New England started their career as Carot Time Cornucopia and soon thereafter renamed themselves The Fossils, playing a mixture of "jazz-funk and progressive music in the mid-1970s". When they were discovered in a Boston area bar by former DJ Eugene "The Friskman" Frisky, their first professional manager, he suggested they rename themselves New England.
Brad Delp was a sad story and we were all devastated here in Massachusetts! It was really sad because he bottled it up. He was a very charitable person, and that’s what makes it even harder. But what a super talent!
He got caught secretly video taping his girlfriends sister or daughter I forget exactly and husband who were living with them in NH and if he didn’t tell her they were going to so he committed suicide.
@@zeprls The sad truth of Brad Delp's suicide . . . I live in NH close to where Brad lived. I knew him, met him several times, a couple of times were after hours in a restaurant owned by a close friend of Brad's, which I worked at the time. Brad was a very private person. He was known as The Nicest Guy in Rock 'n Roll. Unfortunately, his personality was the type where he played peacemaker within the band and he left a lot of the troubles and problems bottled up inside and it ate away at him. There are many things that led to his decision to take his life, it was not just one thing. Sometime between 11:00 pm on March 8 and 1:20 pm on March 9, 2007, Delp committed suicide by carbon monoxide poisoning at his home on Academy Avenue, in Atkinson, New Hampshire. It was due to many private reasons. Delp left the public notes scattered throughout his house from his car to the master rooms. The Atkinson police discovered his body on the floor of his master bathroom after Pamela Sullivan saw a dryer vent tube connected to the exhaust pipe of Delp's car. A set pair of two charcoal grills were found to have been lit inside the bathtub causing the room to fill with smoke. A suicide note was paper-clipped to the neck of his T-shirt, which read: "Mr. Brad Delp. 'J'ai une âme solitaire'. I am a lonely soul." Delp left four sealed envelopes in his office addressed to his children, his former wife Micki, his fiancée, and another unnamed couple. He was 55 years old. The following day, Boston's website was temporarily closed down, the webmaster having replaced their home page with a simple black background and white text message: "We've just lost the nicest guy in rock and roll." Delp's cause of death was ruled a suicide. The reason for Delp's suicide has been the subject of contradictory news reports and lawsuits. A series of interviews conducted by the Boston Herald alleged that lingering hard feelings from Boston's disbandment in the 1980s and personal tension between Delp and bandleader Scholz drove the singer to commit suicide. Scholz denied these claims but lost the defamation suits he waged in defense of his character. Court documents from the trials show Scholz claimed that personal problems plagued Delp. Boston Herald attorneys point to voluminous testimony from former Boston members, other local musicians, Delp's doctor, and Delp's friends, including Meg Sullivan (his fiancée's sister), many of whom say the singer did not like Scholz, desperately wanted to quit the band, and felt tormented by his role as middleman in an ugly conflict between Scholz and former band members. All of this was summarized in a 140-page statement filed by the Herald in April, 2012. However, additional sworn testimony by Meg Sullivan revealed a more tragic explanation for his motives. Delp was housemates with Sullivan, his fiancee Pamela's sister, for two-and-a-half years before his death. On February 28, 2007, Meg discovered a hidden camera planted in her room. After confronting Delp, he admitted to planting the camera and later wrote a series of emails pleading for forgiveness. Todd Winmill, Meg's boyfriend, implored Delp to admit his wrongdoings to Pamela on March 3. After promising to tell her in a few days, Delp purchased the grills and tubing he later used to commit suicide. Pamela found his body on March 9. In the bathroom were several notes written by Delp, one of which read: "I have had bouts of depression and thoughts of suicide since I was a teenager … [Pamela] was my 'ray of sunshine', but sometimes even a ray of sunshine is no substitute for a good psychiatrist." On October 16, 2007, Barry Goudreau released one final song with Delp on vocals titled "Rockin Away". Written and recorded in the summer of 2006, co-written with Goudreau, it is an autobiography of Delp's musical career. According to "America's Music Charts", the song reached #20 on the rock charts in January 2008. On what would have been Delp's 61st birthday, June 12, 2012, Jenna Delp, Delp's daughter and President of the Brad Delp Foundation, released an MP3 on the foundation website of a "never before released" song which was written and recorded by Delp in 1973. It also was announced that the foundation intended to release a complete album of Delp's solo work at some point in the future, which would encompass a span of 30 years of previously unreleased material written and recorded by Delp and his closest friends. Throughout 2013 there were media reports of three lawsuits involving Scholz. On April 19 it emerged that he is suing former Boston guitarist Barry Goudreau for alleged trademark infringement. According to the Boston Globe, the lawsuit claims that Goudreau, who left the band in 1979, signed an agreement awarding him 20 percent of royalties from the first two albums in return for giving up all rights to the name ‘Boston’. Goudreau, it is alleged, broke this agreement with promotional material in which he is referred to as ‘Barry Goudreau from Boston’. A similar story emerged on August 21, when the Boston Herald reported that a federal court judge had ruled against Scholz in a dispute with Fran Cosmo and his son Anthony. Scholz had attempted to prevent the pair from advertising themselves as ‘former members of Boston’ - despite the fact that Cosmo Sr was the lead vocalist on Boston’s 1994 album Walk On, and his son was a guitarist and songwriter for the band between 1999 and 2004. And on July 1 it was revealed that Scholz had been ordered to pay the Boston Herald $132,000 following the failure of a defamation lawsuit against the newspaper. Scholz had sued after the Herald ran a story on the suicide of original Boston singer Brad Delp. Using quotes attributed to Micki Delp, the vocalist’s former wife, the story alleged that the relationship between Scholz and Brad Delp had resulted in Delp being “driven to despair”. It was headlined: ‘Pal’s snub made Delp do it: Boston rocker’s ex-wife speaks’. A Superior Court judge ruled that the Herald could not be held liable for defaming Scholz because it was impossible to know what caused Delp to kill himself. On November 25, 2015, the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts found in favor of the Boston Herald and Micki Delp in a defamation lawsuit brought by Scholz. In its ruling, the court said statements attributing Delp's suicide to Scholz were "statements of opinion and not verifiable fact, and therefore could not form the basis of a claim of defamation." On February 23, 2016, Scholz filed a petition for certiorari asking the Supreme Court of the United States to allow his defamation lawsuit to go ahead. On June 6, 2016, the Supreme Court declined to revive the case.
Mike K Extreme is an amazing and super underrated band! I don’t think he’s done any videos on them but you are right, III Sides To Every Story is a great album
Always thought Pornogaffiitti was there best album with III Sides a close second. I have more nostalgia tied into their second album because of it being released in my high school years.
interesting wonder how many are going to comment that look at Pete😱 he's not wearing a rock and roll t shirt. have a good time in bean town. sorry I missed a live chat have to keep those 18 rolling🚛🎶☕ Late Donna Summer was also from Boston..💃🕺🎶 uh-oh guilty pleasure
Oh, I wish I had not missed this. I'm originally from Boston. I know all about the music because I'm a 70s person. Graduated in 1980. Actually , Joe Perry graduated from the same high school I did. Although I'm a lot younger than him. Aerosmith played their first concert at nipmuc Regional High in Mendon. I was too young to go to that and didn't know who they were anyway. I guess the concert was $0.50. I'll have to listen to what you're saying. I wish I hadn't missed this cuz I have so much. Info that you'd probably love to hear.
I've seen J. geils in Worcester, Massachusetts, but I also saw Peter Wolfe on his own at a club that I frequented in Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts on Martha's Vineyard. It was fun because we were right in front of him. We could just dance around and he would come right out into the audience.
I'm foreigner from Brazil and I don't speak english very well. I got know some words you say, but I want to know your name to begin a conversation. Some questions that I want to ask and participate of. Excuse-me for the bad language. I'm a former of a night rock club since 1971 in my country where I was DJ working for a long long time (30 years).
I sure hope you mention ELDER because they are the greatest thing to come along in a long time! Prog/stoner/metal all in one. Check out their albums "Lore", "Dead Roots Stirring" and "Reflections of a Floating World"...
I grew up with Godsmack, one of the few mainstream rock bands that were actually good in the late '90s to early 2000's... As a kid I lived in South Yarmouth for roughly a year, right around the time their debut album came out... Not that they weren't also very popular in other states, but yeah- songs like Whatever and Keep Away were getting good radio play on the local station... After that we moved to Florida, and my brother got to see them live on the IV tour along with Saliva and Army of Anyone... I was 12 at the time and pissed that my dad didn't let me go...
I know this isn't really your thing but I really love Dropkick Murphys. 60% Punk 40% Celtic. It isn't your normal thing but if you listen Blackout and Warriors Code you will find it just the right combination of Punk & catchy Celtic music. Rock & Roll Bagpipes. My other Boston band thought... "Take out your false teeth mama...."
AEROSMITHS GREATEST ALBUMS ARE FROM 1973- 1985 I AGREE WITH YOU PETE THE LAST GOOD AEROSMITH ALBUM WAS DONE WITH MIRRORS I LOVE ROCK IN A HARD PLACE GREAT UNDERRATED ALBUM AS WELL AS NIGHT IN THE RUTS ALSO THE PANDORAS BOX BOX SET CAME OUT IN 1991 THAT WAS ALL THE GOOD AEROSMITH SONGS
..The Standells !! they loved that dirty water...with Berklee College of Music , Boston College and the New England Conservatory , the Boston Symphony Orchestra , Symphony Hall , Paul's Mall (rip?) etc , the Boston area has more first-rate musicians than you can shake a stick at...if that's your idea of a good time...
My first rock concert ever(not counting Beatlemania when I was a kid)was J.Geils Band. Also, Aerosmith, the Cars and Boston(duh). If we can talk about prog then some lesser known bands would be Birdsongs on the Mesozoic and Bent Knee.
Hi Mike. The J.Geils Band was my first live show also, the played at my high school in 1973. Loved them since that show and seen them 4 or 5 times with last show made 6 years ago.
There's a gentleman by the name of Michael Zimmons. That lives in Massachusetts somewhere He's a Gene Simmons look alike with and without makeup. It's unbelievable.
RE: Boston's female singers - Kimberly Dahme was the bass player and sang lead on several songs from the Corporate America era until just before the Life Love & Hope album was released. (She sings lead on a couple LLH tracks.) After she left, Tom hired Beth Cohen, who has sung backup for a number of artists. She's a backup guitar/keyboard player, and backs Tommy Decarlo on vocals. Tracy Ferrie (formerly of Stryper) has been their bass player since then.
Beth Cohen has been with Boston just as long as Kimberly although she had other commitments and did not tour with them till Kim left. Beth has recorded with Boston on Corporate America as well as Life Love and Hope. Also Kimberly played flute and rhythm guitar too.
@@johnbenard9550 Good catch, I had forgotten about that. Unlike Kimberly, though, Beth never had a lead vocal on a Boston record, so she kind of flies under the radar.
Jonathan Richmond &the Modern Lovers, Willie"Loco" Alexander, Blue Cheer, the Real Kids, Lemonheads, Pixies, Slapshot, the Dogmatics, Jerrys Kids, Mission of Burma, Volcano Suns....could go on and on. Boston was grunge before there was grunge. The Rat, Cantones, the Channel, T.T. the Bears, the Middle east, the Paradise....friggin epic music town.
I totally agree, heard years ago they were planning to release concert footage, like a DVD, but it never came to be. Probably because of Tom the control freak Scholz, perfectionist that he is. There was a live song released as a bonus track on Corporate America - Livin For You. Guess we have to depend on Mighty RUclips for live footage or Bootlegs. I have a recording on cassette that I made from the 2 shows I saw at the Worcester Centrum back in 86 saw the 1st and last of 6 sold-out shows there, taped them both.
Down in the new waterfront area...don't remember the street. A block away from Harpoon Brewery (where I originally wanted to go but they were closed for a private party)
...how were they Rand ? they get a lot of flack now , why i'm not sure...haven't heard that first/only ? album since the day but i seem to remember being impressed in that Cold Blood , Rare Earth way...
james nash they were great. We were in an elementary school gymnasium sitting in the bleachers and the acoustics weren’t. I played Trumpet for years so I really enjoyed Chase.
Duane Allman always said J.Geils Band were his favorite!🎸
I love all the Boston bands you mentioned! Enjoy your time in Boston! Thank you for this review!🎤🎸🎵🥁
Yep, Billy Squier from Boston. Just absolutely monster vocals. I had all his albums back in the day.

Thanks, John! I asked about that song in a recent comment. Didn't the Standells appear in an episode of "The Munsters"?
