My Dad and I went to see Tesla on Saturday, and for the drive (under an hour! woohoo!), I grabbed some CDs. Goes to Hell caught my eye as one I haven't listened to in a while--love MANY songs on it, but it's never grabbed me as an ALBUM--and Wake Me Gently is indeed a great song! Tesla Edison's Med...

Ha ha ha! Well done steven for a thorough bit of research! I never realised it was so popular! There are even more versions than that! Liked the Stray Cats version some of that pure rock n roll has really got something. When the Stray Cats burst onto the scene with Stray Cat Strut it had a touch of...

Hi Steven, I think I have mentioned this before on here somewhere, but Alice fans shouldn't hold their breath too much....I remember watching this series at the time it was first shown, and The Coop only got about 25 seconds or so airtime....( from what i recall, it was "Flashy/Jumpy" images of a h...

I Never Cry is hands down my favorite. It's possibly my favorite Alice song, period. It's also my favorite kareoke hit. ;) I am a well known sap so I could list a ton of Alice ballads but I do want to especially mention Wake Me Gently which hasn't been named before, and give another nod to Killed B...

I just watched a recording of the first episode which was really just an hour long preview of what they are going to be looking at and Alice was mentioned in it. Episode 2 on More 4 12.50 am Friday night/Saturday morning By my calculations episode 16 in which Alice features should be the Friday nigh...

Great thread 'Killed By Love' off the forthcoming album is one of his best. I also love Might As Well Be On Mars, Take It Like A Woman and Only Women Bleed. A Ballad is a poem usually set to music so Ballad of Dwight Fry is most certainly that, but a ballad usually has a romantic or sentimental nat...

Yeah and Alice has made another great album, but those who disrespect what the ACG did will always get pulled up on it by fans on here, and so they should.

Alice Cooper musical

Did anyone else on her see a musical based around the music of Alice Cooper I think it was called Original Sin late 80's or early 90's. I saw it in Leeds and the band was really good. Every song was an Alice song apart from one, That's The Way God Planned It by Billy Preston. I spoke to the guy who ...

Agree with Si essential listening, a much underrated album and much better than Pretties For You Some great songs on there Mr and MisDemeanor, Shoe Salesman, Laughing At Me, Refrigerator Heaven and Beautiful Flyaway are some of the best songs Alice has done even though they sound quite different to ...

If the other guys in the ACG were so fantastic----what happened to their record deals, and arena concerts?.....certainly Alice didn't keep them from attaining that. Something tells me that their ideas fell flat.... I believed that Alice with ACG were great TOGETHER until they were unable to work to...

Alice on All You Need Is Love UK TV

This series on popular music has just started showing on Friday nights/Saturday mornings on More 4 and will run for 4 months, Alice is in episode 16 which should air on Hallowe'en!

The whole series which was first aired in the 1970's and is out on DVD goes up to 1975 and is well worth seeing.

Fans who think like you make me want to LOATHE the ACG. MacQueen you may not agree with what Parish said (and I don't agree with his views on the new album either) but please don't ever say that he wants to make you want to loathe the ACG. They have done nothing but help make Alice what he is, Alic...

A good choice, I hope they then follow it up with Killed By Love to show another side to the album and I also think it could be a hit single.
