Extraterrestrial Live is the third live album by American rock band Blue Öyster Cult, released in 1982 by Columbia Records. It primarily documents the band's 1981 tour in support of the “Fire of Unknown Origin” studio album, but also includes two tracks recorded in 1980 during the Mirrors Tour and the North American leg of Black Sabbath's Heaven & Hell Tour. Midway through the 1981 “Fire of Unknown Origin” tour, the band fired drummer and founding member Albert Bouchard, replacing him with roadie Rick Downey. Of Blue Öyster Cult's three live albums, “Extraterrestrial Live” is the one to have.
This live album, partially recorded on Blue Öyster Cult's home base of Long Island, contains the band's biggest hits, "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" (making its second live appearance) and "Burnin' For You", the Doors cover “Roadhouse Blues”, as well as longtime concert favorites like "Cities On Flame," "The Red And The Black," and "Godzilla." The album reached in May 1982 #29 in Billboards Top 200 album chart.
