Definitely not perfect but it's the best looking this performance will ever look, guaranteed! Nothing but quality from metalnrocknroll4eva \w/

BLUE OYSTER CULT kills it every time-super underrated band that live is stellar
Underrated? Not at all, rather misunderstood, it's a band for the musical elite audience, the real ones from the 70's... Life, death, the Universe lies in B.O.C.
One of the best bands I’ve seen live and I have seen them all
Awesome musicians
First heard this song on the Heavy Metal soundtrack. That whole soundtrack rocks
All i say is Blue Lamp - Stevie Nicks ;) What a silksmooth breeze thru the ears
Opern arms
Yeah me too. I won it from KLOS by being the first to phone in with the answer to a trivia question. This song blew my head off
Was an amazing movie.. saw it when it first came out, in the theatre. Used to read the magazine all the time.. precursor to all the graphic novels, really. Top tier artists: Moebius,.. Frank Frazzetta...
"All of You" by Don Felder.. I Love that song. But I can't hear it without picturing Aliens snorting space cocaine and flying around the galaxy 😁
Just one big point, Buck Dharma has a connection with that guitar (in a different style) comparable to that of David Gilmour in his ability to capture your soul and send it soaring somewhere.
A form of rapture.
An under appreciated and gifted man.
Been in love with BOC since the 70’s and haven’t ever stopped.
Awesome version, just when you think it can't get more intense, they step it up AGAIN! Truly epic and exhilarating! Thanks for the vid.
Buck Dharma is the most underrated guitarist of all time in my books.
Agree with that..and Rik Emmett!
This song was written for the movie "Heavy Metal" from the early 80's
BOV FOREVER!👍👍👍🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
For those of us who got to see BOC live it is something you never forget, masters at giving a real show no gimmicks or running around just pure talent being expressed through their instruments. Fire of Unknown Origin is one of the greatest albums ever written, and I strongly suggest to all who reads this comment to go out and buy it and i guarantee you will not regret it
I wore out several copies of that album. I agree one of the best pure rock albums of all time 🤘
Yes it is a great great album….but many people will still never get to hear it!!
Almost tragic!
They are amazing in concert.
Got to see them live 2 weeks apart back in the mid-80's on their Godzilla tour, they killed it both times! First show they had the giant animated Godzilla behind them which was cool but for the second show the venue didn't have tall enough ceilings so no Godzilla but they out on such a great show anyway we didn't miss him.
@@7thkansascav468 I always loved the drum solo in Godzilla ,the drummer would slip into a Godzilla mask with strobes going. Always one of my favorite parts of there show. Thinking back to these concerts really makes me smile.
Btw, Buck improvises on his solos in every live show. No two versions are the same
Nothing sounds like Blue Öyster Cult. A band With a style of their own and lyrics that are totaly out of space. In my opinion the greatest of all. PERIOD.
Literally out of space
Ditto Buddy
For me, this is top 10 all time
Song was co-written by one of my favourite novelists, Michael Moorcock, who also did songs with Hawkwind.
I grew up reading everything I could find by Moorcock. The first "Eternal Champion" is one of my favorites...
I discovered this tune in the early 80's, a couple of years before I discovered Mike Moorcock, who quickly became, and still is, my favorite writer. Imagine how pleased I was when I found out this song was not only co-written by him, but was about the Champion Eternal. Essentially it's Erekose lamenting his fate before the events of Quest for Tanelorn.
@@JimmyDaKoikEric Bloom performed this with Michael Morecock at Dragonfest in Atlanta years ago.
The only reaction channel that has done this BOC Song....
Great reaction and comments
One of my favorite and underrated bands...A shame they aren't in the Rock and Roll fame
Thanks Again..Keep Rocking 🤟🤟
The RRHF is a joke. They put Madonna and Motown artists in and skip great rock bands like BOC and Bad Company. It took forever to get Deep Purple and Yes in there while Notorious BIG and Whitney Houston are in. They are fine and talented performers no doubt, but they are not Rock And Roll!!
not so , Kel n Rich did it two years ago
✌🤘🖖
Who the fuck are Kel n Rich🤔.....
Oh yea...I remember...The guy that look at his ugly wife the whole time the song was playing 🖕
@@anthonyc9131 well, that was uncalled for.
@@tomwoliver Absolutely right! At this point it is a badge of honor for groups such as BOC, Supertramp, Kansas and others not to be inducted into that libtard bastion of crap.
One of the best solo performances ....Buck Dharma is a beast.
This song is absolute quality and originality
"From one war to another, my influence is always present." --The green orb from Heavy Metal (1981).
Buck Dharma is so talented, doesn't get the credit he deserves
The lyrics for this song were written by Michael Moorcock, author of the Elric of Melnibone series. A truly masterful song.
Saw BOC in 1979 and 1980 for $7/ ticket.Ausome shows. Had privilege to see them again in 2015. Still had it going on.
SO DID I!!!! And I can't wait to see them in a month!
Saw them in 1980 on the Black & Blue Tour (w/Sabbath), and that was $14. Unreal for those days! But yeah, Sabbath & BOC, with openers Riot and Molly Hatchet, at Memorial Stadium in Seattle. Last concert they had there for about 10 years because the neighbors got pissed off at the volume. Next show they had there was Billy Joel. ha ha haaa They also switched the layout so the stage was pointing AWAY from the residential area.
@@charliemac64I would have liked to have seen that concert, two of metal's titans.🤘
saw them 94 times in 4 states....oh now that i'm in florida is 96 times in 5 states....my all time favorite band....17 albums....dig deeper not just the hits....
I saw these guys on my Golden Birthday(24) 1990 at a club in Crystal Minnesota called the Iron Horse. They rocked in such a small venue.
That sounds awesome!!! I've seen 'em in the Kingdome, and I've seen 'em in a smallish venue, and by FAR, the smaller venues kick ass!
The Bouchard brothers, Joe (bass) and Albert (drums, etc) formed the rhythm section and they are both exceptional musicians.
FANTASTIC! Magnifique! POWERFUL! Blue Oyster Cult! Way underrated band. Trippy and at times heavy as f**k. People always mention Black Sabbath, old school Aerosmith, Pentagram, and stuff like that when talking about the heavier school of 70's-80's hard rock. Blue Oyster Cult is that hidden gem that you need to discover on your own.
About time someone did this song! Thank you! I love this song.
What the song is really about :
Michael Moorcock With Blue Öyster Cult
''Moorcock wrote the lyrics to three album tracks by the American band Blue Öyster Cult: "Black Blade", referring to the sword Stormbringer in the Elric books, "Veteran of the Psychic Wars",
showing us Elric's emotions at a critical point of his story (this song
may also refer to the "Warriors at the Edge of Time", which figure
heavily in Moorcock's novels about John Daker; at one point his novel The Dragon in the Sword they call themselves the "veterans of a thousand psychic wars"), and "The Great Sun Jester",
about his friend, the poet Bill Butler, who died of a drug overdose.
Moorcock has performed live with BÖC (in 1987 at the Atlanta, GA Dragon Con Convention).''
That solo is actually not in the studio version of the song. As far as I know, they only played this version of the song on this tour. Buck has always been a masterful guitarist who has never quite gotten his just due.
"Never quite gotten his just due" ... Just like Blue Oyster Cult in general! Awesome heavy band! Should have stood side-by-side with Black Sabbath, imo.
Buck never plays exactly the same solo every time. He's a master of improvising and on some nights when he's really on he'll send you well beyond the earth's orbit.
Right on. At a point when the tempo picked up I thought, this is different, as the lad said "wow, how do you remember a solo like that?"
Well, um , ... loosely, see it just kyna flows out, like.
This version (more or less) is on the "Extraterrestrial Live" album - I never get tired of this
Faux, ce solo à été jouer à Paris au pavillon Baltard quand le boc est passé en France à Paris, vous deconnez complément
Saw Blue Oyster Cult in Lancaster Pennsylvania. Great, great show. They rocked it out
I was there
Great Show as always
Nice venue
The Amazing
Blue Oysters Cult
One of the greatest performances ever..
this is the way how hard rock and roll has to be played, here you can listen to one of the heaviest riffs in rock history, you cannot get more metal than this, simply Blue Oyster Cult kick ass.
This is a perfect example why Buck Dharma is my favorite guitarist. What a great solo. I saw them do this live in Long Island when this album came out (as Soft White Underbelly) and this video doesn't show it but they had two guys they called the funky monks in hooded robes on either side of the stage playing the kettle drums for those real chunky drum sounds. It was also right after they fired the original (and greatest IMO) drummer and they hired their road manager for drums. He was very good but they were never the same after that.
I saw them around 15 years ago in a small bar in Concord Ca. It held maybe 100 people. They listed the show as 'Soft White Underbelly". BOC liked to use that name for small venues. There were 3 of the original band members and they used a young drummer. They played this song last and I couldn't hear until the following morning. Shedmen.
The amps were far to big for such a small, rectangular room. It reminded me of The Cow Palace when we saw Z Z Top and Ted Nugent. Dusty Hill and Billy Gibbons each had 4 foot wide and 6 foot tall amplifiers stacked in two rows of four.
It's the perfect example that you don't have to be hard/fast to be great 😉🤩
Just carry a mood and a message 😉
Perfect performance. Outstanding choice. Underrated BOC track.
Worlds biggest underground band. This was from the 1981 concert in Hollywood Florida simulcast on a local radio station and cable television. I still have the original cassette recording from that broadcast on my desk. I can't count how many times I've played that tape. Recently was able to purchase a DVD of that broadcast. It still blows me away.
I saw them once on New Years Eve back in the 70's. They were at the Cow Palace in Oakland. At midnight a 40' Godzilla came out, bright red eyes, they sang Godzilla. Then I lucked out in 1990, they played at a bar near me. They were billed as "Soft White Underbelly". Maybe 50 people at the bar. Couldn't hear for 2 days. Shedmen56
Soft White Underbelly was their name when they first started in 1967.
I've seen this band more than any other band. This performance is a perfect example why. They fucking wail in concert.
And they still bring it. Check 'em out while you still can! ON TOUR FOREVER!!!
I may be two years late; however, thank you for this video....
Three drummers here, two on smaller drums flanking Ric Downey. Makes for a great rhythm bed. Of course, Buck is on fire here. I was given the leeway to
suggest all the performances here. This version is quite different than the studio recording.
This is the song that made me fall in love with BOC.
This looks like the Fire of Unknown Origin tour (which I went to). I remember the drums sounding much bigger there in the room.
Was listening to them big time back in the late 80’s /early 90’s!
They have many great songs, & always excellent musicianship ..no on stage antics!
Saw them in 1991 in Danville Illinois for $14.50, still have the ticket stub. One of my favorite bands from my college days and still fire them up on Spotify every now and then.
Great song and a top 5 guitar solo for me
Saw them in February 1993 with my girlfriend. It was in a club but they rocked it. Was deaf for three days. And this one of the top three guitar solos of all time
Very astute comments about PTSD, I also think this song is about that, with a Sci/fi spin.
At the time this was written, late ‘70’s, we were just starting to comprehend the problems many Vietnam vets were going through. I don’t think the syndrome was even called PTSD yet. But this is a very powerful song, lyrically and musically, and totally relevant to it’s time.
every time I hear this song....i think of the solo being the Psychic Battle.
This and more are based on the writings of Micheal Moorcock. One of my faves. The Great Sun Jester and Black Blade are two more that you will enjoy. Read the Elric Saga.
Love your show
BOC is Amazing
You guys rock
and this is back in the days when what you did is what you heard. the quality live is just insane for the era.
BLUE OYSTER CULT, "VETERAN OF PSYCHIC WAR" I said it 1973, after attending my first concert. Guitarest "BUCK" DHARMA OF BLUE OYSTER CULT IS ONE OF THE BEST EVER...48 YEARS LATER, NOTHING CHANGED...LOVE WATCHING THIS CONCERT FOOTAGE!
My favourite guitar solo. Ever since I first heard it.
From the movie "Heavy Metal", it's amazing if you haven't seen it!! 😃
this is my favourite rock song of all time , bucks solo is epic, long live BOC
Always, awesome reaction, amazing song, ....Peace.... hui hou...
Love the military/marching cadence of the drums through out the song. Holds it together seamlessly.
Buck shreds .. go see them live if you can... Great show
The ONLY way to truly appreciate and enjoy BOC is Live! They have always over delivered on their live shows! Immensely better than their studio albums! One of the best shows I’ve ever been to!
What a ride!!!
Never watched anyone react to their live stuff. Extraterrestrial Live is my favorite album from the group and I'm pushing 60 years old and still love it! Thanks for this! So HAPPY to watch other people who GET IT! Know that in 1982 I was doing EXACTLY what you're doing in this reaction, headphones, volume to 11, just letting the sound wash over me...and I've never stopped. lol. One of my favorite bands, my favorite album, and one of my two favorite cuts from that album, the other being Don't Fear the Reaper. This band is still touring up and down the east coast making music, to this day. Staying power. Glad to see a new generation listening! Thanks for this guys. Makes me damned happy.
Can remember listening to this when "Heavy Metal" movie in 1981. After 41 years later they still give me the chills.
So glad you guys are doing so much böc! big props to dave.
Saw this show at the Boston Garden. I think they were touring with Foghat on that one.
Buck Dharma. Kind of melts your face off, doesn't he?
Buck most underrated best live show few got to see not many around left to tell about the original laser light show before the Government banned it back in 1977
My fav song and very good react
goosebumps during guitar solo....the AMAZING BLUE OYSTER CULT!
I have every BOC album. Been listening to them since I was a kid. One of my fav bands, and I'm a 57 year old disabled Air Force Vet. I still listen to them.
Buck Dharma is one of my favorite guitarist
boc is the sci fi band of rnr. they are not heavy metal per se. but they transform the mood so ethereal. theyre compositions are quite different from most other bands
BOC ain’t no joke. 🔥
My favorite band buck can play with the best of them rock on BOC
Shout out to Nick and Dave! More BOC!
This album has a fantastic variety to it's songs... some very progressive stuff, some almost synth pop and a AOR smash hit all jumbled up.
Buck Dharma is a TOP guitarist. B.O.C. rocks
This song showcases the ability of guitarists of that time to be able to actually craft a solo, instead of just shedding a solo and blowing their wad every time, these guys took the song into consideration, they developed a solo that fit musically & spiritually into the song which in my opinion takes a lot more skill than just speed riffing every time.
I'm so glad you guys did the live version.
The scars are on the inside.
Hands down, one of the best guitar solos in history.
It's a crying shame that nobody except fans ever mentions Buck Dharma when talking about great guitarists.
One of their best songs ! Everybody reacts to "Don't fear the Reaper" but this one is awesome along with "Black Blade"
Black Blade also written by M.M.
Each and every one of us is such a "veteran." Existence itself is a battleground on which all beings live out their incarnations.
Quanto um músico tem que estudar para fazer um solo desse? Oh my God! 😮😮😮
Best. Version. Ever. of this classic jam.
They put this down on a Album which is fantastic they do a brilliant rendition of "Road House Blues" and Joan Crawford is brill too.
Did see Black and Blue tour
Dave rocks!!!!
If I'm not wrong, the drummer was new. He had only been with the band about two months.
This video is a few months after Albert was kicked out of the group. Rick Downey(BOC roadie, drum tech guy) did a good job but you can't replace Albert!
Buck Dharma is the best rock guitarist this 55 year old rocker has ever seen play live.
The drummer was a last minute replacement for Al Bouchard whom they had just fired. This was maybe the third or fourth time he was on the skins for them.
He started on 22nd August 1981 ... I was there.
He was a roadie who set up Albert's drums.
Fantastic tour.
Just a fantastic soundtrack saw this movie in the theatre in 1980 I think.
That song is bad ass.
If you want a true venture into their stage presence, try listening to "Then came the last days of may" from their Long Day's Night Concert from 2002 in Chicago on the Summer Solstice. Guitar Magic. I saw them 3 years ago and met Buck Dharma. He is the most down to earth musicians I have ever met. Kind human, great guy. A national treasure. These guys are still great in concert. A must see live.
The solo on that night's version of TCTLDOM is absolutely blistering. Just when you think it's amazing that anyone can play so accurately at that speed, they crank it up again. And he makes it look so easy. Buck Dharma is a guitar god.
its about ptsd of the vienam vets that came home after the war..
COC had the best Lazer light show ever. Saw them in KC and it was a show for all of time. Amazing band and great reaction. You ought to watch the movie heavy metal. This song along with a lot other great ones is in that movie.
Thin Lizzy is the best concert I've seen
One of the best versions of this great song (the solo is killer as it's not in the original studio album version of the track). I also came across Blue Öyster Cult via the 'Heavy Metal' animated movie which came out in 1981, but when I first saw it, it was about 1991. I thought it was a great film with an equally awesome soundtrack (that is unless you detest rock and metal).
booo ya!!!!
one of my top ten guitar solo's live on tape i have ever, ever listened to and seen.
fucking epic.
This song was co-written by Don "Buck Dharma" Roeser and English author Michael Moorcock. It was an extension of Moorcock's ELRIC novels. It was actually composed for and used in the 1981 animated feature film HEAVY METAL. It was not intended as a commentary of the inability of the non-Veteran to comprehend or understand the problems of the Veteran, though it can be used as such, due to the nature of the lyrics being so other-worldly and graphic. Trust me, being a Veteran gives me a certain draw to this song.
Nope. The writing credits soley belong to Moorcock and Eric Bloom.
