Description
??Rock and Roll Legend Alice Cooper is known for his twisted and deranged theatrical performance in combination with his hard rock and roll. Originally rejected in LA by record label after record label....he eventually lived up to (and far exceeded) his high school year book's "aspiration" of one day selling a million dollar record. Raised by a preacher, and the grandson of an evangelist, Alice Cooper has an eerie similarity (in my opinion) to Screamin' Jay Hawkins and the Screamin' Jay style song "I Put a Spell On You" (which is why I'm making that episode a sister episode to this one: links below). I can't help but wonder if Alice Cooper (aka Vincent Furnier) got some inspiration from Alan Freed & Jay Hawkins. While that part remains uncertain, one thing is for sure: Alice Cooper's unwavering faith in God healed him from his darkest hours and brought us the sickest most insane Alice Cooper we ever could have imagined. How this man is able to compartmentalize his show business with his faith and personal life is an inspiration to artists everywhere. He's more than a professional in the business, he's an icon, a pioneer, and a true staple. I've gone through hours and hours of Alice Cooper interviews and I wish I could insert them all into one Roots Rockumentary, but alas, there is simply not enough time! So I will link all of my favorite Alice Cooper conversations below. Many of these I have listened to in a hypnosis and some have brought me to tears. He is the epitome of loving father, husband, and true performer and I'm feeling a LITTLE BIT OF PRESSURE attempting to tell his story here. So, I sincerely apologies if I say anything slightly incorrect or don't get a fact completely right. As always if there are any corrections they will be in the comments and in the description here, too. I hope you enjoy the story of Alice Cooper as much as I do you #SICKTHING YOU!!!!!!! :) ??
