Alice Cooper

Alice Cooper's live performance at the Midsummer Rock Festival in 1970 came on the heels of the band's landmark album, "Easy Action," released in 1970. This album marked a pivotal moment in Cooper's journey, showcasing their evolving sound and theatrical flair. Just a few months before this festival, Alice Cooper was already making waves with their provocative style and stage presence, which would set the tone for future performances. Fun fact: this live recording captures the band at a time when they were still solidifying their identity in rock, blending hard rock with horror motifs. In fact, videos from this era often highlight the innovative arrangements and daring themes that would later become staples of their shows. The electrifying energy from the live crowd at Midsummer Rock speaks volumes about Alice Cooper's growing legend in the early 70s.
