saw this on ebay

OUT OF KISS CONTROL, January 3, 2005
Reviewer: Kevin Dobbs "dragonboots" (Perth Western Australia)
This is a collection of tunes that continue the traditions of Peter's Kiss solo album a couple of years prior. Indeed one may suspect that this album may have been released if he were to have kept his tenure within Kiss as it does not possess the trump card of showing his naked face on the cover. Either way by this point I am sure nobody really would have been too concerned. Kiss' own sales were waining leaving any real hope of this album getting serious attention at a minimum. So is it good? Well if you didn't like the predecessor then this one will impress you not. But if you are one of the few that ranks that opus high, as I do then this will please too. A nice variety of styles only tarnished when it tries to rock a little too hard. Delights abound being "By Myself" with its simple acoustic guitar backing and heartfelt sadness and "Words" that would benefit from a little more tempo but still manages to please. "I Found Love" and "There's Nothing Better" are great rock pop and personal favourite "My Life" which is spirited and very optimistic for the drummer known as the 'complainer' by other group members. One star deducted for the agony of the closer "Feel Like Letting Go" which is like nails on a blackboard and the title track "Out Of Control" which would have benefited from a little more substance lyrically. However if you like flaws in your artists that demonstrate risk taking and genuine love of their craft then this one is very much recommended.

I love this album.. till One For All came out it was my favorite Peter Criss album ever..

It is surprising to me that the CD goes for more than the LP these days,
the same goes for Let Me Rock You..
KISS freak for life, husband of the most beautiful woman in the universe, father of the greatest girls ever, and stepfather of one nut, and Grand Dad to one BEAUTIFUL Baby Girl forever.. I love them all with all my heart and always will !!!

Out of control got my second Peter Criss Favourite Song off all time : I FOUND LOVE!!!

Since 1989 I decided that this track is my second favourite one.
And even Cat 1 and One for All doesn't chance my opinion,
no song could replace I found Love on the silver medaille.

He wrote it with Stan Penridge ( off course ) and David Wolfert,
the great producer of of Out of Control.

I also got a demo of this track,
it's more funky, with a wah-wah guitar,
which I like too, in some parts of the song even more!!!

Great song, wish he could perform it once live, would be awesome!!!

Other cool tracks, "By Myself", which he performed regularly in the early nineties with Criss and off course the cool rocker "In Trouble Again" also a good song for Live-Concerts I think, but never played.

Out of Control is great stuff, especially because Peter wrote 9 of the 10 Songs!!!
Only "You better run" from the Rascals ( Cavaliere/Brigati) is a cover,
not counting the 11 Seconds at the end, ha, ha...


YOU KEEP ME SAFE AND WARM ... Wow!!! :04a
