This record shows how extraordinarily creative the original band was when left on their own to create a body of work (ie no producer to help them craft their songs). You can hear that these pieces were composed from many hours of jamming together, working out ideas together... creating a musical style that was extremely strong, unique, and uncompromising. I wish they'd have recorded another record during this period of Pretties & Easy Action. "Fields of Regret" is one of the heaviest songs you'll ever hear from Alice Cooper, regardless of what era you're into.
