"I’ve got a fever, and the only prescription is more greased-up cub scouts…er, um, I mean cowbell! COWBELL!"

[via “The Colbinator”] I knew that Michael “Bad Touch Scout Troop

Leader” Jackson owned the rights to a large chunk of the Beatles’

catalogue, but didn’t know that he had a 50% share in Blue Oyster Cult’s

Don’t Fear the Reaper.

Here’s a list of the other songs for which he is half-owner:

  • ’65 Love Affair, Paul Davis
  • Alone Again, Naturally, Gilbert O’Sullivan

  • Here Comes the Night, Them
  • Hit Me With Your Best Shot, Pat Benatar
  • Hush, Deep Purple
  • I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry, Hank Williams Sr.
  • Let It Ride, Bachman-Turner Overdrive
  • Long Tall Sally, Little Richard
  • Positively 4th Street, Bob Dylan
