Billion Dollar Babies Era 2

Billion Dollar Babies 7" Promotional Vinyl Single

1973, Warner Brothers, WB 7724

 

This USA 7" promotional vinyl single features white Warner Brothers labels, comes in a Warner Brothers paper sleeve, and includes Mono and Stereo versions of Billion Dollar Babies (from the Billion Dollar Babies album) on Sides A and B respectively. This was a common feature of promotional singles at the time, as it enabled radio stations to play songs on both AM (Mono) and FM (Stereo) stations.

 

Each label also includes an 'Intro' time, which helped DJs to understand how long they had to introduce a song prior to the lyrics beginning.

Billion Dollar Babies Replica 1973 Medallion

Bermagot Brass Works, 2011

 

This nice medallion is a replica of the extremely rare gold coloured item from 1973 that was handed out to members of the Alice Cooper 'family' (e.g. the band, crew members and promoters etc). It is thought that only about 50 were originally made.

 

The silver replicas were sold for a short period (about 2 weeks) in 2011 and have themselves become quite sought after.
