Blue Öyster Cult

In November 1983, Blue Öyster Cult took the stage at the Cow Palace in Daly City, California. This performance took place shortly after the release of their 1983 album, 'The Revoution by Night'. This album marked a significant moment in their journey, being their first of the decade and featuring a more polished sound, likely influenced by the evolving landscape of rock during the early '80s. 'Feel the Thunder', the song they performed live, is a deep cut that, interestingly enough, rarely made it into their setlists. At this point in their career, Blue Öyster Cult was navigating the balance between maintaining their hard rock roots while experimenting with lighter, more melodic elements. Such live recordings capture not just the band's musical evolution but also the energy of the era, showcasing a pivotal time in their ongoing legacy.
