In 1997, Alice Cooper came back from semi-retirement, the biggest stage of her career, and made a huge comeback to this day. A valuable professional shot work that can be called a sequel/video version of the official live album “A FISTFUL OF ALICE” is now available. [The Emperor who has come back from the biggest blank in his career] This work was filmed at the Budapest performance on June 27, 1997. This is the multi-camera pro shot. Alice at that time was not talked about very much, and I think there are some people who don't know much about her. That's not surprising; in fact, it wasn't active. This is a good opportunity to find out more about it. Let's take a slightly broader look back at the schedule at that time. 1992-1993 (no activity) "THE LAST TEMPTATION" released on July 12, 1994 September 2-9, 1995: South America (4 performances) June 2-August 17, 1996: North America #1 (55 performances) ← *Official, December 28-31: North America #2 (3 performances) 1997, June 20-July 24: Europe (25 performances) ←★Here★《July "A FISTFUL OF ALICE" released on the 29th] July 30th - August 31st: North America #3 (24 performances) September 5th - 11th: Australia (5 performances) December 29th - 31st : North America #4 (3 performances) This is Alice from 1992 to 1997. In 1991, they released ``HEY STOOPID'' and toured normally, but they stopped their activities due to the economic downturn caused by the Gulf War. Three years later, “THE LAST TEMPTATION” was released, but no tour took place, and more than a year later, there were only four performances in South America. Although he had not announced his retirement, he was virtually retired. Alice was revived in 1996. With the production of ``A FISTFUL OF ALICE,'' they began their first large-scale world tour in five years. This is the biggest blank for Alice. In fact, his stage career can be roughly divided into three periods separated by large gaps: ``1969-1982'', ``1986-1991'', and ``1996-present'', and this work is the first of those three periods. corresponds to Although it was not widely publicized, it was the moment when he returned from the brink of retirement. [Professional shot that gives a strange feeling because it is Eastern Europe in the 1990s] The Budapest performance of this work is the first European performance of Resurrection Alice. This was the 7th concert of the "Europe" leg. What recorded such a show was a very unique masterpiece pro shot. The reason for this lies in the ``90s + Eastern Europe.'' Hungary is an advanced rock country in Eastern Europe, and domestic bands have been active since the 1970s. As a result, in the 1990s, the image and sound quality was approaching that of Western Europe/North America, but the staff's taste remained unique. Don't get me wrong here. It's not the "hobby taste of Eastern Europe". It's a professional shot full of fun that makes you wonder, ``Is this how you take rock music?'' ``How do you do this?'' Specifically, close-up camera work. If I were to write something that would be difficult to convey in words, I would ``fix the person in the center of the screen and move around it.'' After all, you don't understand. For an analogy, think of the bullet dodging scene in the movie The Matrix. Of course, it doesn't turn around as flashy, and people don't stop moving. However, while Alice and Lev Beach are fixed close up in the center of the screen, only the background moves and rotates, creating a mysterious feeling. It's even more surprising considering the timing. This show took place in 1997, two years earlier than the movie "The Matrix." What's more, unlike Hollywood movies where they can use as much compositing and CG as they like, this was a live concert shot, and from the distance shot, no special equipment was attached to Alice or the members. How on earth was it filmed? Even 23 years later, it's an outstanding video work that still retains its unique character. [A rare set that is significantly different from "A FISTFUL OF ALICE"] The nightmare Alice Shaw is depicted with such a mysterious feeling. As mentioned above, the time is close to the live album "A FISTFUL OF ALICE", and the members are the same. However, the sets are quite different. Let's organize it here by comparing it with the official version. 70's Classics (9 songs)・Eighteen: Ballad Of Dwight Fry (★)・Killer: Be My Lover (★) / Halo Of Flies (★)・School's Out: Gutter Cat Vs. The Jets (★) / School's Out・Billion Dollar Babies: No More Mr. Nice Guy/Elected・Welcome to the Nightmare: Only Women Bleed・Go To Hell (★) Epic Era (5 songs)・Trash: Poison・Hey Stupid :Feed My Frankenstein・The Last Temptation: Lost In America/Cleansed By Fire (★)/Nothing's Free (★) *Note: Songs marked with "★" cannot be heard on the official live album "A FISTFUL OF ALICE". ...and it looks like this. “A FISTFUL OF ALICE” had different songs in each country’s edition, but even if you collect them all, there are 7 songs that overlap with this work. This is only half of the 14 songs. The classics that can only be seen in videos are delicious, such as "Gutter Cat Vs. The Jets" in which gangs fight each other, and "Ballad Of Dwight Fry" in which a man with make-up painted on his face sings passionately, but the most rare one is "Cleansed". By Fire" and "Nothing's Free." As mentioned above, there was no tour accompanying “THE LAST TEMPTATION”, and both songs were only played in the late 1990s. Since you can see it in multi-camera professional shots, it is a must-have for collectors. Alice Cooper is the king who has recovered from the biggest gap in her career and returned to the scene. This is a video work that depicts the stage that is a sequel to "A FISTFUL OF ALICE", which signaled a comeback, using unique Hungarian professional shots. For the past 23 years, a non-stop rapid advance has begun. This work is a piece that allows you to witness a moment of restart that has been overlooked until now.
