ALICE COOPER Released Breakthrough LP ‘LOVE IT TO DEATH’ Today 55 Years Ago

Significant longplayers from the past

9 March 2026

The now 78-year-old shock rocker ALICE COOPER, and his troops released
their 3rd and breakthrough LP LOVE IT TO DEATH on 9 March 1971, today
55 years ago.

It peaked at #35 in the US and #28 in the UK.

The record consolidated the band’s aggressive hard-rocking sound, instead
of the psychedelic and experimental rock style of their first two albums. It was
the first longplayer on which the members received individual credit for songs.

The album has come to be seen as a foundational influence on hard rock,
punk, and heavy metal; several tracks became live Alice Cooper standards
and got frequently covered.

7 April 1988 – ALICE COOPER On A Rope 37 Years Ago Today

7 April 2025

This day 37 years ago, horror rocker ALICE COOPER almost lost his life during
a concert in London. He accidentally hung himself in a rehearsal when a safety
rope snapped. He dangled for several seconds before a roadie saved him. Cooper
was attached to a harness that was attached to the rafters by a thick piano wire
that kept the noose above his neck.

School could have been out forever for Alice.
