Alice Cooper Tickets Continued
Alice Cooper, influenced by British Bands such as The Beatles, The Rolling
Stones, The Who, The Kinks and in particular The Yardbirds, formed a
number of rock bands in the 1960s, including the Earwigs, The Spiders
and The Nazz. His first solo album was Welcome to My Nightmare. Alice Cooper was
backed by Lou Reed's band, guitarist Dick Wagner, guitarist Steve Hunter,
bassist Prakash John, keyboardist Joseph Chrowski and drummer Penti
Glan. The album was another top 10 hit for Alice Cooper and is regarded along
with the stage show as ground breaking moments in rock history. In
addition, the 1975 US TV special 'The Nightmare' was the first video
album and featured horror movie film star Vincent Price, several years
before he guested on Michael Jackson's Thriller.
Alice Cooper received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2003. In 2005,
Alice Cooper released his 24th studio album Dirty Diamonds. The album was
released on August 2, 2005 in the US and July 4, 2005 in Europe. It is
a continuation of the songwriting approach the band used on The Eyes of
Alice Cooper. Dirty Diamonds is Alice Cooper's highest charting album since
1994's, The Last Temptation, coming in at #169 on The Billboard 200. The
Dirty Diamonds Tour launched in America in August 2005.
