Crazy Nights is often slated by KISS fans as the worst the ever put out. It's all opinion and taste of course but I never agreed. In fact, I think it's a good album. Certainly not one of their finest but containing some excellent material.
The three singles are all excellent; Reason to Live is a great 80s power ballard, Crazy Crazy Nights is a fist pumping, pop rock anthem and Turn on the Night has to be the most underrated KISS song of all time. It is (in my humble opinion) as good as any pop rock put out by the likes of Bon Jovi or Poison at the time. Other tracks are equally good such as Hell to Hold You, Good Girl Gone Bad, Hell or High Water and Theif in the Night. It is also wonderful to see Gene back producing good songs after his poor attempts on the last two albums. On the down side, the album takes a bit of a kicking from its weaker tracks. Bang, Bang You and No, No, No are abysmal, and others like My Way and When your Walls Come Down are quite poor.
Despite a couple of filler tracks, Crazy Nights is KISS' best album since Lick it Up. It contains many superb tracks and sees Gene starting back on the straight and narrow. This album has a bad reputation, but I suggest you listen for yourself, you may find you really like it, as I do.

Finally the make over was complete,this is a decent selection of tunes but it could be anybody,yes crazy crazy nights is a catchy tune but it could be slade/quiet riot etc,reason too live a wonderful power ballad,although why foriegner never sued for the complete rip off of 'i want to know what love is' i'll never know,kiss were now completely souless aiming for the pop market,a transient audience which would desert them eventually,the band that had known no boundaries was now a tame bon jovi clone,how sad.On a positive note saw the band twice on the uk tour(Edinburgh) and they really seemed to be enjoying themselves,the newer tunes sounded heavier live and some old favs were creeping back into the set.

Another one of KISS' atempts to follow the general market, this one too arrived just a touch to late. In trying to retread the steps taken by other late-80's hard rock/metal bands KISS lost much of their soul. There are a few stand-out tracks (the title track bounces nicely and as usual Paul writes beautiful ballads) but as a whole there's too much filler here.

Each KISS album is unique for reasons of their own but Crazy Nights stands out above the rest. It kicks off with what I believe is a purely brilliant title track. Read more

Great Album, Not Really Kiss Though
Being honest here, this is my favourite KISS album. The reason for this is I'm a hardened 80s pop/rock fanatic and love everything from Bon Jovi to Whitesnake. Read more
