Alice Cooper, 1989 and why I had to wait by the bus

We went on a day trip to Ayr when I was at school and I put some money in the jukebox..but it wasn't working. Stubborn as I am I put all my money in and then it worked. The same song again and again and by the fourth play of Alice Cooper's 'Poison' I was dragged out by my hear and made to stand by the bus for an hour. Maybe I deserved it. 'Black lace, on sweat'?
But forgetting that period, Alice Cooper was a great songwriter.
In 1970, (when Alice Cooper was a band) that first album 'Love It To Death' ....amazing! The following album, 1971's 'Killer'  was too -  and I can listen to these over and over and catholic school can't stop me. 

I'm 18 


This is great - very psychedelic 1972 performance
