(Don't Fear) The Reaper
I know for a fact that (Don't Fear) The Reaper was recorded in 1975. I had the 2003 CD release Of The Essential Blue Oyster Cult. And the CD packet had information of when the songs were recorded. I viewed (Don't Fear) The Reaper, and it said, Recorded: 1975. But I think I lost part of the packet. I can't find it. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough. There was a You Tube video of Blue Oyster Cult talking about (Don't Fear) The Reaper. And one of the members of the band even mentioned it was recorded in 1975. But now, I can't find that video. I guess You Tube deleted it. But here's some links that I found so far.

1. UNCUT. The Making Of Blue Oyster Cult's (Don't Fear) The Reaper. Go to: https://www.uncut.co.uk/features/the-making-of-blue-oyster-cult-s-don-t-fear-the-reaper-25375/ And carefully scroll down to the band's former drummer, Albert Bouchard's first comment in the article. You'll see, Albert Bouchard: The first time I heard it was May of 1975, and Donald called me up and "I got this new riff." and played it for me over the phone.

2. The Dharmas. The Birth Of (Don't Fear) The Reaper. Go to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aPPviu61Ik And watch this You Tube video. It will say, "SOMETIME IN 1975." Blue Oyster Cult's singer and guitarist, Donald "Buck Dharma" Roeser had just wrote (Don't Fear) The Reaper, and played it on his acoustic guitar for his wife, Sandy.
