Alice Cooper | Billion Dollar Babies | Album

Alice Cooper's 1973 masterpiece, Billion Dollar Babies, is widely regarded by critics as the creative and commercial zenith of the original Alice Cooper group. Released on February 25, 1973, it became the band's only album to hit number one in both the US and UK. Modern retrospectives generally view the album as a perfect blend of "grimy scuzz-rock and gleaming, streamlined commerciality". While contemporary 1973 reviews from Rolling Stone were notably harsh—calling the production "inept" and the songs "absurd"—later critical re-evaluations have solidified its status as a "quintessential classic".

The original 1973 release of Billion Dollar Babies on Warner Brothers Records had a padded Gatefold Sleeve resembling a snakeskin wallet containing a set of cards and a billion dollar banknote.
