Re: Blue Oyster Cult

My apologies I put Cultosaurus Erectus before Mirrors for some strange reason, they were released the other way around...

Thanks to Rocker440 for letting me know, I have corrected the dates now.

Me, I did what? It's all good LG! It would've most likely blew right by me as well, if I hadn't bought that album when it first came out, and also saw BOC on that tour, too. I don't know where to start when it comes to this fantastic band, their many great albums, songs, and also their performances!

I will probably be back to this thread many times, so I hope I don't make too many members nod off!

I'll try to find some songs that are some of my favorites that haven't already been included here, although that may prove to be fairly difficult, as many of them are here now!

Re: Blue Oyster Cult

No worries Rocker440, there are plenty of songs left to post. I will do the next album later today seeing there is some interest in this old dinosaur.

Re: Blue Oyster Cult

Although Ezekiel posted this one a long time ago it deserves another viewing.

If I were to recommend One Blue Oyster Cult album to someone who never heard their music before, then it would definitely be 1981's "Fire Of Unknown Origin".(Other than a greatest hits compilation.) It encompasses the entire range of the band at the pinnacle of their career. I remember buying it and just saying..."Wow!, they've done it again." This also marked a comeback of sorts seeing both albums before it didn't do well commercially.

Heavy Metal.

Re: Blue Oyster Cult

I'm almost embarrassed to admit that I found this band via Guitar Hero, but I'm a big fan of "Cities on Flame with Rock and Roll" and "Don't Fear the Reaper".

I need to find more of them

Nothing wrong with that! Heck, I've found so many songs through the Guitar Hero video games it's not even funny!
