Well finished. The Alice Cooper screwed on fire. For it must be remembered that Alice Cooper is the release of "School's out" in 1972, still a group. Who begins to have a big success in the US. And whose singer Vincent Furnier who took the pseudonym of Alice Cooper, focuses all eyes. And what makes the reputation of Alice Cooper, are the concerts. The shows, one should say. Outfits and outrageous makeup, snake, Fetish accessories (whips the guillotine ...), pyrotechnics, visual effects ... Total. The old bourgeois and decadent old biddies call it rock. And music in all this? A basic melodic hard rock, the one capable of generating hymns and tubes ("School's out" the song, "My Stars"). But especially the influence of their producer Bob Ezrin. Which always finds a way to slip here and there or classic jazzy arrangements ("Blue Turk", "Grand Final") arrangements that will form his trademark thereafter ("Berlin" Lou Reed, "The Wall" of Floyd is Ezrin at the helm). Although personally I prefer "Killer," "School's out" is a large disk of Alice Cooper. Who will align, large discs, in this first half of the 70s. PS I do not know if Warner, who distributes the thing, has made efforts since then, but my CDs bought it a few years presents his rather asthmatic. Strongly Alice Cooper remastered editions.
