EAC | FLAC+CUE+LOG or MP3 CBR 320 | Complete Scanwork | 236 or 93 MB
Casablanca / Polystar # P33C-20011 | The best sounding CD version
Despite a lot of Kiss' rips along the web, a true brilliant in the collection is the first japanese pressings. The P33C series - CD's from 1986, are stunning compared to the other versions out there. It has absolute different mastering than early WG, US or Canadian discs and their sound completely different to all other versions and have a real warmth about them. Any Kiss fan who considers themselves an audiophile and listens to CD's should have them.
