Eddie Trunk Top 20

Post by mot$$33 » Mon Oct 26, 2020 7:29 pm

For those that live in North America and have Sirius XM, Eddie Trunk is doing his Alice Cooper Top 20 songs tomorrow (10-27-20) on his show, which is 2-4pm EST.

Very cool he is doing Alice, as he only has done major bands so far. It gets quite a bit of audience call-in and give and take banter on whose list is best, etc.

I don’t kn

*sorry hit button too fast.

I don’t know about you all but that could be incredibly difficult for me. I like it all from Pretties, 70s, black out period, industrial, etc.

eddie has some strange tastes so could be interesting. I wont hear it but if anyone hears it and posts it , it will be interesting.

I could bash out a top 20 i think.....it would be hard but as long as its in no order i think i could do it.

That’s cool he’s doing an Alice Cooper Top 20 But I can see him saying how much he liked the original band and his favorite tune by them is “Welcome to my Nightmare”... :( Sorry... But I remember him having Ann & Nancy Wilson on his show and they were playing Stump the Trunk where the audience ask him a question and the question was something like “Name one of the Hits off of the Dreamboat Annie album” ...he couldn’t do it! A similar thing happened when he had Buck Dharma from B.O.C. On there... I was kind of shocked both times he couldn’t answer...

You'd think someone with a trunk would have a better memory.

Everyone is a bit different but a bunch of these tunes would make my list(especially the first 5)... The one song I always loved for some reason is “Never Been Sold Before” And that would definitely make my list. The ending of the tune drags on a bit long but that tune don’t get many mentions anywhere...maybe I’m a little off for liking it a lot but I do :laugh:

Exactly...especially with the musicians as guests on the shows...

I've always quite liked Never Been Sold Before too so I might add it to my list. Do you have/have you heard the demo? Quite different from the finished version.

It really is quite different! I have that on the Old School set...I prefer the Muscle of Love version over the demo but man, did that demo throw me off the first time I heard it!

^^ Thanks for posting Eddie's picks - it appears that him and I only agree on 6 songs.

Indeed it is quite different. The interesting thing is that quite a few of the lyrics are the same, whereas with demos usually the music is more similar to the finished version while the lyrics oftentimes are either ad-libbed/changed or non-existent, in which case the demo is an instrumental.

It might have been a bit more interesting if the list was made up of deep ( I hate the term ) cuts.

It looks like this clown got a list of Alice's singles through the years and they became his favorites. This guy is a tool.

Mine is closer to yours than Trunk’s. I’d probably throw in one of the RYFAY side 2 songs and maybe Headlines.
