Blue Öyster Cult - "Burnin' For You" - Live Video

[@hwmbo727]

Don Roeser aka Buck Dharma is a rock treasure. His riffs and songs will live forever!

[@omarortiz1191]

One of the best bands of all time

[@gregfowler9835]

You’re not wrong

[@PyroStorme]

@@gregfowler9835 Almost wright... THE ! best band of all time.

[@deanwoolston4794]

I agree. Badly underatted.

[@zacsam1615]

Yes. I love their songs and I'd like that they become more famous.

[@russellj.s.257]

Agreed,better than most of today's music,if you can call it music.

[@jodycanfield6684]

Attempting to see all the remaining 70s bands before they fade out. Caught BOC in 2023. Awesome!

[@bobmassey7227]

I saw them at the Liberty Bowl in Memphis, summer of 76. Still sound amazing.

[@MattduCouloir]

The mix is perfect. The bass, guitar, drums and voice are somehow all perfectly audible and it’s not some overproduced pre-recorded crap. Kudos !

[@andrewkarp5067]

Richie probably did the mix…

Classic Richie! ​@@andrewkarp5067

[@ESP500]

The singer sounds great and he can still shred

[@contimano33]

It's the great Buck Dharma.

[@wbien6994]

Agents of fortune tour with the laser show was the best concert I ever saw. Burned in my mind forever.

[@44027]

This is one Cult I would be willing to join!

Count me in

[@JackWareingFilms]

Blue Oyster Cult is one of those bands that I didn't really appreciate in their heyday/prime, but now I realize how cool they were/are. Cool song!

Having heard this song for the first time the other day, it has solidified that I was born in the wrong decade.

I envy you, the first time you hear a song this brilliant is amazing

I saw them live in 1986 and I thought the same at the time...

"On tour Forever"!

[@terryhuwe2184]

Thank God!!

[@rottingpotatoes2483]

Just saw them about a month ago, they kick so much ass

[@Weaver67bl]

I grew up listening to the 60s, 70s, and 80s music. Nothing compares to those eras these days. Buck Dharma was both underrated as a guitarist and songwriter.

[@muellerm9768]

such a great song. i love it.

Greetings to all other baby boomers liking BÖC from Finland

[@gregorygreen7912]

Georgia, USA. GO DAWGS!!

[@dabcorn]

saw these folks in January 1975 at the Capitol Center in Maryland. It was amazing. Everyone one of the guys traded instruments for each song until they had all had a feature solo on each instrument. Wow!!!

[@genisis3457]

Ahhh i wish i was alive round that time, i live close to Capitol Center :)

You actually comforted me a little bit telling this, I felt like I went through something during the solo.

Whoever edited the clip has the mistaken notion that you need to zoom and/or cut once a second to command people's attention. Cripes.

Or if your prone to ridiculous drummers don't watch it either. This fucking guy needs to do something else.

[@rebeccaturner7780]

Love BOC, ive been a fan since the early 1970s, ive seen them 10 times

[@mylerism]

And Kasim Sulton on bass and backing vox. That guy's a national music treasure

[@fourteengreen1213]

And an absolutely awesome bass tone to boot!

[@Justin_Kipper]

For sure. Solid in Utopia too.

[@richardperez6941]

I said to myself is that Kasim on bass? I came here to check out the comments to see if that was him! Love his voice and his bass playing!

[@badbrainz1361]

Remember when their LP came out in 76, drove to the local record store “Tower Records”to get it-listened for hours over and over with my headphones on…ahhh the good old days, most prolific decades of music ever. Nothing comes close to what we experienced in the 60-70s!!!⚡️⚡️⚡️

One of the first 3 or so albums I ever bought as a kid was On Your Feet or on Your Knees. Probably around 76 or so.

[@trippingjune]

So powerful. He is shredding up that guitar solo. Interesting melodic vocal variations.

[@WastelandArmorer]

Ive noticed with some of these old bands where they loose in vocals they have gained skill with their instruments.

[@darthnatas953]

Beautiful guitar tone and wicked playing.

[@eileenszudejko3455]

Still love these guys. They were my daughter first concert she was about 4. It was an open air. We were near the frount, Daddy had on his boc godzill shirts and our little girl was dancing her tiny butt off so much people have her space and smiled. They guys loved it and thanked us from the stage for bringing her. Said they loved it. When she was acting out the song Godzilla while dancing. They had such huge smiles.

[@robertbrown3471]

I saw them in Binghamton NY in the mid to late 70's. My first concert, so I was blow away.

[@339blackdiamond]

seriously,considering they've been around since 1967,they're one of the best sounding band out there right now. It's insane considering some bands who've been around for a shorter time, stopped sounding great live a while back. But these dudes are still a delight to experience live,that's rare!

[@r.rod98]

This song is the power of three guitars in one show! Amazing!

[@razorsharpe3371]

Always loved lead players who didn’t sound like anyone else hence Buck Dharma being one if not my favorite guitar slingers.

[@robertjensen501]

Another stand out track from B.O.C.! I love the dual guitarwork.

Seen them in concert during the 70’s very powerful

I 1st saw them in July 1968 as Soft White Underbelly when I was a little over 11. My older cousin Mike brought me to see them. I have spoken to Buck a few times over the decades. He is a sweetheart and a gentleman.

[@yb-rk5oh]

Buck has been in my top 10 rock guitarist of all time since 1973. watch this video & you will know why.saw BÖC in spring '75 (on your feet or you knees tour) I still have the unused bumper sticker they dropped from the ceiling).brownsville station & foghat (Nick Jameson on bass) opened the show.all three bands kicked ass. Cumberland County Arena Fayetteville, NC. Ft Bragg soldiers were cheering like banshees. Buck's Boogie was amazing. Buck was dressed in a solid white suite (secret treaties) the hall of shame should be shut down until these 3 bands are inducted

[@michellec6844]

Same. First heard them when I was 10 in 1980! How was the show?

[@esteban1487]

Saw these guys at the Joe in Detroit in 1980. Black and Blue concert. They opened for Black Sabbath. They had like a 50 foot Godzilla pop out of the wings during the song. Amazing band.

[@craigcampbell8560]

BOC is easily one of the most underrated bands of all time. They still sound great! As a drummer myself I can't ignore the fact that while the drummer is clearly good, he adds way, WAY too many crash cymbals to this song. This is one of my favorite songs to play and he's on the crash cymbals almost ten times as much as the original drummer was in the studio version. While it's reasonable to change things up a bit, and I certainly don't expect a drummer (or any musician for that matter) to play a song exactly the same as the studio version as it would become boring, the nearly constant crash cymbal hits in this performance are excessive to say the least.

[@guytwombly2955]

They were kicking ass in concert back in the 70's Poco was another underrated band who won me over in concert and time has diminished their talent at all :)

[@mudwiser1391]

Underrated? maybe underappreciated commercially , but they are far from underrated. Exception musicianship and songwriting is never underrated, even if it is under appreciated.

[@MarcusRefusius]

If the BAND had an issue with the Cymbals they would change it. Jeez.

I was also 15 (November 1979) but sadly myself & a schoolpal couldn;t travel 40 miles to the middle of nowhere (Bingley Hall, Staffs) on a Friday night to see my all time favourite band & the excellent support from Magnum as well ... had to wait till 1981 for BOC (& 1980 for Magnum)

It took a guy like Richie to replace Allen Richie an incredible musician if you got a chance to see Allen thats cool . I saw them im thinking 83 or 84 pretty much the original line up. In , 79 they closed the Texas jam.

Could you explain it to non native speaker who is also too young (25) to get it?

[@DerEchteBold]

@ A "B side" is the other, usually rather unknown, song on the back of a vinyl single.
