EP44: Alice Cooper "Halo of Flies"

from The History of Heavy Podcast

During their hard/shock rocking heyday which spanned four excellent albums beginning with 1971's Love It to Death, Alice Cooper was more than a man, they were a band. And while leader singer Vincent Furnier would adopt his famous stage name and alter-ego early on, the remaining four members of the Alice Cooper Group brought deft songwriting and killer chops to the increasingly chaotic notorious live shows that would give their music lasting credibility decades later. In this episode, we mistakenly identify Killer, the album that includes the track "Halo of Flies" as a 1973 release but recover nicely and use our blunder as an excuse the examine the whole of Mr Cooper (and this band's) discography.       Recommended Listening, Watching & Reading Jello Biafra & The Melvins  https://open.spotify.com/track/071YYZlOxBdhESQYrLDYrn?si=9da65eb193874156     HHP Spotify Playlist  https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2qkURdYib8hLz8s20D9yTC?si=1526168526854a62   HHP on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@the.history.of.hea?_t=ZP-8z7me40bcbu&_r=1   HHP Instagram https://instagram.com/the_history_of_heavy   @historyofheavy
