Various Artists – A World With Heroes: A KISS Tribute For Cancer Care (2013), 2 CD

To mark the 40th anniversary of KISS, rock journalist Mitch Lafon has gathered some of the greatest rock musicians for a tribute album.

‘A World With Heroes’ features unique performances of incredible KISS songs, with pledges made through being used to make this amazing tribute come to life and to benefit The Vaudreuil-Soulanges Palliative Cancer Care hospice (Lafon’s father-in-law passed away there peacefully on January 4th, 2013).
