About this episode
Nashville -based guitarist Mike Hutchens is with us this week to talk about his gig with Peter Criss in the 80s . Given that there is so little known about Peter's activities during the mid-1980's, this talk is an eye opener. How did Peter and Stan Penridge decide to base out of Nashville in 1984? How did they choose the band members? Why was the band named Alliance ? Those questions, and many more, are answered by Mike in this discussion. Peter Criss in the 80s The 1984-1985 era of Peter Criss' life is a bit of a mystery. Reuniting with songwriting partner Stan "Doc" Penridge, they formed a band dubbed The Desperate Men in Nashville that had a much different sound than what KISS fans were accustomed to. Additionally, the band name changed to Alliance in the process. They would make their live debut at a radio festival in Nashville titled One for the Sun . Also on the bill, RATT and Alcatrazz ; but this band sounded much different. After the Music City debut, Alliance would go on to perform just a handful of dates after recording some demos. What caused the band to end so quickly? Mike sheds light on the subject. We want to thank Mike Hutchens for this in-depth discussion of Peter Criss in the 80s.
