Everything from the first THREE Kiss albums represented on Alive! Every cut is improved. I don't always believe this to be true, but it is here.

 

Generally speaking I prefer studio albums. I used to be just the opposite, but I have largely lost my lust for live recordings the way I loved them when younger.

Queen's Live Killers version of Spread Your Wings.

 

Do You Feel off Frampton Comes Alive

 

Captain Jack off Billy Joel's Songs in the Attic

 

Whole Lotta Rosie off ACDC's If You Want Blood

 

Maybe I'm Amazed and Venus & Mars/Rock Show/Jet off Wings Over America

Do You Feel off Frampton Comes Alive

 

Maybe I'm Amazed . . . off Wings Over America

 

Two more great examples of a live performance breathing "life" into a song. Although, with respect to Maybe, I will say the fact that Paul is the only person performing on the studio version is awe-inspiring.

With live Kiss songs, there weren't any other specific names of them, so far. If there were, then right now, more, than one would be on the list. It is similar to someone else saying nearly every live Rush song.

I love both versions of "Maybe I'm Amazed". But the talent of a very good band adds power to the song. A great song is a great song.

Pretty much everything I listen to.

I would have a hard time finding studio versions that I prefer to the live version.
