Alice Cooper, Musician
 |
On Philadelphia: "Philly was one of the cities that really liked Alice Cooper. In the early days, before we had any hits, we used to play the old Electric Factory and little clubs around town. We just saw the Dalì exhibit here. Before I was in a band I was an art major in school. Salvador Dalì was like the Beatles to me. When I got a call from him saying he wanted to work with me, it was like Paul McCartney calling and saying he wanted to write a song with me. There were so many clubs in the '70s here in Philly we used to go to. The fact that I can't remember much means it had to have been the '70s. There was one-was it Artemis? It was at the same time as Studio 54, and it had a big gorilla over the bar. Isn't that weird?"
Good to See You Again, Alice Cooper: Live 1973, a film that documents the group's early days, is now available on DVD.
