      That is what I really, really love about the new digital age we live in. I constantly see things that I have never seen before, or saw once 30 years ago. BOC is a treasure that every time I hear them, I wonder why they were not bigger than they were. Their videos are great, the songs are great...

      Adam Priest Still in their 20 most-played ever, per Setlist.fm, but yeah…in mothballs since '03. The only other one of the Top 20 they haven't done on this tour is "Stairway to the Stars", and that was played in '08, at least.

    • @libmonkey
      @libmonkey 9 років тому +10

      Take Me Away and Stairway are 2 of my favorites ever!
      They PROBABLY will never do either again( sadly) because Eric cannot sing either..
      Listen to Joan Crawford at one of the last shows.
      He is really struggling.. Bloom last sang GREAT in 2001 and has struggled since.
      Due to this obstacle in setlist planning, the Boysters should have refreshed the setlists with more rare " Buck tunes".
      They have not unfortunately..

    I remember first hearing this song played on the radio in early 1984 when I was 15. This was the heaviest HM song of its time before Thrash Metal came along and completely blew the doors off everything. Blue Oyster Cult is probably the most underrated Heavy Metal band of all time! This is a killer tune!

    I love this song! The first time I heard to it, was in 1992. One good friend of mine recorded it in a cassette in the last portion of tape that was left. Maybe 10 years later, I discovered the name of that song and the band that was performing it.🙌🏻
