Alice Cooper’s Top Five Albums + Rarities, with Harrison & Jex

Awesome show tonight hosted by Harrison and Jex!  Top Five Alice Cooper albums, plus a nice collection from Harrison for bonus show & tell.  Harrison has three Alice Cooper albums that I would like to steal from his house.  Which ones?  You’ll have to watch to find out.  But you can check out the boys’ Top Fives below!  And as a bonus, I’ll throw in my Top Five as well.  Check ’em out!

This was one of my favourite shows to watch!  Thank you to Harrison and Jex for doing such an amazing job!  This was a great set of lists, and some awesome show & tell from Harrison.  My list will be drastically different from theirs!

Thanks for watching and we’ll see ya next week for my birthday!

  1. In protest of WordPress arbitrarily changing my profile picture to the stupid light blue, I have changed it myself to something better.

    2. Sorry I missed it. We had a storm with 75 mph winds last night when you were streaming. Split trees in half. I got distracted by that. A lot of people lost power.

  2. I know this is a month old, but I only got to see it this past week, and I just wanted to say I thought it was great. As a music fan who is not too knowledgeable about Alice Cooper but wants to learn more, I found this not only entertaining but highly educational! I was especially intrigued by the content related to “Clones” and Alice’s work during that early ’80’s period which I think I was barely aware of before (I remember him from the ’70’s mainly because of his Marvel comic – “Marvel Premiere” #50 – but also from songs on the radio) and then he disappeared off my radar, and I don’t remember hearing about him until the “Constrictor” era when I used to hear his new stuff on AOR stations. He would also do metal package shows/tours during that era, I think, so he would be mentioned in the on-air ads for those (including Vinnie Vincent Invasion?).

      1. Your list was similar to mine. His early to mid 70’s run was spectacular, with spotty albums mixed with mostly decent, and a few hidden gems after that. I just read the liner notes on Billion Dollar Babies and he gives special thanks to Dick Wagner. Foreshadowing I guess.

        1. I would not be surprised if Wagner played ghost guitar on that record, since he was an Ezrin mainstay. They were starting to have problems with Glen Buxton’s performance live and in the studio around this time.

        4. Funny how musicians rate a problem addict. If he has 20 drinks daily, mixed with pills, lines of coke, and some heroin, buuuuut plays fine. All is good. If he shows up late, or screws up a few times, thennnn he has a drug problem.

        5. It’s all about the bottom line. You know that book I have, Billion Dollar Baby by Bob Greene? That was the Muscle of Love sessions, which did not include Glen. He didn’t play on it. So I would think that means, he was probably a “problem” by the prior album too.

        6. Yeah, Dick Wagner is credited on Muscle Of Love, not on Billion Dollar Babies though. I am sure I hear his tone though. He was a pretty prolific writer as well. Maybe he helped out there too.
