I find a lot of them totally fascinating. See, this is exactly what I go on about. The labels and artists need to ask US what to include and how to do it. Alice Cooper. Patchy is a good word for this. But still fun. It put me in an Alice mood so… job done. And it does look cool. On the subject of action heroes, did you see the hidden First Blood quote? Tough decision. Sounds like first dud by the Banger Boys. They had a great run with superior documentaries. I will watch it somewhere but I will not purchase this.
Good review HMO. Thanks Deke. Ending it on Constrictor does work in terms of giving the film a happy ending. I like that Kane Roberts got into the movie too but… does that make him more important than Michael Bruce in the AC story? Great Scott! He did a review!! Nice one, dude! York University in Toronto. I really enjoy Alice, but the hubs is the one with all his material. I do love me a good doc as you know.
I do like his stuff. Seems like something they were hired to do rather than wanted to do if that makes any sense. I rewatch those a lot. I really enjoyed the Metal Evolution series recently too.
It was pretty flawed but I applaud him going to that depth. Very ambitious. When will someone do justice to the Alice Cooper saga? I strongly recommend this book. In depth talk with everybody…even Buxton…although he was too wasted to really interact much. Ahh, I understand. Well, the Old School box set does come with a DVD, with new interviews with all four surviving members, even Michael Bruce who has packed on the pounds.
However as far as vintage band interviews on video, I admit I have seen nothing. The shit thing is that all the interview content in the DVD is duplicated on an interview CD also included with the box set. Somebody mentioned Prime Cuts — that probably remains still the best Cooper video out.
The DVD had a cool bonus disc. But you have to play a stupid snakes and ladders game to access the extras…. He would have made them look bad. Just like he did to Spinal Tap. You know how many times Derek Smalls got caught in that pod? DiBergi chose to only show him getting stuck. The band thought this was character assassination and I agree with them! AT ALL! Mind you, Glen got a mention though. How many times has a singer believed industry hype, and gone solo, leaving great bands to wither and die forgotten?
Haha look out for all that hate spam coming your way! With good reason in fairness! But I just find him a bit much sometimes. Even Muscle of Love is better than the newer stuff. Killer is one my favourite albums full stop. He still leans so heavily on that stuff. And thank you for stopping by and commenting. Much appreciated! I watched this last night with my wife who has heard of Cooper but never knew his career other than the hits. I dug it but I would never watch it again.
Also the fact it ends in 86 is interesting as well,kinda of a cool move plus the way the editing of use of still images was creative and they would,show old footage of the musicians that they would talk to Snider and Pop kinda of a cool angle…. It is very much like that.
It is an ok watch but, like you say, how many times are you going to want to watch it again? What would be the point? It could have been so much better. One of the writers not Dunn explains the decisions about the film in the book that comes with his set. I guess they viewed it as Alice Cooper not the Alice Cooper band.. Still good not great….. Yes I think they did but the music and musicians are still a big part of his story too. I think they glossed over that aspect too much.
But yeah, still good. You are commenting using your WordPress. You are commenting using your Google account. You are commenting using your Twitter account.

TPB series sounds cool! I watched 7 series of it… having withdrawal now! Kick it, Kevin. Do something, Kevin. I am honestly never going to get tired of that!
I mean, yeah, I do have some ideas. Let me think on it this weekend. Montreal or Montreux? My understanding is the Shep Gordon doc has nothing to do with Alice. I think I probably spend more time watching docs than I should. Sign In. Play trailer Documentary Biography Music. See more at IMDbPro. Trailer Super Duper Alice Cooper. Photos 6. Top cast Edit.
