Alice Cooper dreamed of being a successful musician from the start of high school. In the school talent show, he created his first band with Glen Buxton and Dennis Dunaway.

Their success resulted in their decision to start a new band. The Alice Cooper band was formed by him with Michael Bruce, Dannis Dunaway, and Neal Smith in 1964. They produced multiple albums together. The commercial success of those albums was massive.
