"Don't Fear The Reaper" is a classic heavy metal song by the band Blue Oyster Cult. In mid 2010, "Don't Fear the Reaper" was ranked #405 on Rolling Stone Magazine's Greatest Songs of All Time list. Less than two years earlier, the classic hit was placed 55th among VH1's Greatest Hard Rock Songs. The Americanism "more cowbell" was directly derived from Saturday Night Live's sketch of "Don't Fear The Reaper," which actually features a real, though barely recognizable, cowbell.


Built around on Donald "Buck Dharma" Roeser's guitar riff, "Don't Fear the Reaper" is a song guitar newbies can quickly learn how to play. The "cowbell" riff opens the song and reverberates throughout it. If you know the riff, you're all set. Learn how to play the "cowbell," and you'll know how to play "Don't Fear the Reaper."

That's not constructive; that's just criticism.

[Jorickvandooremolen]

@blodpolsen3 Most of the time's you guitar has to be in standard tuning this means that you have to tune you guitar to:

EADGBe (while the little e is the high E string)

Hope this helped you,

Kind regards,

Jorick
