Three cheers for the rise and fall of the concept album in the late 70s and early 80s.  This week's show was dedicated to the quickly forgotten by the masses, but loved by the few, "(Music From) The Elder."  There used to be a small controversy about who's arm is on the album cover.  For years KISS claimed it was a hand model hired for the photoshoot, but then a pic of lead man Paul Stanley appeared in 2011 putting it back into dispute.  I personally think Stanley had the pic taken as a joke around the same time of the actual photoshoot  Because, really, why deny it all these years?  You decide:
