Special Forces

Special Forces is the sixth solo and overall thirteenth studio album by American rock singer Alice Cooper, released on September 1, 1981 by Warner Bros. Records. It was produced by Richard Podolor, best known for his work with Three Dog Night, at his American Recording Co. studio in the Studio City neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. Special Forces is the first of three studio albums which Cooper refers to as his "blackout" albums, followed by Zipper Catches Skin, and DaDa, as he has no recollection of recording them, due to substance abuse. Cooper stated "I wrote them, recorded them and toured them and I don't remember much of any of that", though in fact, he toured to promote only Special Forces. The Special Forces tour started on June 20, 1981 in Concord, California, well before the album was eventually released. On October 9, Alice Cooper was interviewed on The Tomorrow Show with Tom Snyder, looking very gaunt in full military-drag make-up, after which he gave live performances of "Who Do You Think We Are" and his cover version of Love's "Seven and Seven Is", both from the album.
