Free Music Review: ALICE COOPER MAKES WAX; SPELLS POP BACKWARDS
Hit: 5 Stars
If I had found this album years ago, I probably would have dismissied it pretty quickly. One usually expects a certain sound from The Alice Cooper band; and that type of sound isn't found on Pretties For You. Pretties is the Alice Cooper Band rolling through their psychedelic sixties, punk-faced, Beatle induced numbers, with just a little hint at their attention to macarbe details, and more focus instead on their attention to ironic word play, and just messin you up. It seems that the band hadn't gotten into hard edged guitar riffs yet, and these songs become a collection of demented sixties pop- that I'm sure would have been beyond me years ago, when I started getting into Alice Cooper. I'm glad that I waited a few years before picking up the original Alice Cooper release(s). Because I instantly found myself digging this. Alice Cooper is more in the camp of tripped out metal pioneers, like Arthur Brown or Spooky Tooth, only he was also under the thumb of Frank Zappa, and most of the songs add up to nothing more than a practical joke, from the artist to the record buyer... however, despite what others say about certain songs falling apart and not making sense, I don't really hear it that way. A lot of times the original Alice Cooper band had a knack for falling in and out of form from time to time. Even on the later Warner releases. What might not make sense to many is the total absense of hard rock, and the completely Beatles-On-Way-Too-Much-Acid feel of this album. However, I think a good many of you may just find they like when this thing happens, just as much..if not more, than the AC bands more popular future releases... The bands next album; Easy Action is an extension of this, and works some of the same magic, but kicks the amps up a few notches too. I recommend getting into both. Pop music for a backwards existence. Arrrrrr. Something like that! If you are new to the Coop though, you may wanna check out something from the Warner Bros. years... but this one, I like to think of as a pleasant suprise either way.
Pretties for You (Jewl) Poster
Reissue of the 1969 album Pretties for You which was the first album by Alice Cooper. At this time, the name Alice Cooper referred to the band as well as its lead singer. The music has a psychedelic flavor to it. The group had yet to develop the more concise hard rock sound that they would become known for. The song "Reflected", Alice Cooper's first single, was later rewritten as "Elected" (which featured on their 1973 album Billion Dollar Babies).Classic Rock Music CDs
