-----------------------------------------------------------

EvenSpot.com officially closes today.
If anyone who followed evenspot.com I appreciate it.
It actually started as an exercise in learning Dreamweaver software
I believe I started off w/ Adobe GoLive then Dreamweaver.
Then continued for over 10 years of my reviews of Alice Cooper collection
from official albums, books, bootlegs, videos, etc...

I decided to change to evenspotspeaks blogspot
and view my printed Alice Cooper collection along w/
other Alice Cooper memorabilia.

I don't know if EvenSpot.com will return and if so
maybe under another name. I kept all my copy so
if I do I just have to update. 

Thanks to all and continue visiting

2003, march, Blender, Neal Smith, Where Are They Now? (photo error)

This issue included a section titled

"Where Are They Now?

Life After Rock"

Blender talks to Neal Smith

Now I am not surprised by Blender making a mistake

as they circle Glen Buxton instead of Neal Smith.

I emailed Blender of the mistake but never seen any

editorial correction in the following issues.

Pg 56, "Where Are They Now?

Life After Rock"

Spotify for FREE

This is just for some of the people who are not familiar 

with Spotify.

If you are interested in listening to complete albums of artist

this is the place to go. You can't download them but you can hear 

the entire album. This is good to check out before purchasing

a CD or iTune. 

They list all of the Alice Cooper catalog unfortunately they list the 

'69 Toronto Festival bootleg about 10 times of course under different titles.

Also I have no idea why but they have two artists not even related to Alice Cooper.

This is a FREE site of course there is an option if you pay you don't

get the commercial ads that only last about 30 seconds 

after every 2 or 3 songs. It's not a big deal.

Pg 35

Pg 58

Pg 13 full page

here's the full page that included Flush The Fashion

it's right under Lou Reed's Growing Up In Public

that they also gave a poor review. 

Honestly Growing Up In Public is one of my favorite Reed lps.

Reviews on Pete Townshend's Empty Glass that was very popular

and one of his best solos. Another favorite of mine is Thin Lizzy's 

Phil Lynott who released his first solo Solo In Soho lp.

Plus others like Billy Squier, Ted Nugent and more.
