Blue Oyster Cult - Cities on Flame With Rock and Roll

The lead licks sound like Black Oak's Hot n' Nasty.

bad ass song.

They deserve it, no doubt. What an awesome band!

Not generally; this band is unique in that they had 4 vocalists! Eric mostly, Buck, Albert & Joe (brothers) The bros have left; I recommend Joe's work with Neal & Dennis from the Alice Cooper Group. They all play guitar and it is surely something when they all are strumming!! Lets get them inducted into R & R Hall of Fame! The petition is going around the net, give 'em their due.

Would love to see them live...love this band! A good influence on my tastes and on my own band. If you have a little time, click on my (looseground) channel and check my band out. We're are starting and need opinions and suggestions from you people with good musical taste. Thanks in advance. 90's, 60's and 70's influenced.

Rainbow opened for them the first time I saw them. Merriweather Post, mid-80's I went alone, no one else would go. Because I was alone the usher moved me from "TT" to row 8 CENTER!! I was so close when I waved my t-shirt over my head Buck nodded at me. What a show! I've turned my husband onto them; he loves it when Buck cracks his knuckles before launching into 'Cities'. He agrees that they are dynamite in concert. I've met Buck and Sandy; very nice folks. Would love to be friends with them.

I totally agree. I saw them live for the first time ever on March 1 this year, the venue was tiny but it was great, as Eric said it was like a big private party... it was absolutely AMAZING. they were sooo good, I wanted to go see them again immediately. They played a good 3 hour set, and it was just incredible.

man itsa hard to find the full tab to this song
i can only fin the intro and a few rifs but thats it

Albert Bouchard rules!

Do yourself a favour; SEE them live! No video can do them justice. I've seen Sabbath, KISS, WASP, ACDC, Rainbow, Accept, Aerosmith,Iron Maiden,.. and none of them captures what BOC does. Maybe it's because they take the music seriously and not themselves? I don't know what alchemy they brew before going on stage, but whatever it is, they give one of he most energising concerts I've been to. I've seen them from 70's through 2006. Smaller venues, but still the same fabulous show. See them!

thats bad-ass haha

amazing riff

is so different

wow, youtube's new site is wicked
