Remastering helps
This remastered version of Cooper's Welcome To My Nightmare concert in London is both good news and bad. First the good. The picture quality is improved significantly from the original release. The bad is that the sound quality is still fair to poor. Most annoying is the original editing of the movie...I know it was the 70's, but any amatuer with a video camera and basic editing ability could make a better video. Watching Cooper stagger and prance through this classic concert is still fun. But too bad that the event wasn't documented more effectively.

I love Alice, but this vid is not worth it!!
The sound is just horrible. My friend Dave had this $20,000 Sony stereo system and I bought this Welcome to My Nightmare video to surprise him one day. Both of us are huge Alice Cooper fans. Dave likes the Greatest Hits CD the best, I love "Welcome to my Nightmare" and "Billion Dollar Babies" alot. So, we popped it in and woah!!! Even with his eq's, filters, and different components, it sounded mediocre, borderline crappy. On my stereo (Sony 500 Watt receiver), I dont have any filters or eq's, the audio sounded like crap! PLUS the video footage itself is horrible!!!!! Bad lighting, bad footage, cheap cameras, etc...I was so PIST bcz I paid like $15 and wasnt able to return it!!!!! SKIP THIS ONE ALTOGETHER UNLESS YOU WANT TO HEAR ALICE'S SONGS SOUNDING LIKE ITS COMING FROM AM RADIO. Like I said, I love Alice alot and especially the "Welcome to my Nightmare" album, but this video just upset me so much. Its just sitting there on my shelf and has been for about 2 years.

Alice Shows Why He Was Court Jester of Hell
Alice Cooper films a performance from the height of his popularity (sometime in the mid-seventies, roughly about the time of the _Welcome_to_My_Nightmare_ album).

The theatrical gimmickry that once trademarked his act (and made him a figure of legend) may go right over the heads of some, since on-stage shock-value requires more blood, explosions, skin, and nonsense above and beyond the call of duty to reach the numbed senses of a later generation; but none of this discredits Alice Cooper as Avatar of Stupidity and Court Jester of Hell, both metaphysical roles that some leather-clad nobody will consistently find impossible to wrest away from the rightful grasp of Msr. Furnier.
