Sounds, November 18, 1972
A cover‑insert headline paired with a one‑page **Glasgow Green’s Playhouse** concert review, documenting one of the wildest UK stops of the Alice Cooper Group’s *School’s Out* tour. **Sounds** leaned fully into the band’s shock‑rock mythology with the provocative banner **“Return of the Bi‑Sexual Sex Object,”** framing Alice as a glam‑horror icon who thrived on outrage, theatrical danger, and gender‑bending spectacle.
The review captured a night of **knives, mock executions, and frenzied crowd energy**, with Glasgow responding in full chaotic devotion. Sounds portrayed Alice as both survivor and showman — a performer who could be “killed” onstage and resurrected moments later to even louder screams.
A snapshot of the moment when the UK fully embraced the madness, the makeup, and the menace of early‑’70s Alice Cooper.
NIXON OUT
elect Alice! The cry went up from a thousand teenage Scottish hearts as Alice Cooper, having survived a knife fight, and an execution came dancing back in white top hat and tails to sing his hit single to a packed and raving audience at Green's Playhouse, Glasgow. It was the final performance of "Killer" -again. Alice had all his licks down, even the snake charming number when the snake was on stage, licks was certainly the right word.
