School's Out (album)
School's Out is the fifth studio album by American Rock band Alice Cooper, released in 1972. The album's title track has remained a staple song in Alice Cooper's live setlist and receives regular airplay on many "Classic Rock" radio stations.
School's Out reached #2 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart and #1 on the Canadian RPM 100 Top Albums chart, holding the top position for four weeks.[4] The single "School's Out" reached #7 on the Billboard Hot 100, #3 on the Canadian RPM Top Singles Chart[5] and went all the way to #1 in the UK Singles Chart.
Packaging
The original album cover (designed by Craig Braun)[6] had the sleeve opening in the manner of a wooden student desk. The vinyl record inside was wrapped in a pair of panties,[7] though this was later discontinued as the paper panties were found to be flammable.[8] The actual desk is on display in the Hard Rock Cafe in Las Vegas.
