one of the cool things about albums back then that you cant do with cs covers........ the schools out album was like and old time school desk you could up up and see the contents.... lol how cool i remember thinking the first time i get it out of the cellophane.
I played this song over and over wearing my cap and robe on my own graduation day. Actually a sad melancholy song for the underrated Alice cooper group
@PhoenixStar100 I just listen to him on the radio 5 mins ago and he said that he did't go to camelback. He just used the name. He went to Cortez High School. And that can from alice himself. Great song and at least your high school is in a Alice Cooper song. And thats pretty cool itself.
NEVER sell this album! You can always get the MP3s or an extra 30 bucks on eBay, but no studio will ever again sponser elaborate record editions like this.
My guess is that it isn't the actual clear recording of the song. If the song were directly from the cd of "School's Out", it would be taken off. Its pretty ridiculous.
Love this song. Olnly because it's friggin' awesome, and he talks about my highschool I graduated from. CAMELBACK! The drummer graduated from there too! CAMELBACK My high school
DEFINITELY an original copy, cuz it has the old Warner Bros. green label, like mine did, wish i still had it, played the hell outta this album, thx for sharing.
blue turk was another fave off this 72 chestnut.and gutter cat vs the jets a west side story parody very clever.i dont think this album was weak, i reckon it,s quality songwise and bob ezrin produced great for the time.the band were very good musicians too!!
Mate you've got no idea, School's Out was and still is one of the groups finest albums. There's not much wrong with Luney Tune, Blue Turk, My Stars and Public Animal #9
I wish that i could say the same. I can't remember what happened to my billion dollar bill.you can get a turn table that connect's to your computer and download your vinyl.
@thegirl44 CDs may have better sonic quality at times but you can't beat albums for the packaging and art. School's Out and Billion Dollar Babies are examples of that.
Nice to hear that vinyl has made a bit of a comeback.
I have the same organ performance of Bach's Concerto in F Minor on LP and CD and I prefer the LP version because it hasn't been digitally "cleaned up". You can hear the bellows of the organ filling and exhausting, you can hear the click of the knob to change the tone being depressed, you can her the faint whoosh and tap of the pianist working the foot pedals. These nuances and, dare I say, elements of making music are lost on the digital age.
@thegirl44 Another thing to note against CDs is a metronome sound that you can hear on some songs of artists most notably in the percussion/drumming. Not all cds and songs but, when you do hear them, it is annoying and distracting being in the background like dripping water.
Seal's last cd was guilty of that with a song or two as was King's X on their last release.
It's cus it was such an anthem for kids, pretty much everyone loves that song. Since that song was so famous people bought the single more than the album. The album is very bluesy to me, and it's Glen's favorite with his favorite guitar solo on "Blue Turk." R.I.P. Glen the guitar god!
@LuneyTune72 Not to mention adding in that great Jet song from "West Side Story". Fits in perfectly with the whole album. Amazing how many people are amazed when you mention that Alice took on Broadway :)
If you have one of those Vinyl-to-MP3 converters, could you upload those?

Except for the title track, School's Out was a weak album. Thank goodness they bounced back with a much stronger Billion Dollar Babies album.

It's cus it was such an anthem for kids, pretty much everyone loves that song. Since that song was so famous people bought the single more than the album. The album is very bluesy to me, and it's Glen's favorite with his favorite guitar solo on "Blue Turk." R.I.P. Glen the guitar god!
