Welcome to My Nightmare by Alice Cooper, released in 1975, is Alice Cooper's first solo album (all previous Alice Cooper releases were band efforts). The cover artwork was created by Drew Struzan for Pacific Eye & Ear. Rolling Stone would later rank it as one of the "Top 100 Album Covers Of All Time". Welcome to My Nightmare is a concept album. The songs, heard in sequence, form a journey through the nightmares of a child named Steven. Famed film actor of the Horror genre Vincent Price provided the introductory monologue in the song "The Black Widow". This is the audiophile MFSL, half-speed mastered version. I have included full scans.
