Epic Blue Oyster Cult! America's First Metal Band! So Melodic with Platinum Vocals! They Need to Be inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! \m/ \m/
Yes ! They need to be in the Hall of Fame - so many great albums and concerts . But don't forget about Steppenwolf , Mountain , or Blue Cheer , just to name some early heavy rock American bands .
Never really thought of these guys as a medal band though some songs do qualify, more like progressive hard rock in my humble opinion. As far as the RHOF goes it's almost like they'll let anybody but good bands in there
@@tednugentlives Abolutely! Blue Oyster Cult is Legandary in Their Selction of Band Members. I wish the Radio Stations would play more than 3 of Their Songs. I even Love the songs that were not Hits on the radio. \m/ \m/
There are many great songs: Veterans of the psychic wars Astronomy Black blade Don't fear the reaper The red & the black Workshop of the télescopes ETI Flaming telepaths
Buck " Dharma " Roeser will always be -------> In a League of His Own ! Truly a Wonder ✓ THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH ! A True Genius and Magnificent Guitarist !!! ♦️
After seeing BOC in concert a couple dozen times, I finally got to meet them in 2001. I had to thank Buck for all the guitar lessons over the years. Eric remembered me from a couple shows and Allen remembered my wife from a show where she got him to sign my Starfleet baseball cap while he was taking a break. It was a night I'll never forget.
Underrated song with great writing from Patti Smith. BOC without a doubt should be in the RR HOF!! Shout out to Kasim for his work with BOC!! Lastly "The Vigil" is one of their best!!
Kasim playing some "slap bass" that Randy Jackson played on the original version & later taught to Joe in a free lesson .... Buck, Richie & Kasim together here is magnificent ....
It is ✓ Mr. Dharma is a really good Guy ... I shook his hand a had a little chat after working the Show / Concert in 1980 ; The : BLACK - N - BLUE @ WHEELING WV. ( CIVIC CENTER ) a Real down to Earth Genius / Guitarist !!! Made My Evening , along with Mr. IOMMI , Mr. DIO , and the BKACK SABBATH Entourage !!! TRULY A WONDER ✓ THANKS MEN ! ♦️
BOC is still rippin' needless to say!! They just put on a great show for us in Everett, WA and the wife and I were blessed to see them burn out the night! Thank you Buck, Eric, Richie, Jules and Kasim for a fantastic night of killer rock!
bon dieu quel guitariste.....rory gallagher, ritchie blackmore, pat travers etc etc .vous faite partie MR BUCK DHARMA de mes guitariste préféré....ça prends aux trippes......merci merci
Absolutely awesome. I love the song Shooting Shark. I am so happy to hear these awesome guitar parts instead of a saxophone, as on the original recording. But the original albums are awesome nonetheless.
I first thought the lyrics on Vigil said they breed us in the dead of night but it says they greet us, but many abduction stories say they do more than say howdy. Buck Dharma is amazing and 76.
I can't ever remember how many times I have seen these guys. From the laser lights in the 70's to last year. Why do I keep coming back? Do I REALLY need to explain? Killer mix and sound.
I’m embarrassed to say that I had not heard this song before. But prior to seeing BOC in Tucson last Saturday, I used this video as a “preview” for the show! What an absolute gem of a song and so very well done!! Then, of course, they played it live at the concert and enjoyed it so much! Great song, great band!!
I’ve just checked their setlists from recent shows, and it looks like they don’t even play Shooting Shark anymore. I’m seeing them on November 18th. I’ll be really bummed if they don’t play this.
Seen them many many moons ago when they played at the Contra Costa county fairgrounds almost 20 years ago in Antioch CA.... It was during the fair in the middle of summer...our race team heard bucks boogie start playing and we all ran over to the stage and saw them getting down after the races were over.... We won our division in Sprint cars that night at the dirt track next door and got a surprise treat..... We found out later buck didn't want to play his set till the races were over, it would be too noisy and it would take away from his show and the fans that came to see the band.... Such a cool night..... We kicked ass on the track that night then got to see a bad ass show afterwards...... I will always remember that goofy guitar 🤣 he's had that for as long as I can remember and he also played it at the show we were at that night.... Such good memories.....
OMG! Richie Castellano! And then there's this song. MTV now has teen mom??? This song got some air play on MTV back in the day. HMMM. Who was always genius? BUCK! I love the lyrics t this song!
This comment brought a tear to my eye. Yes, you are somebody, as valid as anyone else on the planet. As someone who has been with Buck since our college days, I know that is what he’d say to you, too. Peace and love be with you….

Do not forget the legendary Kasim Sulton on bass. The level of talent onstage is epic.

What a band! What talent! 50+ years of excellence!
I graduated High school in 1974. Seen them many times. First time in '73. Part of the soundtrack of my life!
shooting shark is such a great song. so under appreciated.
The sound engineer is a master at his craft
Ditto!!!!
The Vigil!!! Probably the best BOC song of all time!!!🔥👍🏻
There are many great songs:
Veterans of the psychic wars
Astronomy
Black blade
Don't fear the reaper
The red & the black
Workshop of the télescopes
ETI
Flaming telepaths
dad played this song for me on a tape when I was about 8 years old; still as amazing even in my 30's . This; nosferatu and in thee
These guys present their music so brilliantly. clear, forceful, not overbearingly loud. And usually in a not big theatre for closeness.
How come every song i see them play live becomes an epic experience?
Buck " Dharma " Roeser will always be
-------> In a League of His Own !
Truly a Wonder ✓ THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH ! A True Genius and Magnificent Guitarist !!! ♦️
Man, Buck Dharma and Ritchie Castellano tear it up on Shooting Shark. WOW.
Never thought I'd get to see 'Shooting Sharks' played live. So glad I did!
This is one of the best live recordings of a performance set I have ever seen. Studio-quality, spot on performance, acoustics and vocals.
After seeing BOC in concert a couple dozen times, I finally got to meet them in 2001. I had to thank Buck for all the guitar lessons over the years. Eric remembered me from a couple shows and Allen remembered my wife from a show where she got him to sign my Starfleet baseball cap while he was taking a break. It was a night I'll never forget.

This right here folks is why Buck is the master!
Shout out to Jules and Kasim. Such fantastic musicianship - with groove and funk!
- Ed on the Ridge
Killer job on both songs! Mirrors is a very underrated album. Always glad when they do cuts from it!
Kasim playing some "slap bass" that Randy Jackson played on the original version & later taught to Joe in a free lesson .... Buck, Richie & Kasim together here is magnificent ....
Randy Jackson played bass on the original ?????!
Confirmed on the Randy Jackson question.
@@mickelknight thank you ! I always wondered what he ever did ...lol...then I found out he was a badass bass player for a lot of people !
What a great band. Started listening to BOC in “74”.
...ditto
Love Shooting Shark, can't understand why it's never mentioned in lists of BOC classics
Mainly because that list is about 60 songs deep ...
No pun intended but its a cult favorite. They played it live when I saw them last in 2017 and it was amazing live.
A great song.
Considering how much airplay it got back in the 80's, it really is a shame. Great song.

Buck Dharma you are the Man............... when I hear him play he sets the table for all before and after
Not a coincidence its sounding incredible. Kasim Sulton IS on bass.
BOC is still rippin' needless to say!! They just put on a great show for us in Everett, WA and the wife and I were blessed to see them burn out the night!
Thank you Buck, Eric, Richie, Jules and Kasim for a fantastic night of killer rock!
I was there...one of the best evenings of my life.
Saw them in Bristol VA a few days later. Fantastic show! They played The Vigil.
I was there. I've seen them 39 times !
This is the first time I've listened to them, I didn't know them. Music of the highest level, very good
Blue Oyster Cult is an amazing and complex band
Everything they record in the studio sounds as good or better live My favorite band
No one comes close
I love how Kasim's bass is brought forward in the mix. So punchy!
Best (non-Joe) bass player they've ever had in my estimation.
Kasim is a monster talent.
@@TZKeyzTry Utopia RA. Kasim and Todd are Showcased in Singring. Cult classic from 1977
bon dieu quel guitariste.....rory gallagher, ritchie blackmore, pat travers etc etc .vous faite partie MR BUCK DHARMA de mes guitariste préféré....ça prends aux trippes......merci merci
Absolutely awesome. I love the song Shooting Shark. I am so happy to hear these awesome guitar parts instead of a saxophone, as on the original recording. But the original albums are awesome nonetheless.
Incredible guitar work from both musicians. The whole band was spot on this evening!!+
The groove on this live version of Shooting Sharks makes my eyes water. Play it loud....sound is good!
The vigil. Love that freakin song.
Would love to see this entire show, excellent sound!
Nice camera work - good to see Buck's whole guitar and not just his strumming hand has many concert videos do.
I first thought the lyrics on Vigil said they breed us in the dead of night but it says they greet us, but many abduction stories say they do more than say howdy. Buck Dharma is amazing and 76.
gotta love the total mastery of swiss cheesing the riffs. BOC rulez
THE original Goth band
The bass line in this song is friggin ridiculous!!!
I can't ever remember how many times I have seen these guys. From the laser lights in the 70's to last year. Why do I keep coming back? Do I REALLY need to explain? Killer mix and sound.
The Vigil is such an epic song!
This is by far my most favorite performance by Blue Öyster Cult. I love Shooting Shark!
May GOD bless him with many more healthy years ahead!! BOC forever!
This performance speaks for itself. I have nothing to add.
Well said
That was so good ..... they got a groove on during Shooting Shark. Sound quality & playing on both was superb.
i love the layers and beauty of their music
Masterful
I’m embarrassed to say that I had not heard this song before. But prior to seeing BOC in Tucson last Saturday, I used this video as a “preview” for the show! What an absolute gem of a song and so very well done!! Then, of course, they played it live at the concert and enjoyed it so much! Great song, great band!!
I would pay any money to see them play this. Excellent camera work by the way.
I quite liked this song when I heard the studio version. Then I stumbled across this live version - and I loved it!
One of the best versions❤️
I actually prefer this version compared to the studio version. Buck's guitar is alot hotter and reaches further, amazing.
Excellent my friend, glad you are still playing headless guitars...I play mine everyday the "Harrower Guitar".
The legend lives on. "From NYC the amazing Blue Oyster Cult."
What a great live performance! Super stuff…
The Vigil is killer
The drummer is so groovin' - yeah, man!
I’ve just checked their setlists from recent shows, and it looks like they don’t even play Shooting Shark anymore. I’m seeing them on November 18th. I’ll be really bummed if they don’t play this.
Shooting Shark is one of my favorites
The Vigil! I am still waiting too Eric!
Ritchie......Unbelievable.....🎤🎸🎸🎸🎹🎸🥁🔥👊🙏
awesome great camera work , one of the best groups.
Ahead of it's time "Our lights are dim, our roads are crumbling, and we don't know what to do"
Buck, your the goat. Come back too Atlanta, me Jason and his wife have met you in person and we want to see you again!
goosebumps every time i watch this- i count myself lucky to have seen these versions live
Best BOC lineup I have seen in decades!
This is so very good
such a knockout performance
Amazing
I'm sorry but buck from blue oyster cult , one the very best guitar player missions on earth.....
No doubt about it - only Andy Powell from Wishbone Ash comes close . Been hearing Buck for 50 years before I could shave .
My favorite band ever 👍
Absolute best.
The blue oyster cult.i have been in love with this for a long fuckin time
my god this is lovely.
Song takes you on a journey, like many of there's
Está de poca madre la rola. Es mi favorita entre otras de esta exquisita banda Blue Oyster Cult.
I miss Kasim I thought he was a perfect fit for this later version of boc.
Sadly to say, that I never seen BOC. Now whenever this damn pandemic ends I hope they make a trip to NorCal and I will be sure to attend a BOC show.

Saw them a few years ago in Santa Cruz, on the beach. Not a bad way to spend a Friday evening
I just seen boc about a week ago in Virginia beach down at the beach doing a free concert
Gotta love the Swiss cheese guitar
Goose Bumps!
Seriously though, this is great. Buck has a nice voice. This is better than the sterile sounding 80s version.
This performance is so solid and then they top it off with turning buck loose with two or three time signature changes
Love this song!
OMG! Richie Castellano! And then there's this song. MTV now has teen mom??? This song got some air play on MTV back in the day. HMMM. Who was always genius? BUCK! I love the lyrics t this song!
This looks and sounds like a tight band - that enjoys playing with each other!
We are nobody, but we love you guys!
Thats what makes you special!
This comment brought a tear to my eye. Yes, you are somebody, as valid as anyone else on the planet. As someone who has been with Buck since our college days, I know that is what he’d say to you, too. Peace and love be with you….
Ritchie with a smokin solo then Buck steps up and shows him how to do it and remain as smooth as silk.
Beautiful song
Serious "earworm" material here!
adoro essa música
Awesome!
Never heard this recording before!
One of my favorite BOC Songs
Bellissimi Video e Ottima Musica , Come sempre Bruno !!!!
me thinks that this is the Best BOC song ever !
souvent oublié." buck darma " quel guitariste...j'adore
Awesome!!
Fine job, y'all
12:55 Yeah... (speechless...)
This song helped me through tough times with a girlfriend back in the early 80s
this intro is so good !!!
Buck,as calm as ever. 👍
Yeah, the man has nothing to prove.........
Man, Buck taught Ritchie very well!!
I want the Bouchard Brothers back 😞
Albert and Joe the legendary bottom end sound of B.O.C. !
The "Backbone" of BOC for soooooo many years!
But that was yesterday, and yesterday is gone .
Wow!!!!
