36 Years Ago: Kiss Fire Their ‘Love Gun’ ‘Love Gun,’ the sixth studio album from Kiss, and the clear pinnacle of the band’s first golden era, was released 36 years ago this week. The album’s release marked a pair of turning points for the band. It was the last record to feature their original lineup — Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Peter Criss and Ace Frehley — performing together on every song. (In 1998, the foursome released a reunion album entitled ‘Psycho Circus,’ but it is widely reported that outside musicians joined Stanley and Simmons for much of that project.) ‘Love Gun’ was also released at the high-point of the band’s commercial success. Kiss were without question the hottest band in the land at the time, with arena shows selling out across the country and mountains of records and merchandise flying off store shelves.
