The Alice Cooper theme song for the James Bond movie `The Man With The Golden Gun` did not make the movie but Alice used it anyway.
‘The Man With The Golden Gun’ was the second Bond movie to star Roger Moore. Cooper wrote and recorded the song but instead the producers used a different song by Lulu for the movie.The Cooper version was used on his 1973 album ‘Muscle of Love’.
At the time, Cooper album covers were as much a work of art as the music itself. ‘Schools Out’ was a school-desk, ‘Billion Dollar Babies’ had a giant bank-note inside. ‘Muscle of Love’ was packaged in a cardboard carton complete with a stain intentionally printed onto the cover.
The hit song from the album was ‘Teenage Lament ’74’ but Alice hasn’t performed anything from that album in years.
Alice Cooper will tour Australia in August.
