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.

Alan Broadbent was born in Auckland, New Zealand and in 1966, at the age of 19, received a Downbeat Magazine scholarship to attend Berklee College of Music in Boston. In 1969 he was asked to join Woody Herman’s band as his pianist and arranger for 3 years. In 1972 he settled in Los Angeles, beginning a musical relationship with the legendary singer Irene Kral (no relation to Diana Krall). Soon he was also invited into the studio scene as a pianist for the great Nelson Riddle, David Rose and Johnny Mandel. In the early 90s he was asked to be a part of Natalie Cole’s famous “Unforgettable” cd, at which time he toured as her pianist and, a little while later, as her conductor. At this time he wrote an orchestral arrangement for her second video with her dad, “When I Fall In Love”, which won him his first Grammy Award for “best orchestral arrangement accompanying a vocal”.
