It’s no wonder that this song, from Kiss’s 1975 Dressed to Kill album, is often called the “Rock and Roll National Anthem.” Paul Stanley once explained its genesis to writer Bruce Pollock: “'Rock and Roll All Nite' came about because we felt we needed an anthem,” Stanley said, “a song that could be the rallying cry for all of our fans. So I went back to the hotel and came up with the chorus and the melody. Then I went down to see Gene and he came up with the verses.” The song was also partly inspired by Slade’s “Cum on Feel the Noize.”
