Live to Win

Stanley last released a solo album in 1978, Paul Stanley, which was officially released as a Kiss album. Comparing the two albums, Stanley said "It's not 1978 anymore... It's certainly the same mentality, and certainly I'm a better singer today. My perspective and where I'm at in my life at this point, and what I've experienced and seen, brings something else to the table that wasn't there then. But I still look back on that album as a really great snapshot of who I was and what I was doing then."{{cite magazine |url=http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/57486/paul-stanley-solo-album-due-in-october |title=Paul Stanley Solo Album Due In October |magazine=Billboard |date=August 18, 2006 |access-date=April 9, 2021}}

Stanley supported the album's release with a club tour in late 2006, with one of the shows released on CD and DVD as One Live Kiss.
