major force in rock and roll.
In 1975, KISS released their breakthrough album, Alive! The album was a live recording that captured the band's electrifying stage show. Alive! was a huge commercial success, and it helped to make KISS one of the most popular bands in the world. The album also featured the hit single "Rock and Roll All Nite," which became one of the band's signature songs.
Nothin' to Lose is a fascinating and in-depth look at the early years of KISS. Sharp's meticulous research and engaging writing style make this book a must-read for any fan of the band. The book is also a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of rock and roll.
