(1976 – present)

Boston is a best-selling American rock band that achieved its most notable successes during the 1970s and 1980s. Centered on guitarist, songwriter, and producer Tom Scholz, a former product designer at Polaroid Corporation and an MIT engineering student, the band’s best known works include the singles “

More Than a Feeling”, “

Peace of Mind”, “

Foreplay/Long Time”, “

Don’t Look Back”, and “

Amanda”. Their 1976 self-titled debut is still the biggest-selling debut album of all-time in the U.S. with more than 17 million copies sold. “Third Stage” was only the second album to ever be certified triple platinum in its first month of release, in Nov. of 1986. The first was Lionel Richie’s “Dancing On The Ceiling” which did it one month earlier.

On 9th March 2007, Brad Delp (vocals) committed suicide at his home in Atkinson, New Hampshire. He was 55. Mr. Delp sang all the lead and harmony vocals on Boston’s first 3 albums.

I don't mean to sound like one of THOSE people, but More than a Feeling is epic. I wanted to cry when I heard it yesterday. It's been a while since I've heard it.

I remember seeing Brad Delp signing autographs at the Hopkinton Fair in New Hampshire. It was years ago and I was probably around 10years old but I remember it like it was yesterday.
