Saw them in the early 80's at the Keystone in Berkeley playing under the SWU name. Also saw them as BÖC in the same era. Just a couple years ago, I was spending a weekend in Big Bear, CA, and by happenstance, they were playing at a small venue called "The Cave", so we grabbed tix and saw them again, 1st row behind the mosh pit. Albert Bouchard was there and played for a set or so. Still sounding great.
I’ve seen BOC live twice: Once in St. Louis in, IIRC, 1976, opening for Uriah Heep, and then much later in, of all places, a large bar in Paducah, KY. Might have been around 1999. They were excellent both times, and, in that bar, Hoooeey! I was really glad I took hearing protection!
Toward the end of that show in the bar, they played Godzilla. That’s by quite a bit not my favorite song of theirs (Either Death Valley Nights or Veteran Of The Psychic Wars might be), but, Godzilla IS fun, and that place (the bar crowd) just went totally nuts. I know I shouldn’t swear about such things, but, I swear, people in the crowd well in front of me were flyin’ sideways.
Were they thrown or did they jump? Can’t say...
