Alice Cooper

[rpchurch]

Anyone in here a fan of The 'Coop? You better be!!!

[Lammert]

Some of his older work is pretty good, I have the Constrictor album and Brutal Planet.

I bought Brutal Planet the day it came out, I just happened to be in the music store... and I liked it right away.

[Wheatjedi]

My first exposure to Alice Cooper was in 1986 (at the age of 10) when I saw the one-sheet for Jason Lives in a small movie theater in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. I was already a Friday fan, but I had never heard of Alice Cooper in my whole life. I thought, "Why is a girl doing music for Friday the 13th?" Remember... I was only 10. I saw the music video for "He's Back" later that summer, and my mind was opened....

That is really funny....and I can say the same thing happened to me...but I was only 8 y.o. and when I found out Alice wasn't a girl I got kinda disappointed....but then I heard the JL soundtrack....suddenly I was no longer disappointed at all. :D

[Wheatjedi]

Now I don't feel quite so silly.... :)

[girlychaos]

Remember...I was only 8 y.o. and I don't even live in the US! :p

I found out earlier than you did!! :D

[Wheatjedi]

Yeah... but I was very sheltered for the first 11 years of my life, so my finding out at 10 would have been like you finding out when you were 17. So there! :p :D

[girlychaos]

I'm still ahead... :p :D

[Wheatjedi]

Nope. Sorry. Wheat isn't the King of Gender-Confusion Based on First Names. Not anymore.

All hail the queen! :)

[girlychaos]

No way!! :p

[Wheatjedi]

Yes way. Muffin says so, and you do not want to get her riled up. Remember what she did to Paul....:eek:

[girlychaos]

LOL...here we go again! :D

[Utellme]

Whats up with Alice's forth coming album along came a spider ? It was suppose to come out in May well it did'nt shoesalesman do you know ?

[Shoesalesman]

Who's Alice?

[Utellme]

Vincent Furnier Feb 4 1948 son of a minister got his name from a quija board does that answer your question ?

[rpchurch]

Whats up with Alice's forth coming album along came a spider ? It was suppose to come out in May well it did'nt shoesalesman do you know ?

I don't know. They always do a shitty job of marketing him. Is he even still on the New West label? :confused:

[Shoesalesman]

Ouija board, you say? Hmmm. :confused: Rings a bell, oh yeah...

Okay, down to bidness... Along Came A Spider is delayed because Alice is waiting for a specific producer to be available, and that guy is working on something else right now. There seems to be enough material written to make a double album, but that's speculation right now. They project a Summer 2008 release.

More speculation? Word going around is this elusive producer could be Bob Ezrin (of earlier Coop fame, along with Pink Floyd and KISS), which would make me pitch a tent right here and now. :bang:

The Psycho Drama tour is winding through Europe now and headed into the States for some shows, but alas, no Western Canada dates yet.

[rpchurch]

Damn! That would be good news. Hope he makes it happen. I think Coop definitely has some fire left in him (a la John R. Cash). I personally can't wait.

Thanks for the news.

[Shoesalesman]

No worries, chum. :cool:

[Autobotsdie]

I like Alice Cooper. The thing that made me mad was when MTV didn't show the uncensored version of Poison because it had a topless girl in it.

[Shoesalesman]

I like Alice Cooper. The thing that made me mad was when MTV didn't show the uncensored version of Poison because it had a topless girl in it.

You can find this video on youtube somewhere I think, or on the VHS 'Video Trash'. MTV also didn't promote the Freedom video from Raise Your Fist And Yell, as with some of the vids from Hey Stoopid. Much Music in Canada seemed to play more Alice than MTV.

[Rich]

I own this Alice Cooper box set called The Life and Crimes of Alice Cooper that has a four cd best of his entire career (and features the songs in Jason Lives) and it comes with a book too. It is damn awesome!

[CanadianFonzie]

wow I forgot I haven't posted here yet

I enjoy Alice Cooper alot, but I would call myself a fan, especially compared to alot of members on this forum, Shoey comes to mind

Poison has my favourite lyrics to it as I've stated numerously, and Trash is my favourite album by him, I honestly never heard it until last May, I was at HMV lookin to buy the Quiet Riot album Metal Health that they had on special buy one get on free kinda thing, and I figured I'd get Trash as the "free" one, and even though I like more songs off Metal Health, the songs that I like off Trash I like a whole lot more

[Shoesalesman]

Trash is a great release, Fonz. One of his more commercial albums, but a cool one nonetheless. :D

Rich... Life & Crimes, indeed, is a MUST HAVE for all die-hards, although it's pretty expensive. I like Hard Rock Summer, Look At You Over There Ripping The Sawdust From My Teddy Bear, and Hands Of Death (with Rob Zombie).

[Autobotsdie]

So what does Alice Cooper do now. Is he planning another record in the future?

[Utellme]

Alice is on tour as we speak.Yes Along came a spider is his next album.Life and crimes is awesome.As far as the Trash album the 2 albums that came before it was better imo Constrictor 1986 and Raise your fist and yell 1987.

[Autobotsdie]

IMO I think they should bring back guys like Alice Cooper and others for one huge rock show.

[Deathscythe]

I'm a fan of him, my favorite Cooper song is Poison.

Fun Fact: Jason Lives is what got me interested in Cooper.

[Utellme]

What Alice Cooper cd's do you have ?

[Shoesalesman]

All of them. ;)

Picked up One Halloween Night (1978 bootleg) at a second hand record shop a few years ago, plus I have a couple of Constrictor/Raise Your Fist And Yell booties from ages ago AND some Dragontown live stuff.

[rpchurch]

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!!! Just got Coop tickets to see him on Sept. 13th. Yay!! This'll be the first time I've been able to catch him on tour since 1987!! That was my very first concert. Alice Cooper and Motorhead. Rocked my socks.

I can't wait. And, my buddy's mom works for the local radio station, so there is a possibility I'll get to meet the Man himself. Then, a week later, we go to see Van Halen. Which, while it could be incredibly cheesy, has the potential to be f'n awesome, if Roth can keep his trap shut, and his trunk out of the white powder.

[Shoesalesman]

You'll like meeting Alice, if you get the chance. Classy guy!!!

[rpchurch]

You'll like meeting Alice, if you get the chance. Classy guy!!!

Yeah, and I've only been waiting about 22 years. Well, if it happens, or not, I can't wait to see that show.

Now, I'm trying to think of what to lug along, to ask him to autograph - IF I do get to meet him. I've got my tour program from the 87 tour or some odd bit of vinyl (I'm thinking Flush the Fashion, but I'd love to be able to find a nice copy of DaDa, prior to the show).

Or, nothing, and just enjoy the experience.

Any thoughts?

[Shoesalesman]

You'll catch him in the most unusual places, this guy. He collects watches, and I remember seeing him at a local pawn shop last time he was here before he was whisked away again by his people. Some have commented that they've caught him at the mall, golf stores, he LOVES seeing what the local courses look like...

There's so many places he likes to go.

He told us he'll sign most stuff we have because he says it lowers the price of his signature on ebay. Go figure.

He signed my huge black wall flag (remember those from the 80s?), my Billion Dollar Babies Album, and my Hey Stoopid shirt that had stage blood on it from the previous tour.

Good fortune and happy hunting, mate.

Thanks, Shoe. Yeah, they've got some FANTASTIC golf courses in Myrtle Beach, so that probably explains it. That is pretty funny about the Ebay thing. Makes sense. I hear that is why Tom Waits despises giving autographs - aside from charity. That does have to suck to have to think, is this guys a fan, or is he trying to make a buck?" Some people will f' it up for all of us. :-)) I'll keep you posted, and send you a link to pictures (if I get to take any).

Cool. Can't wait. :D

[sammysausage76]

I wish I could meet Alice...almost did twice, once at a show in Niagara Falls at the Fallsview Casino, I was exchanging my American money into Canadian (at the casino) and the lady asked if I was there for the concert and told me that security told her Alice was out on the floor somewhere. I looked all over the place and could not find him. The second time I was on a radio show and had to go against some lady to try and get backstage passes to a show in Rochester, which they gave to the lady!! She cried which I think helped her, and she was older than me. I hope they have those meet and greet passes for sale next year, by then I should hopefully be able to afford them (I will be graduating from college this Spring, and soon thereafter should have a job).

But anyway I love Alice and have all of his CDs and DVDs along with some boots...and will see him again on the 19th w/ Heaven and Hell (Sabbath) at Darien Lake.

[Shoesalesman]

Good on ya, ss76. :D

Looks like Alice may take a break from touring in October, he just added some more dates in November.

Ex-guitarist, Damon Johnson, got up to do a tune or two last week with Alice and the boys - he was wearing a Merle Haggard shirt, obviously fully aware of what good music is. ;) He's doing some country music now.

[sammysausage76]

Man...I am really hoping he gets in the studio soon to record new music!! I need it!!

[Shoesalesman]

January still seems like the plan for this. It's really not that far away now. I still hope he has enough material to go for a double album.

[sammysausage76]

How sweet would a double album be?! I could only hope for such a thing!! I would also hope he incorporates more of the songs in the tour.

[Shoesalesman]

Looks like the big board at STUK was hacked (?) and it's gone for the time being. :cry:

Reminds me a bit of the old fridaythe13thfilms board situation, although not quite the same circumstances. :(

Anyway... I would LOVE the new Along Came A Spider tour to be like Brutally Live, in that the majority of the songs on Brutal Planet were used on the tour. I love the greatest hits tours, but a full-fledged NEW tour would be the cat's ass.

[zombie extra 3]

I love Constrictor and I have a best of (Mascara and Monsters). I also have the Nightmare Returns concert DVD (1987 concert). I want to get Raise Your Fist and Yell and his older concert DVD, Welcome to my Nightmare (1975 concert).

[Shoesalesman]

All of it is good! :D

His 'Good To See You Again, Alice Cooper' DVD is classic Billion Dollar Babies. To watch it with the commentary is the funniest thing. Coop is such a ham. :p

[Shoesalesman]

Just read that there may be a Superbowl commercial with Alice and Richard Simmons shown during the game. I'm afraid to see what that would look like. No I'm not... BRING IT ON!!!! GRR!!!!

FYI - Alice turns 60 on February 4th.

[Shoesalesman]

Seems like the commercial involves Alice and a snake on a dark road in the middle of the night... and an appoaching car. It's for Bridgestone tires if I'm not mistaken.

Wonder if Richard Simmons is the driver? :confused:

[alicefan696]

yeah, that is correct and the Superbowl is in Alice's hometown the day before his 60th b-day, would be cool if Alice was at the game, and I am a huge Alice fan and have all of his cd's and dvd's, that would be cool if his new album was two disc

[Shoesalesman]

I have all of his shit too. Been a fan for over twenty years.

He should be recording the new album as we speak.

Wonder what kind of party he'll have for the big 60. You know folks like Rob Zombie and Slash will put something on. It'll be big nonetheless.

[alicefan696]

yeah, only two day away now, Iron Maiden's Live After Death dvd comes out on the 4 or 5 too I think

[Shoesalesman]

I'm celebrating Alice's birthday tomorrow - I have the house to myself and, besides Super Bowl, I have nothing to do but blast out some Coop tunes. I'll start with Love It To Death and take it from there.

Monday, I'll blast the Coop at work. Haha!

[alicefan696]

yeah, I have been listening to some Alice today and got one of my Alice shirts on to celebrate the occasion, what album you on now SS?

[Shoesalesman]

Happy 60th birthday, Alice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw the Super Bowl commercial with Alice in it... if you blink you'll miss him. Pretty funny though.

[alicefan696]

yeah, i know, he was only in it for like 3 sec.

[Shoesalesman]

I sure wanted Richard Simmons to get what was coming to him at the end. lol.

[alicefan696]

yeah, most people prob. did

[Shoesalesman]

Still no definite date on the remastered 16 disc box set that's apparently in the works. 16 discs seems a bit much, but it looks like whoever's doing it is putting some thought into it at least.

[Scarecrow]

Definitly adore Alice Cooper, fantastic music and a brilliant individual. Always hilarious in any interviews he appears in.


- Scarecrow

[alicefan696]

yeah, I will be getting this box set when it is finally released

[Shoesalesman]

Definitly adore Alice Cooper, fantastic music and a brilliant individual. Always hilarious in any interviews he appears in.


- Scarecrow

He seems to be right at home on commercials and TV interviews. Classy guy! :cool:

[alicefan696]

yeah, he is good at that stuff

[Utellme]

Shoe any news on this box set specs links etc ?

[Shoesalesman]

Shoe any news on this box set specs links etc ?

Nothing yet. Probably not until the new album's out in stores and maybe a while after that.

[Utellme]

Ok whens new album due out any specs ,links on that ?

[Shoesalesman]

I THINK Alice signed with Roadrunner Records and the album is due out in the Fall months. The new producer is a guy who has worked with Ozzy, Marilyn Manson, and a few other noteworthy performers. More news to come.

[Scarecrow]

He seems to be right at home on commercials and TV interviews. Classy guy! :cool:

I remember when he was on the Paul O'Grady show and he was just talking about Golf... he's very intelligent and really surprises people who make judgments base don his music / the image.

If you ever get a chance to hear his radio show 'Nights With Alice Cooper' he really has a twisted sense of humor but retains his intelligence and deportment. One word sums him up... CLASSY!!!!!

[Utellme]

I know for us die hard Alice fans this is tough to do but lets just say if you had to pick one which one would it be. Just for fun ok heres a match up to pick these are albums not the songs.

From the inside vs Goes to hell

First one to 3 wins. I pick FTI

Can't pick a fave. It's like asking me which of my children I love more than the rest.

[Utellme]

Yeah i know Shoe but maybe it will wake up this thread a little.

All though i like all Alice material there is some i like better than others.

Shoe it just pains me to know theres still Alice music that i need and i will never get.

[Shoesalesman]

Along Came A Spider will be out soon.

Watched Monster Dog last night, what a cheese factory but goddamn what a great flick!!!

[Utellme]

The thing that pisses me off the most about Monster Dog is its not Alice Coopers voice why6 ? why would they do such a thing ?

[CanadianFonzie]

I'm aiming to buy some of Alice's more obscure albums like From The Inside and Flush and Fashion, and maybe some better known albums like Constrictor or Hey Stoopid, for some reason I've never bothered getting his albums but last spring I got Trash, and what an album, I mean for years Poison had been among my all time favourite songs, but I had never heard the other great songs from that album, like Bed of Nails, House of Fire and Spark in the Dark

so I'm hoping to finally release my inner Alice...though I doubt I'll ever become some major fan of his

[Shoesalesman]

The thing that pisses me off the most about Monster Dog is its not Alice Coopers voice why6 ? why would they do such a thing ?

It was a Spanish-set movie and the voices were redone to sound more American. Not sure why Alice's was redone... he IS American. LOL.

Fonz, we all have a little Alice is us, big or little. ;)

And finally, Xmas will be coming early for me this year: Alice plays the Nothern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium in Edmonton on September 27th. :bang:

[Parasomniaa]

And finally, Xmas will be coming early for me this year: Alice plays the Nothern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium in Edmonton on September 27th. :bang:

I'm going to see the main man in July 19th, when he plays the Rockweekend festival in Kilafors - Sweden.
Looks like Xmas comes early for me too!

Muscle of love 73
Lace and whiskey 77
Special forces 81
Zipper catches skin 82
Da Da 84

Raise your fist and yell 1987 Imo Alices most under rated album ever ,with far better Alice material that blows the socks of the bubble gummed Desmond Child Trash album.

[CanadianFonzie]

out of what you mentioned, I'm only interested in DaDa and Lace and Whiskey

[Abraxas]

His voice was dubbed in Monster Dog because that was the only way he would agree to do the movie, he was not too thrilled about it and hoped that it would only get seen in some far off country.

I got it on dvd sometime ago, after having it on vhs for many years, I was also able to get "The Nightmare" on dvd, a rare 70's tv special with Vincent Price.

I think all of Alice's albums are great, Im very fond of the little known of ones, like DaDa, Zipper Catches skin, and Special Forces.

Ive been an Alice Cooper fan, I don't really know, since the early 80's, 82, 83, some time around there, the first album I heard was "Killer" oh man, what a mind altering introduction.

[Utellme]

Why would Alice not want his voice in it ? And i would think Alice would of been thrilled to star in a horror movie even if its B rated which he stated before are some of his favorite horror movies.

As for his Killer album that album is awesome.

And CFonzie if you like Trash you better prepare yourself for DADA cause there nothing alike.Also another album you might want to consider is Raise your fist and Constrictor.

[CanadianFonzie]

Alice is coming to Oshawa...I didn't know people still play in Oshawa...lol

[Shoesalesman]

Got second row on the floor for Coop in Red Deer and Calgary, seats further back in Edmonton, row 25. Gonna make it a Cooper weekend!!!!!! Three shows in four days!!!!

So far he's got about 25 shows across Canada.

[CanadianFonzie]

and Toronto doesn't seem to be one of them:o...atleast not that I've seen...I mean he's playing Oshawa and Hamilton...I find that funny

well I'm seeing Motley crue as well as Sabbath/Priest in the summer, so that will make up for it

[Shoesalesman]

Got row 3 on the floor for Lethbridge, Alberta. SHWEET!!!
Four Coop shows in four nights.

[Lance Lives]

I heard that Poison song on the radio today, I had forgotten how much I liked it. Then about 3 songs later I heard No More Mr. Nice Guy...it was weird.

[Shoesalesman]

Funny you should mention that... I'm listening to Poison as I type this.

[CanadianFonzie]

I'm listening to Poison too:side:

[Shoesalesman]

I know. You're hiding behind my drapes, which are beside the stereo.

[CanadianFonzie]

actually I was making a joke referring to the band Poison

but I prefer the song Poison above any Poison song, I've said this numerous times that Poison is among my favourite songs, probably in my top 10

[Shoesalesman]

Poison is good, but Spark In The Dark and I'm Your Gun (from the same album) are my faves from TRASH.

[CanadianFonzie]

Poison, Spark In The Dark, Bed Of Nails and House of Fire, in that order, are my favourites off that album

[Utellme]

Ive been an Alice Cooper fan, I don't really know, since the early 80's, 82, 83, some time around there, the first album I heard was "Killer" oh man, what a mind altering introduction.

Killer is awesome all 8 songs rock. I like Halo of flies off that album a lot.

[Shoesalesman]

Halo Of Flies is devine.

I'm also partial to Jackknife Johnny, Shoe Salesman, Raped & Freezin', Detroit City, Former Lee Warmer, I Love America, Pain... every album has a great rif, lyric, track, concept, whatever. I love 'em all.

BTW, Lethbridge just put up a fourth row seat on the floor on the City Of Lethbridge website. It'll be gone by the time I log outta here.

[Shoesalesman]

If you check ticketmaster there are Meet And Greet Ticket Packages for Alice's October 2nd show in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan for $59.50. Not sure if any are left.

Didn't see any Meet And Greets for the rest of the shows in Canada.

[Shoesalesman]

Meet & Greet packages through ticketmaster relisted at upper $400.00 for Canada shows.

[Utellme]

Halo Of Flies is divine. When i went and seen Alice live Dragon town tour he had his 2 guitar players and Eric Singer all playing drums during this song truly AWESOME !!!!

I'm also partial to Raped & Freezin', , Former Lee Warmer, I Love America, Pain... every album has a great rif, lyric, track, concept, whatever. I love 'em all. Yeah i like these as well i wish Alice would do some of these live or even a live studio album of all the obscure songs.Another song i like alot is Tag your it sounds like its about Michael Myers imo.

[Shoesalesman]

Tag You're It definitely has Halloween references in it. Not anyone's top five songs I'm sure, but the tune packs a punch.

[Utellme]

Tag You're It definitely has Halloween references in it. Not anyone's top five songs I'm sure, but the tune packs a punch.
Another very under rated Alice song and he could of done a heck of a video for that song also.

Here some more for you shoe listed below

Headlines

Guilty

Space pirates

Im flash

[Shoesalesman]

Those are great songs too.

Clones and You Look Good In Rags would be great additions to Coop's setlist.

[Utellme]

Road rats , Its hot tonight, Lace and whiskey, Ubangi stomp, King of the silver screen

Road rats were a pack and the roads are home

[Shoesalesman]

Hey, Utellme, you ever get to see Roadie? Great Alice clips, enough to make a poor boy cry.

[CanadianFonzie]

I watched the Poison music video again for the first time in years...and I love that video;)

[Utellme]

Hey, Utellme, you ever get to see Roadie? Great Alice clips, enough to make a poor boy cry.
yes i have the dvd Shoe

Shoe have you ever seen any of these Alice videos ?

How you gonna see me now
Be crool to your schruel
Hes back
Freedom
I got a line on you
Its me

[Shoesalesman]

The only one I haven't seen from that list is 'It's Me'. I hear it's on youtube - I may check it out!!! Just won an ebay auction for a Neal Smith autographed poster. Sweet!!!

Out of all the drummers who've played with Alice... Neal's my favorite.

[Utellme]

I would like to see Alice release a cd set with these never released tracks.



Dress (AC)

That one is something of a mystery. I have some hand written sheet music for this song with a few lyrics. I estimate it being written around pre-1970. I think it is credited to Alice Cooper on the sheet music and I think that indicates it was written by all five members (as in the songwriting for the songs on Pretties For You. Alice had no particular recollection of the title. I know of no recording of it.
(Renfield)

Hello, Is Anyone Home? (Cooper, Bruce, Dunaway, Buxton)

Also listed as "Anyone Home" No Further Info.

Frontal Labotomy (Dennis Dunaway, Glen Buxton)

Exists in very rough demo form only.

School's Back In

A "goofy" blues song by the original band.

Locked Up Lullaby (Alice Cooper/ Bruce Roberts)

This was co-written by Bruce Roberts and from the 'From The Inside' sessions. It was considered for the box but was deemed not crucial enough. The box was is kinda "ballad-heavy" already and this would have been yet another ballad. If Rhino were to do a special reissue of FTI, I wouldn't doubt that it could be included there.
(Renfield (paraphrased), December 1998)

This song was performed live on the US TV-show “TV Soundstage” in January 1979, with Bruce Roberts doing the vocals. This is the TV-show that also included Alice and Bruce Robets performing “Millie and Billie”, accompanied by a piano.

Menagerie - (Alice Cooper/Alan Lee Gordon)

An AWFUL song which was written and recorded in demo from around the time of Goes To Hell.

Don`t Blame It On Me (Alice Cooper/Robert William Athis (Kane Roberts))

This was written for Constrictor and recorded in demo form.

Drain The Vain (Alice Cooper/Robert William Athis (Kane Roberts))

This was written for Constrictor and recorded in demo form.

If You Don`t Like It (Alice Cooper/Kane Roberts)

Written for Constrictor and recorded in demo form.

Nobody Move (Alice Cooper/Beau Hill)

This was written for Constrictor and recorded in finished form. I (Renfield) have a test pressing of Constrictor that actually includes this song.

Bad Girl In Love

Raise Your Fist Period

Low Class Reunion (Alice Cooper/Desmond Child)

This was demo recorded for 'Trash' album but didn't make the final choice.

The Ballad Of Alice Cooper (Jon Bon Jovi/Alice Cooper?)

Demoed By both Jon And Alice around Trash.

'The Ballad of Alice Cooper' was actually demoed by Alice. Both Jon and Alice did their own respective demos of the song. Jon sang a verse and chorus of the song live on the Rockline radio show. IMO the title is rather lame. Titles of demos are easily and sometimes changed by the time they are done for an album.
(Renfield, October 1995)

The Ballad of Alice Cooper (Jon Bon Jovi)

Used to be a billion dollar baby
I used to be the eyes that made you scream
Used to be the one that I could talk to
But now there's something else [Alice?], there's you and me
I used to think I really didn't need you
But I used to think that only women bleed
And I ain't gonna cry no more
I've been to hell and back before
Watch me as I walk out the door
Because Alice doesn't live here anymore

Love Transfusion

Recorded by Iggy Pop for the 'Shocker' Soundtrack, Alice also recorded a demo of the song.

Take It Like A Woman (Alice Cooper/Desmond Child)

This was written for Hey Stoopid and not recorded. It is NOT the same song that appeared on 'Brutal Planet'.

Chemical Reaction (?)

Written and demoed for Hey Stoopid.

Alice Cooper Extended Versions


Shoe what is this ?

Extended versions is a taping of the Trashes The World video (the audio) on a CD. I highly recommend it.

One month until the new album, Along Came A Spider, is due in the US. The first track, Vengeance Is Mine, is out and about already.

Three more months until Coop comes to Alberta!!!!!!! :shy:

[Shoesalesman]

There's a site where you can hear the first 30 seconds of each song from Along Came A Spider. It's legit and okayed by management (NOT a leaked, illegal copy of the album), but I can't remember the site address. If I come across it again, I'll provide more information.

[CanadianFonzie]

they have a trailer for the album on youtube, I have yet to watch it though

[Shoesalesman]

The album's getting a love-hate feeling on a few Alice sites. There doesn't seem to be middle ground; folks who've reviewed internet-leaked copies of the new album either REALLY love it or REALLY hate it.

Not sure what to take from this, but at the end of July I'll find out for myself. I've been offered illegal copies of the album, to which I refused. I'll hear it when it comes out in the stores.

[SoulOnFire]

The new album is good, at least IMO. I personally think it sounds almost like Dirty Diamonds recorded during the "lost albums" era.

I decided to listen to his whole discography one album at a time in order. My conclusion so far? Pretties and Easy Action are ok. Love It to Death and Killers are great. School's Out is actually kinda weak. Billion Dollar Babies is one of the greatest albums ever. Muscle of Love is weak. Welcome to My Nightmare is good. Goes to Hell is decent. Lace and Whiskey is...odd, I couldn't get into it. From the Inside is good. Flush the Fashion is good. Special Forces, Zipper Catches Skin, and Dada are all great, with Dada being one of my favorite Alice albums. I'm now on Constrictor, which is such a jarring depature from Dada. I like it though. Up next is Raise Your Fist and Yell.

My top three Alice albums:
Billion Dollar Babies
Dada
Trash

I really can't list my favorite songs, but I can say "It Rained All Night" is in my top five.

[Shoesalesman]

Alice has the whole album offered for listening on his myspace page. Every song from the new album. And I'm still holding out until Along Came A Spider is officially released in a week and a bit.

[Utellme]

[QUOTE=Shoesalesman;186522]Extended versions is a taping of the Trashes The World video (the audio) on a CD. I highly recommend it. Oh ive had this for years thanks though Shoe.

One month until the new album, Along Came A Spider, is due in the US. The first track, Vengeance Is Mine, is out and about already. Where can any videos from this album be viewed.


Soul ,Raise your fist is awesome Hey Stoopid is very good also and i hope this new album is a lot better than dirty diamonds.

[Shoesalesman]

Less than a week now. Can't wait to put on Along Came A Spider on the discman.
Less than three months (closer to two) until Coop tours here.
2008 is turning out to be a great year!!!!

[Utellme]

Ive heard a few songs off Alices new album and again they sound flat.


The last good Alice album with emotion and punch was Brutal planet.

[Shoesalesman]

Along Came A Spider's been out for a week. A decent album, not profound by any means, seems to be geared more for the younger audience. It has a wicked tune (Vengeance Is Mine), a few of good rockers (The One That Got Away, Wake The Dead, I Am The Spider) and the rest fall into the "okay" category.

A good concept, still sounds a bit like Dirty Diamonds to me though. Worth the purchase.

[CanadianFonzie]

I've listened to some of the new album, wasn't impressed at all, personally, but than again I wasn't expecting to be

[Shoesalesman]

It's not what most folks were expecting. Heard he may do a few songs from the new album on tour this Fall.

[CanadianFonzie]

than I'm glad I'm not seeing him:p

I'm kidding, actually I wouldn't mind going to an Alice show...but I never have enough ambission

[Shoesalesman]

He puts on a good show, kinda like the circus. lol.

Apparently there will be a few new vids from the new album coming out soon. Piggy D is involved with them.

[CanadianFonzie]

he hasn't released a video since like...2000 or so right? I think it was the Brutal Planet album (pardon anything wrong about this post)

[Shoesalesman]

Yeah, he had the Gimme video, methinks. He's had the 2005 Dirty Diamonds live video since then.

[ChildrenoftheDamned]

Personally I loved Along Came A Spider. I picked it up the day it came out and listened to it in it's entirety at least 4 or 5 times. May not be 'impressive' but I still enjoyed it.

[Brett H.]

All right, Cooper fans, explain.

In The Dirt, the first time Nikki Sixx met Alice Cooper he said that Alice opened the door and he walked out through a huge cloud of smoke. Nikki assumed it was weed (I assume), when Alice Introduced himself, yet in the next sentence in the book, he comments "it was only later that I figured out what that smoke was." Anyone know what this means?

Hopefully Alice Cooper isn't a hookah fan or something because that would make the story so much less interesting.

[Shoesalesman]

When Sixx met Alice it was 1983 (or around there). Alice was making the Zipper Catches Skin album and one of the tracks was called Tag, You're It. During this song, he sings "You see a can, it's aerosol, you grab the hair spray and light it in his face."

Now the smoke could be from a "possible" prop used in the studio - Alice has used many props while recording (for example, using a straightjacket and being under a pile of folding chairs during Ballad Of Dwight Fry on the Love It To Death album).

Keep in mind I could be smoking some mean crack and have absolutely no idea if this is factual or not, but I too have pondered over this for a long while and this is the best I've come up with thus far.

[Utellme]

Tag your it is a awesome song the song should of had a video or in one of the Halloween movies imo. Maybe one of Alices most underated songs he ever made maybe.


As far as the new album sadly i think all Alice has left is live shows cause his studio albums keep getting weaker and weaker with his last good album being Brutal Planet.

I thought there was another Alice box set coming out has anyone heard anything about this ?

[CanadianFonzie]

I bought Constrictor today, WOW what an album, I question Kane Roberts' cliche'd guitar work but than I look that the album was made in '86, but what an amazing album

[zombie extra 3]

I bought Constrictor today, WOW what an album, I question Kane Roberts' cliche'd guitar work but than I look that the album was made in '86, but what an amazing album Good album. My favorite tracks are Teenage Frankenstein, Simple Disobedience, The World Needs Guts, and He's Back (The Man Behind the Mask). The World Needs Guts is probably my favorite song on that album.

[kiss_armyman1]

Thats what makes you so fun dude! I cant wait for another chance to see THE COOP!

[CanadianFonzie]

Good album. My favorite tracks are Teenage Frankenstein, Simple Disobedience, The World Needs Guts, and He's Back (The Man Behind the Mask). The World Needs Guts is probably my favorite song on that album.

I like every song but Thrill My Gorilla...don't know my favourite though, maybe Life And Death Of The Party

[ChildrenoftheDamned]

I love the Constrictor album. I agree with you CanadianFonzie I think Life And Death Of the Party is one of my favorite songs off that album besides of course Teenage Frankenstein, He's Back (The Man Behind the Mask) and Simple Disobedience.

[CanadianFonzie]

that album is great, just something about Kane Roberts I have to complain about, luckily he spiffed up greatly for the Trash album

[Utellme]

that album is great, just something about Kane Roberts I have to complain about, luckily he spiffed up greatly for the Trash album

What do you mean by Kane spiffed up ? He was only involved with one song on that album.

[CanadianFonzie]

was he? that's probably why, lol, I knew he played on the album, I just thought it was the whole album...which song was it he played on?

[Utellme]

Bed of nails.


If you like Constrictor wait to you listen to Raise your fist and yell its probably the most underated album in music history and i really mean that.

[CanadianFonzie]

well Bed Of Nails is my second favourite song off that album, next to Poison, but that's an unfair advantage concidering Poison is one of my all time favourite songs

and I've never even heard of Raise Your Fist And Yell, so it must be underrated, lol

[Shoesalesman]

I thought there was another Alice box set coming out has anyone heard anything about this ?


Not sure but it's bound to be a great one.

Okay, three more days until 'Coop Weekend'; got tix for four shows in Alberta, starting with Red Deer on the 26th and ending in Calgary on the 29th. :bang:

Honestly, this is going to be like following the circus around the prairies. Just me, a few cronies and the open road.
ADDED:
and I've never even heard of Raise Your Fist And Yell, so it must be underrated, lol


Alice has a song Prince Of Darkness (from Raise Your Fist And Yell) in the movie of the same name. He had a cameo where he put a bike frame through some dude's chest. :shy:

[Utellme]

Also Freddy Krueger is on 2 songs on Raise your fist and yell. Lock me up and Roses on white lace

[DistantJ]

I was lucky enough to get to go to an Alice Cooper concert. It was the one artist I had always wanted to see more than anybody. Amazingly, I also got to see Joan Jett and the Blackhearts and Motorhead in the same gig. It was amazing stuff. He hung himself and all sorts, and played ALL of the important songs, old and new.

I'm not worthy!

[CanadianFonzie]

I purchased From The Inside, I really like it even though it's different from what I'm used to, I don't have a favourite but the title track would probably be my least favourite off the album

[Utellme]

From the Inside is a crazy album.

[CanadianFonzie]

I just can't figure out the ending of the song Bille and Millie

[sammysausage76]

I absolutley love Coop, and lately I have been listening to a lot of Flush the Fashion, which in my opinion is a very underrated album. I really wish he would play some of these songs live, at least Clones!

[Utellme]

Alice has and does play Clones live every now and then.I like Clones,Pain,Dance yourself to death.

Also after hearing some of the new Alice i like it.

[CanadianFonzie]

I bought Flush the Fashion about a month ago, it starts off not bad, pretty good actually, I really like the song Pain, but the albums goes down by the ending

[Utellme]

That era 78-83 was rough for Alice not until 1986 is Alice back with Constrictor and Raise your fist and yell.

[CanadianFonzie]

but I really did like From The Inside, and I'm still intersted in getting Dada

[Utellme]

Wait to you here I love america off of DADA , Former Lee Warner is a cool song off that album also.

[CanadianFonzie]

I just hope it's better than Flush The Fashion

[Utellme]

I just hope it's better than Flush The Fashion

Dont get your hopes up.

[CanadianFonzie]

haha well thanks for the warning

[Utellme]

Fonz What Alice albums do you have ? Or what ones have you listen to ?

[CanadianFonzie]

I have, chronoligically, From The Inside, Flush The Fashion, Constrictor and Trash

I don't have a favourite of the 4, I'd have to say Trash only cause of Poison, as I've stated enough times on this thread, Poison is one of my favourite songs ever written, probably my favourite song lyrically

[Utellme]

The following Alice albums are ones worth checking out imo.

Love it to death 71
Killer 71
Billion dollar babies 73
Welcome to my nightmare 75
Raise your fist and yell 87
Hey stoopid 91
The last temptation 94

[CanadianFonzie]

I'm actually not interested in pre-From The Inside stuff, it's too raw for my liking, but Raise Your Fist and Yell and Hey Stoopid are already on my list

[Utellme]

You may like The last temptation 94 Fonzie it has Chris Cornell and Tommy Shaw on it. Good album imo.

[CanadianFonzie]

oo Tommy Shaw:D

[Shoesalesman]

Hey folks! Long time it's been.

Alice is doing his 2009 tour I believe in the summer, old guitarist Damon Johnson MAY be taking the place of Jason Hook for some dates. More news to come I'm sure.

[Utellme]

I would like to see Alice do a live studio album with the following songs and special guest singers.Let me know what you think.

1.levity ball
2.Return of the spiders
3.Black juju
4.Sun arise
5.Road rats
6.King of the silver screen
7.Pain
8.Im flash
9.Space pirates
10.I am the future (from the film 1984)
11.Tag your it sounds like something for a Halloween movie
12.All strapped up
13.No tricks
14.I love america
15.Former lee warner
16.Identity crisis
17.See me in the mirror
18.I got a line on you
19.Clowns will eat me
20.Hard rock summer (in F13th part 6)
21.Hands of death

Special guest Marlyn Manson,Corey Slipknot,John Bush Anthrax,Gwar

None of these have ever been played live by Alice probably for good reason on some of them.But as a die hard Alice fan i like the obscure songs also. We have all heard 18,schools out hundreds of times and there great but i think a album like this would be cool.

[Shoesalesman]

To see (or hear I suppose) Hard Rock Summer live would make my day. :shy: Don't know how a non-Kane Roberts guitarist (someone like Keri Kelli or Ryan Roxie) would pull it off, but it would be worth the admission price right there (if we're talking live in concert here).

[CanadianFonzie]

Alice's radio show is simply the greatest radio show, I mean every friday night when I'm driving to meet up with my friends I hear him play an amazing song that I'd never normally hear on the radio, like today he played ZZ Top's Pearl Necklace, my favourite song by them that I have never ever heard on the radio, and than he played He's Back (The Man Behind The Mask), in honor of it being friday the 13th

[Shoesalesman]

That was the first Coop tune I heard that got me hooked, Fonz my man. He's Back (The Man Behind The Mask) is classic horror metal music.

[CanadianFonzie]

hooked on Alice or on his radio show?

[Utellme]

[QUOTE=Shoesalesman To see (or hear I suppose) Hard Rock Summer live would make my day. :shy: Don't know how a non-Kane Roberts guitarist (someone like Keri Kelli or Ryan Roxie) would pull it off, but it would be worth the admission price right there (if we're talking live in concert here).

Live studio album cause Alice could not do a set list like this live.It would not please the average Alice fan.

[Shoesalesman]

True that, Utellme.

Sorry Fonz, I meant hooked on the Coop.

[CanadianFonzie]

Poison is what got me hooked on him...the song not the band:p, though the first song I ever heard from him was the live version of Under My Wheels from the Alice Cooper Show album

[Shoesalesman]

$10 handjobs, Fonz? They're at least $20 here. Damn!

Alot of folks don't like The Alice Cooper Show, including Alice himself from what I've read in interviews, but I love it. Prakash John on bass and Dick Wagner on guitar... deadly!!!!!!

[CanadianFonzie]

funny, everything is usually more expensive in Toronto, and I found this sign right in Toronto too

I haven't listened to the whole album, though my dad does have it, but I prefer that version of Under My Wheels more than the originally recorded version...but it could be one of those cases where I just got too used to that version before hearing the original

[Shoesalesman]

but it could be one of those cases where I just got too used to that version before hearing the original

Good point. That's happened a few times with me with other bands.

[CanadianFonzie]

that's like me and the Heavy Metal soundtrack version of Sabbaths The Mob Rules, sounds so much different and somewhat softer than the original album version yet back when I used to download songs I downloaded the wrong version and I'm hooked on that one

[Utellme]

[QUOTE=Shoesalesman

Alot of folks don't like The Alice Cooper Show, including Alice himself from what I've read in interviews.

Yeah i dont care much for it either, for live performance Classicks or fist full of Alice are both better choices.

[CanadianFonzie]

well I'm not huge on live albums by anyone really, I own a few like Kiss Alive 1-3 and GN'R Live Era '84-'93, I rally just like playing guitar along with the albums and pretending the crowd in the background is cheering for me, lol

[Shoesalesman]

I prefer the crowd on the 2005 Montreux live CD (that came with the DVD concert) in comparison to the ones in A Fistful Of Alice and The Alice Cooper Show combined.

[Utellme]

Alice is suppose to have another box set coming out the Warner Brothers years 71-83 cant wait for that.

[Shoesalesman]

Alice is lining up some Russia/European dates for the summer months, with US representation somewhere in between. May be some UK dates toward the end of the year I've heard.

[michaelleefinnie]

alice cooper + wayne's world= a good combination

-eHFEGbmi6g&feature=related

[Utellme]

Feed my Frankenstien some great guitar work in that song.

[Shoesalesman]

Hey Stoopid was a great follow-up to Trash. Not as commercial and it had a harsher bite in the lyrics.

[CanadianFonzie]

man if I wasn't so limited in money and if the obscure Alice albums at the HMV Superstore weren\t so damn expencive than I would be telling you guys of what obscure Alice album I got today...I was gonna get DaDa...but just too much money and too many otehr cd's I'd rather get

[Utellme]

Hey Stoopid was a great follow-up to Trash. Not as commercial and it had a harsher bite in the lyrics.


Hey Stoopid 91--Dangerous tonight,Wind up toy,might as well be on mars,etc


And the 2 albums before Trash 89,

Raise Your Fist and Yell 87-Freedom, Prince of Darkness,Robert Englund.

Constrictor 86 Teenage Frankenstien,The world needs guts, Hes Back "The man behind the Mask.

1994 Last temptation was a good Alice all these under rated imo.


DADA 84 Fonz if nothing go listen to this where ever you find it "I Love America. and Former Lee Warner.

82" Tag your it" missed being a good Halloween music video

These songs are fun check them out you tube or wherever.

[sammysausage76]

1977 Man with the golden gun James Bond

1986 Great american success story, Back to school Rodney Dangerfield.

1987 Robert Englund on vocals on Alices Raise your fist and yell.

[Shoesalesman]

Wow, I've been away from this thread way too long.

Alice just finished up Las Vegas this weekend, three shows in the city of sin. UK tour starts at the end of November 09. If you get a chance, pick up founding Alice Cooper Group bassist Dennis Dunaway's Bones From The Yard. It's The Dennis Dunaway Project and they kick arse.

Here's one of the German adverts for Saturn with Alice as a bartender...

There's word from Alice himself that the new album could be called 'The Night Shift'.

[DouglasJ]

I love Alice Cooper. Certainly my level of fandom doesn't even approach many (or any) of you guys though.

I'm currently on a mission to get all the albums. Prior to this I really only owned compilation albums and the Life & Crimes set (which is my favourite CD box set ever).

I've got a long way to go yet.

School's Out (Vinyl)
Billion Dollar Babies (Vinyl)
Constrictor (Vinyl)
Trash (Vinyl)
Brutal Planet (CD)
Dragontown (CD)
The Eyes of Alice Cooper (CD)
Dirty Diamonds (CD)
Along Came a Spider (Vinyl)

Currently waiting on Hey Stoopid and Raise Your Fist and yell on Vinyl to arrive.

I saw him once, the Glasgow show in the Dirty Diamonds Tour. I'm not ashamed to say I cried when certain songs were played.

[kiss_armyman1]

ID kill to find Constrictor ,on cd, or download !!! Wish I get someone burn me a copy.

[Bill 1981]

Check your PM, yet? ;)

Yup thanx!!!!

[ChildrenoftheDamned]

I'm late to this conversation, but I'd like to throw out there that if you want Constrictor on CD you can get it for $6.29 at Barnes & Noble.com (http://music.barnesandnoble.com/Constrictor/Alice-Cooper/e/76732576120/?itm=1&USRI=constrictor+alice+cooper).

[Shoesalesman]

Saw the Gruesome Twosome show with Alice and Rob Zombie three weeks ago. Made the barrier both in Edmonton and Calgary, rocked me arse off, met Alice backstage after the first show, had him sign my chest - got it tattooed!! :)

Met Jimmy Degrasso and Damon Johnson from Alice's band too. Friendly guys.

Has to be my favorite tour thus far - stage show was wicked.

[CrystalLake]

Alice Cooper is fucking amazing, I'm addicted to all his albums right now. "Welcome to My Nightmare" is probably my favorite so far. Hoping to see one of his shows soon.

I saw him once, the Glasgow show in the Dirty Diamonds Tour. I'm not ashamed to say I cried when certain songs were played.


Does your Schools Out have the Ladies Underwear inside wrapping the record ?

Raise Your Fist and Yell is the most ubderrated album in music history that album is perfect.Hey Stoopid is a great improvement over Trash.

And if i may ask why cry was the songs that bad ? Ive been a Alice fan for 22 years and have never cried over any of his songs. Maybe i cry in pain when i have to listen to anything off of Trash.


ID kill to find Constrictor ,on cd, or download !!! Wish I get someone burn me a copy.

Just wait to you hear Raise Your Fist and Yell, you think Constrictor is good Raise Your Fist is every bit as good if not better.

Anybody ever looking for any Alice songs just PM me i have everything he put out.And im not talking in some illeagal bootlegging way.Just PM me and ill steer you in the right direction.

Hearing some rumblings about the new album, Welcome 2 My Nightmare. Seems the original band, minus Glen of course, are working on some tracks. Bob Ezrin's in the mix too.

I've always been an Alice Cooper fan. While I do really like his 70's material, I do have to admit that i've always somewhat preferred his albums from the 80's. Raise Your Fist and Yell is definitely my favorite....i've always considered that one to be his absolute best. Their isn't a bad song on it.

I haven't really kept up with him in awhile, however. I haven't heard any of the songs off his newer albums.

2000 Brutal Planet was his last good album.

So far past due it hardly means anything by now Alice should have been in 30 years ago.

King Of The Silver Screen 1977

My all-time favorite is Raise Your Fist and Yell. As far as his 70's albums, it's a tie between Love it to Death and Welcome to my Nightmare.

What do you guys think of Whiskey and Lace? Personally, I think it's a great record, but generally that one gets mixed reviews with fans. Hell, "My God" is one of my favorite Alice Cooper songs ever!!

[Shoesalesman]

The production wasn't so good on L&W, but great songs like Road Rats, It's Hot Tonight, My God, King Of The Silver Screen saved it from being a "below average" release.

Raise Your Fist And Yell 87 is my favorite Alice album followed by Constrictor 86 then Nightmare 75 etc. Raise Your Fist is the most under rated album in rock history IMO. Freedom is a great song so anti PMRC.Prince Of Darkness ,Time To Kill, Chop,Chop,Chop, Gail ,Roses On White Lace and Lock Me Up which have Freddy Krueger in them. The only song i dont like out of the 10 is Not That kind of love.

King Of The Silver Screen freakin rules Alice should of released a single for this song in the day.Wish he would perform it live.

Wish Alice would just release a live studio album with all the rare gems like Black Ju Ju , King Of The Silver Screen ,Tag Your It, Lock Me Up ,Time To Kill, Great American Sucess Story etc.

I thought there was suppose to be another Alice album of previously unreleased material ? Nothing yet i would love to get a hold of unreleased material from 85-95.

3 Alice Cooper songs i would like to get but will never get.

1971 So Happy Together Live

1991 Generation Landslide Live LA, Utah

2009 Pinball Wizard on Rock Band VH1 sadly i can get a version let alone a full version of it sad.Ive called VH1 id gladly pay for the whole song it was Alice vs Sebastian Bach who was covering a Cheap Trick song.

The Old School boxset that's coming out is close to $250 bucks. Probably worth it, but yikes that's a lot to pay on the front end.

Been listening to Dragontown lately. Trying to get into the song Deeper but it still ranks as my least fave Coop song of all time.

[SoulOnFire]

My four year old daughter is becoming a Coop fan it seems. She loves the song "Fresh Blood". We'll get in the car and she starts singing "Fresh blood! Fresh blood!" until we put the song on. Once it's on, no one is allowed to talk until it's over and then she says "That's my favorite song!". I'm starting to play the rest of Dada (my favorite album of his) for her. I'm a proud Daddy.:sniffle:

Alice's new album, Welcome 2 My Nightmare, came out last month, holy crap it's pretty damn good!!!

[Utellme]

Listened to Welcome 2 My Nightmare 2 not impressed theres better albums.Like Raise Your Fist,Constrictor,Hey Stoopid,Brutal Planet.

[Shoesalesman]

A few months later... still playing W2MN almost daily.

[WesReviews]

Saw Cooper on the Dirty Diamonds tour a few years ago, and thought it was a pretty great show. Just wish he would've done "He's Back (The Man Behind the Mask)" live.

[MaDMaNMaRz]

The last time I went to Disc Replay in September or October, they had Welcome 2 My Nightmare playing. I was soooo disappointed with it. I didn't even know it was Alice Cooper at first! Wasn't what I was expecting at all.

I wish the Coop would make another album like Raise Your Fist and Yell.

I wish all the unreleased tracks from constrictor & Raise
