I saw the TRASH one at a used record shop, but when I went back to my car to get some cash and came back (ten minute walk to car, then back)... it was gone. :(

:( That sucks, Shoesalesman! I would've been soooo pissed!

I've got the WTMN book and one that's misleadingly called "Alice Cooper Complete" from '74 that includes:

Ballad of Dwight Fry
Be My Lover
Big Apple Dreamin' (Hippo)
Billion Dollar Babies
Black Juju
Caught in a Dream
Crazy Little Child
Desperado
Eighteen
Elected
Generation Landslide
Halo of Flies
Hard Hearted Alice
I Love the Dead
Is It My Body
Killer
Long Way to Go
Man with the Golden Gun
Mary Ann
Muscle of Love
Never Been Sold Before
No More Mr. Nice Guy
Raped and Freezin'
School's Out
Second Coming
Sick Things
Teenage Lament '74
Under MY Wheels
Unfinished Sweet
Woman Machine
Working Up a Sweat
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
You Drive Me Nervous

The book used to sell for big bucks, but there's one on eBay at the moment for $6 (my copy has the same cover but there's a banner across the centre that says "Includes all the songs from the album 'Muscle of Love'"):

Someone may come along and correct me, but I think there's also books for BDB, Muscle of Love, and Hey Stoopid. Seems like I saw a new BDB book (like a reissue) around 10 years ago. Could be wrong. I don't play a lick, so I can't comment on the content.

Got them both and there both good books have solos ect .


I m fairly sure there is a billion doller babies but thats not a tab book . Any of the early albums seem to be vocal lines paino and chords etc

I've got welcome to my nightmare but thats never been done as a tab books so if your into guitar its really of no use . Im going to do the full welcome to my nightmare album tab soon , and i mean full with all licks etc . Thats why im trying to get the Cooper Tab team going so we can tab all the classics .
