Description of MTV Unplugged:
The highlight of this MTV gig is the cover of the Stones' "2,000 Man," which Kiss covered on Dynasty. Though the four original members play together on only two tunes ("2,000 Man" and the first real acoustic guitar version of their hit "Beth"), the two tracks ("Rock and Roll All Nite" and "Nothin' to Lose") on which they're joined by current members--drummer Eric Singer and guitarist Bruce Kulick--are also magical. The rest of the album, featuring only the current lineup, has some great moments when Kiss's songwriting prowess really shines through. Songs like "Comin' Home," "Sure Know Something," "See You Tonight," and "Goin' Blind" sound amazing in the acoustic format. However, things get a little miserable when they pull out two overwrought ballads, "I Still Love You" and "Every Time I Look at You," toward the end of the 15-song CD. --Adem Tepedelen
MTV Unplugged Reviews:
Awesome CD 
2009-11-18 - This CD is awesome I listen to it constantly! It really shows how talented this group really is!!
bruce shows why he was the best
2009-10-08 - bruce shows why he was the best guitarist in kiss. even though all kiss guitarists are all good , bruce is the only one that could have pulled this off accousticaly
well done 
2009-06-26 - Kiss translates well into an acoustic set. This is just as good as any studio recorded album.
Alive! is legendary, Unplugged is a masterpiece.
2008-02-27 - This is among the great KISS albums.
Alive! is legendary, but Unplugged is a masterpiece.
The album shows the true integrity of KISS and that their songs hold up as classic rock n' roll.
The main highlights are "Comin' Home", "I Still Love You", "2,000 Man", "Beth" and "Nothin' To Lose".
Bruce Kulick does a great job taking Ace's electric guitar solos and translating them to work accoutically.
The set list was so diverse for this show, it really is a great listen all around.
I have also found this to be a great jumping off point for introducing people to KISS who might have an aversion to "guys that wear make-up" or people who say "they're great performers, but the music is weak".
I gave a copy to my best friend who thinks Springsteen is God and he now he's added the four-who-are-one to his list of rock deities.
So if you haven't already, buy this album. Then buy Kisstory Vol. 3 for a few extras and to see the unplugged action come Alive!.
Kiss Accoustic is Awsome
2007-10-15 - This is a great album. It has some really good accoustic versions of there classic songs. Coming Home accoustic buries the original. It sounds like it was meant to be recorded this way. Who couldn't like the reunion of the four original members.
