    Congrats to Alice Cooper on Rock & Roll Hall of Fame!!!

    by BehnWilson » Wed Dec 15, 2010 1:33 pm

    Finally, this joke of a hall of fame inducted someone worthy, the great Alice Cooper. Congrats to Alice!!!

    Neil Diamond also made it in, Id say he deserves it, if for nothing else his self effacing appearance in the alltime classic Saving Silverman.

    The rest of the inductees as usual were acts I could give two shits about.

    But a big congrats to the well deserved and long overdue induction for Alice Cooper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Alice is a dead set legend - how cool would it be if he was on the cruise? HAHA.

    So glad he finally made it - his legacy deserves all the acknowledgement in the world.

    Looking forward to his next album!

    No we are not, all his best material came from the original band. Even though Welcome To My Nightmare was solid, besides this all his prime material was from the original band, not a hired pop hit writer whoo writes for the likes of Cher, bon jovi, and the neutered version of Aerosmith.

    No offense meant here, but Im guessing you are young if you prefer Desmond Child to the bands originals reforming and likely werent around during his prime period.

    I'm just saying that if the other members of the original line-up were still able to write great songs, they'd still do music ;)

    WOW, I did NOT know of all those pop records he was involved in!
    I just happen to love Scorpion's "Humanity Hour I" and its production - when I read about Desmond Child, it immediately reminded me of "Trash" (another record with a great production)
    yet, I'm even more convinced that D. Child has the ability to make the difference between a good and a very good album


    btw, if I were THAT young, I wouldn't make moaning noises getting out of the bed, the car, sofa... :cool:

    Bob Ezrin and Alice doing the writing, Dennis, Neal and Michael playing on some tracks. Its gonna be awesome !!

    On July 1, 2010 when talking about the newly retitled album, Welcome to My Nightmare II, Alice said in a Radio Metal interview: "We'll put some of the original people on it and add some new people, I'm very happy with working with Bob (Ezrin) again."

    During a press conference in France, Cooper said about Welcome to My Nightmare II that "[t]his album is more bloody and more accomplished than the first. It sounds like the early years."[75] According to Gail Worley, Alice and Bob Ezrin have come up with 13 songs, including the ballads "I Am Made of You" and "Something to Remember Me By." In addition, Cooper cut three new songs with original band mates Dennis Dunaway (bass), Neal Smith (drums) and Michael Bruce (guitar).

    Alice got greedy and went solo for a bigger % of the take (cant say I blame him), its not like they were fired for incoompetence. Im sure they are stil capable. They had a special chemistry together, Id like to see what they can still do together.

    btw, did you add the "likely werent around during his prime period" part later on? I didn't read that the first time
    yes, I wasn't around back then - and therefore didn't see the original line-up live; I can't say much about the chemistry
    but this doesn't prevent me from loving the old records, too ;)

    The point I was trying to make was that there was a noticable dropoff after he went solo, like any artist its more noticable comtemperaneousiy, when you get each album as it comes out over a period of time.

    Im dating myself but I remember how we were all excited in grade school when Alice Cooper was going to be on tv on Wolfman Jack's, The Midnight Special. And the uncool kids would be like, Alice Cooper, who is she? lol (we werent as well rounded on everything before the internet, info on bands was harder to come by back then).

    About the age comment, like for me all of Elvis' cds kind of blend together, I cant place any songs with a sepecific period of his career and there is no way Im as knowledagble on him as someone who was around to experience his prime career. (I was of the Fat Elvis generation :trashdrink: )

    definitely a HUGE difference! must have been quite a disappointment; most likely even worse than for me after the "second golden era" (Constrictor - Hey Stoopid); the drought between "Welcome..." and "Constrictor" has only one effect on me: I just don't have every album and on the ones I know there are fewer highlights (but there are still a lot of awesome songs from mid 70ies to early 80ies

    np (on iPod shuffle): Alice Cooper - Wind-Up Boy

    I still remember seeing them at the record stores when they came out and getting all excited just cause of the album covers. The album covers for his Greatest Hits (with the gangsters on it) and Welcome To My Nightmare were both cool as Hell.

    A lot of cd covers are really cool but its not the same as an album due to the size limitation and the glossy effects a lot of album covers had.

    Plus for us older folk, double albums had additional uses (if i still had them there would probably still be seeds in the bindings, :D )

    I seem to recall using my Goes To Hell cover for just such practical purpose on numerous occasions. Had that LP since I was about 10 years old but it got stolen with many others. :cry:
    So far at least, 2011, 2012 & 2015 were enough for me

    congrats to Alice and the original line up Long Over-due

    I may be in the minority but I loved his more punk era ... Flush the Fashion and Special Forces were awesome albums although a little short in length still stellar IMHO :cheers: :beerwink:

    I own most if not all Alice's albums (minus a live one or hits) ... Got to see him live twice. Once on the Dirty Diamonds tour and 1 doing a classic/older material. never the original line-up though.

    on a side note the original line up did an album without Alice as Billion Dollar Babies called Battle Axe (anyone remember it) ....... not a great album but one a fan would go collect :cheers:

    Flush the Fashion and Special Forces are not the best records, but still have a special charm and contain some great song like Pain or Don't Talk Old To Me
    btw, I've seen Cooper about eights to ten times :cool:
    I've read about "Billion Dollar Babies" but never heard a single tune...

    Found this post on a hockey message board I post on, Awesome! Let Desmond Child go back to writing for Cher now!!!

    There's a good interview with Alice in Rolling Stone ...

    http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/ ... s-20101214

    Looks like the original band will be getting back together for this, and maybe more . . .

    Is the original band going to perform?
    Yeah, in fact, we've done a couple things together in recent years.

    Are you thinking of playing in more shows with the original band in the near future?
    I think it is inevitable. We have been looking for an excuse to do that anyway. Why not do 4 or 5 major cities, Detroit especially since that's where we broke out of. Los Angeles, New York, London, Toronto. Those were like the five cities where we got our biggest push. We might do that in the spring

    Random tidbit...

    Filmed here in Van...

    The scene where Jack Black runs up and hugs Neil then gets punched out is on the same spot where I stood in line to see Maiden and Twisted Sister on the Powerslave tour decades ago :headbanger:
    So far at least, 2011, 2012 & 2015 were enough for me
    :shred:Book 'em ANDO!! :headbanger:

    That movie makes me nostalgic. It was when Jack Black was actually funny which also seems like decades ago.

    I am a HUGE Cooper fan (shameless plug: I play in the Pacific Northwest's Greatest AC tribute band DEVIL'S FOOD), and while I really love the original group, I find that his finest works come from the mid-to-late seventies; Welcome to My Nightmare, Goes to Hell, Lace and Whiskey, and From the Inside are just phenomenal. Due in no small part to the songwriting and guitar playing of Dick Wagner. My all-time favorite, though, is the one I hated the most when I was a kid and 'Killer' was my fave:
    Dada. Casual Alice fans generally hate this record, done as a collaboration between Bob Ezrin, Alice, and Wagner it is dark, lyrically brilliant, and has some great guitar solos. Alice also says he was so drunk he remembers almost nothing about recording it.
