It&#8217;s in new condition and was in a heavy plastic slipcase when I bought it. It looks like it&#8217;s never been played. It still has the Platinum Award paper in it with the owners name written on it. Also inside is a paper to fill out to join the Kiss Army Fan Club. The owner probably bought it when she was young and kept it all these years before parting with it a few years ago when I bought it at a record store. I think I payed $20 for it,a little more than the $12.98 list price printed on the spine.As I said I was never a Kiss fan but I knew all the radio hits like &#8220;Hard Luck Woman&#8221;,&#8221;Beth&#8221;,and at some time when I was living at home I owned Dressed to Kill(don&#8217;t know what happened to that record) so I knew the three songs from that record. &#8220;Detroit Rock City&#8221; is one that was on a Kiss tribute album that I used to have. Done by The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Kiss&#8217;s original version sounds empty without the horns added by The Bosstones. &#8220;Do You Love Me&#8221; is one I hadn&#8217;t heard since the early 70&#8217;s while &#8220;Calling Doctor Love&#8221; and &#8220;Hotter Than Hell&#8221; are songs I heard on the radio through the years. &#8220;Strutter&#8221; was on a Warner Brothers compilation album I used to have. The other ten songs I was not familiar with.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was never a big Kiss guy but when I saw this original pressing from 1978 I had to buy&hellip; <a class=\"read-more\" href=\"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/2021\/10\/22\/kiss-double-platinum\/\">Read more <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Kiss-Double Platinum<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2880","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2880","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2880"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2880\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2882,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2880\/revisions\/2882"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2880"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2880"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2880"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
