The Greatist Recordings of all Time

49."Gutter Cat Vs. The Jets"-Alice Cooper

The original Alice Cooper Band was one of tightest,Hard Rocking,and Outrageous
Rock bands in the entire history of Rock 'n Roll-and thats what fans loved about them.
Thier live show during the"Schools Out" tour at Firebird Raceway near Boise was by far
the greatist rock concert i've ever attended-and i've attended alot of Rock Concerts-
Including some of the greatist rock bands of all time-but nothing matches up to the
total mastery of the stage and supersonic wall of sound and perfection that was the
Alice Cooper Band that night.
This song from the "Schools Out" album is a classic.A song propelled by one of
thier lead guitarists,Glen Buxton's awesome guitar riffs-on most of thier biggest hits
it was his incredible penchant for coming up with the coolest guitar riff's of all-time
that was nitro-fuel that drove thier hits to the top of the charts.He's the most under-
rated rock guitarist's of all time-he was a great lead player too.
All that and more are evidenced on "Gutter Cat" which was part of the show that
night.They played nearly every song on "Schools Out" and between the bands awesome
firepower and Alice's total command of the stage and his fanstastic vocals they were
truely in a class of thier own-one so high that nobody,no other rock band ever came
close to the one of a kind awesomeness that was the original Alice Cooper Band at the
Peak of thier Powers.
