By today’s standards, this is really ridiculous but Alice Cooper was banned in several countries in the 1970s. Yes, he was not allowed to perform in countries like the UK, Germany, and Australia. Check out the vintage news articles below:
The Sydney Herald – 1975
The Miami News – 1977
The Fort Lauderdale News- Sun Sentinel – 1980

The Democrat and Chronicle – Rochester, NY – 1975
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF
I grew up in a household full of rock music, studied journalism in college, and then became a scientist.Although my science career has served me well, music has always played a major role in my life. I grew up reading "Creem" magazine; I play several musical instruments as a "hobby";and it seems a camera has always been in my hand. Now, I am combining what I love the most--music and photography--serving as editor of Rock At Night. I travel between the US and UK seeking my dream! My motto: life is short...no regrets. Chyrisse
