Product Description

CD Description

Umpteenth studio album from ageing shock rocker follows 2003's 'The Eyes Of Alice Cooper'. Like that album, this represents a back to basics approach for Cooper, who claims he waseager to capture the raw, spontaneous feel of the early Stones and Yardbirds releases. Recorded in just 13 days with producers Steve Lindsey (Leonard Cohen, Elton John) and Rick Boston (Rickie Lee Jones), the album is released on cult label Spitfire, specializing in new albums by old rockers.

5.0 out of 5 stars His Best album since "From The Inside" 10 Stars **********, 8 Jul 2005
By Steve (Indiana) - See all my reviews
Yes Alice is back to being Alice, I don't get where some fans think Alice is all about anger and gloom and doom, 27 some albums and only 1 being about anger Brutal Planet, and Dragontown maybe half about anger... ...
.................................
What we have with Dirty Diamonds is a return to Alice of the 70s this is the best by far record Alice has done since "From The Inside" Folks Dirty Diamonds is no Eyes, This album is AWESOME I got lucky and got an advance promo 2 weeks before the UK release and I have listened to it 70+ times and it still holds my interest, not one bad song on the whole CD, the exception is the bonus track "Stand" it is not a bad song but doesn't fit the CDs sound but it is a bonus track after all and was recorded and released over a year ago. ...Like I said "Dirty Diamonds" is the best thing Alice has done since the "From The Inside" Album, I highly recomend this album....ALICE IS BACK AND BETER THAN EVER WITH THE WONDERFULLY AWESOME "DIRTY DIAMONDS" GET YOURS TODAY.

5.0 out of 5 stars Alice has finally done it again, and it only took 27 years., 14 Jun 2005
Yes folks, this is it, the album we have all waiting for. Over the last three decades Alice's recording career has been spotty to say the least. lots of hit and misses. The trouble seemed to be that although generally most of his post 70's records had 3 or 4 great songs they were also plagued with lots of filler (Trash & Raise your fist and yell being the 2 possible debatable exceptions).Enter 2005 and Alice seems more invigorated than ever before, it's as if somebody time travelled back to 1972 and snatched the Alice of old. Tracks like sunset babies and the Saga of Jesse Jane would not seem out of place in School's out or Billion Dollar Babies, the title track alone is reminisent of muscle of love era Cooper with the frenetic energy of early stooges and hey a little bit of Sabbath paranoid esque riffing never hurt anybody either. Alice has really outdone himself on this album sounding like his fomer self and not just a parody of his former self. Good on ya Coop Grow old disgracefully. oooohhh I'm so excited my mascara's running.

5.0 out of 5 stars Still got it..., 25 Feb 2006
By A Customer
Alice's albums had gotten a bit hit and miss in recent years. We had Alice does Manson on Brutal Planet, and Alice goes back to basics on The Eyes of Alice Cooper. This is Alice gets it right in fine style. There's nine really solid tracks on this and in and amongst those are a few Cooper classics in the shape of You Make Me Wanna, Sunset Babies and the title track. If you'd grown dissilusioned with Vince this one may well restore your faith. He's still the business live too.
