I don't have this particular cd - although i'm sure it's top notch! I am responding to A. Stewart's question about a greatest hits cd that contains the song "Poison" - yes there is one - it's called "The Best of Alice Cooper - Mascara and Monsters". It's got 22 great tracks, the last one being "Poison". I got my copy at Wal-Mart for $9.

5.0 out of 5 stars the best Alice Cooper album, April 19, 2008

Yes, I know Alice Cooper was capable of some amazing diversity. Just check out any one of his regular studio albums from the early to mid 70's for further proof. The guy could go from pop, to straight up rock, to old-style heavy rock, to highly unusual theatrical rock (whatever that means, haha... but seriously, don't watch any of his live concerts unless you LIKE being grossed out by his disgusting behavior).

But those albums always had one problem- they were loaded with filler. For every two or three great songs, we'd get an average one. To me, that's a problem, and I don't like listening to inconsistent albums. While the variety is commendable, I just can't get into some of his wild experiments when it comes down to it.

With this greatest hits album, not only are we getting the hits, but we're getting many of Alice's more melodic and to-the-point tracks and put onto one brilliant album. It's mostly an album for vocal melody lovers out there. You'll be sure to recognize many of the songs, while feeling totally satisfied the entire time. Worth picking up.

A 'desert island disc' in my collection: a terrific assortment from the early years (major hits and notable album cuts). Sure, some may argue for different inclusions, but my ears thoroughly enjoy this set start to finish. Trouble is though, I have listened to it so many times that my "muscle memory" kicked in when I later bought the "monsters and mascara" compilation (which has orig. 12 from '74, and a host of latter era AC). Many of the M/M tunes have different edits or mixes, so I was quite disappointed (ended up returning, to empathetic store clerk). "School's Out" on M/M ends with a fade-out (heresy!), and "Hello Hooray" noticeably butchered, for instance. If a curious new fan, M/M would be a good intro, but my familiarity lies with the original set (with it's unmatchable artwork -inside and out-: one of my top ten "album" covers. And yes I did once have the vinyl! Would be one of those I would display on my wall. Classy.) PS: Had bought M/M for "Generation Landslide", a fave from B$B, but instead will just buy THAT cd!
