Music News Digest: Bob Ezrin & Dennis Dunaway Remember The Colourful Rise of the Alice Cooper Group

Also this week: Big Valley Jamboree brings major country stars to Alberta, Bonsound signs Spaghatt and more..

Organized by concert promoter Lou Molinaro, The Ballad of Dwight Fry: The Horror-ific Truth Behind The Alice Cooper Group was performed twice last week in Ontario, at the Biltmore Theatre in Oshawa and Bridgeworks in Hamilton.

It featured a look back at The Alice Cooper Group through the eyes of superstar Toronto rock producer Bob Ezrin (Pink Floyd, Lou Reed, Kiss) and original bassist Dennis Dunaway. For almost two hours, armed only with minimal but well-chosen projected photos, the two swapped stories and observations about the seminal work they did together in the 1970s on the albums by that band that helped change the sound and look of rock in that decade.
