Once upon a time, a garage band from Phoenix moved to LA and became Alice Cooper, with a little help from Frank Zappa, a dark alter ego and . . . West Side Story. This is the story of their album Easy Action.

Shoe Salesman's B-side, Return Of The Spiders, opens side two. Dunaway's unmistakable bubbling Hofner bass (on load from The Cowsills) locked into Neal Smith' rolling Wipeout drums (the classic Surfaris instrumental was the first thing Smith played with the band) on a brooding intro that bursts into Alice's opening 'Stop, look and listen' lyric which, according to Dunaway, was "aimed at those people who, when we did a gig, lined up at the exits to get out as fast as they could."
