Urban Legends of Rock & Roll by Dale Sherman
Author Dale Sherman must of gathered a lot of material from his previous book "The Illustrated Collector's Guide To Alice Cooper" to dedicate about 9 pages to Alice Cooper. Most of the artists are in shorter length. Dale Sherman shares with us 7 urban rock rumors of course they could of made a whole book of the Alice Cooper rumor mill. You have the famous "gross-out" contest with Frank Zappa. Alice stomped on baby chicks and killed puppy dogs on stage. Alice played Eddie Haskell on "Leave It To Beaver." An old lady died while sitting next to Alice on a plane. That last one was true but you have to read the book to find out what really happened on that flight. What was funny is the Marilyn Manson rumors which is an updated version of Alice rumors such as Manson took part in a "gross-out" contest with Ozzy Osbourne. Manson kills puppies on stage. Manson was the kid w/ glasses Paul Pfeiffer who played on "Wonder Years."
It's true history repeats itself.

Other artists in this book just to name a few are Elvis, Beatles, Rolling Stones, Kiss, Eric Clapton, and many more. This is a good coffee table book. Really nothing but gossip although very entertaining. It's like a car crash in that you want to look away but can't help to take a gander.
