Re: Another 3 RHINO rocktober vinyl releases

As far as I know Rhino was an independent that specialized in obscure & "Out Of Print" releases. They were so good at it that WB bought the company & opened the WB archives to them. So, I believe that anything beyond a WB release would have many "Rights" issues.

Re: 4 new albums announced

Well Yeah, sort of Shep - (& A.C.) has the luxury of shopping around for distribution. However, at this point I don't th...

Re: Sorry,....Hollywood Vampires....

I have nothing against HV. But, the way I see it, it's not a band, just a big fan club, in fact, 3 fan's clubs. The fan club of Alice, the fan club of Joe and the biggest of all, the fan club of Johnny Depp. In my opinion, people go to see Alice, Joe or Johnny, not the HV band. Actually, real fans ...

Re: Vampires Tour - going?

I meant to comment on your comment about Johnny Depp. When I saw the Vampires in 2016, I was really impressed with everything about him. He not only plays well and is charismatic, but he was engaged with the audience the entire time: pointing at people, high-fiving people, posing for their photos, ...

Re: Long-time Alice Cooper artist Airic Brumitt needs help

This reminds me of Howard Stern. His long time engineer's wife recently was battling cancer (she passed away a couple of weeks ago sadly.) . He set up a gofundme page because her costs were astronomical for full time care, transportation, etc. People jumped all over Howard's case only because "he d...

Re: From the Inside

Rhino rides out a Monkees faze every so often. RIP Davey :HEART:
I believe WB acquired Rhino many years ago & they've been dipping in the archive ever since. :devil:
Maybe they should celebrate a Master :alice: by dusting off the old WB Masters!

Re: Recent Purchases

Nice score on the School Days - here in Canada that album was not easy to get by the late seventies. I finally bought a used copy around 1985 paid $15 for it which I considered a good price. It's the one item I took to get signed at an in-store appearance AC did promoting TLT. What's the label on y...

Thanks,
Watched a bit yesterday but, once you get past the first minute or so you're in for 12.
The DD tour clips are short & sweet but pretty essential.

Re: I still think Paranormal is mediocre........

Paranormal is a good album for a 70-year old rocker and aside from that just okay. Alice is leading a lifestyle today that isn't compatible with great creative output. Just comfortable, golfing every day, performing at night, shopping, spending time with family. What kind of creative angst or energ...

I find w/Paranormal AC & Ezrin are treading water in the same pond w/o much desire to move forward or "Jump The Shark"
I still think Paranormal rocks harder than W2MN.

Re: Alice Cooper's best guitarist??

I'm with Padre. We're splitting hairs here about the best. The Core of ACG was as unique as The Beatles. It took them all to make a Group, including Ezrin & Martin. All were pieces to a sonic puzzle. After that the parts were exchanged. The Stones & AC/DC are bands that maybe have been able to repla...

I was at Barnes & Noble today and they had one copy of PFY in the red vinyl Rocktober release.

There were some other nice touches as well - the allusion to 'No More Mr. Nice Guy' with the cane at the start, the mention of 'Raise The Dead' (which, of course, was a previous tour/project), the black, giallo-esque gloves and Alice lapping up the applause at the end (all that was missing was " an...
