"Lips in the Hills" is classic. As far as cartoon BOC goes, I like "Veteran of the Psychic Wars" off the Heavy Metal soundtrack. Not sure if it ever showed up on a Blue Oyster Cult proper album though.

I don't think it did. I sing that sometimes when I'm feeling especially Jack Black-ish.

Transmaniacon MC (from BLUE OYSTER CULT)
Before the Kiss, a Redcap (from BLUE OYSTER CULT)
Screams (from BLUE OYSTER CULT)
Subhuman (from SECRET TREATIES)
Hot Rails to Hell (from TYRANNY & MUTATION)
M.E. 262 (from SECRET TREATIES)
OD'd on Life Itself (from BLUE OYSTER CULT)
The Red & The Black (from TYRANNY & MUTATION)
Workshop of the Telescopes (from BLUE OYSTER CULT)
Flaming Telepaths (from SECRET TREATIES)

Using this as a playlist, Blue Oyster Cult reveals itself as very very not-crappy.


If someone has the wherewithal to hook me up with this take on BOC, I'd be glad to listen to it.

The CD reissue of Tyranny and Mutation includes a previously unreleased studio version of 'Buck's Boogie'. It is a grandiose boogie.

The album art on the first two records is superb, as well.

Fantastic songs. I'd probably add "Mistress of the Salmon Salt" too.

Sweet early comp. I forget how approachable BOC was during the first few lps.

The Red and Black cover is sweet.

How can you hate a band that writes songs about Canadian Mounted Police!
