Alice Cooper - Killer

1971

Hard rock that gets psychedelic. A classic.

Alice Cooper - Billion Dollar Babies

The last really good Alice Cooper record (The great ones were a couple back from this). All the experimental/psychedelicness is gone, but these are solid 70's rock songs. Solid album. Flows really well. Starts getting weak towards the end.

Alice Cooper - Love It To Death

This is the third Alice Cooper record. Totally different than the first two. Most people seem to credit producer Bob Ezrin for giving the band a more commercial rock focus. This one rocks. Good record. It rocks real good but still has some of the oddness of the earlier albums. Tripped out like Pink Floyd and the Doors.

It's got I'm Eighteen.

I think the band located to Detroit around this time and picked up on how things were done from The Stooges and MC5.

Alice Cooper - Easy Action

Psychedelic oddness jams. A good one for the kids trippin' out in their dorm rooms.

Alice Cooper - Pretties For You

1969

Early Who meets CSN type trippy 60's harmonies with psychedelic guitar solos. Did I mention the Who influence? And some Frank Zappa type oddness.

Alice Cooper - Welcome to my Nightmare

Changing to Alice Cooper the solo artist like David Bowie. Semi bloated self indulgent crap mostly.

and it's a concept album...get's a little better on side 2.
