October 16, 2008, 15 years ago
ALICE COOPER was interviewed by host George Stroumboulopoulos on CBC's The Hour on Monday night, October 13th.
Hype for the segment, from The Hour, reads: "Alice Cooper - The King Of Shock Rock and a true pioneer of rock and roll. But get this - he's also a devout Christian (he's a substitute Sunday school teacher, reformed alcoholic and an avid golfer (he's written a book on golf). To truly appreciate his genius, think about what music was like, when he hit the scene in the late '60s. He invented rock n' roll theatre and in the '70s, Alice's career exploded. He became the poster boy for evil and every parent's worst nightmare. But his fans have always loved him. Alice has sold more than 50 million albums, he has a radio show 5 nights a week, he turned 60 this year and he's touring again - for his 25th studio album. That's right, his 25th. It's called Along Came A Spider and it's about a serial killer. Oh, how very Alice."
