Show Notes

KISS GETS PRETENTIOUS!  Who is the Manchild?  Who is Morpheus?  Who are any of these people and what are they doing?  Would listening to the overly dramatic spoken word interludes have elucidated things – or just elicited laughter?  Just how much cocaine was consumed in order for this to seem like a good idea?  Could Ace ever break the Gene/Paul voting bloc?  Is this secretly a better album than Pink Floyd’s “The Wall”?  What song sounds like the background music for an episode of “Miami Vice”?  We will try to get to the bottom of this on Detours & Outliers.
