Agents Of Fortune is considered to be the breakthrough album from Blue Oyster Cult. I agree. Their first three albums are awesome. Not doubt about that. But Agents Of Fortune was their first commercial album, and that's what always seems to do the trick. The song (Don't Fear) The Reaper was a big hit, and still gets lots of radio airplay to this day. It also has appeared in several movies, such as Halloween and Miracle. But this is not the only standout track on this album. The song E.T.I. (Extra Terrestrial Intelligence) was also a hit, and really rocks. Other standout tracks are This Ain't The Summer Of Love, The Revenge Of Vera Gemini, Sinful Love, Morning Final, Tenderloin, and Debbie Denise. True Confessions isn't bad, either. That's the whole album I just named. What I like about this album and most BOC albums is the wide variety of songs. Hard songs, softer songs, and everything in between. I also like the fact that over the years BOC has alternated between singers. Just about everybody in the band sings songs as the lead singer. I've been reading some mixed reviews on this album, and how some people don't care for such songs as Morning Final and Debbie Denise. You just have to listen to these songs a few times, and maybe you'll start liking them. I recommend this album highly. It's a classic, not just the album that has Reaper on it. Get it. You won't be disappointed.
