Deluxe double vinyl LP pressing. The cover of School's Out looks like a wooden school desk and opens to reveal the LP wrapped in a pair of panties. The band stopped including the underwear following a controversy as to whether or not they were flammable. Thankfully, the lacy unmentionables in the new Deluxe Edition are not a fire hazard. School's Out (Deluxe Edition) begins with a newly remastered version of the 1972 original, which peaked at #2 on the albums chart. Essential tracks like "Luney Tune" and "Alma Mater" are joined by "Gutter Cat vs. The Jets. " The latter is an homage to West Side Story, a significant influence on the band. The song incorporates lyrics from "Jet Song" from the 1957 musical, which led to an unlikely songwriting credit for Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim on an Alice Cooper track. The Deluxe Edition contains rarities like the single versions of "School's Out" and "Gutter Cat vs. The Jets. " Two previously unreleased tracks are also included, an alternate version of "Alma Mater" and an early demo for "Elected, " a song that would appear in 1973 on the band's first #1 album, Billion Dollar Babies. Alice Cooper's concert in Miami on May 27, 1972, adds even more unreleased music to the collection. The show was recorded a few weeks before the band entered the studio to record School's Out. The live performance features standout versions of "Halo Of Flies, " "School's Out, " and "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, " a song that gives Cooper a chance to show off his impressive harmonica skills.
