Joe Bouchard, the original bassist for the legendary Blue Öyster Cult, plays on all their most famous songs like “(Don’t Fear) The Reaper,” “Godzilla” and “Burnin’ for You.” Yet Bouchard has not been a member of BOC since 1986.
He then formed a solo band and another group called Blue Coupe, featuring his brother Albert and Dennis Dunaway.

On his album Playin’ History, Joe has tipped the hat heavily to the past. The opening track “Renaissance Man” sounds like something that could have been included on Tyranny & Mutation or Secret Treaties. Heck, the entire album has an early 1970s BOC vibe, which is pretty darn cool if you ask me! “52 Agents of Fortune” is a throwback to BOC for sure, the title referring to the band’s classic album Agents of Fortune.
If you’re a fan of Blue Oyster Cult then you are a fan of this album. Joe does not copy, or even try to sound like BOC. On this album it just so happens that is what came out this time around.
