Blue Oyster Cult - Fire of Unknown Origin (Translucent Blue Vinyl) - VINYL LP

Limited translucent blue vinyl LP pressing. Includes Culture Factory obi strip. Fire of Unknown Origin is the eighth album by hard rockers Blue Öyster Cult, originally released in 1981. It was produced by Martin Birch. The album, which included the Top 40 hit InchBurnin' for YouInch (#1 on Billboard's Album Rock Tracks chart) represented a resurgence of the group's commercial standing after two albums with disappointing sales. Fire of Unknown Origin would be the final studio LP featuring the band's original lineup. The album continues BÖC's tendency to write quirky songs, from the title track (featuring lyrics by Patti Smith) to InchJoan CrawfordInch. Many of the songs were intended for the soundtrack of the animated film Heavy Metal. However, only the song InchVeteran of the Psychic WarsInch, co-written by science fiction author Michael Moorcock, ended up in the film's final version and soundtrack. Album Tracks 1.
