Well Dynasty is basically a compilation of left over solo material. It does not sound like a KISS album, instead it just sounds like parts of all the solo albums.
this song is very reminiscent of what was going at the time. I actually really like hearing stuff like this. Some of the Gene Simmons demos touch on songs like this. I just didn't like KiSS after Unmasked. They stopped being who they were. Some of the co-written Vinnie Material is ok. Domino is a good song. But they kind of left behind who they were as songwriters and seemed on bent on being current sounding instead of just writing what they wanted and putting it out.
I imagine a video of this version with Ace dancing and laughing behind Paul and Gene to ruin the shot. Nah ... I just can not imagine Ace playing this.
Peter let his ego get away from him. He believed all the lies cocaine was whispering in his ear. But im sure working with Gene and Paul all those years was difficult. In the beginning Kiss was an equal partnership, but when Ace and Peter put partying above all else, i believe Gene and Paul took the reigns and decided they would make all the decisions and shut out Ace and Peter
This version sounds like it would've been recorded during Peter's solo sessions and Vini Poncia brought it over to the Dynasty recordings.
It could be. I don't
Remember anything in 1978
I was a baby I was
Born in 1974.

I can actually see people "boogieing" to this song in Studio 54 in 1979.
it was smashed there....but the "Maxi Single" Extended Burgess mix was the one they flogged
Disco-version of Dirty Livin. Thumbs up!

Hypnotizing rythm
Kiss was really into the Disco Music in 1979! lol
Awesome version by the way!

Dirty living was the best song on dynasty and this demo kicks ass
The Best Song!!! ⭐️🏆⭐️
That's Ace Frehley on bass!
No that is gene
the best dynasty!!!
I think this disco-sounding version is quite cool!
That was interesting!
YEAH cool disco and guitar great!!!
this should have been released as a "hidden track" on Dynasty!

Ace chose to leave because of the direction the band was going during the elder recordings and peter leaving
Funky Disco Yhea!!! Lovelly!!!
@Boxingbear Hell yea, big time. The Dynasty version beats this one off the vynil!!!
KISS RULEZ!
Kiss dynasty rules
Final version is better. It's missing the Gene simmons bass on the verse and the bass bridge after the chorus.
I would say yes to that too but it's great that we're hearing this version too.! Peter's swing on this is much better than the Dynasty version.!
the real version
paul n gene never wanted peter crisis's song's on that album
Better than the album version. The album version had no spine or thump. Death by production?
no way
@@juanmanuellopez7485I'll second that
I think it's close.! Drums are much better here for sure.!
Still better than that shit show Charisma
Charisma is not bad, but I agree that this song is much better! Congrats!!
Why the Charisma hate.! That was one of my faves from the day I brought it home May 79 15vyrs old.!
@@raymorrow170 may 79,,!, such that great period of time!!! :)))
This version sucks..
