wanted a book and none of my interlibrary loans are in so I just wandered into the university library's fiction section to pick something up at random, and notice they've got quite a Michael Moorcock selection.

so I picked up The Revenge of the Rose as they don't think I've read it before, and decide to actually read the author biography and I knew he'd written for hawkwind and blue oyster called but this says he performed with them? What the eff instrument did he play? o.0 Is he on any albums?

He did Black Blade with Blue Oyster Cult and I think of you grab Warriors on the Edge of Time there's a song or two he's on

I *think* he just did vocals, but that's not a good source

Canageek reshared this.

@silverwizard Black Blade is one of my favorite Blue Öyster Cult songs, it's pretty obviously written about alrick so I kind of assumed that was one of the ones he wrote

if he sang on it then I've already heard him then

in reply to Canageek

I don't know if it's all recordings, but yeah

And yeah, I love Black Blade!

in reply to Canageek

that's a good question! I knew he wrote for blue oyster cult too, but I only just heard about hawkwind recently, I'd be interested to know what he played too
