RARO and Love Gun did nothing for them in the same regard. Ezrin doesn't have to apologize for shit.

This notion is absolute fucking idiocy. KISS should be thanking him for making what is considered their best album and for helping to keep their career alive.
Paul knows it.
It would be cool if one day Bob did decide to do a book, (like Greg Renhoffs upcoming book on Ted Templeman w Teds involvement) and certain stories could be told and tales put to bed not just Destroyer but Elder and Revenge, and working with Alice as a band and a solo artist.
You get Greg involved and you know the research will be meticulous and the writing on par with someone of his academic background. Not just a cut and paste like.. um a recent book. hey just get random fans and casuals to thrown in a page or three...
Yep. Paul does know it and Ezrin has been the only producer he respects and will listen to - prior to Ezrin shitting on Sonic Boom and Monster and rightfully so. Bob is correct - those albums suck, especially on a production level.
Oh absolutely - an Ezrin book would be a must read.
I assume that he was NOT Stevie Nicks-level coked out when he produced Destroyer and The Wall. But by The Elder? Apparently so.
However, if Bob was wasted in the mid-70's, he probably couldn't remember anything any more accurately than Ace does. Just put Ace, Gene, Paul, Peter, Bob, Eddie Kramer, Richie Wise, Vini Poncia, and C.K. Lendt (and maybe some wives?) together in a room, and have a moderator interview them all at once.
