I hear the sirens calling
As the rain is gently falling

Hello and, erm, hooray!

Alice Cooper speaking to The Berkeley Barb in 1970: “The music that affected us was the saucy theme songs, like on ’77 Sunset Strip’ and ‘Bourbon Street Beat’. That was the kind of thing was going on when we were watching TV. Our conditioning has been television, our conditioning has been the space age, so that’s the kind of music we’re going to play. We’re not going to play Delta blues. I don’t care how many times his baby left him.”
