ON TAPE FOREVER!
This project has been in the works for over a year, and what better time to launch than while many people are in lock-down and there are no live shows happening.
Starting today we are rolling out a series of archived videos on our official YouTube channel spanning the entire career of the amazing BLUE ÖYSTER CULT.

Keep in mind, the quality is sometimes less than stellar (especially on some of the oldest material), as the "master tape" for many of these is a VHS cassette from an in-house video system.
There’s nine hours of material here so sit back, relax and enjoy - after you WASH YOUR HANDS!
Don’t forget to check back next week for the next installment!
