Ran across this ad on my Facebook feed. Published by WYMER in the U.K. This book is edited by Martin Popoff (who else) and is described as follows:" In Dominance and Submission: The Blue Oyster Cult Canon three time BOC book author Martin Popoff turns the microphone away from himself to moderate a gathered and esteemed panel of Cult experts for deep dive discussions on every BOC studio album, ect. No stone is left unturned as we look at the personalities in the band, every song, album cover, the bands highly regarded lyrics as poetry, their music as ground breaking and genre-defying". There's more but you get the idea. Whom the "esteemed panel" is made up of is not mentioned. For ordering info you can contact here, Email:shop@wymeruk.co.uk Just thought I'd pass the info on.

Let us know what you think of it.... if you like transcripts of people talking about BÖC or if you like "reaction" youtube videos, you're going to be in heaven. if not, well, it's a book about BÖC, so it's essential. |

Well, I love transcripts of people like Buck, Eric, Albert, Joe, and Allen talking about BOC.... |

I can't do Popoff after his second BOC Book. Worst.Editing.Ever...
Let me know if any Brilliant Opinions Squeeze out of the Binding :-)
Instead of reading the opinion of 4 folks I don't know (I'd rather read folks on this site and Jack and Alma's), however, I'm motivated to go through the BOC Canon myself...

Not a fan of MP either but at least he is putting BOC stuff out in print. It's a shame that he doesn't appear to understand or like the band.

Popoff is huge fan of the band, he has admitted that the BOC-related material he puts out comes nowhere near to paying any kind of bills; he does it because it's dear to his heart. Until Ralph puts out the ultimate BOC book, this is what we have.

At least Popoff writes about BOC. I admit never having read an entire book by him. So I don't know. Watched a podcast tho.
When I'm off work and at home, I'm still surprised anyone still gives a damn.

When I'm off work and at home, I'm still surprised anyone still gives a damn. You have to have some sense, though, of what BOC’s music means to so many of us. First heard BOC in 1981 - not via FOUO, but ME 262, at a friend’s house. I still have happy memories of hunting down all the past releases up to that point. Most of those record stores are now gone, but when I drive by where they used to be, I think of having picked up most of the mighty BOC catalogue there. Mirrors and Cultosaurus in that one, SEE in that one… So I was a high school freshman when I first heard BOC. I’m now zeroing in on the twilight of my work career. And BOC has been there the entire ride. I will be eternally grateful. |
