Background

[edit]

Each CD in the set is named after one of the original group members (which contain songs that they wrote/sing on), created by long-time Kiss fan Paul "DJ Flare" Hall and co-produced with Jeff Fura. In 1996, the 'KISS-Icons' logos were created by Ajax Garcia, a famous Los Angeles-based artist. Garcia is known as a founding member of the 1990s punk group The Napoleon Blownaparts.[2]
