[A complete sound board different from the video version]
… and so on. This show is known for the masterpiece pro shots that were left behind, and our highest peak version “HOUSTON 1976” is also very popular. This work is the audio drop… It’s not. It’s a newly excavated upgrade master that is different from the pro shot.

The improvement spans both quality and quantity. First of all, the quantity is the point, but the complete recording of the full show that has finally been realized. There were various types of pro shot versions, but in any case, “Do You Love Me?” was missing. This work is a complete sound board that also includes “Do You Love Me?” (and before and after) (Note: The recording time itself is longer for the pro shot, but because the pre-show part is recorded longer. In the main part of the live performance, this work is longer). Let’s check out the full set here.
●DESTROYER (5 songs)
Detroit Rock City / King Of the Night Time World / Shout It Out Loud / Do You Love Me? (★) / God Of Thunder
●Classics (9 songs)
KISS: Strutter / Nothin’ To Lose / Cold Gin / Deuce / Firehouse / Black Diamond
Others: Let Me Go, Rock And Roll / Hotter Than Hell (*) / Rock And Roll All Nite
*Note: “★” indicates songs that were not included in the pro-shot version of “HOUSTON 1976.” “*” indicates songs that could not be heard on the press classic “JERSEY CITY 1976 SOUNDBOARD.”

[Sound quality has also been significantly upgraded]
And the quality that penetrates such a full show is the biggest point. Although the pro-shot sound was a sound board with plenty of direct feeling, listening to the sound alone was small and felt like “sound that requires video”. However, this work is remarkably clear and wide. Each sound of the four people stretches well, and the contours and separation feel stand out clearly. Although it is a direct-connected mix system that is too raw to be called official, it is a live album that can be established as a stunning musical work even without video.

This newly excavated soundboard master includes a full recording of “Do You Love Me?”, which was not possible with a professional shot, and the sound quality has been greatly improved. This is a new masterpiece of a live album that will be exceptional even in the masterpiece-filled “DESTROYER Tour.” Please enjoy it to the fullest with the permanent preservation press CD.
