Lace and Whiskey is an album by Alice Cooper, released in May 1977. After many years of portraying the same dark and sinister persona, Alice decided to try something new. The album showcases Cooper's love for the musicians that recorded music in this vein, "Frank Sinatra" even went on to sing the smash hit "You And Me", a compliment that Alice still appreciates.
While many consider this and Cooper's previous album, "Alice Cooper Goes To Hell", to be the beginning of downhill for Alice's career, it undoubtedly features some of the musicians best written lyrics. "Lace And Whiskey" would be the last of the drunken Alice studio albums, though the live recording "The Alice Cooper Show" showcased the ill performer at his alcoholic peak.
