BLUE ÖYSTER CULT - Don't Fear The Reaper - Bass cover

The song was released in 1976. The "reaper" repersents death. The song is about the inevitability of death and the idea that love can persist despite mortality. The song tries to remove panic from it. The groove feels like hypnotic - it sounds mighty, yet with calm vocals. The middle instrumental section shifts the atmosphere to another space. The bass line by Joe Bouchard feels like a stabilizing current underneath the guitar pattern. It has got a calm, almost hypnotic consistency for the entire song.
