alwizard03 Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 I would vote for On Your Feet or on your Knees Both are pretty good though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMAZONIC Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 What, no BOC fans? I was waiting for this thread, Dancin Days! Thanks. I can't say I am a die hard fan of the band, but their music has always intrigued me. A very much underrated band in my opinion... Their Godzilla and Astronomy are a cult...

Strider Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Now that "Some Enchanted Evening" has been released in a deluxe edition, the answer is easy...it's "SOME ENCHANTED EVENING"! Not only do you get the original double-album restored, but there is bonus dvd footage as well. And while containing most of the early classics that are on "On Your Feet...", you also get the later classics like "Godzilla" and "Don't Fear The Reaper". And while we are on the subject of live BOC, don't forget "Extraterrestrial Live", which was recorded on the "Fire of Unknown Origin" tour of 1981-82. Frankly, all three are great and focus on the three main periods of BOC's career. But if I had to choose just one, it would be "Some Enchanted Evening"...just remember to get the deluxe edition.

the chase Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 great news and hopfully the start of a quality reunion.. Original BLUE ÖYSTER CULT members Allen Lanier (keyboards, guitar), Albert Bouchard (drums, percussion), Joe Bouchard (bass), Donald "Buck Dharma" Roeser (guitar) and Eric Bloom (lead vocals, rhythm guitar) will reunite to perform on November 5 at the Best Buy Theater in New York City. Legacy Recordings, the catalog division of Sony Music Entertainment, celebrated the 40th anniversary of "Blue Öyster Cult" — unleashed in 1972, the eponymous debut album from America's heaviest psychedelic metal band presaged punk, thrash and hardcore — with the release of "Blue Öyster Cult - The Columbia Albums Collection", a monumental career-spanning BLUE ÖYSTER CULT library comprised of 16 CDs (the full official canon plus two discs of rarities) and the mythic "Some Other Enchanted Evening" DVD (a blistering concert video from 1978). The highly-collectible boxed set was made available this past Tuesday, October 30. "Blue Öyster Cult - The Columbia Albums Collection" brings together the group's 14 official Columbia Records albums — including newly-mastered editions of "On Your Feet Or On Your Knees", "Fire Of Unknown Origin", "The Revolution By Night", "Mirrors", "Cultosaurus Erectus", "Extraterrestrial Live", "Club Ninja" and "Imaginos" — alongside two newly-curated bonus discs: "Rarities" and "Radios Appear: The Best Of The Broadcasts" (a special collection of classic live performances). In addition, the "Blue Öyster Cult - The Columbia Albums Collection" box set comes with a special download code good for four live concert broadcasts as well as as a forty-page booklet chock-full of photos and liner notes from celebrated music writer and guitarist Lenny Kaye. "Blue Öyster Cult - The Columbia Albums Collection" includes: 01. Blue Öyster Cult (1972 - studio - with 2001 CD bonus tracks) 02. Tyranny And Mutation (1973 - studio - with 2001 CD bonus tracks) 03. Secret Treaties (1974 - studio - with 2001 CD bonus tracks) 04. On Your Feet Or On Your Knees (1975 - live) - 2012 Remaster 05. Agents Of Fortune (1976 - studio - with 2001 CD bonus tracks) 06. Spectres (1977 - studio - with 2007 CD bonus tracks) 07. Some Enchanted Evening CD (1978 - live - with 2007 CD bonus tracks) 08. Some Other Enchanted Evening DVD (1978 - live) 09. Mirrors (1979 - studio) - 2012 Remaster 10. Cultosaurus Erectus (1980 - studio) - 2012 Remaster 11. Fire Of Unknown Origin (1981 - studio) - 2012 Remaster 12. Extraterrestrial Live (1982 - live) - 2012 Remaster 13. The Revolution By Night (1983 - studio) - 2012 Remaster 14. Club Ninja (1985 - studio) - 2012 Remaster 15. Imaginos (1988 - studio) - 2012 Remaster 16. Rarities 17. Radios Appear: The Best of the Broadcasts Originally formed in Long Island as SOFT WHITE UNDERBELLY in 1967, BLUE ÖYSTER CULT combined adventurous lyrical themes with an aggressive instrumental sound. With passion and intelligence on display in equal measure, BLUE ÖYSTER CULT became the thinking fan's rock band and a sign of life in a sea of dull, anemic soft-pop. Anthems like "Godzilla", "Harvester Of Eyes" and "Don't Fear The Reaper" stretched the boundaries of rock topics while lead guitarist Donald "Buck Dharma" Roeser became a hero to legions of budding axe-wielders. The band's mystique extended to their album artwork, resulting in some of the most distinctive and iconic LP covers of the rock era. "Blue Öyster Cult - The Columbia Albums Collection" gathers the essential pieces of the BLUE ÖYSTER CULT story into one mind-boggling totality.
