KOFF THE SOUNDBOARD SAN ANTONIO, TX 1985 [SHM-CD] [LIMITED RELEASE] (EXTERNAL BONUS: ALBUM COVER STICKER)
(from CD Japan)
Off the Soundboard: San Antonio, TX 1985 will be available internationally as a 3LP set and in digital format only. However, Japan will be the only country to receive a CD release, a special item granted by KISS exclusively for their dedicated Japanese fans who have passionately supported the band for over half a century since their 1974 debut. The Japanese edition comes in SHM-CD format and is a Japan-exclusive release.

Legendary rock band KISS presents the sixth installment of their popular official live bootleg series, "Off the Soundboard." This release captures their concert on December 3, 1985, at the HemisFair Arena in San Antonio, Texas. Featuring Paul Stanley (g, vo), Gene Simmons (b, vo), Eric Carr (ds, vo), and Bruce Kulick (g, vo), the recording showcases a performance from their U.S. tour supporting the album Asylum, which was released in September of the same year. The setlist includes then-new tracks such as "Tears Are Falling" and "Uh! All Night." This marks the first soundboard live recording from KISS's Asylum Tour after officially welcoming Bruce Kulick as the band's guitarist.
*Since this product is extremely limited, only one copy may be purchased by a customer.
