Soft White Underbelly was the initial name of the American band that would become Blue Öyster Cult (often abbreviated BÖC). BÖC would later occasionally use this name in the 1970s and 1980s to play small club gigs around the US and the UK. Formed in 1967 in the vicinity of Stony Brook University on Long Island, New York, at the prompting of critic and manager Sandy Pearlman, the inital line-up comprised guitarist Buck Dharma, drummer Albert Bouchard, keyboardist Allen Lanier, singer Les Braunstein, and bassist Andrew Winters.
