Billion Dollar Babies is the sixth studio album by American rock band Alice Cooper, released in 1973. The album became the best selling Alice Cooper record at the time of its release, hit number one on the album charts in both the United States and the United Kingdom, and went on to be certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America

Alice Cooper - Billion Dollar Babies (1973).

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.

The Billion Dollar Babies album was re-released with new packaging as a DVD in 2000. It contains all the songs plus interviews and bonus tracks. As part of his stage show, Cooper would mutilate dolls when he performed this song. The tour for the album introduced the props Cooper became famous for, including the guillotine, the snake, and hundreds of cans of beer. This song took on new meaning when Cooper started playing casinos in the '90s. 1973 was the last year that Alice Cooper was recognized as a group, rather than just the lead singer  . Darrell from Portland, MeOK - Here is some facts: 1 Billion $ Babies was not the last album by the original Alice Cooper Group, they followed it with Muscle of Love (73) and Greatest Hits (74) 2 They recorded the tracks at The Record Plant in NYC with Bob Ezrin producing 3 Donovan's tracks were recorded in London when Cooper was on tour there.

Billion Dollar Babies. Billion Dollar Babies. Classic Coop!!! This IS the best album from the 'original' Alice Cooper band. Only one song seems out-of-place, if you ask me but the whole record is Alice and his rag-tag band at full gusto. Elected" is just exploding with confidence and Alice's quirky style of shameless self-promotion (in a good way).

Billion Dollar Babies (song). Billion Dollar Babies". Billion Dollar Babies" is a popular 1973 single by rock group Alice Cooper, taken from the album Billion Dollar Babies.
