ALICE COOPER ANNOUNCES NEW STUDIO ALBUM “DETROIT STORIES” - A HOMAGE TO HIS HOMETOWN TO BE RELEASED ON FEBRUARY 26, 2021 ON earMUSIC
Alice Cooper announces the release of his brand new studio album “Detroit Stories”, out on February 26, 2021 on earMUSIC.
Named for the city that launched the original Alice Cooper group on the road to success, “Detroit Stories” follows last year’s “Breadcrumbs” EP as a modern-day homage to the toughest and craziest Rock n Roll scene there ever was.
In 1970, fledgling producer Bob Ezrin walked into a farmhouse on the outskirts of Detroit to work with the Alice Cooper band. Abandoning flower power Los Angeles, because they were the opposite of the hippie peace and love ideal, Alice had brought his decidedly darker gang back to his birthplace to the legendary rock scene that gave birth to hard rock, garage rock, soul, funk, punk...and more.
Ezrin drilled the band for 10 hours a day to define their signature sound. Whenever they nailed a song, the inmates at the hospital for the criminally insane across the road cheered and thus the classic Alice Cooper sound was born.
"Detroit was Heavy Rock central then,” explains Alice, “You’d play the Eastown and it would be Alice Cooper, Ted Nugent, the Stooges and the Who, for $4! The next weekend at the Grande it was MC5, Brownsville Station and Fleetwood Mac, or Savoy Brown or the Small Faces. You couldn’t be a soft-rock band or you’d get your ass kicked."
“Los Angeles had its sound with The Doors, Love and Buffalo Springfield,” he says, “San Francisco had the Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane. New York had The Rascals and The Velvet Underground. But Detroit was the birthplace of angry hard rock. After not fitting in anywhere in the US (musically or image wise) Detroit was the only place that recognized the Alice Cooper guitar driven, hard rock sound and our crazy stage show. Detroit was a haven for the outcasts. And when they found out I was born in East Detroit... we were home.”
50 years later Alice and Ezrin gathered some legendary Detroit musicians in a Detroit studio to record Detroit Stories, Alice Cooper’s new album that celebrates that spirit for a new era. If 2019’s “Breadcrumbs” EP laid down the trail to the city, Detroit Stories drives like a muscle car right down Woodward Ave.
"We recorded with Wayne Kramer (guitarist and writer from the MC5), Johnny “Bee” Badanjek (drums - from the legendary Detroit Wheels), Paul Randolph (legendary Detroit jazz and R&B bassist) as well as the Motor City Horns and other local musicians,” explains Ezrin, "We had musical ideas and encouragement from John Varvatos, the support of the folks at Shinola, and we recorded at Rustbelt Studios in Royal Oak. This was Made In Detroit for Detroit by Detroit denizens!”
Discover Detroit Stories as they were meant to be told.
“Detroit Stories” will be available on CD, CD+DVD Digipak, CD Box Set (including CD, Blu-ray, T-shirt, face mask, torch light and 3 stickers), and 2LP Gatefold on February 26th 2021 on earMUSIC.
The DVD and Blu-ray will show the incredible live performance “A Paranormal Evening At The Olympia Paris” for the first time on video. With the whole concert culture being shut down due to covid-19, Alice Cooper felt the need to share one of his latest shows with his fans as he cannot wait to get back on the road - better than ever.

This man is like a real fucking good wine.
Almost 50 years later and this is still a great song
Truly
Hands down the best rock concert I've ever seen was Alice Cooper. It's like watching your favorite horror movie villain come to life with some kick ass rock music to back it up. Long live Alice.
What a true artist. Saw him as headliner of gods of metal 2004 bologna italy oh yeahh
Last time I saw him he didn't even have an opener he just went on. Who needs an opener when you're Alice Cooper.
In the 70's, a friend of mine loved Cooper. I wasn't a big fan. But as time went on, I've really become a fan. Im 57 now and enjoying his tunes. Amazing music, and and amazing stage presence for an older man. He's in GREAT shape for his age.
Alice Cooper does not age! That's wonderful !
What do you mean Alice doesn't age ? Watch the "welcome to my nightmare" video he did 2or 3 DECADES ago. He sure doesn't preform form like he use too. That's because he's too old-----
@@SandraMontano-si3uf
To me, he has improved. Age has made him fit into the Alice Cooper thing a bit more now than then.
30 years old... have seen him 4 times... easily one of the best shows going.
Alice forever
Will never tire of watching the grandmaster kick some ass.
Can't wait for 26th feb!
This is an absolutely brilliant rock performance by Alice and the band.
I was there at the same place i saw him the first time in 72 for the school's out tour. And i must say that he is still 18. Huge respect !
The best of the best
Outstanding!!!
His shows are always a great time
these older songs sound fresh as fuck
totally dragged into the now
How does this man get older and better at the same time? He literally ages backwards and forwards at the same time.
I saw him about a week ago. He was good, but unfortunately not as good as in this video. He’s still definitely impressive for his age though
well he gave up the booze about 20 years ago - that helps - and btw - one of the all time great drum intros on any song ...period
The band is fantastic. Have seen them twice in the 2010s and they delivered on both occasions!
I did in '07, '08 and '17- always great experience.
same here, saw them three times in the 2010s and they were some of the best shows I've seen.
I did in '73... The old folks didn't know what to make of him, A little spooked
I will be going to see Alice for the 49th time in April.. altho the original band was more creative, the band he has now is the best
IT ROCKS, long live Alice Cooper, this lin-up is my favorite ever!
i had that album in vinyl... good old times ️✌️😎👍 and still rockin'
We were there and it was a blast!!! 💜🔥💣💥
Wow... Thats is what i'm talking about, great performace
Never Seen a Bad Concert...And There Have Been Alot ..Rock On Alice 🤘🖤👏👏
40 times for me. Never a bad show is right! Rock on Rebel Rocker!
My Favorite version of live billion dollar babies :0
I'm going to see Alice with special guest Ace Frehley in October and I CANNOT wait! I've only had the pleasure of seeing him when he opened for Motley Crue a few years back. And I must say, as much as I love the Crue.....it felt inappropriate.
Absolutely unique performer.
What I'd give to see a live concert again ! Alice Cooper is incredible live. Always has been. I wish he'd do. Some from, Flush The Fashion 80'
Saw him in 2018... he did grim facts...kinda surprising....I think the whole show from Kansas city is on here
He performed pain in this show
He has done Grim Facts, Clones and Pain in recent years.
@@GarryWilliams555 I saw him a couple times back in 80-83...he didn't play much off those albums back then lol ....but then again...I saw the paranormal tour and he only did 1 song off that album
@@rayjohnson2387 He sure doesn't preform like he use to. He was really something else back then. Poor Alice is really old now and surely can't do what he did on stage back then--
I love his voice 😍
Saw this tour in Pittsburgh in the mid 70's. It was awesome.
1st album I ever bought...timeless
Always great musicians backing him through the years. Way underated guitar band. 🎸
You are a fantastic singer and cherish this album when you first recorded it !
VINCENT DAMON FURNIER - you are BEST ! Respekt from Estonia !
Keep rockin!!!! Happy birthday Alice!!!
What a Rocker @ 75.
Still the coolest!
Awesome
When new hard rock bands emerge they shouldn’t ask for a music production licence, they should be Alice Cooper certified.
Best AC song ever...! love
If only I could have seen the real BDB's tour in '73 ...it came through my city but was too young to go...😐
Alice cooper still a god rocking out today cant wait for the new tour
Donovan sings backup vocals on original studio version of this!
It's the Alice Cooper show not just a concert , been friends for decades.
Awesome!!
Alice still has it! And the bad is great!
👌 fantastic
SUPER!
How anyone can give this a thumbs down is beyond me..
Grew up listening to AC and this is sick seeing him looking so awesome and sounding just perfect! Love to AC from a lover in Seattle
missssss Aliceeeeeeeeee
Dylan NBC & Alice got a hole in ONE.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 encore!
my fav moment is at 3:29 when the teleprompter messes up the song "The world needs guts" and changes it to "The world needs butts"
Messes up or improves?
Excellent audio quality. Sub earned.
Band is so HOT! Alice gathered around him just a bomb! BOOOM!!!! BOOOM!!!
My fiance gave me the best bday present alice did a video for me fuck yeah
cool!
💯❤️
❤️❤️❤️
Billion dollar baby
Rubber little lady, slicker than a weasel
Grimy as an alley, loves me like no other lover
Billion dollar baby
Rubber little monster, baby I adore ya
Man or woman living
Couldn’t love you like me baby
[Chorus]
We go dancing nightly in the attic
While the moon is rising in the sky
If I'm too rough tell me
I'm so scared your little head
Will come off in my hands
Aww!
Yeah, billion dollar baby
I got you in a dimestore
No other little girl could ever
Hold you any tighter
Any tighter than me maybe
Billion dollar baby
Reckless like a gambler, million dollar maybe
Fighting like a dog
That's been infected by the rabies
We go dancing nightly in the attic
While the moon is rising in the sky
If I'm too rough tell me
I'm so scared your little head
Will come off in my hands
Million dollar baby
Yeah, billion dollar baby
Trillion dollar baby
Zillion dollar baby
Billion dollar baby
Billion dollar baby, baby ♥️ 3:29
brutal !!!!!
Would love to hear Donovan do it live like the LP version
I remember Donavan---
I just noticed that there's lyrics on screen in front of him .
Класс!!!
🤘
As vezes acho que ele é velho demais para fazer show, daí vejo isso é falo " ainda tá com tudo"
🤘💘
Top
do I have to buy the box to get the concert on blu ray? no stand alone blu ray release? I dont want to buy the CD/DVD-bundle if there's any blu ray out there! love Alice and love the new album!
То є файна музика!!!
No hay más tiempo
No Giant Baby on this one, but still great stage performance!!!
Cool ! When was it?
Older songs actually sound better live
Неплохо.
😝😝😝
Nita @ 2:15... :o
Not Blu ray?
can't beat the 70 s incarnation though. This is OK I guess but that original Alice Cooper band was way cool.
😎👍😁🤟🎼☠️🖤🍻 Smile. \m/ ' [-_-] ' \m/....Bye... Bottoms up and cheers...Stay loud, stay proud, stay heavy. Take care, be strong, and stay safe ....... #Adanporsiempre ..........
This is Alice performing without the makeup.
He's still wearing eyeliner
The babbies have outdone the relevant past, in the here and now.
This TOUR was KICK BUTT
Кто играет на барабанах?
Little did he know that he’d still be relevant when the national debt is counted in tens of trillions of $$$
Was he trying to expose child trafficking or glorifying it?
Guitars need serious work. 1:06 ..the high harmonies, hanmer ons, and held notes are mass cringe. Maybe alice wanted it that way but fuuuuucc
Awesome!!
