Happy 30th Anniversary to the Alice Cooper album Constrictor. The album was Cooper's comeback album after a three year layoff due to his addictions to alcohol and his marriage nearly falling apart. Though this was Cooper's first album since 1983's Dada, it's the first in nearly a decade that sounded like an Alice Cooper album with his albums between 1978-1983 being experimental. The album introduced Cooper to a newer generation and began his heavy metal period. This was also the first album to feature the awesome Rambo-like guitarist Kane Roberts and Kip Winger. The songs "Teenage Frankenstein" and "He's Back (The Man Behind The Mask)" appeared in the movie Friday The 13th Part VI: Jason Lives while "The Great American Success Story" was rumored to be for the Rodney Dangerfield movie Back To School.

Happy 25th anniversary to the Ozzy Osbourne album No More Tears. The album was Osbourne's sixth studio album and the last to feature drummer Randy Castillo and bassist Bob Daisley. Daisley had played bass up to that point on all but The Ultimate Sin album while co-writing most of the songs in the first five albums. Lemmy of Motorhead co-wrote three songs on the album.



Guns N' Roses - The Garden

Had to put this one up giving Alice does guest vocals.
