Originating in Phoenix, Arizona/Phoenix in the late 1960s after he moved from Detroit, Alice Cooper was originally a band consisting of Furnier on vocals and harmonica, lead guitarist Glen Buxton, Michael Owen Bruce/Michael Bruce on rhythm guitar, Dennis Dunaway on bass guitar, and drummer Neal Smith (drummer)/Neal Smith. The original Alice Cooper band broke into the international music mainstream with the 1971 hit "I'm Eighteen" from the album Love It to Death, which was followed by the even bigger single "School's Out (song)/School's Out" in 1972. The band reached their commercial peak with the 1973 album Billion Dollar Babies.
