Billion Dollar Babies (Bruce/Dunaway/Smith) - Complete Battle Axe
Not an Official release but I had to add this for the reason of it being one of my favorite solo projects. "Battle Axe" in my opinion is the best recording that combined the remaining Alice Cooper Group although Glen Buxton wasn't involved at the time. It is known in the internet circles that Neal Smith doesn't acknowledge this release and publicly wrote an open letter via internet expressing his opinion. Who's involved for this release I have no idea but to be honest as an Alice Cooper fan of the original band I'm very glad it's out and it doesn't dimness them in my eyes or ears.

This 3 CD set goes as follows:

Disc 1: The Original "Battle Axe" Lp that was released. From what I'm told this is a copy of the vinyl burned on CD. Again I have the Lp but skips and crackles with age I am happy to get a clean version for myself. I know it's not studio enhanced & touched up in volume etc...but it's better than what I have in my collection.

Disc 2: Bonus Original Demos. Alternative lyrics and musical arrangements of songs that made "Battle Axe" plus some songs that didn't make it. It's interesting to hear the process of these songs and the finished product.

A correction on the 2nd Disc is an unlisted track "I Don't Know Babe", between tracks 10 & 11. Correction of track 11 "Wallow Through This Madness" (not “Madhouse”).

Disc 3: First ever Live Show Flint, Michigan 1977
This is the only recording of these musicians from this band. They sound primed and haven't missed a note. They perform their "Battle Axe" songs as well an Alice Cooper medley of tunes "No More Mr. Nice Guy", "Elected", "I'm Eighteen", "School's Out" and close the concert with "Billion Dollar Babies".

The 3 CD set comes with a booklet of rare photos of the band performing as the Billion Dollar Babies and an interview with Michael Bruce from June 2001.
