I picked this 3 track promo / single up dirt cheap from Kelly's Records in Cardiff (it's a wonder the fucking thing doesn't skip - you're lucky to get a playable record from that place, let me tell you!) as I'm a sucker for classic Alice Cooper and as you all know everything sounds better on vinyl. Well, most things. This sneaky 12" spins at 45 so "Poison" and "Trash" fly by on side A; the classic single and album title track both sounding punchy and almost modern (if it wasn't for that late 80s / early 90s snare sound!), whilst side B's live rendition of "The Ballad of Dwight Fry" isn't even really worth mentioning.
Conclusion? Cheap as chips, and not really worth owning if you have the song in any other format, but a good purchase all the while!
