New Singles
(Circular, 1971-10-25)

He Could Drive Them Nervous
(Circular, 1971-11-01)
Alice Cooper arrived in England, to the unmitigated delight/dismay of the populace, with, sure enough, an electric chair, a boa constrictor and a straitjacket. The English didn't believe Alice would really bring those things. Wait till they find...
Alice Cooper
(Circular, 1971-11-22)
I love you and your group. Everytime I play your album in the house my mother gets mad at me. When you were playing in Chicago at the Opera House in April, my parents forbid me to go, and my sister and I had to sneak out of the house so my...

Preacher Alice
(Circular, 1972-02-28)
From Atlanta, Georgia, comes the news that Alice Cooper performed a wedding ceremony. As a preacher. He joined in holy though probably illegal matrimony Smokey Frisch and Debbie Bost. Alice made up the vows as he went along...
What Makes Alice Run?
(Circular, 1972-06-26)

Alice in the Studio
(Circular, 1973-04-16)
He's an expert theatrician in the studio. He's an actor. His studio craft is totally distinct from his stage craft. He takes a lot more time on each piece of material, and tends to be much more analytical. He's not so much reacting to the feel of an audience...
