Alice Cooper & Friends (1977 TV Special)
5/10
Not quite as bad as they say...
3 December 2007
Warning: Spoilers
This is the video released in the 80s that contains the infamous "Chicken with Machine Guns" number and a lethargic Alice who really doesn't want to be there. The show starts off with a seemingly content Alice doing "School's Out", then cuts to Nazareth, Sha-Na-Na. and the Tubes before going back to Alice. Most of the songs Alice does are incomplete, some as short as a minute. He mumbles through "Billion Dollar Babies" and forgets the lyrics in "I Love the Dead". In the latter song, when the executioner makes him put his head in the guillotine, he shouts "I don't want to, I don't want to". Hard to tell if this was part of the script or not. Nazareth sings Love Hurts, and Sha-Na-Na, which covers 50's classics like "Yakkity Yak" and "Leader of the Pack", is the most fun to watch.
