“Me, Alice: The Autobiography of Alice Cooper By Alice Cooper As Told To Steven Gaines” Book Review

One of my favorite singer/songwriter/performers Alice Cooper released his first “autobiography” in 1976.

It is called “Me Alice: The Autobiography Of Alice Cooper By Alice Cooper As Told To Steven Gaines”.

I first heard about this book some time after I became a fan of Alice.

I never have been able to find a physical copy of it that is affordable.

Although recently, I did finally find it transcribed on a Russian website.  True story.

So, I could not resist reading it since I doubt I will ever be able to own a physical copy.

I have read many autobiographies (my favorite type of book), and I really enjoyed it.

Alice now says the book is a work of fiction (I saw a picture online which I have included below, as reference, with Alice’s autograph that he personalized to someone saying “Lies Lies Lies”) and maybe it is.  But that doesn’t mean it is not worth reading.  And who knows.  Maybe it’s all true. 

Regardless, if you are a fan like I am or just a fan of rock autobiographies, this is a must read if you can find it.

It only goes up to 1976 and he’s done A LOT since then, but again, it is a great read, it still covers a lot of ground (lots of wild rock and roll stories), and I cannot recommend it enough.

The photo of both the book cover and inscription I mentioned above I found on Google Images.  Hopefully I can someday own a physical copy and put my own pictures on here, but I just wanted to have them here as reference.
