BLUE OYSTER CULT

Triple Feature (softpack) (CD)

The Triple Feature series by Sony Legacy compiles three -- usually well-known -- catalog albums by big-name artists, assembles them in a slipcase box, and sells them at a budget price to consumers. While the reason may be simply a new package in order to clear shelves of excess inventory, this exercise also serves a purpose for collectors and fans filling in holes for a favorite artist. That said, one has to wonder what was in the company's drinking water or if there was a true overload of inventory on these three remastered titles by Blue Öyster Cult. The set includes the band's stellar eponymously titled debut album issued in 1972, with its anthemic classic "Cities on Flame with Rock and Roll"; 1981's killer comeback recording Fire of Unknown Origin, which contains the smash "Burnin' for You"; and finally 1985's double live album entitled Extraterrestrial Live. This last entry not only contains stellar concert versions of the aforementioned tracks, but also other BOC hits such as "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" and "Godzilla." In addition, there is a riotous "Hot Rails to Hell" and a cover of the Doors' "Roadhouse Blues" with Robby Krieger on guitar, making this the best of BOC's many live recordings. It's hard to imagine why this set was assembled this way, but it hardly matters. It makes an excellent -- if extra-large -- introduction to the band. The budget price for the set is also a bargain.
