No, it’s not, Paul. It’s an abomination. Shockingly bad.

^ It's good that we all agree Imaginos should be in the Blue Oyster Cult Top 5, apart from Pete Pardo, obviously. Smile
 
Overall though, Pete Pardo's album rankings for Blue Oyster Cult probably make a lot more sense than my bizarre rankings. Tongue
 
Their latest 2020 album - The Symbol Remains - is surprisingly good too, if you haven't already heard it. Thumbs Up

The Blue Oyster Cult album rankings are where Pete Pardo & I disagree most of all, especially on the ranking of the Imaginos album, but Heaven Forbid that I give Imaginos any less than a full 5-star rating. Smile
 




Wow i agree with Steve G on this issue...

I was surprised how good Blue Oyster Cult's new album is too, after hearing it for the first time today. Thumbs Up

I think two YouTube Prog Britannia channels is enough to be going on with, but thanks for the suggestion. Smile

As several others have said, Pete Pardo's album rankings make a lot more sense than mine, so I couldn't possibly compete with his Sea of Tranquility show. Tongue

Hahaha, well, there are no right and wrong answers, as he says. So, what sense? LOL
I'll have Pete Pardo's sensible rankings for Blue Oyster Cult's albums coming up next, alongside my album listings, which may or may not be quite so "sensible". Smile
He'd better put their first three albums on top or they will be hell to pay! Angry

All is well with KC fans as long as LTiA is rated number 1.


Currently reading Sid Smith's updated bio of the band and this period reads like they prefer SBB & Red ahead of LTiA but it's always been my favorite, it's probably their most visceral other than THRaKaTTaK. 
oh yeah Thrakattak is killer. If this was a live album poll I would put it up near the top. And I've heard nothing but praise for the Smith book.

It’s a fantastic read. Very highly recommended to anyone with an interest in Crim, Fripp, and the machinations of the music industry.

In the Court of King Crimson, there's only one album that reigns supreme. Thumbs Up
 





Mmm who’s the one on drugs, hmm well i’m on a prescription medicines which as a dose of cannabis like effect on it. Would that count on it being ME!
