Alice Cooper Radio Special Warner Bros PRO-A-789 Double Vinyl LP Gatefold Compilation 1979 PROMO Generally excellent condition throughout, Sides 1,2,4 only minor surface sections on quieter sections, Side 3 has a minor surface mark which causes some slight 'pops' during Millie and Billie but no jumps or scratches and this doesn't really detract from what is overall a great listen throughout. Labels excellent  Cover has some edge wear as can be seen in photos but again overall excellent condition An absolute must for any serious Alice collector , below review gives a good idea of what to expect , the  album also includes contributions from Sheryl Cooper and Shep Gordon
“For the next 90 minutes you’ll take a spellbinding journey inside the man known as Alice Cooper…” M.G. Kelly narrates this interview impersonating Rod Serling from The Twightlight Zone. This double vinyl album is to promote “From The Inside” release. This interview starts from the early days to the current time. Majority is focused on his solo career and of course making of “From The Inside” album.

Side 1 & 2 cover some of the early Alice Cooper with songs “School’s Out”, “I’m Eighteen”, and “Billion Dollar Babies”. Then has his solo material “Only Woman Bleed”, “I Never Cry” and “You & Me” his hat-trick ballad hits.

Side 3 & 4 covers all the tracks on “From The Inside” in order. Beginning of Side 3 starts off with “Ballad of Dwight Fry” which fits in to the hospital theme of his new release. Alice talks over the songs at times to point out the references and why he wrote these songs or what was happening at that time. It’s very informative and insightful.

This is an original promotional 2 LP Alice Cooper “Radio Special”. It was issued by Warner Brothers Records in 1979. It was distributed to radio stations, the music press and music industry V.I.P.s. It was never made available to the general public.

The album features music and interviews with Alice Cooper. It is narrated by M.G. Kelly and runs for 90 minutes. This interview record was pressed in limited quantities, making it a very collectable piece Segment One 10.32 A1Hello Hooray A2Gutter Cat Vs.
