Notes (from [https://www.kissconcerthistory.com/1977/1977-0129](https://www.kissconcerthistory.com/1977/1977-0129)):

* Jeanette Frehley flew in and joined Ace for this show.
* Professionally filmed to a standard that in the opinion of the author exceeds the previous year's shows, Cobo '77 is sourced from a 3/4" master tape that surfaced on E-bay in June 2006. That tape was snapped up by a European collector for a bargain $5,000, though the seller, lacking any integrity, immediately started selling DVD copies to others. Once that occurred a free-for-all took place with traders making the video available in as many places as possible for free and reporting the auctions to the E-bay police to get them shutdown.
* Most stunning of the "Rock And Roll Over" tour archive is this incomplete video from the band's final and hastily added third show (Paul references it as the last of the shows during the introduction to "Let Me Go, Rock 'N' Roll"). - It is fitting, perhaps, that this Detroit show is available to collectors, though somewhat sad that the lesser MSG show was featured as a bonus for the KISSology Volume 1 DVD in terms of wider distribution. While incomplete, it is a stunning pro-shot video. Starting with backstage footage of the band heading to the stage (presumably shown on the venue screens), "Detroit Rock City" is joined in progress. The encores are also missing. What is known is that the video for "Beth," from one of the three Cobo shows, was used during the February 10, 1977 broadcast of "The People's Choice" awards show.
