Where's KISS? A nice but very incomplete tribute album.:
This would be a great (four star) album if I just rated it on it's songs. However, it's supposed to be a tribute to Casablanca Records and the 1970's. Given this, I gave it only three stars because of what it is missing. There aren't any songs by KISS and there is only one song by Parliament. Anyone who knows the story of Casablanca Records knows that KISS and Parliament were two of the biggest instruments in the labels success. Leaving KISS off of this album is like doing an "EMI Remembers The 1960's" album and not including the Beatles. KISS and Parliament were two of the first groups Neil Bogart signed to Casablanca Records and KISS "Alive!" was the album that would make or break the label. Of course, it became Casablanca's first major success and paved the way for everything on "Casablanca Records Greatest Hits." I hope Polygram modifies this CD some day to include more from these two groups. It will be an excellent (five star) album and I won't hesitate to buy it when they do.
