~~~~~~Outward Appearance~~~~~~
The front cover is black as you would expect with a picture of Alice Coopers face and name in red, with the title ‘Classicks‘ in yellow. At a guess I would say this was to represent blood but that’s just my opinion. The design is simple enough and to ... Read review

Advantages: Some really great songs Disadvantages: A couple of odd naff ones, but you get that on most albums
...with a picture of Alice Coopers face and name in red, with the title ‘Classicks‘ in yellow. At a guess I would say this was to represent blood but that’s just my opinion. The design is simple enough and to me, with his dark, brooding stare, makes Alice look almost vampiric (is that a word? Oh well it is now). The back cover has a rather nasty looking picture of Alice Coopers torso. He’s wearing a delightful shirt with the picture of a human face ... ...- nice. The colour of the back is a kind of browny-red, with the 15 song titles in yellow.
Looking inside the cover, you don’t really get a lot, the song titles again (no words to sing along to, tsk they know me so well). Just a couple of pictures and not particularly good ones either. Hardly worth a look.

Advantages: Great Album Disadvantages: Beginners Only, Don't Bother If You Already Own Trashes The World
...brilliant rendition of the old Hendrix classic finishes off this album, this track was previously unreleased on any format.
In my opinion this is a great collection and when combined with the Beast Of Alice Cooper, it proves to be a great way of getting into Alice Coopers work. ...

...Daphne and Celeste, two young girls (what, 15 ish), who are actually making money by singing (i use that term very loosely) songs. Now the song in particular which i think is just typefies what utter tosh these two are, is the AliceCooperclassic, "School's Out". Now the original was amazing, and im not even that big a fan of Cooper. But listening to D & C, its like two cats being ran over, and then being reversed on!!! Im sure these girls are very nice people, but they are being conned by the record companies... because they certainly are not talented! All in all, Daphne & Celeste are utter tripe, that will unfortunately, be lapped up by the young and foolish!...

Advantages: another brilliant album from the Coop and buddies Disadvantages: are you serious?
...Killer was the fourth studio album, and second seriously heavy rock album, from AliceCooper. It was released in November 1971, causing a real stir at the time with its subject matter and shock stage show, reaching #21 on the US charts and #27 in the UK. One of my all-time favourites this one, we have blistering yet subtle rock, some real creepy lyrics, cleverly interposed pieces that change the mood of songs in the blink of an eye........in all, a classicAliceCooper record!
A small nut important point; this is an album by AliceCooper the band with a singer of the same name, not the individual born as Vincent Furnier, because that change of name didn't come until the mid-70's when "Welcome To My Nightmare" came out and he effectively brought the name. The band: AliceCooper AKA Vincent Furnier (vocals), Glen...
