Listen to The Very Best Of Kiss - Weekend Special Playlist

The self-proclaimed “Hottest Band in the World" KISS is indeed one of the most popular rock groups in the history of the industry, having sold more than 100 million albums during its more than 40-year reign. KISS has 30 gold-certified albums (sales of 500,000 copies), more than any other American band. And, along with that other fabulous foursome, the Beatles, KISS is one of few musical acts in which each member has a distinct image and is readily identifiable by the general public. In fact, co-founder Gene Simmons has often called his beloved band "the heavy metal Beatles.”

Los Brincos: Reserva Especial: Todos los Grandes Éxitos 1964-1971

La impresionante historia de esta banda de rock español de cuatro miembros de la década de 1960 comenzó cuando Juan Pardo y Fernando Arbex se reunieron en un club local llamado Norba, compartiendo su pasión por la música y decidiendo crear un nuevo proyecto que más tarde se llamaría Los Brincos.

Cuando el ex-Estudiantes Estudiantes Luis Sartorius fue nombrado director del sello Novola, el ejecutivo eligió a los Brincos para crear una alternativa a los Beatles. El nombre de la banda fue idea de Rosa Arbex, quien rechazó una propuesta de llamar al grupo Las Ovejas Negras. Después de que Manuel González y Junior se unieron, el grupo comenzó a componer, a escribir canciones en inglés y español.

En 1964, Luis Sartorius falleció después de un accidente automovilístico, pero incluso cuando esa noticia trágica apenas llegó a la banda, los cuatro músicos estaban decididos a seguir adelante.

Después de grabar su álbum debut, el flamenco de los Brincos se convirtió en su primer éxito. Para hacer el siguiente registro, el grupo se mudó a Milán en 1966. Poco después, su canción "Tú Me Dijiste Adios" comenzó a subir en las listas.

Después de actuar en el Festival de Benidorm, Juan Pardo y Junior decidieron abandonar el grupo para comenzar su propio proyecto, siendo reemplazados por Vicente Ramírez y Miguel Morales. En 1967, la "Lola" de los Brincos se convirtió en su gran avance.

Después de grabar un tercer álbum en 1968, la banda comenzó a experimentar con su música, trasladándose a los Estados Unidos en 1970 para hacer un disco alternativo llamado Mundodemoniocarne con Oscar Lasprilla en los teclados. Poco después, los Brincos se separaron, dejando atrás una de las experiencias musicales más destacadas de la historia.

38 Special - Hold On Loosely (1981)

"Hold On Loosely" is a 1981 rock song by 38 Special and the first track from their fourth studio album Wild-Eyed Southern Boys. Released as the lead single from the album, the song reached No. 3 on the Billboard Rock Tracks chart and No. 27 on the Billboard Hot 100. It later appeared on their 1987 compilation album Flashback: The Best of 38 Special and their 1999 live album Live at Sturgis. It was the 13th music video to be played on the day that MTV debuted in 1981.

The Beatles - Day Tripper (1965)

"Day Tripper" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles that was released as a double A-side single with "We Can Work It Out" in December 1965. Written primarily by John Lennon, it was credited to the Lennon–McCartney partnership. Both songs were recorded during the sessions for the band's Rubber Soul album. The single topped charts in Britain, Ireland, the Netherlands and Norway. In the United States, "Day Tripper" peaked at number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart while "We Can Work It Out" held the top position. The track is a rock song based around an electric guitar riff and was included in the Beatles' concert set list until their retirement from live performances in late August 1966.

"Carry That Weight" is a song by the Beatles. The song was written by Paul McCartney, but credited to Lennon–McCartney. Released on Abbey Road as the seventh and penultimate part of the long, climactic medley that closes the album, it features unison vocals from all four Beatles (a rarity in their songs). It is preceded by "Golden Slumbers", and segues into "The End".

The middle bridge, featuring brass instruments, electric guitar and vocals, reprises the beginning of "You Never Give Me Your Money", but with different lyrics. The ending also reprises the arpeggiated guitar motif from the end of that track, which is itself similar to that in "Badge" (co-written by Harrison and Eric Clapton) and reminiscent of the figure featured prominently in the George Harrison–written track "Here Comes the Sun".

The Beatles - And Your Bird Can Sing (1966)

"And Your Bird Can Sing" is a song by the Beatles, released on their 1966 album Revolver in the United Kingdom and on Yesterday and Today in the United States. The song was written by John Lennon and credited to Lennon–McCartney. Paul McCartney stated that he helped on the lyrics and attributed the song "80–20" to Lennon. The working title was "You Don't Get Me". Lennon was later dismissive of the track, as he was of many of his compositions at the time, referring to it as "another of my throwaways ... fancy paper around an empty box".

"All You Need Is Love" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles that was released as a non-album single in July 1967. It was written by John Lennon and credited to Lennon–McCartney. The song served as Britain's contribution to Our World, the first live global television link, when the Beatles were filmed performing it at EMI Studios in London on 25 June 1967. The programme was broadcast via satellite and seen by an audience of over 400 million in 25 countries. Lennon's lyrics, which were deliberately simplistic to allow for the show's international audience, captured the utopian sentiments of the Summer of Love era. The single topped sales charts in Britain, the United States and many other countries, and became an anthem for the counterculture's embrace of flower power ideology.

"All My Loving" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles, from the album With the Beatles (1963). It was written by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon–McCartney), and produced by George Martin. Though it was not released as a single in the United Kingdom or the United States, it drew considerable radio airplay, prompting EMI to issue it as the title track of an EP. The song was released as a single in Canada, where it became a number 1 hit. The Canadian single was imported into the US in enough quantities to peak at number 45 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in April 1964.
