I believe that's Dick Wagner in the right channel.

Very sad day indeed. Being a huge Alice Cooper fan since early 70's I followed Dick Wagner and listened to all of his playing even the low point albums. His lyrics are among the best. His work on the last Alice album Welcome 2 My Nightmare holds up to the the earlier work. I was lucky enough to score a CD lyric sheet with his and Alice autograph that holds more meaning now. His Lou Reed work Berlin and Rock and Roll Animal speak for the self. He was one of the great rock guitarists that more need to know about and appreciate.

RIP Dick Wagner
