One of most underrated bands. Some of rocks biggest hits no body will forget: reaper, burning for you and Godzilla. These guys were ahead of their time. BOC was one of my first concerts. When I was 16 back in 81 they stopped in Albuquerques and played at the old Tingley Coliseum. On of the best concert that stopped in here . They rated up there with Rush Ted Nuget Ozzie and Jethro Tull. As a kid you could afford to go to a concert back then.
so true - and some of us are only discovering because some algorithm has 'thought' about them and their likes. . .whoa what a world, but you're right. . .good stuff
What's really remarkable is that Buck never seems to play the same solo. Always something a little different within the contextvof the song. Gifted and we've been so lucky to hear him.
That isn't remarkable... it's easy for any guitar player to do. What would be remarkable is if he could make it sound the same every time. THAT takes talent. Meandering around on the fret-board isn't remarkable at all. And yeah, I play professionally.
Are you saying there is no Godzilla, why the hell have I spent the last 60 years under the bed scared of a gigantic sea monster? Oh, no it was worse than that.
I'm 56 years old and I been listening to BOC since I was in Jr High!!!! I remember being in class my second day of Jr high, siting behind Buba Jenkins and he's wearing a BOC concert shirt. I'm like what the fuck is Blue Oyster Cult? Well after I found out about them I was hard core BOC fanatic!!!!Straight up rock n roll all my life. Black Sabbath and Blue Oyster Cult!!
Why do certain loud G-list musicians claim Nirvana copied portions of this song for “smells like teen spirit? Wtf , 2 songs don’t sound anything alike besides way drums kick in very beginning. The latest g-list superstar was ultra talented , Uber famous , “Ex-Keyboardist for Marilyn Manson” this confused clown calls himself Madonna . Anyway he posted this song & nirvana song & actually wrote “F -ck you Kurt Cobain, you fkn thief” ? Wtf? I don’t get it ? Anybody else see it?
@darthmaul3525you could say the same thing about “smoke on the water” or “cinnamon girl” at what point does it end? As an actual guitar player I only play h things that sound fun in the moment and Later double check I’m not ripping anyone off which is %100 what Kurt did as well, you can’t copy chords the finished result determines what is the same or not. Nothing the same and at this point you could say ALL music is Just sounds to animals
I was born one year before Godzilla graced us with his presence. I have seen every movie and collect figures of him. Great band & great song. Watshi Wa Gojira Ga Dalsuki!
@Ángel the halfbreed 1955 ? First movie, two years before I had arrived as David. Love ❤️ This jam. The Japanese couldn't be more proud. Godzilla the resulting monster Of A-bomb warfare. If they Only knew the folly of war!
probably one of the coolest rythmic bridges at 3:00 that there ever was. that awesome riff only happens once in the whole song. Wish they had a whole song with that groove.
I.just watched the Godzilla movie with Raymond Burr on Svengoolie and had to look up this song. This is a great version of Godzilla. I have been a fan since the early 70's. Still going strong! 💜😁
That subtle guitar feedback as the song kicks off is such a nice touch. Could be used in Foley art for a Godzilla flick. Probably when he tears down a suspension bridge.
Saw them in the 70's, can't remember the year and that's understandable if you know what I mean. Saw one of my favorite ROCK bands live in Boston. Thanks for shareing.
Legit talent gotta say I likeeeeeeeee allot great live performance truly one of the best everything about it harmonizing guitar feel.. brings back good music really professional loved it
Was a fan of this song and BOC ever since I first heard it in the mid seventies when I was a scrawny farm boy teenager. A lot of things have changed since then but my taste in music hasn't.
Work ethic has been incredibly timeless! Secret treaties will Never be topped !!! I put the boc sign around w Germany early 80s andsprayed it on the hood of my 76mercury runabout! I got laid in that hatchback, I had boc playing maybe that's why, damn! A simpler world 🌎...
A paralyzing monster riff fitting for the title and a helluva opening riff at that! Thats creativity!🤘 hearing that just gives you that sense that some 💩s about to go down!🤘
Seen BOC in Denver the night black Sabbath cancelled on the black and blue tour! Ears rang for a week! Denver still has the noise ordnance law from that night! The friend and I still start talking shows with that one!
I worked at a DA’s Office for 5.5 years outside Philly. Every Monday morning I started off with this song to make sure everyone was awake, and to catch up with what the ‘monsters’ had done over the weekend. These guys held up well. ✝️🩷🌸😆🦍🦍🦍🦍🦍🦍
Don’t know much ab blue oyster cult but I love to think writing this they were like ‘yo that giant lizard is kinda cool, here’s a song ab him with some awesome guitar licks’

@@basedbear1605 Well ya know, folks use words out of context all the time. Looks like it was a 'fun' concert though.
@@One-z6y Um.... ok?
@@basedbear1605"and yeah, i play professionally" you're not buck dharma though are you?
@@technerdbird No, and I thank God for that. Boomers suck.
The old men still have it. Rock on forever!
they hit a groove and stick with it. . .intensify, and beam it!
The most perfect rock and roll tune of all time!!! Fun, nonsense that kicks ass!!!!

AMAZING ONE OF AMERICA'S FINEST BANDS!
indeed
Amen! That’s why I have seen them over 30 times!
Of all times.. and Uriah heap
I love how Blue Oyster Cult just casually created a theme song for Godzilla that’s somehow more iconic than the 1954 original theme.

Dopo di loro i metallica hanno fatto the call of chtulu con le chitarre che riproducevano il verso di un mostro 📞🖤👍😈

No way in heaven you're THAT old, Jesus, good lord dude, you must be grateful to see his evolution through the years
@Ángel the halfbreed 1955 ?
First movie, two years before I had arrived as David. Love ❤️
This jam. The Japanese couldn't be more proud. Godzilla the resulting monster
Of A-bomb warfare. If they
Only knew the folly of war!
Godzilla- King of the Kaiju
Blue Oyster Cult is bad ass Rock and Roll ! Their concerts are excellent !
Have seen em 3Xs...NEVER a bad show.. Buck is one of the BEST GUITARISTS OUT THERE!!!
probably one of the coolest rythmic bridges at 3:00 that there ever was. that awesome riff only happens once in the whole song. Wish they had a whole song with that groove.
Crisp, Clear, and excellent recording of this tune !
this might just be my favourite live version of the song. they all look like they're having so much fun
Funking Band Criminally Underrated!!!
One of my top 20 bands ever. These guys sound fantastic
Liked them before, love them now. Such survivors and makes me appreciate their talent every time I watch/hear them
And Buck still have dem chops!
I love this band.. Adding Richie Constallano was a great move. He is versatile.
Greetings from Finland to one of my all time favorite bands that's still going strong.
Right on
Great SOUND!!! The sound mixer did an awesome job!!! These guys are badass!!
All the vocals right fucking on. Harmonies are great.
One of the most badass songs ever, loved it when they used it in the 2019 Godzilla movie so perfectly.
I.just watched the Godzilla movie with Raymond Burr on Svengoolie and had to look up this song. This is a great version of Godzilla. I have been a fan since the early 70's. Still going strong! 💜😁
GODZILLA is coming again on Svengoolie this Saturday October 22, 2023. Sven is have double features during the month of October!
What kind of axe is the leed guitar player “Buck” playing? i saw boc in 83 at a county fair in MI. Best show ever by far not even close!
It’s a Steinberger with a Swiss cheese pattern. He calls it his “Cheeseberger”.
Crisp, Clean, AWESOME!!!!
Man,
That was great! Still killing it guys after all these years!
That tone is still there ... So cool!
That subtle guitar feedback as the song kicks off is such a nice touch. Could be used in Foley art for a Godzilla flick. Probably when he tears down a suspension bridge.

Nothing short of magnificent song for song 54 years young nobody can rock like these guys

Such a badass song
Never get tired this song
A paralyzing monster riff fitting for the title and a helluva opening riff at that! Thats creativity!🤘 hearing that just gives you that sense that some 💩s about to go down!🤘
They sound great.
Love this song!

Awesome performance!!!
Saw these guys in 1977 In Indianapolis. Was killer. Had the coolest laser show
Chris I also saw boc in 77' before the feds cut the Lazers ,lol ! In New Orleans Louisiana USA Earth.later rob
Excelente.
I saw these guys when they were the warm up band for Uriah Heep in Philly back in 1975 !!
Fantastic riff 🍺🥃🤘👍
I've been a big fan of Godzilla since I was 12 years old and I still watch the movie today on Tubi. Long live Godzilla

Musicians influence other musicians...Always have and Always will...
Pure American Band, pure Song!!!!!!!
Bloom & Buck

BEST LIVE VIDEO SINCE SEEING & HEARING THEM BACK IN THE 70'S
Turns out Big G loves this tune. Puts him in his stomp the shit outta everything mood😜
Seen BOC in Denver the night black Sabbath cancelled on the black and blue tour! Ears rang for a week! Denver still has the noise ordnance law from that night! The friend and I still start talking shows with that one!
possibly THE finest moment in WORLD rock.
Great band can't wait to see them in 2 weeks
"My God" as he looks in on them. Great drumming
Just saw them here in Alaska. Amazing
Every album every song none better than BOC
I worked at a DA’s Office for 5.5 years outside Philly. Every Monday morning I started off with this song to make sure everyone was awake, and to catch up with what the ‘monsters’ had done over the weekend. These guys held up well. ✝️🩷🌸😆🦍🦍🦍🦍🦍🦍
How the fuck is BOC not in the R&R hall of fame?
I fucking agree! They should have been inducted in the year Black Sabbath was inducted ! Remember the Black & Blue concert and movie?
They don't need it. They're in their own category.
They are overqualified.
Who tf takes RnR hof seriously anyway
@@johnecker4217I attended the tour stop on black and blue in oregon state. Great great tour! Dio with Sabbath incredible!
Imagine playing that song for 30 years.
Much longer than that.
Man this song is cool as fook!
Was on front row.
Caught a Buck guitar pick.
The guy next to me told me Buck was his favorite guitarist.
I immediately gave him the pic.
Soft White Underbelly .... I love it!!!!
Just a great, great band.
Saw them in the 70s in Rockford Illinois..at the Rockford Speedway. Prefaced by J Geils, Foghat etc. followed by Nugent…Aerosmith was the final act..
Dammm, that was some lineup!! (except forget Nugent)
@@sherylF5610What?! Ted Nugent was completely kickass. And now he’s politically on target.
love the roar from the King of the Kaiju !!!!!
Great. 🖤
Forget Beethoven, some of the finest music ever written.
Don’t know much ab blue oyster cult but I love to think writing this they were like ‘yo that giant lizard is kinda cool, here’s a song ab him with some awesome guitar licks’
Go, go Godzilla!!! BOC Shohei is the new Godzilla! CG
EPIC!
0:48 damn, i love that
Excellent video.
The best rock song e ever

Really love the camera work
This and Sabbath’s Iron Man were my favorites as a kid cause I loved both of the characters as a child!
Lol! I showed my little grandsons both Iron Man and Godzilla and now they live both songs.
