Originally, in that respect was a stria called Alice Cooper light-emitting diode by a singer named Vincent Damon Furnier. Under his direction, Alice Cooper pioneered a grandly theatrical and violent make of heavy alloy that was intentional to jounce. Drawing as from revulsion movies, music hall, heavy alloy, and garage rock, the chemical group created a stage demonstrate that featured electric chairs, guillotines, fake rakehell, and immense feather boa constrictors, all interconnected by the heavily made-up Furnier. By that metre, Furnier had adopted the diagnose for his androgynous onstage personality. While the visuals were highly important to the group's impact, the band's euphony was closely as classifiable. Driven by raw, simple riffs and melodies that derived from '60s guitar pop as well as show tunes, it was rock-and-roll & roll at its most introductory and catchy, regular when the banding ventured into psychedelia and artistry rock music. After the original group bust up and Furnier began a solo vocation as Alice Cooper, his actual music befuddled most of its theatrical flourishes, becoming straightforward impenetrable alloy, hitherto his stage usher maintained all of the trademark props that made him the b. B. King of shock rock.


Furnier formed his first mathematical group, the Earwigs, as an Arizona adolescent in the other '60s. Changing the band's name to the Spiders in 1965, the radical was finally called the Nazz (not to be confused with Todd Rundgren's banding of the same name). The Spiders and the Nazz both released local singles that were moderately popular. In 1968, after discovering there was some other stripe called with the same make, the group changed its name to Alice Cooper. According to banding legend, the name came to Furnier during a ouija board session, where he was told he was the renascence of a 17th-century witch of the same name. Comprised of singer Furnier -- wHO would soon begin career himself Alice Cooper -- guitar player Mike Bruce, guitar player Glen Buxton, bassist Dennis Dunaway, and drummer Neal Smith, the mathematical group moved to California in 1968. In California, the mathematical group met Shep Gordon, wHO became their manager, and Frank Zappa, wHO gestural Alice Cooper to his Straight Records imprint.


Alice Cooper released their first album, Pretties for You, in 1969. Easy Action followed early in 1970, til now it failed to chart. The group's report in Los Angeles was slowly shrinking, so the ring moved to Furnier's hometown of Detroit. For the succeeding year, the radical refined their off-the-wall stage show. Late in 1970, the group's contract was transferred to Straight's electrical distributor Warner Bros., and they began recording their third base album with producer Bob Ezrin.


With Ezrin's help, Alice Cooper developed their classical heavy alloy grind on 1971's Love It to Death, which featured the number 21 hit single "18"; the album peaked at number 35 and went au. The winner enabled the radical to grow a more telling, elaborate live establish, which made them highly popular concert attractions across the U.S. and eventually the U.K. Orcinus orca, released late in 1971, was some other gold album. Released in the summer of 1972, School's Out was Alice Cooper's breakthrough disc, peaking at number deuce and merchandising over a gazillion copies. The form of address song became a Top Ten hit in the U.S. and a number one undivided in the U.K. 1000000000 Dollar Babies, released the following year, was the group's biggest hit, arrival number one in both America and Britain; the album's first single, "No More Mr. Nice Guy," became a Top Ten hit in Britain, peaking at number 25 in the U.S. Musculus of Love appeared late in 1973, til now it failed to capitalise on the success of One million million Dollar Babies. After Musculus of Love, Furnier and the breathe of Alice Cooper parted shipway to follow up on other projects. Having officially changed his identify to Alice Cooper, Furnier embarked on a likewise theatrical solo career; the rest of the band released one stillborn album under the discover Billion Dollar Babies, piece Mike Bruce and Neal Smith both recorded solo albums that were never issued. In the fall of 1974, a compilation of Alice Cooper's five Warner albums, entitled Alice Cooper's Greatest Hits, became a Top Ten hit.


For his number one solo album, Cooper leased Lou Reed's financial support isthmus from Tilt 'N' Roll Animal -- guitarists Dick Wagner and Steve Hunter, bassist Prakash John, keyboardist Joseph Chrowski, and drummer Penti Glan -- as his supporting radical. Receive to My Nightmare, Alice Cooper's first solo album, was released in the spring of 1975. The track record wasn't a great difference from his former work, and it became a Top Ten hit in America, launch the bump off acoustic ballad "Only Women Bleed"; its winner invest an end to any thought of reconvening Alice Cooper the band. Its followup, 1976's Alice Cooper Goes to Hell, was some other bump off, loss gold in the U.S. After Alice Cooper Goes to Hell, Cooper's life history began to slickness, partly due to ever-changing trends and partially referable to his alcoholism. Cooper entered rehabilitation in 1978, writing an album around his handling called From the Inside (1978) with Bernie Taupin, Elton John's lyricist. During the early '80s, Cooper continued to release albums and term of enlistment, thus far he was no thirster as popular as he was during his early-'70s prime.


Frank Cooper made a successful comeback in the late '80s, sparked by his appearances in horror films and a series of pop-metal bands that paid musical homage to his classical early records and concerts. Constrictor, released in 1986, began his comeback, just it was 1989's Trash that returned Cooper to the glare. Produced by the proved hitmaker Desmond Child, Applesauce featured edgar Albert Guest appearances by Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, and most of Aerosmith; the record became a Top Ten strike in Britain and under the weather at number 20 in the U.S., going away platinum. "Poison," a mid-tempo rocker featured on the record album, became Cooper's first Top Ten individual since 1977. After the acquittance of Chicken feed, he continued to star in the occasional plastic film, circuit, and record, although he wasn't able to hold the audience recaptured with Trash. Still, 1991's Hey Stoopid and 1994's The Last Temptation were more often than not solid, professional efforts which helped Cooper settle into a comfortable cult status without negative the critical goodwill circumferent his '70s turnout. After a live album, 1997's Handful of Alice, Cooper returned on the smaller Spitfire pronounce in 2000 with Brutal Planet and Dragontown a year later. The Eyes of Alice Cooper appeared in 2003 and found Alice and company playacting a more stripped-down make of near-garage careen. Dirty Diamonds from 2005 was virtually as raw and attain the streets around the same time Alice premiered his syndicated radio show, Nights with Alice Cooper.
