Vincent Furnier - alias Alice Cooper is indeed a living legend. No matter what you say, no matter how much you complain - Alice Cooper's music will live forever.

He really took us to a world of music and shows we never thought would exixt! Well, I wasn't there back in 1969 when they had their debute, but I can imagine that it was a toopsy-turvy experience to watch their heavy make-up, crazy clothing and understanding that were into fun, sex, death and money while "the rest of the world" was into peace and love! Haha! Ahrm... Alice himself says that they "drove a stake right through the heart of the Love Generation"

Alice always worked at touching the youths of the world, so he adjusted his work as time passed - this brought him to some gold and platinum records including "Love It To Death," "Killer," "School's Out," "Billion Dollar Babies," "Welcome To My Nightmare," and "Trash."

Alice Cooper has a remarkable show at stage. Playing with snakes, knifes, blood and fire the scenery is at high costs. He really likes to shock and cheer people - he does this with i.e a guillotine of the magic screen; the gallows or the electric chair - With Alice waiting for the 50,000-watt death-strike.

Long before there was ever an MTV, Alice's "Elected" video was one of the very first non-performance clips ever produced that contained an actual story line. Even more ground-breaking was his ABC network television special, "Welcome To My Nightmare," which co-starred both Alice and Vincent Price and was, essentially, the very first long-form video album containing musical performances for each song on he album, intertwined with narrative sequences.

One of the first rock stars to have his own Marvel comic in the '70's, Alice's 1994 album, "The Last Temptation," was a multi-media event released in conjunction with a trilogy of Marvel comics, all based on the concept of the album, and all done in collaboration with noted comics author Neil Gaiman, best-known for his award-winning Sandman series.

The Coop has also made many a movie and television appearance -- alongside such stars as Helen Hayes, Mae West, and Gene Wilder, among others -- including, most notably, "Wayne's World," "Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare," "Roadie," "John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness," and "Something Wilder."

Alice's latest album is the new Guardian Records release "A Fistful Of Alice," a paint-blistering live album recorded in Mexico that features special guests Slash, Rob Zombie, and Sammy Hagar, and is 100% guaranteed to break leases and shatter noise by-laws every time it's cranked up to full volume.

Aso in release is "Prime Cuts: The Alice Cooper Story," a 90 minute home video shockumentary of Alice's career. This is to be followed in 1998 by the long-awaited release of the definitive multi-CD box set, "The Life & Crimes of Alice Cooper," an authoritative and comprehensive chronicle of Alice's entire musical history.

Face it: Alice Cooper brought show business and rock & roll together in ways never seen before, and rarely seen since -- and the shock waves he created are still shaking the foundations of both.

Which is why the legend of Alice Cooper is still living and continues to thrive strong and unabated, well into the 1990's...and beyond.
