“Avast me hearties…”
Albert Bouchard’s Imaginos trilogy has mostly involved re-imagined versions of old Blue Öyster Cult songs but it’s a wonderful new song Mountain Of Madness that forms the centrepiece of the trilogies final album, Imaginos III: Mutant Reformation. A collaboration between ex-BÖC member Bouchard and current member Richie Castellano, this is a glorious manfeels adventure on the seven seas. Mountain Of Madness is a glorious AOR tune with a piratey sway, Kansas-style fiddle and a soulful, melodic vocal performance from Castellano. The Imaginos series has been one of the most delightful surprises of recent years and it’s hit a peak with Mountain Of Madness. I love it!
HEAVY METAL OVERLOAD 
I have yet to get any of the Imaginos, but I will.
Cheers.

There not perfect albums but any means but some great stuff on them. They’re kinda charming. First one is the best.

That is some good progressive rock. That was the cool thing about B.O.C., they were capable of hard rocking and cool prog rock, often combing the two.

I was hoping it was about the H.P Lovecraft story where men and dogs get cruelly dismembered in Arctic wastes, to the sound of jaunty AOR.

Yep, you’d think they could have at least stuck a gibbous moon in there.
