Alice Cooper recently praised his backing group, saying it was the best band he has ever worked with.

Cooper complimented his band while speaking to New Zealand radio station Bayrock about his all-new show, “Ol’ Black Eyes is Back.”

“First of all, it’s a full theatrical show,” Cooper said. “I can only say that there’s a lot of surprises in the show, theatrically. And the music is gonna be A1+. It’s the best band I’ve ever worked with.”

“She’s a force of nature — she really is — and one of the nicest ladies I’ve ever met in my life,” he said about guitarist Nita Strauss specifically. “[She] cannot wait to get on stage. Everybody in the band is like that, though; everybody in the band are best friends.”
