They re-emerged a year later under the watchful eye of manager and producer Sandy Pearlman as Blue Oyster Cult. Originally signed to Elektra Records in 1970 as the Soft White Underbelly, the band was dropped from that label before their debut album could be released. They get down to business later in the set with ballsy versions of "Hot Rails To Hell," "Godzilla," and the band's long time closer, "Cities On Flame With Rock 'n Roll." Also featured is the band's biggest radio hit, "(Don't Fear) The Reaper." (Extra Terrestrial Intelligence)," and "Harvester Of Eyes," among them. Some of the material here will engage the listener with themes of science fiction and the supernatural: "Stairway To The Stars," "E.T.I. The live album had a brilliant remake of the MC5 classic, "Kick Out The Jams," and a less convincing version of the Animals' 1965 hit, "We Gotta Get Out of This Place." In their place for this tour was a meaty, but not too innovative take on the Steppenwolf gem, "Born To Be Wild." That song would eventually become a staple of the BOC live show. Much of it contains material also found on the Evening disc, with the obvious substitution of the covers the band always included in its live shows. The intense creative vision of BÖC's original core duo of vocalist/lead guitarist Donald "Buck Dharma" Roeser and vocalist/rhythm guitarist Eric Bloom are complemented by Richie Castellano on guitar and keyboards, and the longtime rhythm section of bass guitarist Danny Miranda, and drummer Jules Radino.Eric Bloom - guitar, vocals Albert Bouchard - guitar, drums, vocals Joe Bouchard - bass, guitar, piano, vocals Tony Cedrone - percussion Allen Lanier - bass, guitar, keyboards, vocals Rickey Reyer - percussion Donald "Buck Dharma" Roeser - guitar, vocalsīlue Oyster Cult was out hawking its successful live LP, Some Enchanted Evening, when this set was captured for national airplay on the King Biscuit Flower Hour in January, 1979.

BLUE ÖYSTER CULT is sometimes referred to as "the thinking man's heavy metal band," due to its often cryptic lyrics, literate songwriting, and links to famous authors. Often cited as a major influence by some of the biggest names in hard rock and heavy metal (including IRON MAIDEN and METALLICA), BLUE ÖYSTER CULT's sound has evolved through the decades, touching hard rock, heavy metal, progressive, and psychedelic rock. Songs like "Burnin' For You", "Godzilla", "Astronomy" and "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" are true classics and staples of the classic rock genre. They've sold more than 24 million records worldwide, including seven million in the United States alone. With a history spanning almost five decades, BLUE ÖYSTER CULT has a long history of success. Last year, BLUE ÖYSTER CULT signed with Frontiers Music Srl for the release of the band's next studio album. Hope we can get back on the road and see you all soon. In a statement accompanying the release of the song, BLUE ÖYSTER CULT wrote: "So while 'ON TOUR FOREVER' is temporarily on hold we took a short break from working on our next album to record this from everyone's home studio.

The special performance of the track - which originally appeared on 1977's "Spectres" album - was recorded from each member's respective home and shared by BLUE ÖYSTER CULT on the band's official YouTube channel. Legendary rock band BLUE ÖYSTER CULT has recorded a "lockdown" version of its classic song "Godzilla".
