Re: Alice band members past and present best albums

For me hands down anything by Beasto Blanco with Chuck Garric.

Re: hello hurray

My hopes are up. Way up. There was magic in those ACG albums. With the bar being set so high with those original albums, does it create any pressures to recreate that type of legacy or does it add excitement to seek new possibilities ? I would think there would be no pressure to make a hit single si...

Re: The 'Secret' Next Album

Supposedly each new song on the original group album will have a guest guitarist to play Glen’s role. Interesting concept and opens up a lot of possibilities.

Re: The 'Secret' Next Album

Kane has been rumored to be one of the guest guitarists that will be filling in for Glen on the album with the original group. Much rather see that before a Desmond and whoever release.

Re: The Beginning of the Comeback of Alice Cooper (1986)

To me the album and tour made the statement that hey I’m still here and can hang with any of the current hard rock / hair bands that are out there and I won’t be going away anytime soon. Mission accomplished.

Re: The 'Secret' Next Album

I wonder what the time frame will be before those involved in the project can officially talk about things ? Supposedly 14 songs were recorded a while back. I haven’t heard if that number has changed so I’m thinking it’s pretty much done except maybe for some tweaks or album art. I’d bet our Dr. Dre...

Re: The 'Secret' Next Album

Original songs written with the original group and Ezrin. And the only guest musicians I’d prefer to see would be guitarists to fill in for Glen.

Re: Desmond Child Thoughts

Not a big fan of Desmond and that interview didn’t change anything. Glad he didn’t take Alice into that industrial keyboard direction he wanted to if he produced the album after Trash. I preferred Hey Stupid to Trash.

Re: Slade

I can’t speculate on Denis awareness of Lea , but I think Lea was very aware of Denis as later on in his career he produced a few records and I believe he played bass on a cover of Schools out for some popular singer.

Re: Slicker Than A Weasel

I actually saw the concert back in the day and you are correct, the band did seem unusual. Extremely talented group but it had the feel of a hired gun performance. Sort of a Ringo Star All Star band feel to it. The edge was missing. A mainstream event.

Re: Another "Halo Of Flies" question

I thought the track for "Under My Wheels" sounded strong on its own and I was against adding horns. Since the song was chosen as a single, and radio stations were playing songs by other groups that had added horns (The Doors, The Stones), it likely helped get airplay. The horns soon won me over. Di...

I love the chickens and make no apologies for it. Reversing the legendary chicken incident was brilliant!
Alice should have taken an axe to those chickens. That would have been real Alice Cooper.

Re: The Lace and Whiskey Era

Dancing chickens was definitely a bad idea. A real bad idea. And going on Carson with them and without a band was a bad idea. A real bad idea. The cover of the Lace and Whiskey with Alice as a 1950’s private detective was a bad idea. It came across as I don’t want to be Alice Cooper anymore. As for ...
