Snakes! Guillotines! Electric Chairs! My Adventures in the Alice Cooper Group by Dennis Dunaway and Chris Hodenfield

Here we have the inside story about one of the most inspirational and fundamental groups in the history of Rock in the Alice Cooper Group! Without them, I don't think I would have been into Horror Rock or theatrics in a stage show. They were like my gateway to this kind of music in a way. This book is not like others where it tells you about his childhood for a 100 pages or so but gets right into the nitty gritty of it all telling us how the Earwigs became the Nazz and then, finally, Alice Cooper! We get the story behind the meeting with Frank Zappa, who the chicken really belonged to and, what happened in the end that broke the group up. Also, we get the full insight on the reunion of friends and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction. There is not a lot of finger pointing as this is not that kind of book. It is entertaining, funny and a joy to read. Dunaway is one of my bass idols and Alice Cooper is one of my favorite bands/artists EVER! This is a must read for fans of the man or the group as this is the inside scoop from a man who was there through it all, lived through it all and can now tell the story about how Alice Cooper represented by 5 guys before the name stood for just 1.
