The music video below features Vincent Price and Alice Cooper, performing “The Black Widow” from Cooper’s classic album Welcome to My Nightmare. The performance is from a TV Special called “Alice Cooper — The Nightmare” that aired on 25 April 1975 and later released to home video — Alice looking much less scary than he does these days. Vincent Price’s introductory monologue is an extended version of that on the album (one of my all-time favourites), but notice the authority with which he delivers every syllable. What a voice!
Worthy of note is the fact that the TV Special (produced by David Winter) was nominated for a Grammy but lost out to Duran Duran.
