Great song. I've been a BOC fan since discovering their 'Secret Treaties' album back in the mid 70's.

Here's another Michael Moorcock penned BOC song...

... that's also written from the viewpoint of Elric of Melniboné, about Stormbringer, his demon sword.

Another band of Moorcock admirers. He was a quasi-official member in the 70s. This from the Chronicles of the Black Sword live album. The opening rant is Moorcock himself (in the flesh).

Here's a BOC song for the fans of the Hog Life, with an interesting thematic transition from bar tune to fated warrior mythos:

More BOC, this one with one of the most haunting bits of guitar work to make it onto pop radio:

Stagger,

I completely agree. Then Came the Last Days of May is their great unsung masterpiece. It is also a superb live song.

My favorite Blue Oyster Cult song. And a complete blast to play on Guitar Hero 3. Oh, and Moorcock wrote some of Hawkwind's songs. Strange dude, Moorcock, but I loved Elric!

some more BOC

which led me to some Nazareth

of course i had to grab another from the heavy metal soundtrack
Black Sabbath ....the Mob Rules

then i went into full 80's mode
Accept..fast as a shark.. a little Dieter

time for a double shot.....Accept ...Restless&Wild

they lost their edge when they cut Ace loose
K.I.S.S. ..... Hard Times

it's always good to end with eye candy
Styx...too much time on my hands

Been listening to this at work, now that I'm out of hours-long meetings, and have been very productive...

Shit i still have my ticket stub from that tour somewhere.....that was an awesome album

It's pretty sad but I was sitting here speaking along with Bruce as he spoke in between songs throughout the entire album..."here's what not to do if a bird sh&ts on you...THE RIME...OF THE ANCIENT...MARINERRRRR"

My son has a desk in my office and he was just ::)

I've listened to that album too many times to count.
