I count myself as very fortunate to have seen Allen Lanier play live with Blue Oyster Cult before his untimely death. Allen’s piano intro’ to “Joan Crawford” is just epic! And to witness the man play it live - phenomenal. And Allen was no slouch on guitar. I remember the live performances of “The Last Days Of May” where Allen gets into some serious solo shredding before Buck Dharma’s slower paced guitar work takes the song back to the last verse.
Allen Glover Lanier - Thank you for your music. RIP.
Yes.... and Flaming Telepaths solo
Most underrated,underplayed band in Rock history.
BOC's secret weapon, fantastic keyboard and piano player,also could wail on the guitar!
Morning Final , True Confessions and Please Hold are Allen Lanier’s masterpieces
In Thee.
Excellent group excellent video right to the point
Thank you! 😃
And a big thank you for recognizing a great keyboard/ rythym player.... and believe it or not...
Allen could really rip guitar solos....
Anyone who plays in a band w/ Buck.... becomes a great player...
Hence: Ritchie C. who somewhat replaced Allen in 2004.... who became quite a player... so much so that Ritchies "Band Geeks" was chosen by Jon Anderson to be his band on his 2023 short tour...
And also bassist Danny Miranda... who played with BOC from 1996 to 2004, when he left for the Vegas "Queen" show.... then was plucked by Brian May to play with the Paul Rodgers Queen in 07 or 08....
Now, Danny is back with the band since late 2017 or so...
What a band.... still getting it done...
But still Allen is missed by true ol school fans....
I saw BOC at least 1x per yr from 91 to 2010.... many years more than 1x..
Thank you thank you thank you.!!!!
And PS... Chuck Burgi played drums for many years in 80s and 90s ... Chuck has been Billy Joel's drummer the past 18 or 19 yrs.....
My mum died of copd. It’s a terrible long term death. I feel for Allen and his family. May he rest in peace 😿
A well done and interesting presentation.Allen and I were born in the same city; a fact I wasn't aware of.I was fortunate to see BOC perform live twice, in 1972 supporting Alice Cooper and 2-3 years later as the headliner with Rush opening the show.They were a unique band and the only one that I recall all 5 members playing guitar at the same time during their performance.Allen composed some really good songs for the band.I know he is missed.☮
Thank you 😁 So glad you enjoyed it. BOC will always have a place in my heart ❤
You were on early.
Rock on Allen.
Many thanks 🤘
Thank you for watching 😁👍
The video does not acknowledge bassist Joe Bouchard. This needs to be corrected.

I would heavily dispute the sales of "Some Enchanted ... " - unless it sold very well outside of the USA and UK - I remember that album being a pretty big letdown and nobody played it much.
Apparently some of the tracks on BOC’s “Some Enchanted Evening” were recorded live in Newcastle -Upon - Tyne in the U.K. Don’t know for sure but if the band recorded the closing track “We Gotta Get Out Of This Place” in Newcastle, then maybe it was done as a tribute to 60’s band The Animals who came from Tyneside.
Some Enchanted Evening was big when I was about 17. I probably have at least 4 copies of it in vinyl, 8-track and CD (double album version).
I'd have to disagree ... Great airbrush cover kind of greatest hits live ... I bought a copy so they sold at least one ha ha
@@Doug-nr3gh The first live album iis the one to have - I bought it as I am a BOC fan back in the day - my problem is the statement about sales, which I just don't believe.
@@brianhammer5107 my brother Blake bought the same Cadillac limo . Both great albums which inspire to still go see b.oc. whenever they make it up to Edmonton to play ! Rock on 😎 D's
