With legendary shock-rocker Alice Cooper releasing his 2017 studio album, Paranormal, this album was his best chart-performing album he released in decades. He also took his live act all over the world with “the best band he has ever had.”
Cooper and his band spent a year on the road, with the tour ending in Paris on December 7, 2017 at the renowned Olympia, which opened in 1888 and has seen multiple stage presentations in entertainment and pop culture in the last 130 years. These include Edith Piaf, Johnny Hallyday, The Beatles, and of course, Alice Cooper.
Paranormal is Cooper’s first studio album in six years, and features collaborations with such iconic musicians including ZZ Top’s Billy Gibbons, U2’s Larry Mullen Jr., and Deep Purple’s Roger Glover, among others.
