Alice Cooper - From The Inside (Live 1979)

The Strange Case of Alice Cooper is a live concert video release of Alice Cooper, first released on VHS in 1979. The concert was filmed on April 9, 1979 during Cooper's 'Madhouse Rock' Tour in support of the album "From The Inside" in San Diego, California.

Lyrics:
I got lost on the road somewhere
Was it Texas or was it Canada
Drinking whiskey in the morning light
I work the stage all night long
At first we laughed about it
My long haired drunken friends
Proposed a toast to Jimmy's ghost
I never dreamed that I would wind up on the losing end

I'm stuck here on the inside looking out
I'm just another case
Where's my makeup where's my face on the inside

All got your kicks from what you saw up there
Eight bucks even buys a folding chair
I was downing seagrams on another flight
And I worked that stage all night long
You were screaming for the villain up there
And I was much obliged
The old road sure screwed me good this time
It's hard to see where the vicious circle ends

I'm stuck here on the inside looking out
That's no big disgrace
Where's my makeup where's my face on the inside

I love that Alice got Vincent Price to do the intro for this. Speaking of which, he actually opened quite a few of Alice's shows.
Vincent Price, man. I wish that man had never died.

This album never got great reviews, but it is one of my favourites. Am I wrong?

Saw this show in Grandforks in 79. Awesome everything. Alice repelled down onto the stage The Baby’s opened.

I know every song on this album by heart. As a child, I worried about Veronica and hoped he got out and saved her in time. I saw my first Alice Cooper concert when I was 7 years old, sitting on my dad's shoulders at Compton Terrace in Arizona, I think this was in '79 or '80. I have since, taken my kids to see Cooper in concert and last Summer, I took my 7 year old grandson to see him too. He is a family tradition. After all, We're All Crazy!!!

Im so glad this man conquered his daemons.
We need Alice Cooper now more than ever!

This is such a classic album...love the songs and the themes and characters...but this song kicks some serious ass and wish he played it more often live!!!

[gogoyubari]

Actually, when I look at this, I can't help but think that Alice Cooper was one hell of a good actor!!

This album was my introduction to Alice. My favourite album with brutal planet in close place (depending on my mood)

[Kaephus-kknz]

Oh yeah! And surrounded by the very best musicians

[tps]

this is my favorite album of all time, the most underrated ---but I wish he would sing the songs better live than this

[starsville]

I love this album and alot of Alice cooper albums

[TheOakqueen]

As an Alice fan, I must say, I have never seen him sing this live!!! Thanks, ShoutFactoryMusic ( I am 56, saw him first time when I was 13!!  AND, saw him MANY times after!) Keep up the GOOD WORK!!! :-)
