Welcome to Hail the Grails Records! I’m Brian, and thank you for stopping by. Whether you found me on eBay, Discogs, Mercari, or the Hail the Grails Records Facebook group, you’re buying from the same trusted seller with a passion for rare collectibles, accurate grading, secure packing, and honest descriptions. Offered here is a scarce BMG Direct record-club pressing of KISS Alive!, catalog number R260253. This is not the common 1975 retail gatefold edition.

The rear cover retains the white BMG Direct Marketing manufacturing sticker and large blue R260253 club number. This edition is believed to date from the closing years of vinyl’s original mass-market era, likely circa 1989, when compact discs were rapidly replacing records. The exact BMG release year and pressing quantity have never been officially documented, so 1989 is presented as the likely period rather than a guaranteed date. VINYL: NM. Both records retain beautiful gloss and appear barely played. JACKET: VG+. Strong color and overall presentation with light age-related corner and edge wear, minor surface marks and small creases visible in the photographs. The BMG sticker and club markings remain intact. A beautiful collector-grade example of an unusual late-era KISS club pressing that is becoming increasingly difficult to locate in this condition. The photographs show the actual record being offered and form part of the condition description. Both records will be secured outside the jacket, placed in a protective outer sleeve and packed carefully in a strong record mailer. Condition: Used. Category: Music › Vinyl Records.
