Thunderbolts And Lightning is a 2014 bootleg CD by American kabuki rockers Kiss. When Kiss released their Unmasked album in 1980, American audiences had too much of the make-up band so they chose to go elsewhere. In this case, this CD documents their 1980 tour in Australasia, which means Australia and New Zealand, plus bonus tracks taken from a live album that ended up not being released. This set was released by The Godfatherecords.
