Elected Shot in London during the 2000 world tour, Brutally Live showcases Alice Cooper doing what he's been doing better than anyone else over the past 25 years: turning a rock concert into a campy theatrical extravaganza. That he's old enough to be almost anyone in the audience's (grand?)father is quite beside the point. For Alice remains one of the few who knows that rock & roll should be fun, even if that means severed heads, gushing blood, and murdered babies.

scott-sandy Most educated rock fans have heard of Alice Cooper. Alice, who is credited as the first performer to combine rock and theater together put out a string of highly successful albums in the early and mid 70's such as Billion Dollar Babies and Welcome To My Nightmare. However, many fans due to changes in radio mistakenly thought Alice's better days passed him by the early 80's. This has always been untrue. While Alice's 80's work could be shaky at times, he still put out a few compelling albums like Dada and Raise Your Fist and Yell. In 1989, he began a major comeback with the hit album "Trash." However, it was in the 90's when Alice once again began making albums that were every bit as good as his classic 70's material. 1994's The Last Temptation was a masterpiece. The following video comes from his 2000 Brutally Live tour which was a highly theatrical tour based off of his critically acclaimed Brutal Planet album (if you don't own this, shame). This video contains all of Alice's trademark theatrics and combines the classic material, along with a few surprises like "Caught In A Dream" but also features songs off of his Brutal Planet album which show Alice still can get it done in the studio and onstage. Veteran rockers like Ozzy, Aerosmith, and Metallica could learn a lesson from Alice who still appears at the top of his game despite being in his 50's. If you have a chance to see this icon live, take advantage while you still can and buy some of his newer albums they are quite listenable.
bdollarb Comes across far better on DVD than in the flesh. This gig stank big time. Trust me, I was actually there. It was so quiet that it was unbelievable!! I could hold normal level conversations to the mate stood next to me. Presumably this was to control the sound for the disc's surround sound recording??? But it soon backfired when the drummer got badly insulted during his pretentious over-long solo. Hence the change of title from "Live From The Brutal Planet" to "Brutally Live." Sad that the man's previous London gig at the Astoria (which was nothing less than amazing) wasn't filmed instead. Two words of advice - rock should be loud, and seated venues suck to the max. Additional - so do boring drum solos. Why even release this when The Nightmare Returns or Strange Case are still unavailable on DVD? Bah!! One for die-hards only.A big Alice fan.
Robin-58 At the time of writing, this is the most recent of Alice Cooper's concerts to be released on video. In my view, it is the best to date, surpassing "Welcome to my Nightmare" "Trashes the World" and even "The Nightmare Returns". In this outing which was taped in London in 2000, Alice is at his best. Starting with a prologue, leading in to Alice's entrance to the guitar riff from "Brutal Planet", leading on to a perfectly balanced mix of the classics and the "Brutal Planet" material, this is a must have for any Alice fan, and a great starting point for someone wanting to see the grand master of shock rock while listening to a selection of his greatest hits. High points in the concert are (as usual) "The Ballad of Dwight Frye" performed from a strait jacket, the beheading, "Feed My Frankenstein" and Alice's "resurrection" plus great performances of "Wicked young man" "School's Out" and "Take it Like a Woman". There are no low points. As an interesting piece of trivia, readers may want to note that the "Go to Hell" dominatrix and the asylum nurse are both played by Alice's daughter, Calico Cooper.
twalchusky Gotta love Alice Cooper. Hes one of the great performers that continue a "metal" legacy. When you see his concert you definitley get your dollars worth. But its hard to beleive, 30 yrs later, his equal counterpart, Ozzy Osbourne, still holds more popularity then Alice. Both are great musicians, both have done alot for the music business, but Ozzy is credited as being the father of heavy metal. Maybe its a british invasion thing, i don't know. But one things for sure, Ozzy and Alice should go on tour together. That would be a metal fans dream come true. As far as this dvd is concerned. GET IT GET IT GET IT. Especially if you have never seen him in concert before. A must have for anyone who likes to be entertained for 90 minutes.
