It also was a return to their more hard rock sounds as first heard on his earlier albums like Killer (FRM 2567),complete with the prog-rock/heavy metal workouts, which have since become synonymous with the Alice Cooper legacy. Featuring smash tracks like "Teenage Lament '74," & "Never Been Sold Before," the LP became one of his most revered projects ever. Friday Music is proud to announce the first time 180 Gram Vinyl 40th Anniversary Ltd. Edition of Alice Cooper's Muscle Of Love. Review: Audio Fidelity SACD release 2015 - Highly underrated album from the original Alice Cooper Band. It's only crime was having to follow the group's masterpiece - Billion Dollar Babies - from which it suffered critical comparison. On it's own, Muscle of Love is another exciting and creative output that fits in well with the band's amazing string of releases stretching from Love It To Death thru Killer, School's Out and BDB's. The mastering on this new Audio Fidelity disc is really wonderful. Yep.. Bob Ezrin did some amazing mixing and production on the previous four albums, but Richardson and Douglas did a fantastic job on MOL too. Really fun and effective production and mixing which Steve Hoffman of AF brings back very nicely. Definitely the definitive CD release of this album and I'm only referring to the 2.0 stereo mix. I don't have a SACD enabled player so I can't imagine how cool the 4.0 might sound if the 2.0 is this good. As they had done on past albums, the band really stretches out with unique material and music styles. Sure, there are classic hard rockers here, but check out Crazy Little Child or Hard Hearted Alice to see how different this band was from the average rock act and hear the varied stylistic influences they incorporated. Even when they brought in some jazz or acoustic moods or brass, this band simply rocked and seemed to enjoy challenging and confronting their audience. Woman Machine seems to be a throw away track but I truly enjoy all the others including what could have been one of the absolute greatest James Bond themes ever, Man With The Golden Gun (if the movie producers had been able to get this bit of brilliance in time). Don't be swayed by the stories of the band falling apart and "ruining" this album. Yes, Glen was almost completely absent and there were growing internal tensions, but the rest of the band crafted a great album with the addition of some top notch sidemen. I'd highly recommend this Audio Fidelity release, right down to it's great packaging and inclusion of album style extras like the original vinyl release. Bonus..... this makes for one amazing headphone experience. Review: Perfect. - Came in great packaging. Works perfect no scratches. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00AG477L0 | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (359) | | Date First Available | December 3, 2012 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Label | Friday Music | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Friday Music | | Number of discs | 1 | | Original Release Date | 2015 | | Product Dimensions | 12.6 x 12.5 x 0.35 inches; 12.64 ounces | ## Images ![Muscle Of Love - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/917IiykIiRL.jpg) ![Muscle Of Love - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91zIqmo80NL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Audio Fidelity SACD release 2015 *by C***G on January 25, 2016* Highly underrated album from the original Alice Cooper Band.

Works perfect no scratches. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not the steriotypical Alice Cooper *by O***X on February 18, 2013* I came to be an Alice Cooper fan quite late in the game. I accidently came across "Welcome To My Nightmare" '75 and "Goes To Hell" '76 while visiting a cousin. On the first play, I was hooked...maybe that's why momma forbid me to have any Alice Cooper or Kiss music. Once in college and away from home I purchased "Killer" '72 in late 1980, I realized at this tyme that I had been missing out on a really Xciting artist and would have to collect all the releases as funds permitted. Now that you know a little of my history concerning the Coop, let me get on with "Muscle Of Love" '73. The Alice Cooper Group had released "Billion Dollar Babies" earlier that year and it was a smashing success with several hits and some very interesting, odd subject matter. If you are Xpecting to hear more of the Alice that did "Killer" & "Billion Dollar Babies", you may be disappointed. "Muscle Of Love" is more of a musical Xperiment, incorporating various musical stylings in with their rock n roll. There is no "I Love The Dead" or "Sick Things" types of songs and there's really no heavier handed rockers like "Billion Dollar Babies" or "No More Mr. Nice Guy". Even so, this album rocks, just rocks a little differntly. Some may think this is just an album of filler material due to the lack of any stand out singles. I agree, for the Alice Cooper Group this could be filler material, but it's pretty darn good. "Big Apple Dreamin' (Hippo)" and "Hard Hearted Alice" always seem very visual...just seems he's taking me on a journey with his story telling, stimulates my imagination. "Man With The Golden Gun" should have been a FM radio hit, but I've still never heard it on the airwaves...another reason to get XM. "Teenage Lament '74) is the closest thing to a real hit, but it's a cool song and it rocks. "Never Been Sold Before" has some interesting horns going on. "Crazy Little Child" has that New Orleans sound with piano and horns, some may question it, but I think it works well. "Working Up A Sweat" just an upbeat rocker. "Muscle Of Love" fast paced rocker. "Women Machine" is the weakest number to me, but it's still alright and fits in well with the rest of the material. If you're wanting the Shock Rocker with ghoulish, dark subject matter...this might not be the one for you. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/6790972-muscle-of-love](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/6790972-muscle-of-love) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-14*
