1. Buck and Eric Buck and Eric, they weren't the only members of Blue oyster cult. alot of credit should be given to Albert and Joe Bouchard. they were the glue, the heartbeat, the founders. now the brothers have their own band with Dennis Dunaway, Blue Coupe which are great!
2. I am happy to see that the large flock of show cassettes I released into the wild years ago
   have found new life and spread the Legend of the Cult far and wide. This was a wonderful
   set to mix......George Geranios
3. yes i remember that
4. saw BOC many times in the 70's and 80's. one of my favorite bands of all time. saw them at the spectrum in philly many times. saw them a few times in phoenix at the colesium. saw them in tenn a few times. once in a litlle bar in murfreesboro tn. saw them in baltimore civic center, steel town. they were and still one of my favorite live bands.of all time. the only band i have seen more than them is frank zappa. have all of BOC'S albums, cassettes, and cd's. have some on all three. put many miles on my vehicles back in the day riding around listening to them smoking some refer. not hurting anybody, just enjoying life with my best friends and some good rock-n-roll. we had it made in the 60's and 70's.
5. Great version! One of their best songs.
6. My favorite BOC song. Anyone else feel the same way? I can't explain it...it is just out of this world great. Astronomy!
7. Wow...!!!  Amazing how much "different" Buck's solo is on this set versus the one on Some Enchanted Evening, yet both are as if they were meant to be.  True genius and talent, yet so underrated...!!!
8. This is such an AMAZING recording!
   
   All the clips from that time are poorly recorded, but this is straight from the mixer and this is Buck at his very best.
   
   WOW!
9. This is f'ing incredible.
10. between the 1st 3 BO C albums i like is Secret Treadise.there is far more hidden messages , than in your face incantations from eric bloom, (best guitars).did anyone see that special cult insignia guitar eric had? deep blue. sickle w gibson on the headstock.? i heard it got stolen.believe 1/2 what you see none of what you hear.
11. def my favorite Astronomy of all time...love Buck's recurring whammy bar note push (or whatever you call it) theme throughout the whole song.
