Alice Cooper- Special Forces-LP

Alice Cooper’s Special Forces stands out as his thirteenth studio effort, weaving a blend of rock tracks with a few intriguing twists. Notably, the album features guest appearances by Flo and Eddie, lending a distinctive edge with their background vocals. Among its tracks, “Generation Landslide ’81” revisits a 1973 song from Billion Dollar Babies with a fresh take, while the cover of Love’s “Seven & Seven Is” nods to the 1966 original by Arthur Lee. Produced by Richard Podolor, known for his work with Three Dog Night, the album reflects a polished yet energetic approach that fits neatly into Cooper’s evolving catalog. It’s an album that might not shout loudest on the shelf but rewards those who listen closely. This 1981 Jacksonville pressing captures the album on vinyl with a clean presentation that’s sure to appeal to collectors who appreciate a well-maintained copy. The vinyl shows only minor, light surface marks typical for its age and plays with a glossy finish. It’s a solid choice for anyone adding to their Alice Cooper collection or exploring the artist’s early ’80s phase. If you like your classic rock with a side of unexpected collaborators and a wink to earlier material, this pressing delivers without forcing its charm.
