Episode 667. Ken Nardi is back! This episode he talks about his brand new remix of KISS ROCK AND ROLL OVER. WOW! This release is pretty amazing! From Ken, “Basic changes are that I added a bit of grit to the bass to make it closer to Gene’s live sound, removed some of the reverb from the vocals, compressed the guitars to enhance the distortion a little and added a few accents drum accents and cymbals to some songs to make them more dynamic and more like the way Peter played them live. All-in-all, it’s probably as close to a real remix as possible without access to the actual multitrack tapes. This album was a return to form after the more “experimental” DESTROYER album and represents KISS just after gaining super-star status. Some fans find certain arrangements to be a little “rushed” not unlive DRESSED TO KILL, which makes sense considering the pace and frequency the band were releasing new material at that time. I have used some “artistic freedom” to replace the fade-outs on almost every song with hard endings or extended fades to let everyone hear all of the improvised playing and singing that was hidden in those fades. All of these changes come at the end of the songs, so hopefully it will not take away from the main song arrangements. There are a few more easter eggs as well like Paul’s “Take Me” count-in from the demo, Gene’s backing vocals from the “Baby Driver” demo, Paul’s live backing vocals on “Hard Luck Woman”, a bit of Paul’s electric guitar blended in on “I Want You” along with the extended riff before the solo and more. The biggest changes are to the song “See You In Your Dreams”. Gene has always said this song didn’t really turn out how he had imagined it and even re-recorded it for his solo album less than 2 years later. For this version I have combined elements of both along with some added hand claps and percussion to give it more of a “gospel revival” feel which I think maybe gene was going for on his solo album. I have also incorporated the intro from his solo album version and used his solo album vocals to extend the 2nd verse and some other changes Gene made for that recording. If this doesn’t suit your taste, I have also included the original arrangement as a bonus track.” Three Sides of the Coin has moved to its own YouTube Channel, don’t miss any future episodes click the link below and click SUBSCRIBE… so easy!

Episode 656. After recently moving Michael Brandvold opened up boxes he had in storage for decades, including one box filled with cassette tapes. They are slowly being digitized to share with everyone. Be sure to subscribe to the channel so you don’t miss future recordings found in the foot locker. This interview is with TIM ROZNER, Tour/Production Manager for the KISS Reunion Tour, was conducted by Michael Brandvold for his early website KISS OTAKU on 10/21/97. This interview is filled with all sorts of minutia and behind the scenes discussion about the KISS REUNION TOUR! Remember, this interview happened a short time after the tour had ended. RIP TIM ROZNER. His show business production career continued for over 45 years. He worked with many of his “rock heroes” including Led Zeppelin, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Steve Winwood, Robbie Robertson, Robert Cray, Jimmie Vaugan, Willie Nelson, Johnny Winter, BB King, Willie Dixon, Hubert Sumlin, Sheryl Crow, John Mayer, Vince Gill, The Grateful Dead, Tom Jones, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, U2, Aerosmith, Kiss, Heart, Styx, REO Speedwagon, and Don Felder. Tim provided gift tickets to countless family members and friends so they could view Tim’s shows and enjoy the experience together. Ticket requests were often a second full-time job for Tim. His work on Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festivals in Chicago, Dallas, LA and New York were feats of production mastery. They used rotating stages so that there was never a break in the music during these festivals that lasted 10-12 hours each day.

Episode 655. Take a lively look back at the most significant 12-month span in Kiss’s career, 50 years on, joining Paul, Gene, Ace, and Peter as they conquer the world. 1976 suffered no shortage of notable events… Cincinnati’s “Big Red Machine” beat the Yankees in the World Series. Jimmy Carter beat Gerald Ford at the ballot box. Rocky lit up the big screen. And some guy named Bruce Jenner lit up the Summer Olympics. And it was all set against the backdrop of the United States Bicentennial. Kiss stomped into the fray with their platform boots, barnstorming the world and still finding time to record and release two of their all-time bestselling albums. Formed in 1973, Kiss had already grabbed attention with their outrageous makeup, stage show, and (of course) music. But in 1976 the band truly took off, unleashing Destroyer and Rock and Roll Over in a span of just eight months and logging more than 100 performances in North America and Europe. In Kiss ’76, Martin Popoff presents month-by-month narratives following the band around the world, across stages and through studios. The book features: Detailed analyses of both albums, including the recording sessions, sleeve art, and more Info panels detailing the albums’ personnel, key dates, and track listings Listings of tour dates and venues Month-by-month sidebars offering concurrent world, entertainment, and music news, putting the band’s impressive achievements in the context of that momentous year Stunningly illustrated pages featuring performance and offstage photography, as well as period memorabilia and flat art So yes, as Quarto writes, there’s all that, but also a look at pop culture month-by-month, including the toys and TV shows, births and deaths, crime and war and crashes and most pointedly, Kiss in perspective against other bands. There’s also a good look at The Originals too.

Remembering Ace Frehley’s Legacy Tommy shared his personal connection with Ace Frehley, recalling a meaningful interaction from his teenage years and a recent interview experience that deepened his admiration for Ace’s warmth and humor. Mark expressed his emotional response to Ace’s death, drawing parallels to the loss of beloved hockey players and reflecting on how KISS and other childhood passions have shaped his life.

The first occurred when he was 15 and met the band at an in-store event, where Ace Frehley took the time to sign his Dynasty album despite security rushing the fans out. The second experience happened during the Farewell Tour, where Michael scored front-row center tickets and attended a Sacramento show as a fan rather than a photographer, enjoying the concert with fellow KISS enthusiasts. KISS Memories and Musical Impact Michael shared his personal experiences and memories of KISS concerts and interactions with Ace Frehley, emphasizing the impact and mystique of the band in the 1970s. He expressed disbelief and sadness at Ace’s recent passing, highlighting the significance of KISS as superheroes to their fans. Michael encouraged listeners to cherish and create memories with their favorite musicians and friends, as life is unpredictable and opportunities can be fleeting. KISS Fans Reflect on Ace’s Legacy The group discussed the recent passing of Ace Frehley and reflected on how KISS has brought them together, both as fans and as friends. They shared personal stories of attending concerts and conventions, emphasizing the importance of seizing opportunities to create memories. Michael and Tommy highlighted the impact of KISS on their lives, from building a website to meeting new friends, and encouraged others to attend KISS events while they can. The conversation concluded with a poignant reflection on Ace’s music, particularly the song “Fractured Mirror,” which now holds a deeper emotional resonance.   Press requests please contact Michael Brandvold at www.michaelbrandvold.com Since launching in 2012 Three Sides of the Coin has been viewed or listened to over 6,000,000 times.

Episode 638. NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN CONCERT FOOTAGE OF KISS AT CADILLAC HS ABOUT TO BE RELEASED ON THE FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY We sit down with Dale K. Myers. In 1975, I was a disc-jockey, Dale K. Myers, at WATT 1240-AM Radio in Cadillac, Michigan. When KISS came to town in October, I interviewed Gene Simmons and Ace Frehley, and filmed KISS performing at Cadillac HS. The audio and film recordings have been locked away in a safe deposit box for the last fifty-years. On the night of October 9, 2025 – on the 50th Anniversary of KISS on stage at Cadillac HS – I’ll be releasing my short-film, “A Disc-Jockey’s Recollections of KISS: Live at Cadillac High – October 8-10, 1975.” The film includes the story of my interactions with the band during their visit, my broadcast interview of Gene Simmons and Ace Frehley (heard only once, over WATT 1240-AM on the night of October 8, 1975), my own exclusive photographs of the band’s arrival at Cadillac HS, and last but certainly not least, never-before-seen Super 8mm sound film footage of KISS in concert at Cadillac HS. The film footage includes shots of Gene Simmons “breathing” fire atop a limousine outside the gym just before the concert, a panning shot of the crowd gathering inside the Cadillac HS gym before the concert, the crowd erupting as KISS comes on stage, KISS performing the opening song, “Deuce”; and KISS performing all of “Strutter.” There are no official films of the concert, which explains why we haven’t seen anything except amateur (and many faked) offerings over the years. Fully restored in digital 4K, I believe the footage I shot is the best there is. You be the judge.
