Re: New album cover

I cant believe he butchered Detroit City. I just played the original, and it is cooking. Love the chorus "well I was born there, probably die there, with all my long hair....Detroit City". Other than that I love the album. "Independence Dave" - classic. I saw someone berate the record, saying it was...

Re: Social Debris

What a song. Brilliant. Great solo too! Suddenly I am excited about this new album. Think I'll pre-order the vinyl this weekend.

Re: comparing ACG to Alice solo in terms of rating enjoyment

I would add that my least favourite releases are all from the solo era. For the ACG I think Pretties is an utterly bizzare psychedelic minor classic. On Easy Action you can hear the classic sound formulate on Return of the spiders. In the solo era, I don't mind the kitchy moments from Goes to Hell a...

Re: comparing ACG to Alice solo in terms of rating enjoyment

For the original ACG I rate LITD, Killer and Schools Out with BDB just a touch behind. Someone said SO was inconsistent. I disagree. It is my favourite thing he has ever done, and I wouldn't change anything about it. Also loved the cover and dustbin photo. Of the solo years, I think they are pretty ...

Re: Johnny Depp verdict

I have been thinking about this too. My instinct is that Alice will stand by Depp. For what its worth, I hope he does. Agree that he is in a tricky position with it though, when interviewers question him. I think they had a mutually self destructive relationship, but I don't believe he hit her. All ...

Re: Live at Glasgow '82 - 2lp RSD 20202

Fantastic memories Dadascot. Thanks for sharing them. When we saw him twice in Edinburgh, my mate and I were totally blown away by the guillotine. We had really good seats the second night, and were sure we would work out how he did it. But it was just the same magic again, only closer up. We left t...

Re: Live at Glasgow '82 - 2lp RSD 20202

First post here. Been a fan since 82. I live in Glasgow and was gutted to miss this gig, as my older brother and me were just getting into the Coop at the time. I never got to a gig until I saw Motorhead at the Apollo in 83. Cooper just disappeared off the radar after this tour, tho we bought Zipper...
