Jani Lane - Serial killer

[Captain Howdy]

I first heard this a few years ago, and it has probably been discussed on here before but the search function throws up everything when you search for Jani or Serial Killer.

I had liked the song The one that got away on Alice Coopers Along came a spider album, and one day a few years ago I found out it was originally an unreleased Jani Lane song.

Being a huge Jani fan I have just been wishing that all the unreleased stuff I have heard over the years would get a remaster and a proper release as he was one hell of a song writer and singer. This though sounds fully produced.

Also found an old interview from 2010 where Jani discussed working with Alice on his (then) upcoming Welcome 2 my nightmare album, but sadly looking at the writing credits, they went in a different direction as there are no Jani writing credits. I wonder if there are any unreleased Alice Cooper songs from those writing sessions?

Here's hoping, he had so many excellent songs and I'm sure he had even more in the vault.  I would love for him to have a proper release as a tribute to his songwriting talents

The Jabberwocky songs have been knocking around for quite some time now, but I agree, being the kind of guy he was, I bet there is even more hidden away somewhere.

Never heard this one… very cool.

Better than stuff on his solo album that's for sure. Wish he'd released a cleaned up version of this song on that record.

Definitely sounds as though it it was from those same writing sessions.
