    Classed as Hardrock, some material is but some of it more akin to Alice C. IMO. I saw them live in Southampton and extremely good they were https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/blue-...-43db5b67.html

    Wiki "The band's fusion of hard rock with psychedelia, and penchant for occult, fantastical and tongue-in-cheek lyrics, had a major influence on heavy metal music.[3][4][5] They developed a cult following and, while achieving mainstream hits like "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" (1976) and "Burnin' for You" (1981), their commercial success was limited. Both songs, and others such as "Godzilla" (1977), remain classic rock radio staples.:"

    I think you'd probably enjoy them, this one is a good starting pointing. the 1st three albums are good as well, maybe less commercial.
    Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

    Analog Inputs: Pro-Ject Signature 10 TT & arm, Benz Micro LP-S, Michel Cusis MC, Goldring 2500 and Ortofon Rondo Blue cartridges, Hitachi FT5500 mk2 Tuner

    Digital:- Marantz SA-KI Pearl CD player, RaspberryPi/HifiBerry Digi+ Pro, Buffalo NAS Drive

    Amplification:- AudioValve Sunilda phono stage, Krell KSP-7B pre-amp, Krell KSA-80 power amp

    Output: Wilson Benesch Vector speakers, KLH Ultimate One Headphones

    Cables: Tellurium Q Ultra Black II RCA & Chord Epic 2 RCA, various speaker leads, & links

    I think I am nearing audio nirvana, but don’t tell anyone.

    I regard Blue Öyster Cult as AOR, no more, no less.

    Jenny Lewis
    The Voyager
    LP

    Lyrics are the ramblings of man, sometimes inspired by The Creator, most often, not.
    But music (melodies, harmonies, rhythms), that's God stuff.
    Always was. Always will be.

    One of the biggest lies ever told was that only certain kinds of people should listen to certain kinds of music.
