Billion Dollar Babies

Musical Group

A 1977 rock group formed by former Alice Cooper band members (Michael Bruce, Neal Smith, Dennis Dunaway) that recorded the album Battle Axe, toured briefly (reportedly ending after four gigs) and then dissolved amid financial and legal difficulties.

Members mentioned in DeBaser review: Michael Bruce (guitar, lead vocals), Neal Smith (rhythm), Dennis Dunaway (rhythm); additional players: Mike Marconi (lead guitar), Bob Dolin (keyboards). Producer cited: Lee De Carlo. Label cited: Polydor. Manager mentioned: Shep Gordon (legal threats).

The available DeBaser review (Valeriorivoli) covers the 1977 Battle Axe album by Billion Dollar Babies, a band formed from former Alice Cooper members. The review praises Michael Bruce's vocals and several tracks while noting the band's short-lived, underfunded tour and legal pressure. Overall appraisal is measured: competent musicianship and nostalgic value, rating 3/5.

For:Fans of classic rock, Alice Cooper, glam/arena rock and collectors of 1970s rock rarities.

 Too Young - Michael Bruce's lead vocals mimic the old Alice, and you can't say our guy makes you miss the original: his voice is less menacing than daddy's but this record could very well fit into Vincent Furnier's discography, in every way, indeed it definitely sounds better than Alice's alcohol-infused records of that period.
