Album Review
With Billion Dollar Babies, Alice Cooper refined the raw grit of their earlier work in favor of a slightly more polished sound (courtesy of super-producer Bob Ezrin), resulting in a mega-hit album that reached the top of the U.S. album charts. Song for song, Billion Dollar Babies is probably the original Alice Cooper group's finest and strongest. Such tracks as "Hello Hooray," the lethal stomp of the title track, the defiant "Elected" (a rewrite of an earlier song, "Reflected"), and the poison-laced pop candy of "No More Mr. Nice Guy" remain among Cooper's greatest achievements. Also included are a pair of perennial concert standards — the disturbing necrophilia ditty "I Love the Dead" and the chilling macabre of "Sick Things" — as well as such strong, lesser-known selections as "Raped and Freezin'," "Unfinished Sweet," and perhaps Cooper's most overlooked gem, "Generation Landslide." Nothing seemed like it could stop this great hard rock band from overtaking the universe, but tensions between the members behind the scenes would force the stellar original AC band to split up after just one more album. Not only is Billion Dollar Babies one of Cooper's very best; it remains one of rock's all-time, quintessential classics.
Customer Reviews
A Rock Villan Established
This album is superb. Great crafted songs with terrific production. Everyone should own this. What are you waiting for?
Lock up your daughters....
Grotesque, glammy and containing songs filled with outrageous material that will have your granny choking on her false teeth, Alice delivers his most classic album to date. From the dubiously titled "Raped and Freezin' to the tasteless 'I Love the Dead', the godfather of shock-rock's finest hour still sounds original and fresh. Every rock fan needs this in their life, so buy it!
Apt Title
This album was when the original band were at the zenith of their career. You can't fault the songs as being brill, but not my favourite AC album, nevertheless great songs namely Hello Hooray, Raped and Freezin, the single Elected the title track and a song about a visit to the dentist, No more Mr Nice Guy and i think the best song on the album Generation Landslide, and only Alice could get away with writing a song about necrophilia.
