Robin Zander has one of the best voices in Rock history. Still sounds great now.

[@TZKeyz]

Buck is a BIG rock star in my life.

[@briansshop]

I'm 60 and BOC has been and still is a huge part of my life. Love the music!

[@Kris-P343]

For those that remember, Buck played lead on “STARZ” (The Dio humanitarian fund raiser) along side all of the 80s gunslingers such as Yngwie,Lynch, Gillis etc… For me personally, Buck nailed it…tasty and melodic, but I never really went for that shred stuff.

[@FarrellMcGovern]

A great band. I spent a lot of time in Stony Brook in a science fiction library at the State University there. Cultösaurus Erectus is my favourite album, and had one of their collaborations, the song "Black Blade", with award winning Science Fiction & Fantasy writer Michael Moorcock who also collaborated with the British band Hawkwind.

[@1satisfiedmind]

I could have written this comment! Agreed!

[@Olliemets]

Robin Zander..who knew? Love the youtube era where these interviews are so available. Love BOC since I first saw them in 1976. Buck is criminally under the radar on lists of great guitarists. One minor detail to add- While band was put together in 1967, the seeds were sown at Clarkson University in Potsdam in 1965 when Buck and Albert met as engineering students. Buck from LI, Albert a North Country guy from Clayton on the St Lawrence. Great interview thanks !!!!

[@Tapp-Mourningwood]

"Cities on Flame With Rock and Roll." 🤘

[@bakeone4406]

B.O.C. killed live every time I saw them. It's a little weird to see these pretty ordinary looking old guys and realize that they were one of the most powerful, heavy and mind blowingly cool bands to ever exist.

[@joejones9520]

the lead in dont fear... is like it's from a different universe, i dont see how a human came up with that not to mention the insanely cool main riff of the song.

[@leehenderson8132]

STEVE Marriott. RIP

[@jonbenjisnomore7935]

Steve Marriott was awesome. For a pint size 5' foot 4" inch British born white rock n roll, soul/blues singer that ever lived imo.

[@brissiegeoff]

So many to choose from, Chris Cornell, Lou Gramm, Bon Scott, John Fogerty, Freddie, Dio, Paul McCartney, Plant. I’m an Aussie so have to throw in Jimmy Barns and John Farnham.

[@97warlock]

dont fear the reaper vocals, reminds me of Mrs. Robinson or Season Turn Turn Turn

[@thesaneparty4079]

BOC had 5 of my favorite vocalists.

[@johndaugherty4127]

Paul Rogers of course. Saw the BOC. Put on a helluva show. Godzilla drum solo with strobe lights.

[@JohnHepburn-ic1pu]

I have always loved Blue Oyster Cult! Buck Dharma appears to be a reserved and regular guy. He is not at all the Big Ego type that so many other people in the music business are.

[@alexknightma]

Great video! Thanks John!

[@Natch67]

In Goldmine magazine there was an interview w Buck and Eric after Albert left. They seemed lost? And admitted that their songwriting would suffer. It did. Great to hear the Bouchard Bros. Unlike a lot of Rock guys, they are likeable. Def. talented.

[@muddysludge7117]

Robin Zander is the Man!

[@2008PLS]

Buck is an underrated guitarist as Robin Zander is and underrated vocalist. Love them both!!!

[@shawngolden7722]

Great interview, excellent work!

[@ronbaker8383]

Dan McCafferty the king of rock R.I.P.

[@edljnehan2811]

Greg Lake is the goat😮

[@timbrooks8230]

That last comment by al was very heartfelt and sorta sad , but not really (cause he didn't make it that way) ...about not coming on too strong ...just take it easy ...Great Question BTW

[@user-wh5cw5nd2m]

One thing that bothers me about BOC is that they don't seem to have confidence in themselves. When Zep were asked about their favorites they would say themselves. A bit egotistical, sure, but it wouldn't hurt if Buck and Eric would say "well, other than by boy Buck/Eric, my favorite musicians are..."

[@chuckm4540]

Allen Lanier dated Patti Smith, the rock poet laureate of NYC,.

[@baronoflivonia.3512]

Last Days of May, Astronomy and ETI.

[@robbiedetroitstigermanviny8883]

My favorite is Miley Cyrus post Hannah Montana.

[@mrbunngle3866]

Most of the best BOC tunes are Bucks.nuff Said.

[@bomkfort9428]

Most of the POPULAR tunes are Buck’s. The deepest, eclectic, mysterious and haunting are the Bouchard bros. It’s all good though.

[@bonzer2u]

Freddie Mercury, perhaps the GOAT….

[@highrx]

For me… all time rock voice? Elton John. After him? Paul Rodgers.

[@97warlock]

I honestl think the should have kept their faces off the albums after 76 .. Names fine but No faces. I remember seein g them the first time, the just didnt look like Riockstars to me. The clothes & the mustache etc. Plus they appeared older.

[@davidbrockett8938]

Unfortunately Zander’s voice is shot . In the day he was good because he was different.

[@goshgolly8305]

Every dog has its day.

[@VonL]

Drinking that tainted Long Island water for all those years has left its mark.

[@aschule5684]

Anyone know who it was that got vandalized?

[@jonncockrell3606]

I like BOC. But don't like Robin Zander. So.. this didn't do much for me. But BOC was one of America's best rock bands.

[@jonbenjisnomore7935]

Well I'll agree with you that Robin Zander isn't the best rock singer that I too have heard he doesn't make my top 5 even but he is probably in the top 10 to 15 range. Yet I would disagree with you in this regard in saying that he is really talented & underrated as his band & bandmates were as well at their respective musical contributions.

[@christianpoint0888]

So is Cheap Trick !

[@johnsoos6907]

Go see Cheap Trick & then tell me you don't like Robin Zander.

[@goshgolly8305]

Robin Zander was fantastic. Not everybody likes everyone though.

[@cleverosity5465]

Zander.

[@lamarravery4094]

Peter Cetera has the best vocals. He did more than ballads. 25 or 6 to 4, Hideaway, and Woman don't want to love me, just to name a few. Life is What it is, a jazzy tune.

[@joejones9520]

the best vocalists in rock are janis joplin, kurt cobain, layne staley, tom petty, bon scott and bob seger. Their vocals use a rare technique that virtually no one can do.

[@jesusheals2]

Cheap Trick really suck. How strange-I guess his voice isn't bad. He should have been with an entirely different band I guess. They were an embarassment always...

[@jimmyBside]

😂😂😂

[@joex9865]

Godzilla is their best song

[@bomkfort9428]

You must’ve not listened to them long enough or through their whole catalog.

[@die2no]

Cool Buck likes Cheap Trick

[@BarrySanchez]

How about Jon Anderson of YES while most rock singers are only remembered on the ash heap of history at almost 80 Jon is going strong, just ask Richie Castellano of Blue Oyster Cult fame.
