Casablanca / Polystar # P33C-20011 | The best sounding CD version
Despite a lot of Kiss' rips along the web, a true brilliant in the collection is the first japanese pressings. The P33C series - CD's from 1986, are stunning compared to the other versions out there. It has absolute different mastering than early WG, US or Canadian discs and their sound completely different to all other versions and have a real warmth about them. Any Kiss fan who considers themselves an audiophile and listens to CD's should have them.
"When the earth was young, they were already old…"
Since the dawn of time, the Elder have watched silently over a virgin world and all its creatures…
Now, they have assumed the form of mortals so that they might walk amongst men and guide them.
The Elder are an ideal…They embody the wisdom of the ages and the power of goodness and knowledge…
But the Elder were not alone in the beginning and are not alone still…Another force has existed eternally…
In every place, in every time, an evil is loosed whose sole purpose is to destroy all that is good.
And in every time, and every place, it is the task of the Elder to find and train a warrior…a champion to conquer the evil.
As the looming clouds gather, the council of the Elder sits at their ancient table under the sign of the Rose.
Once again they must combat the evil that is lurking in darkness and spreading throughout the world.
They await the word from Morpheus, the caretaker, whether the boy be deemed ready for the sacred rite of accession to the Order of the Rose…and for the pronouncement of his sacred duty…
The odyssey begins…
