Squat Cobbler 38: Alice Cooper – Trash (review)

“I’ll drive you like hammer on the bed of nails”

This week Mike and Kelly discuss Alice Cooper’s 18th album, “Trash”.

They are pretty sure this is still the best selling of all of Alice’s albums and it featured a major return to the singles chart with “Poison”.

While it certainly can be debated, both Mike and Kelly felt this was a good album, just not a good Alice Cooper album.  Tons of guest stars including Jon Bon Jovi, Steven Tyler and Kip Winger may have contributed to that.

Had this whole album been done live, it would have fared much better in the rankings.  Song like Poison and Trash really are a whole different level of awesome live.  For example:
