The Beginning
zhlédnutí 113Před 8 lety
From a "just testing..." episode in 1998 - a dramatic recreation of how the idea of Lonesome Roadie Productions started - while working at a television station, watching a poorly produced show about playing blues slide guitar..... with Suzi and Moolie in the first segment, Jim and Paul in the "recreation"
🎶me and GB we ain't never gonna confess...🎵
They never mentioned why Alice was not there, touring perhaps.
Dammit, Glen. Who said you could go? RIP.
Just stumbled on this. Glen was responsible for some major Alice Cooper hits. RIP Mr.Buxton.
I love Alice Cooper but I have to agree with one of the people on air it was never the same after the billion-dollar baby bear nothing ever came even close in my opinion
Love GB one of my all-time great guitar heroes rest in peace 🎸😆♥️👏
Where is Alice?
Me and GB ain't ever gonna confess....
Once Alice Cooper became a person instead of a band, I lost all interest. They were a great band and my first concert. Schools out tour. Great show
Saw original band in 1971 on Killer tour as a young teenager, have never forgotten the impact it had on me. Always hoped for a reunion tour. Rip GB
Cool guys 😊
Cool
Where's Alice?
Glen taught me how to play a guitar. I mean, really play it. All through a little vinyl disc. I'm sure that my story is not unique, but Glen, his attitude, his playing, that all got absorbed into my own identity.
the Alice Cooper BAND defined an era, and wrote some of the best classic rock tracks ever!
Sorry, did this guy lose all his money - the house, and that room, seem to be a little run-down?
Sadly, it does appear that he lost all of his money. he probably got something in the form of royalties, but probably only a very small percentage of what he was owed. The song schools out was based on his riff. For as many times that we’ve heard this song he should’ve been a millionaire. Alice, the singer and the management really screwed the band over.
I remember reading where some fan had seen Glen in Phoenix at one point, pushing a shopping cart down the sidewalk full of beer bottle returnables. And then driving some old beat up AMC gremlin. It sounded like he was pretty destitute.
@@highdb1 And Alice does appear as a decent guy - shame that selfishness and ruthlessness got the better of him?
@@highdb1 What a shame - his contributions to the music cannot be quantified - his riffs and solos made the songs half the time.
Dennis Dunaway looks so you, and nice- this really breaks my heart.
Wonderful to see these guys- they are GREAT!!!!!!!!
R.I.P., Glen.
So where (+when) was this shown originally..?
You know you were the one that's Pubic Animal # 9 ❤
He lived life of a rock star for sure😅
The PRODUCERS POSSIBLY MIGHT GET MESSED UP IF THEY SAY "JUST TESTING AGAIN"
Alice Cooper never had the same appeal to me after the breakup of the Alice Cooper Group. It was never an Alice only thing for me ........I loved the whole band: Alice, Glen, Michael, Dennis and Neil. I Love Live From The Astroturf, and it is only lacking Glen to make completely special ! In 2007, my oldest son with autism was going to see Alice in a place that usually gets him backstage to meet the musicians. He told me he wanted to take one of my original ACG albums with him and I gave him Love It To Death with the explicit orders to ONLY let Alice sign it. I was at another concert in another town. He still doesn`t get why I was so pissed off when I got home and found only one signature on it. That of Keri Kelli. I should have never let him take it ! R.ock I.n P.aradise Glen. I Love what Alice says about Glen in the Live From The Astroturf DVD. I still spin all the albums with Glen on them !
Who's Kerri Kelli ? 😂
@@philipholmes5884 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keri_Kelli
The Earwigs tambourine lookes like a legendary shamanic relic from outer space! I've come to realise how much Glenns' riffing & soloing is all over the place in my memory of the 70-ties. The Alice Cooper Band had an anarchistic sound & attitude that was to be rediscoverd by the Sex Pistols. A poster of this band was not allowed in my parental house! Such a bunch of crazy talented motherf*ckers! R.I.P. mr. Glenn Buxton.
The original Alice Cooper Band were as influential as Sabbath. They belonged to that generation of bad ass gi tar players reinventing the catalogue of Rock, but stil keeping a fat Jazz swing in their playing. I recently learned the group once shared a house with Pink Floyd (Syd Barret era) and I found that to be a really spicy detail! We love the Alice Cooper Band 'till death takes us apart.
He pointed to Christ' picture in the beginning, I hope to see him in heaven
I know... that was really awesome 🙏🏼
This band was so great and could never be recaptured just as Elvis Costellos Attractions can't be touched.
WHEN THEY HAVE THESE TOP ONE HUNDRED GREATEST GUITAR PLAYERS HIS NAME SHOULD BE IN THE TOP 10 THANKS GLEN FOR THE MUSIC RIP!!
When I was a young man and I found out that that blonde feller with the cool SG on the back of Love It To Death was gone, that really blew me down. Then I found his sister and the other guys from the band on myspace, and they were all so friendly to me when I would interact with them. I got one of those GB memorial tie-dye shirts from Neal, and a CD copy of the Area 51 show from Mike. I'll always love that band to death.
Where's Vince?
"Me and GB we're never gonna con-fess....."
Glenn looked relatively well/good here, I was shocked of his passing shortly after at only age 49! ...,but all said, that was probably a long life especially for anyone who partied with Jim Morrison the way Glenn did 🙏, Thank You for this very valuable upload 🤘❤!!!
RIP Glen.
Wow.
remember when billion dollars babies sounded like such an absurd amount of money? now 31.7 trillion dollar debt?
💚💚💚💚
GB - CHAMPION AND LEGEND RIP
I actually have an original, Bootleg of Live at the Hollywood Bowl. I bought it at the Orange County Swapmeet (held, every weekend at a local Drive-in movie lot) in Santa Ana, California, back in 1974. I was 17 ( almost 18) at the time. Absolutely fabulous album, a two record set. Dennis is correct, Glen was definitely in the Zone for that concert... the whole band was. That was the infamous concert where they dropped thousands of the paper panties ( Schools Out promotion) from a helicopter.... and the crowd went wild! My goodness, the memories that just came back to me, I really miss those days...
COOP 🎉
Where was Alice? All the guys looked good they must have been about 50 then. I'm the AC generation, and GB made us kids really happy with his guitar licks. RIP GB.
Where’s Alice?
No Glen no Randy Rhoads good vocalist too
Dennis Dunaway along with Paul McCartney are the tastiest, most musical bassists ever.
I agree: his basslines were pure delicatessen!
Where's Vince? Thanks to Neil for resurrecting the Axxe. Great seeing Dennis Dunnaway and Michael Bruce and the rest of the band!
Do you have the footage from the 1st Glen Buxton Memorial performances? Bryan Erickson had the footage posted for a while until someone tried to get it taken down by CZcams. Maybe someone could post it again since the complaining party is now deceased.
This looks like my room when I was 16 years old. All my heroes, dream guitars, memorabilia of concerts I had gone to and goofy nonsense plastered all over the walls.
Where's Alice?
Nice guy,completely unaffected. Great guitar player too. You can tell he was close with his bandmates.
