True ALICE fans know. This feels like OLD ALICE, man!! Take my word for it. I've been a fan since 1973. Or, don't take my word. Sample it for yourself. ALICE COOPER hasn't made music this good since his days with the ALICE COOPER BAND. At the start of the new millennium(how I hate that term), ALICE COOPER turned out 2 hot and wicked metal albums!! BRUTAL PLANET and DRAGONTOWN. Then he goes way back and makes THE EYES OF ALICE COOPER. What a great album!! COOPER continues to discover his roots one more time with DIRTY DIAMONDS. I swear it's like he's been REBORN with these records. Even though these songs are completely new, I swear I hear strains from the KILLER and the LOVE IT TO DEATH lp's. The song YOU MAKE ME WANNA feels like YEAH, YEAH, YEAH from KILLER, for sure. And listen to THE BALLAD OF JESSE JANE(hilarious). It's the DWIGHT FRY melody!! Wow!! One of the best new songs is the blues ballad SIX HOURS. Incredible!! His voice just gets better with age. Read the rave reviews and sample the album. Make sure you sample all the albums I mention in this review. Those of you, like me, who have been away from The COOP for a while, here's your chance to discover his music again. You won't be sorry. ALICE IS GREAT AGAIN!!

WELCOME BACK, COOP!!
