The Original Album Classics series by Song/BMG in Germany is an attempt to clear shelves of catalog titles that are lying about, but it inadvertently provides a great opportunity to those who have developed a sincere interest in a band via a greatest-hits comp but have yet to score any actual titles. These budget-priced, completely remastered collections feature full-length album classics -- in this case five studio albums by the Blue Öyster Cult from their eponymously titled Columbia debut through to Tyranny and Mutation, Secret Treaties, Agents of Fortune, and Mirrors -- unfortunately, the live classic On Your Feet or On Your Knees isn't included, nor is Spectres. Mirrors is strictly crap, but everything else here does rock. These discs are the remastered versions and all contain bonus material wherever possible. Again, this should have been a consecutive set, but four of these five albums are indispensable if you don't already have them. You can use Mirrors as a coaster. ~ Thom Jurek
