I collect video games primarily, but there is one thing that I love collecting, and that is KISS vinyl albums. It has taken me YEARS to find all of the KISS albums on vinyl, but my journey is soon coming to a close.

Well, kind of...

KISS recently re-released all of their studio albums on vinyl, which if you know KISS…that is a lot of albums!

One album that I had a lot of trouble coming across was KISS Alive 3. This album came out around the time that vinyl was on it's way out, so only a few original pressings made it to circulation, it was primarily released on the brand new tech known as the Compact Disc. Also, it was only released on a colored vinyl, making it even more rare!

I am not that much of a perfectionist, so when KISS re-released, I jumped on completing my collection. Recently, Alive 3 made it to my mailbox.

Now when I say it's 'kind of complete,' I am talking about studio albums only. There were a few different releases like 'KISS my ass Tribute album' and 'The Originals,' but I don't really care about those. Also there are a few that were exclusively released in a box set like  'Greatest KISS' and 'Alive VI'

Someday, I would like to own 'Alive VI'….only time with tell.
