KISS - Rock And Roll Over: Wikipedia Album Entry
Rock and Roll Over is the fifth studio album and sixth overall by hard rock band Kiss.
Unlike Destroyer, which was recorded with members of the New York Philharmonic-Symphony Orchestra, Rock and Roll Over was recorded by just Stanley, Frehley, Simmons, and Criss. The album was a return to the more straight-ahead rock sound heard on the group's first three albums.
In order to achieve the required drum sound for Rock and Roll Over, Peter Criss played in a bathroom at the Star Theatre and communicated with the rest of the band via a video link. Criss's vocals are featured on the tracks "Baby Driver" and "Hard Luck Woman." Paul Stanley, who originally wanted the latter song to be sung by Rod Stewart, gave it to Criss, who possessed a similar voice, after Simmons insisted Criss sing the song instead. Although the single did not equal the success of "Beth," it did become another Top 20 single for the group. Rock and Roll Over was the first Kiss album to ship gold, and from there had a meteoric rise to double platinum status.
The original LP release included a replica of the cover art as a set of peel-off stickers and a merchandise form.
It was certified Platinum on January 5, 1977, when it sold 1,000,000 copies and peaked at number 11 on the Billboard pop album chart.
Of all the songs in the album, "Calling Dr. Love" remains a permanent staple on the band's concerts. Like "Beth", "Hard Luck Woman" was retired from the band's set list after Peter Criss' final departure.

KISS - Rock And Roll Over Lyrics
KISS - Take Me Lyrics
Put your hand in my pocket, grab onto my rocket
Feels so good to see you Lucille
Baby got to know, do you want to go
How you gonna make me feel
KISS - Ladies Room Lyrics
Every time it's the same well now
What follows me is my fame
And you're what I need
To play the game ooh yeah
KISS - Baby Driver Lyrics
Go baby driver
Been drivin' on down the road
Oh, what a rider
Carryin' such a heavy load
KISS - Love 'em And Leave 'em Lyrics
My limousine is a-waitin'
And I see you comin' my way, hey, hey, hey
I'm sittin' by the window
And you ask me which hotel I stay in
KISS - Mr. Speed Lyrics
You need lovin', you're lookin' out for new romances
Yeah, it's true, you know you've got to take your chances
When I laugh, well, baby don't you know you can cry
'Cause you ain't enough lady, to keep the master satisfied, yeah
KISS - See You In Your Dreams Lyrics
The party's over, and baby's in the corner
She's all alone for the night
You pick up the phone, you want to go home
Well dry your eyes, it's alright, it's alright
KISS - Makin' Love Lyrics
I just hate when
The girl says wait
I really want her
By my side, don't hesitate
