Definitely. There are so many rock bands that wouldn't be here without alice paving the way. And he puts on the BEST concerts. I wont even see other bands besides him. No one makes you feel you got your monies worth other than Alice Cooper. I have seen him 5 times... Would have been 6 plus a meet and greet if covid didnt fuck every thing all up
Alice's "Welcome To My Nightmare" was the first rock show I ever saw live. It was at a casino in Lake Tahoe, Nevada! It totally hit me!! Thank you, Alice!
Alice's music changed my life, in all seriousness. If I had to pick one, it'd probably be Poison because that's the first one I heard, but Hey Stoopid prevented me from doing something incredibly stupid. But so many of his songs seem to speak right to me, I don't really get that with other musicians (except perhaps David Bowie).
They did that “Vinyl” stuff on AMC tv. But I agree, they should do a movie about him. Picking the lead actor will be extremely hard though. I love him so much, especially in the early 70s. He was soooooooooo cute to me.
How Great Though Art. It is a great hymn to have in your in your heart. Thank you Mr. Cooper for all your honesty. I bought your albums too and I saw you once in Toronto, Canada. I loved your show! I wish I could have met you and your band just to an atograph. You inspired me with good relations with people. Keep the Faith! May the Good Lord Bless You. Yours, Janet Craft.
I have been a fan since the beginning. I love this man and his work. I’ve seen him 3 times and on the 3rd time I got to meet him. He is truly a great person. And what impressed me while we were talking, he brought up his wife. She is a blessed woman and their marriage has lasted and still love each other. I just can’t say enough good things about him. I love you Alice!! ♥️❤️💜💙💚💛🧡💕💘
I was in my mid teens when 'Poison' broke into the charts and that set me feverishly to work collecting Alice's back catalog on tape. I studied for exams with Alice singing in the background and wanted to absorb everything on him that I could. He's a true rock icon and the one celebrity I'd love to meet. Thanks for everything Coop!!!
So much love and respect for this man and his talents... and his faith in God. Always loved the Alice Cooper Band and then in later years of my life experiences; much as his, he's almost like a brother that I've never met in person. But would love to be reunited one day... God bless you Vincent... you have helped so many people who desperately needed help.
My father used to play Alice Cooper for me, the ballads to rock me to sleep as a baby. I have always had fond memories of the songs of Alice and still to this day 35 years later. 🖤
Wow, he saw the Rolling Stones as a first concert. They have to be ten or more years older than Alice. Rock never dies. The best music ever. Yeah, Alice is awesome
First time i heard Alice Cooper's song, Eighteen, I was 8 years old and my 17 year old babysitter was playing it on the turntable. Remember it clearly. Never listened to Beach Boys or Glen Cambell after that. It changed my music taste instantly. Bought the album Love it Death within 3 days (before i had my own record player) and have been a crazed fan since then. It scared the hell out of my mother but i still know nearly every song by heart from Love it to Death, Schools Out, Billion Dollar Babies and Welcome to My Nightmare. When you listen to every song all the time from 8 years old to 12, they stay with you forever. You know what else, he's still right...."Lines form on my face and my hands, lines form on the left and right, I'm in the middle, the middle of life, I'm a boy and I'm a man, I'm eighteen and I like it".....Just had to get that out! Cause even now, that's still me. Way freaky huh?
I am a long time Alice Cooper fan! I had every album he put out throughout the 70's and 80's, continued though the 90's. At the sweet age of 20, I saw him in concert in Bakersfield, California in 1980. At the age of 61, I still know all the words to all the songs! Long live Alice!
All I ever get from watching Alice Cooper interviews (and I mean over decades) is: very intelligent guy and very, very nice guy. I've always liked the dude, which just goes to show that I have very good taste in glam rock stars. School's been blown to pieces. About time.
When I was 12 my very weird uncle played the Billion Dollar Babies album to me and I bought it the same day... my mother came home and finds her young boy listening to either Sick Things or I Love The Dead. She was worried lol. Music changed for me that day. But, don't worry about my mother, she ended up liking Alice and actually went to see him with my youngest brother a couple of years before I got to see him.
the first singer i can ever remember hearing is john denver. my mom loved john denver... but my dad liked KISS....i was a musically challenged kid because my grandparents were feeding me andy williams all at the same time! it took bruce sprignsteen to break me out of that confusion....and after that i imediatley became an alice cooper fan to all of their chagrin....
I liked Alice Cooper as a youngster. It was because he was SUPER nice and VERY attractive offstage. I always thought Cheryl was right for him. I like him now because he is Christian and so am I. I don't watch his act now, but know his songs. As a woman I loved ''I Never Cry'' and ''You and Me''. Of course, ''Elected'' and ''I'm Eighteen'' are great. Saw ''Welcome to My Nightmare''. Using Vincent Price was amazing, magic and SOOOO funny! The maestro's voice appeared in the stage show.
I never really heard of Alice Cooper or his music but I was born and raised here in Phoenix Arizona in 1965 Been here all my life.But I think I saw him at this one place called Legend City. When I was about 12 years old in 1977. At Wallace and Ladmo Show😊😍😘
In 1965 in Phoenix they were known as the “Spiders” and the “Nazz” maybe that’s why you weren’t familiar with him then. 1968 they became Alice Cooper (the whole group)
Why is it that everyone else's first album and first gig so cool? I would have to say 2 B A Master from Pokemon and the Pop Idol winner's tour in 2002. That's sad.
the only artists i have heard say that they just don't like alice is the insane clown posse!! apparently alice worked with icp on one of their cds and it didn't go well!! alice says he couldn't get along with the band and icp fought back claiming in interviews that alice loves to cheat on his wife with a certain groupie from detroit!! but icp has no proof to back up their claim!!
ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qw9RVjEN9OI.html link to the first song i can remember hearing on my radio "Our Day Will Come" by Ruby and the Romantics
It just means he and his track mates achieved high honours in competitive sport for 4 years which would’ve went against the anti establishment mythos they were trying to cultivate
"...Dude looks like a lady -I should have written that..." !?!?!?!? WHAT? Alice, that is like the ruin of Palmer: "Addicted to love" - it"s a freakin' ear worm of the worst kind....never, EVER say that again, I command you!...your stuff is light years beyond that crap!! ...now, if you had mentioned anything from "Rocks", THEN you are saying something....I'm just sayin'.
We are in such a musical rut these days. Its all moronic, pop or rap that requires no talent. Other than Eminem. When are we gonna have another ground breaking rock n roll age? This rap SHIT is nauseating
