I believe that's probably about the long and the short of it.  I think
Pearlman felt that there wouldn't be any market (or even a record
deal) for such a weird thing, if it didn't have the name Blue Oyster
Cult on it.  As it turns out, they got it released, but then the
record company and the band dropped the album in the mud and left it
to sink.  Sigh.

What was it that Eric said on AOL?  "If you want to hear Imaginos
tunes, go to a Brain Surgeons concert."
