meh. can't see this being on my shelf until it hits the bargain bin price level. 3 years since the last Coop album, woulda preferred more of his own stuff. hope if there's a tour it's not even more cover stuff.

I think it would have made more sense to release this before he started the last tour. The whole Raise The Dead section would have made more sense. But I think right now most Alice fans just want new music and a new show. I'll still buy it but I can't say it's something I'm particular excited about.

Is it bad to say that I'd forgotten about it coming out?

Whilst I hope it's great and sells well, I'd find it sad if this outsold W2MN. It'll be interesting to see how it performs.

I am also worried that there will be even more cover stuff on Raise The Dead tour when the album arrives in stores. Hopefully there will be one or two Alice Cooper originals on the covers album as Glen Sobel told in some interview. If there won't be I will not buy it and it breaks my heart to say this about Alice Cooper album.

I still hope upcoming tour hits Finland because I haven't seen Alice live since 2009 and I truly think his current live band is exceptional, they have really great chemistry and I have watched a lot of YouTube videos of their gigs and every time I see top notch musicianship and admirable dedication to their work.

Of course the stage show could be a lot better and I'm not a fan of Raise the Dead section but I desperately need to see Alice live because he still sings great and Orianthi is just as talented as she is beautiful, maybe even more.

Hopefully The Raise The Dead tour is gonna be finished by time the album comes out and it's a completely different show.

Agreed, I'll pick it up strictly because I'm a Coop fan and that's all.
Don't get me wrong, I have loved a lot of Coop's covers through the years but not as a whole album. I want mostly originality mixed in the salad.

I'm not opposed to the idea but wonder how you can add anything to those songs. A bit more obscurity might have been better. Sun Arise and Pretty Ballarina are wonderful but run throughs of The Animals or Hendrix are just average.

I'd prefer to take an album that he would have written during his tour and had taken him 1 month to write and record , than this average idea. Though ,we still have to wait to listen to the covers album beacause I still think that he will shock us .Hopefully in a positive way :)

I would presume it would be Bigger Picture, Ezrin's company, then like W2MN be licensed outside the US.

Did I read this was to have 3 new Coop songs as well. If so that is something.
I still want to hear all the covers. I do hope it comes out on Vinyl and CD.

"Krieger was just at Johnny Depp's studio, working on Alice Cooper's album of covers. "I've recently played guitar on the forthcoming Alice Cooper-Johnny Depp recording project, which a tribute to their 'dead friends'," he said."
