Kiss - Rock and Roll Over

1. I Want  You - great ballady opening.  Soft and then boom...it blows up and fires on all cylinders.  A+

2.  Take Me -  cool rock and roll riffing.  Bass sounds good.  Uptempo rocker.  B

3.  Calling Dr. Love -  great classic simple riff.  Cool cowbell.  This song simply rocks.  Cool falsetto chorus singing.  the dual guitars on this one make it a solid addition to any rock playlist.  A+

4.  Ladies room -  should've been an instrumental.  lyrics and vocals are terrible.  C-

5.  Baby Driver- dated  70s rock but not totally lost.  At least it moves and once again Ace saves the day.  B-

6.  Love 'em and Leave 'em -  nothing here that hasn't been somewhere on the previous albums.  Only Ace's playing is interesting.  Cool phaser sound effect.  Ace does some cool stuff with his switches too.....but the song sucks.  D

7.  Mr. Speed -  Jim Dandy and Black Oak Arkansas weren't this cheesy.  F

8.  See you in your Dreams -  shit. Utter and total shit.  another flat boring chorus. My turds splashing in the toilet are more musical.  F (only because there is no lower letter grade).

9.  Hard Luck Woman -  good vocal by Peter.  cool tune but only slightly above average and really only stands out because the last 3 songs make you wish you were a suicide bomber.  B-

10.  Making love-  starts out with great riffing.  Song blazes.  Some shit parts but the uptempo pace and energy win out.  B


Overall :  C
