Music: Alice Cooper’s I’m Eighteen pre-production

The Alice Cooper band release their Old School Box Set on November 19, crammed with demos, bootlegs and rarities. You can hear one of those, the 1971 pre-production recording of classic track I’m Eighteen, below.

Old School was initially set for release on October 29, but was rescheduled. It celebrates the history of the shock-rock icon’s band era, which ran from 1964 until 1974, packaged in a school desk design containing four CDs and a 60-page school yearbook.

Old School is a condensed edition of the sold-out super-deluxe box set released last year.
