Hi there. I'd like to know a bit about those reissues of SF/ZCS/DADA albums. Do they offer anything special ? Do they have great liner notes, rarely seen photos and such ? In short, are they worth getting for someone who already has them in their original US Warner Bros LP pressings ? Thanks for you...

MY favorite Alice Cooper song, I guess.

Asking me to make a choice between LITD and Killer would be like asking me to chose between my left arm and my right leg.... :rotfl: But I think I can at least say that : to me, they are Alice Cooper at their (and his) purest - if you guys see what I mean.... the hardcore, most meaningful Alice Coop...

Without the shadow of a doubt, my favorite live recording from Alice, so far, is the 1971 Saint Louis Killler show. So fantastic I'm not sure I can put words on it. Just incredible, and the vinyl quality sound is unbelievable. :rock: I don't know for sure which other live shows I would put in second...

Which I guess is sometimes the same to some Alice Cooper fans, called..... "Sick things" !

Now that's what I call a girl with a great sense of humour !

I consider this the one and only avant-garde album by the great man. Having been a fan of Captain Beefheart for many years and who has produced some greats of similar ilk, DADA holds its own with any of these. Mmm, a comparison with Beefheart - interesting. I wouldn't have thought of it. That said,...

Perhaps my favorite solo Alice album. I bought it in late 1988 if memory serves, and I loved it instantly. I always regretted he did not keep that direction and went heavy/hair metal instead. And about "Da Da" being too 'cerebral', I think it's a bit exagerrated.... I mean, come on, that's not a Rob...

As always, and very unfortunately, it misses the section showing a live rendition of "who do you think we are" followed by a live version of "you're a movie" : this section appears only with the copy that has the swedish (or danish ?) subtitles during the songs, and happens between the interview and...

1.) Hello Hooray 2.) B.B. on Mars (replaces House of fire) 3.) No more Mr Nice guy 4.) Under my wheels 5.) Halo of Flies (replaces I'll bite your face off) 6.) Billion Dollar Babies 7.) Alma Matter (replaces caffeine) 8.) Dead Babies (replaces Department of youth) 9.) Don't Blow your Mind (replaces...

Heu, Danielle, "traduire", çà se dit "translate", effectivement... ;) Yeah guys, she was meaning "translate" when she said "traduce".... :rotfl: which still sounds nice I think.... :grin: Pour Danielle : make sense of it = rendre l'ensemble intelligible Finally it was good a good thing that I spread...

Hmmm, I guess not, since there are no pictures inside, just text all over 350 pages. The black & white photography on the cover is from the "From The Inside" front cover session. Great and easy reading, frequent humour, quick presentation of the three original "shock-rockers" that were Screaming Jay...

For those of you who read French : "Alice Cooper - le parrain du shock-rock", by Eric Tessier, has just been released ("parrain" means "godfather") through the "Camion Blanc" edition series. To my knowledge, this is the first French book on Alice Cooper. Just received a copy of it today, sent and si...

Yes!

Yes, sounds like the best three wish-package to me !

I don't like "You want it, you got" (really silly music I think). "Skeletons in the closet" is also silly but a bit better musically; apart from that I quite like all of the other tracks. It's my second favorite Alice album from the eighties - the first being DaDa. Great lyrics sometimes ("Don't tal...

Seems very inviting indeed.


Aaah, Detroit....

I would just like to use this opportunity to pay a special tribute to my best friend of the last forty years, Gary Campbell, was sadly passed away last week. Gary and I first went to see Alice at the special forces tour at the Glasgow Apollo and made it a tradition to then see Alice at every Scotti...

Interesting. And puzzling, of course. I didn't know about that for LITD, but I happen to have a US copy of Killer that shows the same "Capitol case", with similar catalogue numbers on the labels. Check it out here : http://www.wenneberg.dk/AliceCooper/Undersider/LP/71killerUSA.html Jan Wenneberg has...

"Pass the gun around", no contest. I really can't think of anything sadder, more tragic and sincere in Alice's catalogue. And I also think it's one of his most beautiful songs ever. With one of the most poignant guitar solos I heard so far, perfectly fitting the lyrics, voice and production. One of ...
