Launch Radio Networks reports: Alice Cooper has been named the top classic rock golfer in a new survey in Golf Digest. The magazine ranked the musicians who are the best players, and Cooper came in at No. 11 on the list, in a tie with British singer-songwriter Lloyd Cole. YES drummer Alan White scored a No. 14 placement, while the Top 40 also included DOORS guitarist Robby Krieger, MOODY BLUES bassist John Lodge, and former EAGLES guitarist Don Felder. Jazz saxophonist Kenny G is No. 1 on the 'Top 100 In Music' list.
Cooper told Launch that golf is so popular among his peers because it helps musicians get going while on the road. 'It gets you out of the hotel rooms when you're on long tours,' he said. 'It's something to look forward to. You do the show. The next morning, what are you gonna do? Sit in the hotel room all day? No, you get to go out and hit the golf ball around. But it's certainly nothing that I would... I would never give up rock-and-roll for golf.'
Also on the Golf Digest 'Top 100 In Music' list, which hits newsstands on Tuesday (November 7), are these folks, who apparently need to improve their game รข€" ex-PINK FLOYD singer-bassist Roger Waters, EAGLES singer-guitarist Glenn Frey, Stephen Stills, Bob Dylan, Steve Miller, Eddie Van Halen, Neil Young, TUBES leader Fee Waybill, Meat Loaf, Eddie Money, and singer-guitarist Robin Zander from CHEAP TRICK, among others. AEROSMITH frontman Steven Tyler had a very low placement, but he's listed as being new to the game.
