The Very Best of Radio Waves 1975–1979 captures Alice Cooper at the height of his seventies reign, when outrageous theatre, hard-edged rock ’n’ roll and a run of classic albums had established him as one of the era’s most iconic performers. Across these three legendary live-to-air broadcasts, Cooper and his band deliver the drama, energy and unmistakable attitude that made his concerts such a spectacle, combining later-period material with a selection of enduring early-seventies favourites. Tracks such as School’s Out, Billion Dollar Babies, Under My Wheels and No More Mr. Nice Guy remain as potent in the live setting as ever, while the period performances offer a vivid snapshot of Alice Cooper in his element—bold, theatrical, unpredictable and utterly committed to entertaining the crowd. Together, these recordings form an exhilarating journey through one of rock’s most colourful and influential chapters.
