Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
They billed it as "the film that outgrosses them all," but if some of the antics on display in Good To See You Again, Alice Cooper - Live 1973 seem fairly mild some thirty years after the fact, that's mainly because people like Marilyn Manson and some of the more lurid punk and metal acts copped many of their moves from Cooper in the first place. This movie, which combines footage from the band's Billion Dollar Babies concert tour with what might charitably be described as a storyline, had a brief theatrical run in the mid-'70s but has been mostly unseen until this DVD release, which features a high definition transfer and a new sound mix. The group (with its namesake singer joined by original members Michael Bruce and Glen Buxton on guitar, Dennis Dunaway on bass, and drummer Neal Smith) was in the midst of a nice run of hits at the time; "No More Mr. Nice Guy," "Eighteen," and "School's Out" are all ably performed here, but it's the stage show in all its Grand Guignol glory that's the prime attraction. Clockwork Orange-style violence, necrophilia, decapitation via guillotine, humping mannequins, sticking baby dolls with swords: that and more is on display here, all in the name of what Cooper, whose commentary track is the major bonus feature, describes as "performance art." Well, maybe. Most of it comes off as little more than a hodgepodge of disconnected images--some vile and vulgar, some merely silly--designed to thrill the kids and piss off the parents, which it most certainly did… and ain't that what rock & roll is all about? As for the "story" (something about a crazed film director out for vengeance after Alice ruins his masterpiece) that's intercut with the concert numbers, the best that can be said about it is that viewers have the option of choosing the "play concert only" option. --Sam Graham

Product Description
And now, America's own Billion Dollar Babies ... the legendary ALICE COOPER!

The original Rock ’n’ Roll Spectacle. The groundbreaking tour. The five original members of the Alice Cooper group captured live. The 1973 Billion Dollar Babies show was the first of its kind. No other band had ever brought a more expensive, elaborate theatrical production to the rock stage -- and rarely has any since.

Now available for the FIRST TIME since it hit theaters in 1974, Good To See You Again, Alice Cooper -- the film made during the Billion Dollar Babies tour that combines stunning concert footage with an outrageous story and also features the band’s acting debut — has been transferred in high definition and now includes a new 5.1 Surround Sound mix.

The crunching music, the snake, the guillotine, the makeup, the hatchets, mannequins and dolls, the money, the whips -- it all started here. Alice Cooper kicked the door down. All the other artists followed behind.

Featuring 13 Alice Cooper classics recorded live in concert:

Hello, Hooray
Billion Dollar Babies
Elected
I’m Eighteen
Raped And Freezin’
No More Mr. Nice Guy
My Stars
Unfinished Sweet
Sick Things
Dead Babies
I Love The Dead
School’s Out
Under My Wheels
And a studio performance of The Lady Is A Tramp

Plus These Special Features:
*Audio Commentary by Alice Cooper
*Play-Concert-Only Option
*Deleted Scene and Outtakes
*Original Theatrical Trailer and Radio Spots
*Poster Gallery With Original Promotional Material
Band Biographies
*DVD Easter Eggs
*Anamorphic Widescreen & 5.1 Surround Sound

5.0 out of 5 stars After all these years, it really is good to see this again! , September 20, 2005
By scotbot (the Negative Zone) - See all my reviews
If Charles Manson killed the hippie's "Summer Of Love", Alice Cooper mocked and humped the corpse. There could have been no better time for Alice Cooper to appear than in the early 70s. I was just a child at the time, standing around shadowy corners of the schoolyard where second hand stories of Alice's gory live act were whispered and traded like gruesome little folklore tales. Our parents tried to protect us, but we would spend amazing amounts of effort sneaking albums and 8-track tapes of Alice around, secretly listening to the forbidden musical gems. Anybody who saw the band live at this time must have sensed that they were witness to a historical moment in time... a moment that represented American pop-culture's bogus innocence being deflowered. These lovely blood spattered memories are now ours to cherish forever with the DVD release of "Good to See You Again Alice Cooper", available for the first time ever on home video.

Two nights of Alice Cooper's notorious 1973 Billion Dollar Babies tour (April 28th in Dallas and April 29th in Houston) were filmed to create this rare 1974 midnight matinee film, and it's a great testament to the riotous live act that made the Alice Cooper Group a threat to concerned parents everywhere. This DVD contains the original cut of the film which includes the band starring in charming little skits scattered amongst the astonishing live footage (The more common version of the film shown in theaters included old film and newsreel footage instead of the skits). A highly amusing moment among these skits features the band playing "The Lady Is a Tramp". Shout! Factory lovingly provides this release with a new high-definition film transfer along with a new Surround Sound mix created from the 16-track master tapes.

What uncomfortable items will Alice shove down his pants? What celebrity will be pummeled to a pulp by the band? Will the snake get out of control? Where will all the blood and spittle drip to? Will security be able to hold Alice back from attacking and brawling with audience members? Will Alice lose his head? The answers to these questions and more are available in "Good to See You Again Alice Cooper - The film that out-grosses them all".

5.0 out of 5 stars 'Good To See You Again,Alice Cooper - Live 1973 - Billion Dollar Babies Tour' (Shout! Factory), July 27, 2006
So happy to see this film has FINALLY been put out as a legit release.I remember umteen years ago,I think I paid big buck$ for a so-so quality VHS video tape copy of 'Good To See...'.I was one of those true Cooper fans that simply couldn't wait ANY longer to land down a copy of this movie.Saw it in a theater when it first came out in summer,1974.Highly appreciate this DVD's 'Watch Concert Only' option,although those old B&W snippets of vintage movies are fun to check out WHEN you have time.Tracks that this fan will have edged in the back of his mind for a long time to come are "Hello Hooray","Billion Dollar Babies","Elected",the exclusive(hadn't been played out on tour since)"My Stars","Dead Babies","I Love The Dead" and "School's Out".Also sort of dug the DVD's opening scene where Alice and band mock the torch song "Lady Is A Tramp".Thirty-three years ago,when this tour took place,the entertainment world was in fact shocked by the show's antics of a scroungy-looking rock star sticking a baby doll at the tip of a sword,humping a store mannequin,necrophila and a beheading.This WAS excitement(and still is)for those who seek it.The extras are nice to have as well.It's amazing to think JUST how much the world has changed since the notorious 'Billion Dollar Babies' trek had infested the American youth.Prime Shock Rock here JUST waiting to be fully experienced.An absolute MUST-HAVE.
