Editorial Reviews

Review

While in the studio mastering this fine new audiophile release, one could easily see why Alice Cooper is truly a superstar. WELCOME TO MY NIGHTMARE was a watershed album, and Alice once again, assembled one incredible masterpiece.

The choice of material, the great musicians, and of course the artistry of Alice Cooper just make this one of the strongest albums in his legendary catalog.

Most notable, the passages on songs like Steven, The Awakening and Only Women Bleed make WELCOME TO MY NIGHTMARE a great listen indeed! --Joe Reagoso- Reissue Producer

Product Description

Cooper's first bona-fide solo LP went Top 10 in 1975, as did its string-soaked ballad Only Women Bleed . That gentle song is quickly overwhelmed by plenty of good ol' sleazy rock: Devil's Food (featuring a priceless Vincent Price voiceover); The Black Widow; Department of Youth; Cold Ethyl , and more. A TV special and concert film followed in the wake of this classic concept album!

5.0 out of 5 stars Where's the fly?, August 1, 2011

It goes without saying what a fantastic album this is. Friday Music have done a bang up job with the packaging, except for one detail. The original back cover has the spider stalking a fly, but the fly is missing! A minor quibble but it never hurts to check with hard core fans before you send these things to the printer. Still, it's great to have the gatefold cover and nice thick great sounding wax. Can't wait for the sequel "Welcome 2 My Nightmare" - long live the Coop!

If you love vynal, you will definately need to buy a copy of this fantastic release.

The artwork on the cover is as sharp as the original back in 1975 and the FridayMusic labels made similar to the Atlantic release with the green, white and red look great.

The real bonus is the gatefold cover with all the lyrics printed.

There was a very limited pressing of the Nightmare album in France in 1975 with a gatefold (before they reverted to the non gatefold cover) but even if you do have a copy of that hard to find record, you definately need this one in your collection as well.

This is simply another outstanding issue for any Alice Cooper or vynal collector, go and buy one!
