The Best of Alice Cooper
The Best of Alice Cooper is an EP released in 1980 on Warner Bros. Records, gathering together material from the singer's catalogue under a straightforward compilation title.
It arrived in the same year as Flush the Fashion, part of a run of studio albums that had begun with Welcome to My Nightmare in 1975 and continued through Alice Cooper Goes to Hell, Lace and Whiskey and From the Inside. For anyone dipping into the Cooper story at the turn of the decade, it marks a point between the theatrical solo records of the late 1970s and the early 1980s releases that followed, Special Forces and Zipper Catches Skin.
