ALICE COOPER UNVEILS THE FIRST SONG FROM THE UPCOMING STUDIO ALBUM “DETROIT STORIES” FEATURING:STEVE HUNTER, JOHNNY BEE, PAUL RANDOLPH, PLUS “HONORARY DETROITER” JOE BONAMASSA Pre-Order “Detroit Stories” here: https://alicecooper.lnk.to/DetroitSto… “Rock & Roll”: A Detroit Story… Alice Cooper releases “Rock & Roll” today as a first taste of the sound and fury we can expect from the upcoming studio album “Detroit Stories”, coming February 26th, 2021 on earMUSIC. “Rock & Roll”, a classic song by The Velvet Underground from the album “Loaded”, is not a casual choice: It´s a song of joy and celebration of that magical moment when we all first turned on Rock and Roll radio …and it saved our lives. Have a listen: Maybe it will save yours too! Here are some interesting Detroit Stories for the fans of rock and roll trivia and for those who believe that nothing happens by chance (especially in Detroit). In 1971, the Alice Cooper Group was working in Detroit, with producer Bob Ezrin. Around the same time, also in Detroit, a band called… Detroit, which featured Mitch Ryder, Johnny Bee and Steve Hunter, recorded a heavy new arrangement of Lou Reed’s “Rock & Roll” also produced by… Bob Ezrin. It was when he heard that version that Lou Reed decided to work with Ezrin on the follow-up to his monster hit album “Transformer”. Their collaboration produced the seminal and fascinating classic album “Berlin”. But wait: There is more! Steve Hunter, the amazing guitar player who created the iconic main riff that drives Detroit´s cover of the song in 1971, ended up working with Ezrin on many of his productions. He toured and recorded with Alice and with Lou Reed as well…and that same riff is the backbone of this new recording of the song which was done in…Detroit, of course. Alice Cooper and Lou Reed shared a relationship of mutual respect and friendship over the years. Bob and Lou collaborated several other times and were dear friends for 40 years. Alice and Bob can’t remember how many albums this is and have been creative partners for 50 years. Listen to Alice’s powerful new version of Lou Reed’s “Rock & Roll” featuring Johnny “Bee” Badanjek (Detroit Wheels), Steve Hunter (Detroit), Paul Randolph (legendary Detroit jazz and R&B bassist) and special guests Joe Bonamassa and Tommy Henriksen (for this occasion, crowned “Honorary Detroiters”) here: https://alicecooper.lnk.to/RocknRoll “Detroit Stories”, Alice’s upcoming new album, is a celebration of the sound and spirit of the Golden Era of Detroit rock. “Detroit was Heavy Rock central then,” explains Alice, “You’d play the Eastown and it would be Alice Cooper, Ted Nugent, the Stooges and the Who, for $4! The next weekend at the Grande it was MC5, Brownsville Station and Fleetwood Mac, or Savoy Brown or the Small Faces. You couldn’t be a soft-rock band or you’d get your ass kicked.” “Los Angeles had its sound with The Doors, Love and Buffalo Springfield,” he says, “San Francisco had the Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane. New York had The Rascals and The Velvet Underground. But Detroit was the birthplace of angry hard rock. After not fitting in anywhere in the US (musically or image wise) Detroit was the only place that recognized the Alice Cooper guitar driven, hard rock sound and our crazy stage show. Detroit was a haven for the outcasts. And when they found out I was born in East Detroit… we were home.” 50 years later, Alice and Ezrin have united in Detroit with their Detroit friends to record “Detroit Stories”, Cooper’s new album. If 2019’s “Breadcrumbs” EP laid down the trail to the city, “Detroit Stories” drives like a muscle car right down Woodward Ave. Discover Detroit Stories as they were meant to be told. “Detroit Stories” will be available on CD, CD+DVD Digipak, CD Box Set (including CD, Blu-ray, T-shirt, face mask, torch light and 3 stickers), and 2LP Gatefold on February 26th 2021 on earMUSIC. And since he won’t be able to tour for a while, Alice asked us to include a DVD and Blu-ray of the incredible last show of the Paranormal tour, (“A Paranormal Evening At The Olympia in Paris”), for the first time available on video. With all concerts being cancelled or postponed, and the world still facing the Covid 19 pandemic at home, Alice Cooper asked us to bring the show to you… until we can celebrate the joy of Rock and Roll together again!

Detroit rocker Alice Cooper is appearing at Motor City Comic Con. Cooper, 71, will appear for autographs and photo ops during all 3 days of the event.
Un nouveau candidat se lance dans la course à la présidence des Etats-Unis, mais sans se prendre trop au sérieux. Alice Cooper, chanteur excentrique de 68 ans a annoncé lundi qu’il se lançait officiellement dans la course à la Maison Blanche pour l’élection du 8 novembre.
Son slogan donne le ton : «Un homme perturbé pour une époque perturbée».Le site internet consacré à sa campagne montre qu’il est assez conscient du peu de chances que son projet aille au bout. Il propose ainsi que soit ajouté au Mont Rushmore (la falaise où sont sculptés quatre visages d’anciens présidents sur près de 20 mètres de hauteur) le visage de Lemmy Kilmister, l’ancien leader du groupe britannique Mötörhead décédé d’un cancer fin 2015. Alice Cooper propose aussi que le billet de 50$ porte l’effigie du comédien Groucho Marx, remplaçant le président Ulysses S. Grant, ou encore que celui de 20£ au Royaume-Uni (où il est particulièrement populaire), rende hommage au comique Peter Sellers.
La campagne du musicien, qui cerne ses yeux bleu clair d’un épais maquillage noir sur un visage blanc fantomatique, consiste pour l’essentiel à ce stade à vendre des produits et à rééditer sa chanson de 1972 intitulée «Elected». Ce hit sorti pendant la campagne de réélection réussie de Richard Nixon s’achève par le vers : «Tout le monde a des problèmes/Et personnellement, je m’en fiche».
VIDEO. Alice Cooper : «Elected»
Alice Cooper, connu pour des titres comme «I’m Eighteen», «School’s Out», «No More Mr. Nice Guy» ou «Poison», s’est décrit dans le passé comme apolitique. Néanmoins, en 2004, il a laissé entrevoir des sympathies pour le parti républicain lorsqu’il a critiqué les musiciens faisant campagne en faveur du démocrate John Kerry, opposé au républicain George W. Bush.
