Have to ask….
If you’ve heard it, any opinion on Alice’s new song “ I’m Alice” ??
Re: Have to ask….
I'm sure it will go over fine in live shows. And I'm glad the touring band got to record an album together.
Upon first listen, I was distracted thinking about lyrics I would have written.
I'm not sure if the descending bass outro was a tribute to me but I'll take it.

I think the "nods" to the past are deliberate. I can't believe the musicians, most of whom have played those old songs 100s of times, wouldn't notice, and Bob certainly would. There's also at least one bass run in the middle which has your style all over it and absolutely Chuck would know that too and again it's likely on purpose. A "tip of the hat" if you will.Dreary wrote: ↑Thu Jun 15, 2023 3:34 amI'm sure it will go over fine in live shows. And I'm glad the touring band got to record an album together.

It would be a lot cooler had it not been used as a novelty on “ genuine American girl “ on the paranormal album!
Maybe it’s just that it’s such a good part it bears re doing every now and again. I’m sure paying tribute to you is important to them as well. Thanks for your thoughts Dennis.

Re: Have to ask….
I forgot that I had revisited a descending outro on "Genuine American Girl". I do remember using a bass intro that I had used on "Elected" on "Social Debris".scotty wrote: ↑Thu Jun 15, 2023 6:58 pmIt would be a lot cooler had it not been used as a novelty on “ genuine American girl “ on the paranormal album!

Re: Have to ask….
I knew there was one other track that had “ elected “ shoe horned in so to speak. Hey if anyone can do it, it’s you.

Mission accomplished for this huge fan!
Re: Have to ask….
I just had this conversation with my daughter (Alice - of course!).
Time is getting closer
Re: Have to ask….
Everyone should have an Alice cooper ringtone. “Under my wheels” is the most obvious one ha!
Re: Have to ask….
Love the current band, as I know you do, but you gotta go with the “ killer” version imo. There’s nothing like the original in most anything you’re talking about. Having said that if every time my phone rang, and I just got an isolated vocal of Alice going “ telephone is ringing …” that would be kind of cool. For a while lol
