Special Forces ~ Alice Cooper

Special Forces is the sixth solo studio album by American rock singer Alice Cooper, released on September 1, 1981 by Warner Bros. Records. It was produced by Richard Podolor at his American Recording Co. studio in the Studio City neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. Podolor is best known for his work with Three Dog Night.
Special Forces is the first of three studio albums which Cooper refers to as his "blackout" albums, followed by Zipper Catches Skin (1982), and DaDa (1983), 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 only Special Forces.

"Look at You Over There, Ripping the Sawdust from My Teddybear", was listed on the album packaging, but was removed by Cooper from the album itself before the release, as he felt it didn't fit with the overall theme. It was later released in demo form on the 4-CD box set The Life and Crimes of Alice Cooper (1999). There is a completed studio version of the song which remains unreleased.
"Seven and Seven Is" is a cover version of Love's 1966 original, written by Arthur Lee.
