Cornerstone KISS: I'm not a huge KISS fan but I do like their music and story. This card shows the band members in their outfits that helped make them famous. It also scared many of our parents back in the day while captivating young minds.
Gene Simmons famously blew fire on stage and was also known for what seemed to be a long tongue. That and his playing and singing.
KISStory cards make up the bulk of the set with a write-up on the backs of each. Interesting information, most of which I've never seen before.
My favorite songs from the band are Domino, Rock and Roll All Nite, Heaven's on Fire, and God Gave Rock & Roll to You II. Probably not the classics many prefer. I have their Alive III album and it gets played a fair amount.
Speaking of the Alive albums, Alive II shows up here on one of the subsets named Discography.
KISS was something. While the music may not go down as historic works of art, they were more than their music. They were a complete act in that they put on a show that gets you listening and to their concerts as much as the music itself. These were fun and I enjoy looking back at band cards. This Ace Frehley was my foil card. Sadly, he passed at the age of 74 in October.
