The week of August 27th -31st is shaping up quite nicely Thank You and that’s in thanks to Alice Cooper who is not only rolling into Thunder Bay and playing a show here on August 29th(My Brother Todd scored us Tickets!) but as well on the 31st Coop is releasing a Double Live album titled A Paranormal Evening At The Olympia Paris”.
BAM!
Once again my Character Flaw took hold of me as iTunes has the album on preorder with two tracks dropping straight onto my iPod right away!
Those two tracks are “Ballad of Dwight Fry” and “Poison”
Upon first listen these two tracks sound LIVE! The audio sounds like it was left alone and the the mix doesn’t sound polished. The Backing Vocals/Music as well sound Live…
I’m thinking not too much studio trickery went on with the album.
Check it out as I posted the Poison track (audio) at the top of the page!

Hey Man. You’re not the only one who does that with Pre-Orders. Especially when it’s something like a Coop album or any huge band I love.

You can’t fight the Character Flaw! I’ve fallen off the Coop train lately but I’m sure he still delivers live.

I just picked up Live from Wacken yesterday and I’m having a hard time deciding whether I prefer it to A Fistful of Alice. They’re both excellent.
Although there’s little overlap between Wacken and Paris, I’ll probably wait a bit before I get Paris. I’m unfamiliar with most of the songs, and have the Wacken show anyway

The only other Cooper live album I own is the Live Constrictor show from 86…and of course the live tracks that were tagged on the end of the last studio album…
I don’t own a lot of Coop…kinda patchy at best…
