    okay that's the best thing I've heard/seen in a looong time on UA-cam! This is one of them "unknown" tracks off of Killer but was probably my favorite off the LP. Well, that's hard to say because Killer was just absolute gold every song. But, man, I loved this tune back then. And they did it sweet justice here. And thumbs up to Alice for bringing these young musicians in and having them learn great hard rock that is now 50+ yrs old. Man, I can't believe I just said that.

    I saw the original Alice Cooper band at Manzanita Raceway in Phoenix in 73. Open festival seating, so we got there early to get center stage, about a row back. It was blankets and lawn chairs and an absolutely amazing show. They did this and then Ballad of Dwight Fry back to back and it was one of the best stage shows AnD music performances I've ever seen. This current band is tight to say the least but the orginal band was legendary. Rip Glen. You were one of the very best.

    Yes, there was progressive rock in '71! I can't imagine the rehearsals that they sweated through to kill this one. The blonde virtuoso is Nita Strauss; a perfect fit for Alice's theatrical style.

    I've got the answers
    To all of your questions
    If you've got the money
    To pay me in gold
    I will be living
    In old Monte Carlo
    And you will be reading
    The secrets of soul
    Daggers and contacts
    And bright shiny limos
    I've got a watch
    That turns into a lifeboat
    Glimmering nightgowns
    Poisonous as cobras
    Silencer under the heel of my shoe
    The elegance of China
    They sent her to lie here on her back
    But as she deeply moves me
    She'd rather shoot me in my tracks
    And while a Middle Asian lady
    She really came as no surprise
    But I still did destroy her
    And I will smash
    Halo of flies
    I crossed the ocean
    Where no one could see
    And I put a time-bomb
    In your submarine
    Goodbye to old friends
    The secret's in hand
    With phonied up papers
    And counterfeit plans
    You never will understand
