Blue Oyster Cult – I Love The Night [from the Spectres album 1977]

That night her kiss told me it was over I walked out late into the dark The misty gloom seems to soak up my sorrow The further I went on I felt a spreading calm Then suddenly my eyes were bathed in light And the lovely lady in white was by my side She said "like me I see you're walking alone Won't you please stay? " I couldn't look away[....]

Sound track for The Revolution’s “tender moments.”

Anything named "Blue Oyster" looks as something homesexual - after the "Blue Oyster Bar" from the "Police Academy" film.

“Band name and logo[edit]

The hook-and-cross logo

The Saturn symbol in alchemy
The name “Blue Öyster Cult” came from a 1960s poem written by manager Sandy Pearlman. It was part of his “Imaginos” poetry, later used more extensively in their 1988 album Imaginos. Pearlman had also come up with the band’s earlier name, “Soft White Underbelly”, from a phrase used by Winston Churchill in describing Italy during World War II. In Pearlman’s poetry, the “Blue Oyster Cult” was a group of aliens who had assembled to secretly guide Earth’s history. “Initially, the band was not happy with the name, but settled for it, and went to work preparing to record their first release...”[8]

“In a 1976 interview published in the U.K. music magazine Zig Zag, Pearlman told the story explaining the origin of the band’s name was an anagram of “Cully Stout Beer”.”

Can anyone tell me if they still perform “Guitars That Destroyed the World”? That was life altering

Saw them at Pompano Amphitheatre this summer, great concert! The Robbie Krieger Band performed before them with a nice Doors segment.

Always had good feelings about them since Eric Bloom and I share the same alma mater!

They also closed out the Fox & Friends summer concert series recently but their sound isn’t quite as good when it has to keep the volume low.

Great album.

Germane to the Halloween theme, a better tune off the same vinyl would be "Nosferatu".

I recently dug out my vinyl copy of “On Your Feet or On Your Knees.”

I hadn’t heard that in 30 years - that was a great album.

Yeah, it's great stuff. Memories of my teenage daze. Ran this out on 8-track.

Now it's in MP3. And I have the original black and white silent film on DVD.

Interesting bit of trivia: The guy who played the vampire was Max Von Shrek. 'Shrek' is 'fear' in German.
