ALICE COOPER To Join VIRGIN RADIO

June 22, 2005

BBC News is reporting that Alice Cooper is joining Virgin Radio to host a weeknight evening show.

Cooper will work on Virgin Radio Classic Rock, a digital station launched at the end of last year.

It features music from bands such as AEROSMITH, JIMI HENDRIX and the ROLLING STONES.

Cooper — real name Vincent Furnier — has been a star since the 1970s with hits including "School's Out" and "No More Mr. Nice Guy".

ALICE COOPER's new album, "Dirty Diamonds", is scheduled for release in the U.S. on August 2 (July 4 in Europe) via New West Records.

"Dirty Diamonds", which is said to be a continuation of the more organic approach found on Cooper's last effort, "The Eyes of Alice Cooper", was overseen by Steve Lindsey, who co-produced Cooper's 2004 duet with rapper XZIBIT, "Stand" (off the official Olympics Games album, "Unity") and has worked with Elton John, Luther Vandross and Leonard Cohen.
