Mae West: Alice Cooper

Various publications have jumped on the memoir of a former co-star of MAE WEST, namely Alice Cooper [born Vince Furnier nearly 60 years ago]. The title is Alice Cooper, Golf Monster; the byline reads 'by Alice Cooper with Keith and Kent Zimmerman" [Crown Publishers].
• • The rock musician's addictive nature, fortunately, did not get him hooked on drugs. He became an alcoholic instead. Battling the booze, despite stints in rehab, led him to a discovery: substitute a harmful habit with a harmless hobby: golf. The book details his mania with the links.
• • To stave off boredom in the reader, however, the usual bold-faced names buzz around the text not unlike mosquitoes on an 18-hole green. Before he embraced a healthier lifestyle, the rocker used to hang out with John Lennon and Harry Nilsson, drinking himself under the freeway and waking up in the morning vomiting blood. Because of golf, he now rubs elbows with presidents, Hollywood icons, and John Daly.
• • The show-off side of the 146-lb Cooper spews out the names of his eclectic group of celebrity chums. He has socialized with the likes of Groucho Marx, Salvador Dali, and Fred Astaire, supposedly. He claims he was great buddies with late British comic actor Peter Sellers. And he spurned the amorous advances of a fresh Raquel Welch and a well-seasoned Mae West.
