Alice cooper is soon to be in the rock and roll hall of fame,
he has created some of rocks greatest songs like 'I'm 18" a song that everyone of that age should hear.
he had tons of hit singles, but this was from that period when rock shows were interspaced with a 'movie'
it is of it's time in that regard but the concert footage and the movie do feature the original band. One of the poor guys has passed away too so this is a chance to see the original 'alice cooper'. the newer live stuff is better though like 'live at montreax' etc. and the newest edition live at hamersmith. But this one is a worth owning for alice fans for the vintage footage , the movie parts can be seen once I would say and then it's better to just jam with the band.

This is a typical consert movie from the seventies where they try to destroy the consert with a surrealistic and completely idiotic additional movie. They all did it, Abba, Led Zeppelin,Neil Young, the Who and many more. but at least some of them have a good sound and they don`t interupt the consert all the time. When both sound and picture is way under average it dosen`t help that you can play the consert only under bonusmaterial. Pick the Montreux blue ray and skip this one.

The movie shorts between songs are pretty bad. The version I have had as a bootleg for years had old B&W clips that would have something to do with what the next song's subject matter was. This must have been too difficult to get licensing for, but it was much better than theses silly skits. It was more "Alice" too. A lot more. Not throwing away that vhs tape yet!
