KissFAQ interviews KISS co-producer of “KISS” and “Hotter Than Hell”
If you’re a big music fan, you are likely aware that April 20 isn’t a typical Saturday. It marks the seventh annual Record Store Day, a worldwide celebration of the fraternity of record stores and their standing as an important thread in the fabric of local communities. You know, those cool stores where KISS Army members went to buy “Rock And Roll Over” in 1976.
In conjunction with the music holiday, a series of Record Store Day exclusives — including limited-edition vinyl, singles, EPs, and CDs — will be released at participating RSD record stores. One such exclusive this year is a two-LP gatefold edition of New York-based hard rock trio Dust’s 1971 self-titled album and 1972′s “Hard Attack.”
