1989, Poison, Maxi Single - 45RPM

This Maxi Single 45RPM is the size of an album but is a speed of 45rpm.
"Poison" single on side one and on side 2 includes 2 live tracks.


Front cover sleeve.
Same photo that is on the TRASH  album cover.
I still have the price label on the front that was too sticky to remove
w/out damage. It was dated 9/19/89 for $6.99. They wrote "Bin" to
say where I retrieved the record from in the record store.



Back cover



Side 1: POISON


Side 2: 
1. BALLAD OF DWIGHT FRY
2. COLD ETHYL
Both live tracks from 1987 Cincinnati Gardens
that was broadcast on American radio as the Superstars in Concert series.

1982, For Britain Only, UK Release, 12 inch, 45rpm Vinyl

I remember accidentally finding this record. I was at Rocket Records looking through
the Alice Cooper bin when I came across this new release.
It's a 45RPM but the size of a vinyl album.
Including the new track "For Britain Only" and 3 live tracks.

Alice Cooper Live From The Astroturf limited single

I received my limited edition of
Alice Cooper Live From The Astroturf that was
recorded last year at Good Records in Dallas, TX.
This was also when Dennis Dunaway did a book signing at
Good Records to promote his book "Snakes! Guillotines! Electric Chairs!
My Adventures In The Alice Cooper Group" (a must read to
all Alice Cooper fans).
During this brief concert Chris Penn of Good Records
put out a special limited edition 7" single of this event
to be released on Black Friday/Record Day.

Not going into much detail since Alice Cooper fans know pretty much
of this single. I am just scanning my limited edition.

In closing I did enjoy listening to the original band playing together again.
I hope to hear more in the future.

"I'm Eighteen"


"Is It My Body"

1980, Clones 45rpm, Plus Mono & Stereo

I ended up w/ two Clones (We're All) 45 rpm's but one was a promo that has Clones (We're All) on both sides.

This was Alice's first New Wave album. He even changed his make up and singing style.
The track Pain came close to classic Alice. Clones (We're All) was written by David Carron.
In 1996 Smashing Pumpkins did a version of this on their box set Aeroplane Flies High.


The official single release has same photo from 
the back of Flush The Fashion album




The single Clones (We're All)



Model Citizen side



This 45rpm came in the same picture sleeve 
as the single that reads Clones (We're All) b/w Model Citizen
I take it this wasn't the official packaging.
A promo since it printed on the label "Not For Sale"
which has Clones (We're All) on both sides. 
One side in Stereo the other in Mono.

2010, Keepin' Halloween Alive, 45rpm

In 2010 Alice put out a Limited Edition 45 of "Keepin' Halloween Alive
and B side is "I Love The Dead" live.


Front cover
Love the artwork.
45rpm is kept in a plastic sleeve.
The artwork flaps open and is only attached at the bottom.
This image of Alice was taken in 1974 during his appearance 
on The Snoop Sisters TV series.


Other side has an image from one of "Along Came A Spider" photos
This is similar to the mugshot promo shot



Side 1: "Keepin' Halloween Alive"


Side 2: "I Love The Dead" Live
Taken from "Theatre Of Death" DVD/CD
This is a short version w/ only the chorus.
Alice's hasn't sang the lyrics to this song in a long time. 
It's used as they take him to his execution while the band just
sings the chorus.



They also released an iTunes version which was only
"Keepin' Halloween Alive" and the 2nd track was a karaoke version
or as they called it Cooperoke Mix of "Keepin' Halloween Alive"
The artwork is different I'll post it if I find it but the youtube video below 
shows you the iTunes cover art.

1978, How You Gonna See Me Now / No Tricks, 45rpm

I have the 45 of "How You Gonna See Me Now" w/ out a picture sleeve.
I do remember buying this because of Side 2 "No Tricks" w/ R&B singer Betty Wright
that wasn't on "From The Inside" album. This is a great concept album.


"How You Gonna See Me Now"



"No Tricks" w/ Betty Wright


"No Tricks" I thought was an excellent song. 
I thought it showed Alice's singing versatility.
It sort of reminds me as "Blue Turk" being a Jazz number
"No Tricks" an R&B song.


This is an image of the photo sleeve 
if you were lucky enough to purchase it.
Shot was from inside the "From The Inside" album.



If you wondering what Betty Wright looks like 
this is her Live album from 1978.



Someone was kind enough to post "No Tricks" on youtube

1991, Love's A Loaded Gun / Fire 45RPM

From Alice's next album HEY STOOPID which I thought was much better than TRASH.
Like TRASH this album also has a load of guest musicians.

Alice releases "Love's A Loaded Gun" and B side Jimi Hendrix "Fire" which wasn't
on HEY STOOPID that later appeared on CLASSICKS CD in 1995.




Alice covers a Jimi Hendrix song "Fire"
which later appears on a 1995 Best of release
titled CLASSICKS.

1973, Hello Hooray/Generation Landslide, 45rpm

1973, Hello Hooray / Generation Landslide
What is interesting is the 45 doesn't say Side 1 or Side 2

1986, He's Back (The Man Behind The Mask), 45rpm

First single from the 1986 Constrictor album.

He's Back (The Man Behind The Mask) appears in 
the "Friday The 13th, Part VI: Jason Lives" movie.

Hard Rock Summer by Alice appears in the movie which isn't on
the Constrictor album. You have to wait until 1999 when the
4 CD Box Set The Life & Crimes of Alice Cooper is released.



I notice on this side of the sleeve they didn't list
the title of the new album Constrictor
Instead they write
"From The Forthcoming Alice Cooper Album..."
I guess they didn't have the title during the printing.




Side 2 is Billion Dollar Babies recorded live in 1976.
It is mentioned that this is actually from 1982
Alice In Paris or known as The Paris Special.
The song recorded w/out an audience. 
Later they edited the crowd in the final production.
