Close! There are plenty of good nuggets in the booklet, but that's not the one I meant. I respect your ability to keep secrets! (Feel free to PM me if you like) Is there some reason we're now keeping secrets on an Alice Cooper forum where we discuss Alice Cooper? Certainly, not everyone is going to...

Pssst. keep a secret: There is an awesome little fact involving a familiar name that is revealed in the new booklet. Hmmm . There’s lots of awesome little facts. I read the booklet with your comments in mind and I’m trying to figure out which one you’re referring to. Currently my guess is something...

I don’t play this often but even the thought of the gig is enough to bring some of the emotion of the night back. Found the Special forces T-shirt I bought at the gig when I was looking out a shirt for the recent gig in Glasgow. Gave me two thoughts. 1) Not in a million years would I have expected ...

Regarding the Apollo Theatre Glasgow 1982 album, I am finally listening to this for the first time. The sound is superb! The performance and impact of each performer is tremendous. Glad to finally hear it. Fascinating to truly experience the music! What a Rock Show! No wonder why some people consid...

Holy crap. Disc 2 is far worth the price. No Horns, no big backgrounds - it plays simply as the Alice Cooper group performing the Muscle of Love album. (Curious if Bob Greene can be heard in the bkgd?) “Crazy Little Child” is pretty raw, which makes it sound way more like it was recorded in a honky...

Is there any American sickthing who already has this one delivered.
I know some of you already got shippingnotes.

As a matter of fact, YES.

One thing I found strange while onstage before the show they had taped on the floor in front of Alice's mike stand the setlist, a sign that said Tonight is Toledo, and another sign that had the band members names on it. The band member sign was the one I thought odd. There's no such thing as too mu...

As I stated at the top of my post, the release date is November 20. I'm not discounting you, SickThings , but it may be that you saw the digital release date, which is indeed November 20. Alice himself recently emailed me personally , and told me personally , "ALICE COOPER EXPANDED MUSCLE OF LOVE W...

Answering myself here, but apparently it was created in 1973 as a guitar/vocal mix/demo and has simply been cleaned up in 2024. So it IS genuine. That's good! I don't agree with the "less is more" comment though. The original is a great song through and through. Hey, to each his own, right? As a pa...

The release date is November 20. https://store.rhino.com/en/rhino-store/artists/alice-cooper/muscle-of-love-deluxe-edition-cdblu-ray/081227813956.html Track listing for the 3 CD/BD bundle. There's a vinyl release, too. Disc 1 1. Big Apple Dreamin’ (Hippo) 2. Never Been Sold Before 3. Hard Hearted A...

No idea of the back story but the first time I think I saw it was the Brutal Planet tour. Happy to be corrected though. Interesting! Here's a photo from the Dragontown tour in 2001. Not correcting you, Del - this is just the earliest photo that I could find. Notice the gothic lettering isn't there ...

Nice words, Cooperrocks. The one word you left out is “theatrical.” I fully agree that the garage sound has now been done. Repeatedly. It’s understandable why that feel/sound can be so persuasive, but I hope they’ve scratched that itch. Besides, not everyone shares that garage-y point of view. My p...

A friend of mine told me that there is a recent documentary where Alice clearly states that he has been working on a new album with the original band. He also told me that there are some pics from the recording sessions. I don’t have any link for this and sorry if this has been told before. I will ...
