Cooper, Alice - Below Your Means Lyrics

That Dennis Dunaway can play that bass

This is a great tune.

Early Coop's the best.

Loved all their exploratory stuff from the earliest days! Sad to think all went to hell with their final rise to fame ! Sheesh!

R.I.P. Glen Buxton

just before 3: 40 just awesome awesome guitars

Got the record 73. Love Alice Cooper 1969-73. PFY and EA are insanely underrated.

Trippy Song

I don't understand why most people credit Bob Ezrin with making Alice Cooper sound great. These guys are incredible in this song and the entire album. You can hear the basic threads of what's to come in right here!

Bob Ezrin did the next album, Frank Zappa and Ian Underwood worked on the previous one, idk who did this one hehe

@PappyWappy43 This was still under the Zappa Straight label I think, ^oo^

@PappyWappy43 This was produced by David Briggs who often worked with Neil Young.

@ChromeDestiny And Spirit. Who were brilliant.

i think this is Alice'Cooper's best!
Come with me and we'll play
You've got a lot, I'd like to stay
(So good, so far)
I see you playing right along
Sometimes it's better to belong
I'll sing, you feel my all night song
You know it's better to belong
Under the cover of a midnight scene
I got the sheets below your means

Below Your Means has some cool studio fade out effects !

So rock hard, you said you were looking well , I’ve got em

They’re rare especially unopened

I’ve got pretties for you on 5 different labels all on straight labels and one of them is unopened promotional label and I’ve got easy action unopened as well. Email me at. [email protected] if interested

One of my favorite AC albums

goddamn brilliant. Period.

this album was probably one of the least played in my collection.

The guitar work on this is INSANE! Who taught them those chords? The devil?

You are correct. Insane. Their individual contributions are what made them what they were. They were all great musicians and wanted/needed to be given their props. They had Alice as the front man, but they wanted to be noticed as well. What better way to do it than to show off their abilities. Starting at :43 through 1:00, they have a tapestry of notes that culminate into a beautiful minor chord. At 1:36 - 2:00, they do an amazing trade off. Alice had some good songs after he left the original guys, but the original guys were the ones with the charisma. I'm just finishing a book by Dennis Dunaway called "Snakes! Guillotines! Electric Chairs!: My Adventures in the Alice Cooper Group". I'm loving every minute of it. It's worth a look.

Damn! I'm listening to it again!

Headphones make all of the difference to hear their work spread out to reveal their individuality. Enjoy.

That's how I experienced it way back when, and did it right now in 2018. #brilliant

wonderful. this band was the original prog rock band

professorpsoop And punk and glam and shock

@Shane Smith And glitter, since nobody used the term glam way back then.

Thank you for providing this. Please correct the description: Michael Bruce sings the vocals on this, not Vince/(Alice). Michael has a great voice - what a talented guy - composer, lyricist, singer, multi-instrumentalist (guitarist, keyboards), and oh so handsome. Everyone in the original Alice Cooper group was excellent.

WeAreAllOne ExceptForThatGuy it's the Alice cooper band you pleb he's not saying it's Alice himself. Singing

I love the Alice Cooper band, but sex symbols they were not.

And how.a fan since 68!!

@Ronnie TalktoRussia Thinking someone is handsome does not equate to one being a sex symbol. Hyperbole much?

Guitarist Michael Bruce sings lead on 'Below Your Mean' and 'Beautiful Flyaway'

Michael sings lead on a lot more ACG songs than many people are aware of.

I knew about Beautiful Flyaway, but always thought this was Alice singing.

He also sings the first two verses on Sing Low, Sweet Cheerio.

I did not know that

Been one of my favs since I saw them at Grand Haven roller rink in 69.
