Blue Oyster Cult Signed Drumhead White-coated drumhead, 15.5″ in diameter, signed in red felt tip by all five members of Blue Öyster Cult: Eric Bloom, Buck Dharma, Allen Lanier, Albert Bouchard, and Joe Bouchard. Hand-lettered in the center by the collector, “Blue Oyster Cult, 9-1-79.” In very good condition, with expected signs of heavy use. Blue Öyster Cult played the Jacksonville Coliseum on September 1, 1979, with the Ian Hunter Band opening, on the tour supporting Mirrors, their sixth studio album, released that summer. The head preserves the band’s classic lineup, which recorded signature songs including ‘(Don’t Fear) The Reaper’ and ‘Godzilla’ and remained intact until Albert Bouchard’s departure in 1981. From the collection of a Jacksonville, Florida, limousine operator who provided transportation for touring artists throughout North Florida and southern Georgia in the late 1970s and early 1980s; he often obtained used drumheads from the bands’ touring crews and had the members sign them.
