That's right: Alice Cooper played Eddie Haskell until he was killed in Vietnam.

Another great rock myth: that Elvis is dead. We all know he's living on a tropical island, taking care of a vegetative JFK until the time is right for his comeback. There's also the myth, started by the movie "American Hot Wax," that Chuck Berry would ever play a show for free. And the myth that Van Halen was better with Sammy Hagar. And the myth that Yes is worth listening to.

Have I offended everyone yet? Good!

"...And the myth that Yes is worth listening to..."

"Close to the Edge" is still one of my all-time favorite albums. Pick some dreary, cloudy, lazy afternoon......turn off the lights, lay back on your sofa, and give that album a listen from start to finish. You'll "get it" then.

Ya gotta like Chuck's style. One man, one Cadillac, one check.

The man defines "low overhead".
