All Here January 19, 2010 H. Marshall (Fayetteville, AR USA) Not much I can say about this that isn't already said. Overall, if you're a die-hard Alice fan, this book is a must have. THE reference of Alices' recordings.
Alice Cooper Rocks! January 9, 2010 Dave M. Steward (FORT MADISON, IA, US) We have only looked at a few pages, but is a very informative book. I will definitely add this to my collection after reading it. The Illustrated Collector's Guide to Alice Cooper
No question, the best book ever on Alice Cooper Collectibles ever! August 9, 2009 PERRY D COX (Scottsdale, AZ USA) As author and co-author of the Beatles collector book series for nearly 28 years, I know how much time and effort goes into compiling and assembling a book of high quality like this. Mr. Sherman's first offering was outstanding on it's own right, but in this 2nd edition "10th Anniversary" offering he raises the bar even higher. This book details and lists just about every prominent record, book, and video release ever issued by our hero (and his band(s)) for the last 40+ years. As well, he covers many very obscure issues many of you probably didn't know existed. It's a huge bonus that AC's TV appearances are included here as well making this a pretty complete and comprehensive media reference. This book is a bargain at twice the price. If you're an Alice Cooper fan or you are into collecting him at all, you absolutely have to have this book. Great work Dale! This was clearly a 'labor of love" for you and it shows.
Collector's Guide To Alice Cooper July 6, 2009 Salvatore Gandolfo 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Impressive! June 21, 2002 Psychedelic Cowboy (Burbank, CA United States) 15 out of 15 found this review helpful
I was very impressed with the intensity of the research and detail of this book. The author takes you chronologically through Alice's career, focussing on recordings, tours, film and television and books. He goes bit by bit, album by album, single by single, and fills each entry with loads of detail. Minutiae including who played what, on which song, how the song did on the charts, variation in design, dates, formats, catalogue numbers, trivia-pretty much everything I wanted to know about Alice's output from 1964 to 1998. The book is split into five periods: 1964-74, 1975-79, 1980-82, 1984-1990, and 1991-1998. It is chock full of photos (many of which I had never seen before) both in black and white and in color and information (much of which I didn't know). It is a fascinating read for the Alice Cooper fan, and written so it can be read like a book (I read it cover to cover the first day I got it), or used as a reference guide (I have referred to it many times since). I can't recommend it enough for anyone who has questions about Alice or his music. This book answers it all.
