</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">The American band Kiss was formed in New York around 1973. Kiss, which was easily identified with excessive face makeup and paint, stage outfits and elaborate performances in concerts, has sold over 19 million records in the U.S. alone and a whopping 80 million records worldwide. The band was awarded with 22 gold records since its formation, despite a history of different band members.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">Kiss is well-known for their live performances, having gimmicks like fire-breathing, smoking guitars; blood-spitting; pyrotechnics; and other extraordinary tricks. Because of their entertaining performances and great glam music, Kiss quickly developed a fan base worldwide.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">Of all American rock and roll artists, Kiss has proved their appealing image for all ages and has successfully promoted itself to a point that exceeds even Elvis Presley's promotion.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8pulSBG70vahskvoAtWSENAFmyLq9nwE4mn3aZLDI1qfsMfgNLQF0OBG9Aya3RnsO5n2E0TmrE_UZnA5F_Fb9Qz92KNJIrIZ0F2_Y60cdqVkUaeU_W1La9_ajm5sm5P456RtMmBNht-8b/s1600/kiss.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8pulSBG70vahskvoAtWSENAFmyLq9nwE4mn3aZLDI1qfsMfgNLQF0OBG9Aya3RnsO5n2E0TmrE_UZnA5F_Fb9Qz92KNJIrIZ0F2_Y60cdqVkUaeU_W1La9_ajm5sm5P456RtMmBNht-8b/s1600/kiss.jpg" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">The People Behind the Music of Kiss</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">The original members of Kiss were Gene Simmons, a schoolteacher and bass player, and Paul Stanley, a singer and guitarist, who were both members of a band called Wicked Lester.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">When Simmons and Stanley decided to leave Wicked Lester, they brought with them their bad boy image and formed the band Kiss, which later became dubbed as one of the greatest rock and roll bands in the world of popular music.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">Kiss became a complete band after recruiting Paul "Ace" Frehley (vocals and lead guitar) and Peter Criss (vocals and drums) through a newspaper advertisement that Stanley and Simmons set out.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">The band Kiss produced a series of successful albums throughout the 1970s. With their donning elaborate face make-up and black leather outfits, Kiss instantly became a hit and even adopted their own personas and stage names: Stanley "The Star Child," Simmons "The Demon," Criss "The Cat" and Frehley "The Space Man."</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">Unfortunately, because of creative differences and substance abuse, Frehley and Criss were both out of the band by 1982. As a result, the band's commercial fortune and fan base decreased during this time.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">Without the make-up, Kiss made a major comeback in 1983 and enjoyed a successful resurgence all through the early 1990s. Kiss' original lineup reunited in 1996 and performed in 210 cities for the "Kiss Alive Worldwide Tour." After the tour, Criss was replaced by Eric Singer and Frehley by Tommy Thayer.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">The Gold, Platinum and Multi-Platinum Albums of Kiss</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">When the original members of Kiss first performed with their raw music in local bars, they eventually impressed a manager named Bill Aucoin and signed a deal with Casablanca Records in 1973.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">In 1974 Kiss' self-titled debut album came out, which was filled with crushing, raw music. However, the band's commercial stardom began with their 1975 album "Dressed to Kill," which gave Kiss their signature tune from timeless songs like "Rock and Roll All Nite."</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">Around 1976 Kiss released "Love Gun" and "Rock and Roll Over," which both went platinum. "Creatures of the Night," their final album with Casablanca Records, was a major success in 1982. In the next year, Kiss dropped their infamous make-up, signed with Mercury Records and reinvented their sound to produce another platinum album called "Lick It Up."</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">In 1992 the band released the "Revenge" album, which automatically went gold. Then an official Kiss reunion of "The Star Child," "The Demon," "The Cat" and "The Space Man" was filmed by MTV's Unplugged, which was internationally released both on record and on video.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: normal;">Kiss continued playing their music until 2001. However, through their evolving music, elaborate live acts, outlandish costumes and millions of fans and worldwide, Kiss remains one of the greatest rock and roll bands in the world.</div></span></span>School Of Rockhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16789231571610939900noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7709612002297281681.post-53558825197051817652011-02-09T00:59:00.002+08:002011-02-23T02:50:13.297+08:00GARY MOORE R.I.P<script type="text/javascript" src="http://d.yimg.com/ds/badge2.js" badgetype="square">ARTICLEURL</script><br />

Born Edward Lodewijk Van Halen on January 26, 1955, in the Netherlands, Van Halen moved with his family to the U.S. in the '60s. He and his older brother, Alex, began taking piano lessons at an early age, which planted the seeds for both of the siblings' future musical career. Mesmerized by the British Invasion rock movement (especially the Dave Clark Five), Eddie began playing the drums, while Alex took up guitar. The brothers switched their respective instruments shortly thereafter (while Eddie was out working a paper route trying to make his drum kit's payments, Alex was bashing away at his drums, until he was actually better than Eddie) -- as such, hard rock guitarists as Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page soon influenced the youngest Van Halen's playing.</div><div style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: black; font-family: Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica; font-size: x-small; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; margin-top: 12px;">The Van Halen brothers began playing backyard parties and clubs in the Los Angeles area (mixing covers with originals), and eventually hooked up with singer David Lee Roth and bassist Michael Anthony in the early '70s, as the group Mammoth. It was around this time that Eddie began employing a new skill to his guitar playing, the 'two-handed tap' technique, which would soon become his trademark (and infinitely copied by other players). With his awesome speed and tasty phrasing, Eddie quickly became the top guitarist on the local music scene, as the group changed their name by the mid-'70s to simply Van Halen.</div><div style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: black; font-family: Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica; font-size: x-small; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; margin-top: 12px;">Eddie also began custom building his own guitars, while using the shape of a Fender Stratocaster, he would cover the body of his guitar in strips of tape to create a wild design that would become another trademark of his. Van Halen signed to Warner Bros. in 1977, which issued the band's classic self-titled debut a year later, starting off a string of multi-platinum albums and sold out tours. Ed immediately began being recognized as the best rock guitarist, he won numerous poll awards from all the world's guitar magazines (Guitar Player, Guitar World, etc.), something that would become a yearly occurrence.</div><div style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: black; font-family: Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica; font-size: x-small; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; margin-top: 12px;">Besides guitar, Ed broadened his horizons by adding keyboards to the band's sound (resulting in their 1984 number one hit "Jump"), as well as singing lead on select tracks (1998's "How Many Say I"). And despite going through several singers throughout their career (Roth, Sammy Hagar, and Gary Cherone), Van Halen's popularity persevered. In addition to playing on Van Halen albums, Ed has also appeared on other artist's recordings -- his most famous being an uncredited solo on Michael Jackson's 1983 monster hit, "Beat It," as well as collaborations with Queen's Brian May (1983's Star Fleet Project) and Roger Waters (the track "Lost Boys Calling" from 1999's The Legend of 1900 soundtrack). Film scoring also was added to his list of credentials, with his compositions appearing on the soundtracks for the movies The Wild Life (1985) and Twister (1996).</div><div style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: black; font-family: Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica; font-size: x-small; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; margin-top: 12px;">Although he was associated with Kramer Guitars throughout the '80s, Ed created his own line of guitars for first the Ernie Ball Company in the early '90s, before switching to Peavey in the mid-'90s. Eddie's personal life has also found it's way into the tabloids over the years, first with his marriage to TV actress Valerie Bertinelli, and also with a publicized alcohol dependency (a battle he successfully conquered in the late '90s). Eddie Van Halen remains one of rock's great instrumentalists.</div><div style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: black; font-family: Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica; font-size: x-small; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; margin-top: 12px;"><br />
