Bass Cover #130: GENE SIMMONS - Radioactive

This is easily my favorite KISS solo album of all four... and “Radioactive” is the most KISS-like song there :) The bass has been recorded by Neil Jason and even though it wasn't Gene's playing this part is very much in his style. Amazing part! He played a completely different one during “The Return of Kiss” tour in 1979 which was an obvious step since the live version of “Radioactive” was a lot faster and harder.

Keep in mind that the song is almost in the standard tuning. Almost because it's somewhere between G, D, A, E and Gb, Db, Ab, Eb. Go figure why...
