For fans of Blue Öyster Cult, Blue Coupe, and Classic Rock! Albert Bouchard is best known as one of the founding members of Blue Öyster Cult. The original band sold millions of albums for Columbia Records with such classic songs as “Don’t Fear the Reaper†and the #1 hit on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart “Burning For Youâ€. As a songwriter, he wrote many BÖC songs including the very popular â€Astronomy†which was covered by Metallica on their 1998’s release Garage Inc and the live staple “Cities on Flame with Rock and Rollâ€, which he also sang lead vocals. Albert’s famous cowbell on “(Don’t Fear) The Reaper†was the basis of the popular SNL skit with Will Ferrell and Christopher Walken, which has gained over 13 million views and spawned the phrase “More Cowbellâ€. Due to the overwhelming response to Re Imaginos, Albert’s revisiting of the 1988 Blue Öyster Cult album Imaginos. We are now releasing a Double LP gatefold version which includes extended versions of “In the Presence of Another Worldâ€, “Imaginosâ€, “Blue Oyster Cultâ€, plus the bonus “Imaginos Overtureâ€. In addition, Rolling Stone editor David Fricke provides comprehensive liner notes and an insight into the story that is Imaginos. Imaginos weaves scripts and poems by the late Sandy Pearlman, a concept album about an alien conspiracy that is brought to fruition during the late 19th and early 20th century through the actions of Imaginos, an agent of evil.
