It Happened In The 70's (Part 10)

Rank the KISS albums released in the 70's

1- ALIVE! (1975)
2- Hotter Than Hell (1974)
3- Rock And Roll Over (1976)
4- Dressed To Kill (1975)
INSERT KISS (1974) HERE
5- Ace Frehley (1978)
6- Paul Stanley (1978)
INSERT Destroyer (1976) HERE
7- Love Gun (1977)
9- Dynasty (1979)
10- Alive II (1977)
11- Peter Criss (1978) & Gene Simmons (1978)

Never owned the Double Platinum (1978) compilation and consider the solo alums to be be KISS releases, though some do not (no big deal)

KISS (not on the list)
Destroyer (not on the list)
Hotter Than Hell
Rock And Roll Over
Ace Frehley
Paul Stanley
Dynasty
Dressed To Kill (always felt this was the weakest of the original three)
Love Gun (besides Love Gun and Shock Me, a bunch of filler and b-sides)
Gene Simmons
Peter Criss

I'm omitting the 2 Alive albums and Double Platinum. And since the '78 solo albums are always listed in the official discographies by the band, I think they should be included here too.

I think the only one I ever heard front-to-back is Rock and Roll Over. It did not win me over, and I feel it pales in comparison to what other bands were doing at the time.
