Lyrics:
Going to hitch a ride
Head for the other side
Leave it all behind
Never change my mind
Going to sail away
Sun lights another day
Freedom on my mind
Carry me away for the last time
Oh yeah

I'm 63 yes old, had a heart attack last Monday. And had 2 stints put into my ❤. Was released from hosp last Thursday and readmitted last Friday. Went into ❤ failure Monday morning. To make a long story short, when I was feeling close to the end, I pulled up this song and played it as loud as I could because I was ready to head for the other side. I could vision myself swiftly moving through the clouds towards my final destination on the purest of sunlight beyond belief. My daughter has strict orders to play this song at my funeral and for nobody to cry for me. But be happy for me that I'm on my way home. JAMMIN!!! BOSTON ROCKS
Hope you’re well. I would like a version of this played at mine too. ❤
Nice story my guy. I am 56. Triple bypass in August 23. Lots of complications afterwards. I am doing better now. I am so thankful for the Internet and earbuds. Music soothes my soul. May peace and good health be apon you.
Hope your all ok!
The other side?? You need to know Jesus.....otherwise the other side may be your worst nightmare that will last for eternity ❤
May god bless u and ur family and keep u around longer!!! Just by reading this i can tell ur a down to earth guy and i have faith ull get through it 👍🏻💪🏽
that end solo is so underrated my god
Every song on this album is epic; this is my favorite.
This album will never be matched.
An absolute masterpiece.
Brad, you left us too soon, R.I.P.
The fact that it's still so popular today will back up what you said here !!
@@SirManfly Truth
He was born on June 12, I was born on June 11. Today I have that same feeling of a lonely soul like he said on his note after committing suicide. We can do this! I’m also a guitarist and musician lover
I’m 58 and believe this is arguably the greatest album ever recorded…
Definitely one ☝️ of them 🙏💯🔥
Not even close .
It was good enuf that they got sued by the rec label 4 not releasing a 3rd album n their contract, which they eventually did....
Since 1976, I've been a Boston fan. Since then, I've always maintained that Brad Delp was one of the top 5 rock & roll singers of all time. What range. I miss you.
Boston had so many original songs Brad delp and Tom Schultz created so many nice original songs
Hitch a Ride in my opinion is one of the best songs of all time.
Possibly the best ever debut album; period.
The greatest debut album in music history.
Period.
Peter Gabriel's "Shaking The Tree" is pretty damn good too. But yeah, Boston has just THAT sound.
@@psycholist724Shaking The Tree is his greatest hits album... his solo debut is the one with the car on the cover art
@@kaibomo Huh. OK my mistake. Thanks.
In The court of the crimson king !
Ditto
Saw them in 1987 at the Worcester Centrum I’m MA. Brad sounded great and Tom shredded the guitar. Awesome to see them.
My son David died recently from a drug overdose. Listening to this song helps me. Until we meet again ❤
I'm sorry.
@@reflexedrose1879 Thank you so much.
I am so so sorry. My so, Stu died the same way. This was his favorite Bostno. I know you changed because I did.
I'm with you in Jesus name .
I know a hug from a stranger on the internet is almost worthless, but I just sent one to you anyway. For you and for David. You will hug him again some day.
one of the greatest guitar solos ever written... this album is just a masterpiece.
AMEN BROTHER👊👍💯
Sad that most people don't know now just how awesomely great a player Tom is. Not only guitar, but played all instruments on this album except the drums...amazing
💯💯💯
such a goddamn CRIMINALLY underrated solo, we need a support group for this subject
@@randgibbs1440 Agree. Too many people judge guitarists on technical proficiency alone, but some guitarists excel at making **music** and get left behind in discussions of great guitarists.
Thank God I was a teenager during the 70s. 😉
Me too
best music by far...
I feel bad for the kids today
@@JimboUSAF007 And lived to tell about it.....
Oh, me too! ❤
When it's my time to go, to "hitch a ride and head for the other side," play this song. Light a joint, crack a beer, and I'll smile with you.
Turning 60 in a few months, what a ride has been so far blessed beyond belief Boston brings back many great memories
That guitar solo is one of my favorite things in this world.
Totally
Amen!!!
In loving memory of my beautiful Brother
Life is like the coldest winter
People freeze the tears I cry 😢
Masterfully produced album.Each song evokes a distinct vibe. This album and Siamese Dream top 2 heartfelt lp s of all time. And im 60.
It's a sad shame that Boston never got the true respect they truly earned, this is pure rock and roll. In my opinion Boston was the greatest rock and roll band, their music is timeless, a sad shame
I think they got the respect from the public.. big album sales, huge audiences! Fuck the critics! Great guitar playing and what a great singer!
No, they were massive in the 70s, trust me. More than was played on radio all the time. They faded with the punk scene exploding. I'm in uk, by the way.
Brad Delp singing this song. Tom Scholz on guitar. Two of the best solos of ever.
Don't forget the second guitarist Barry Gudreau
Yes, both are a couple of the best solos I have heard. Put together ,one of the best, most underrated rock songs.
"Boston" is on of the best things to come out of the 70s.
My all time favorite Boston tune
N 79 i was 14 n would ride my bike to the heads house n get high n listen to this...was a GREAT time.
Boston fans might say "More Than A Feeling" is their best song, which who could argue right? Boston aficionados know that "Hitch A Ride" is their best song.
I’m with you my friend!!!
@@markhawkins3183 Me too.
Damn straight
@@dannymurphy6178 Brads voice is heavenly!! RIP Brad 🙌
It's a top track and "More than a Feeling " is a cool song but not their best or top 5
Top 5 guitar solos ever on tape.
Jaming in West Germany on a Tank 1977-80 Yeah baby Boston Rocks got me through the very bad times
Man....even 46 years later, this solo still gets me right in the heart. Absolutely amazing.
It does.
There are some songs that make your stomach hurt in a good way kind of
This is hilarious. I even had this album.
Boston came on the radio while I was transporting my supervisor from one location to another. He said, "what a good band they were" and I said, the guitar work in Hitching a Ride is one of the best ever.' My supervisor is now always in a good mood with me.
Both the organ and guitar solos on REO's "Keep on Rollin'" are the only other solos that hit me the same way as Toms do on this track. Some things never get old brother!
That guitar solo is amazing!! One of the greatest in classic rock
And it's an outro solo...
If you want to hear another great guitar solo, watch Eric Johnson's Cliffs of Dover at Austin City Limits. It is the one where he is wearing a marching band jacket.
Tom Schultz was never given his Justice as a guitar player..... But it wouldn't be Boston without the rest.... I'm 63 years old and I want this entire album played at my funeral is loud as the PA will allow.... It's left an indelible mark on my soul...
❤❤ 1977-78 Hope you made it. This one brings back so many good vibes and N.HH.S. LAValley College memories,..🎉🎉
I could Listen to the Guitar solo nonstop the rest of my Life
I'm right with you on that , it's just ....words fail me .
Check out the following to see how it was done - Hitch A Ride guitar solo youtube channel Jesse Fildes
Split screen so you can see the double tracking and harmonies etc. It is superb .
This is*THE* best recorded album ever, the songs are great, but in general, the recording quality, the double tracking the mixed vocals all of it just leads to the best recorded album ever
I've listened to this song probably hundreds of times and I still get chills at the end of that guitar solo
Same! I get chills every single time I hear it.
My brother and I were so saddened by his Death. He was such a good freind to my brother. One of the nicest guy you could ever meet.
One of Rock’s most memorable and underrated songs.
wow! that hammond sounds wicked!! love everything about this song! the bass is warm and rhythmic, the solos are sensational, the voices are armoniusly great, the lyrics makes me want to take a walk in my beautiful city... and I love the drum fills! OMG this song is PERFECT
I'm not even 25 yet and I still love this song
Truly a masterpiece
This song is the best song on the album for me. I remember being at Padre Island and my husband and I were just a couple years into our marriage (probably 87 or 88) we were so young. We rented a little VRBO …. We actually rented it twice over the years. Anyway we could look out the window and walk across the street and the beach was right there. It’s not that way anymore. Anyway we were at the beach with our boombox that played cassette tapes and we played Boston all day long .That day this beautiful Irish setter dog came up to us and he stayed with us for the rest of the afternoon. We have pictures of me in the water with him. We wanted to take him home with us, but when our day ended, he went on his way. Every time I hear this song I think of that day. ❤️
What a Beautiful memory , Thank You for sharing it . God Bless You and your Husband 🙏🙏🙏
The lead in this song 🎵 is so underrated...
Boston is the best ever. Brad Delp made Boston what is even still today !!
This song becomes such a huge influence on me too many times
This song brings me memories of my Mom and Dad. My Dad died many years ago, and my Mom died Monday. The guitar solo is heavenly. Carry me away for the last time.
Definitely one of the best guitar solos of all time!!
I could listen to the late Brad Delps voice all day.
Bitchin Boston!!! Sooo BadAss Sweet Beautiful Electrifying Melodic!!! YES!!! May God Bless y'all Richly and Jesus Peace!!! ❤😂🎉😮
HEARD THIS A MILLION TIMES AND WILL LISTEN TO IT A BILLION MORE TIMES!!! ❤😊😊 ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!
60 in March 70s in Miami 🔥
@@user-ki2yd8ri5n😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
I think I am just behind you...9,999 listen..I want more...as a guitar player...this is simply fantazm, God rest the kid soul of Brad Delp...an amazing stage presence and the most beautiful male singer ...ever?
I still think this is most underrated solo in rock hiatory.
Brad Delph (rip) great voice and Tom Sholtz ahead of his time the song just lifts the spirits and makes you feel you can fly ....
My favorite Boston song, it sounds like to guitars talking to each other.
I have no idea how many times I have played this album. Love all their albums. Boston is one of the best rock bands of all time!🎸🎸🤘🤘
Lost my dad April 12, 2020. This was his absolute favorite Boston song, and has always been one of my favorites as a result
Sorry honey.... thing's will get better... Already are. .. yeah...💫
I lost my Pops on 4/12/2018 💔😢
Your Dad had amazing taste in music.
Prayers ❤
This. Is. A. Great. Song. Period.
Went from Houston to Thunder Bay-had this cassette and wore it out! Every song making the miles fly by! Every person I knew who heard it the first time was floored!
Boston is a 10/10 album in my opinion
Not a single bad song on this album
So true! Check out Red Can EP
I'm 62 love this from the first time I heard it
Totally hear you I'm an adult male at 58 I'm glad you did that to su h a good song
Rick Beato brought me here! The riff in that solo really is beautiful... never heard it before tonight.
He's right great solo. Underrated
This song is one of their best as a band. Delp had a killer voice
He sure did.
One of the best guitar solos in rock nroll
Great voice, great sound! Pure rock! Reminiscence!❤️
That guitar solo at the end brings tears of pure ecstatic JOY!
I’m 67 ALWAYS hear this song like the very first time so long ago!
This song is just magical and ever so meaningful! The solos are truly soul stimulating!!! This is top of the top song writing and pure perfection.
For the 406 people that gave this a thumbs down either your confused and hit the wrong button or you have no idea about pure music talent cause this band had that and the singer is a once in a generation talent, his voice was like an instrument for him, not many people had as much talent in singing that he had, his Beatle cover band was a testament to the versatility he had
Boston and Heart, my two favorite bands of 1976!
the star fell on us rock it hard we know
Probably one of, if not the most favorite song from Boston. I love the way Tom Scholz just keeps coming up with the guitar parts at the end. You dont want it to end.
Life is like the coldest winter
People freeze the tears I cry
Words of hell their minds are into
I've got to crack this ice and fly
Just so nastolgically pleasing. I hear it "I hitch a ride" back to 1976 when this album was released and life was simple. I cranked this album so many times that I lost count. Awesome album. One of the top five ever produced.
50 years ago..Holy F !!
My favorite guitar solo of all time. So beautiful. 💙💙💙
The guitar solo just hits you right in the feels. 🎸
I’m 61, I love this song, I could hear play end to end all day!
I am 61, I have always been a Boston Fan, like all Boston songs I could hear this song play end to end all day long.
My favorite ban from the start. My first concert. I have never seen such musical excellence since.
If I wrote and recorded one piece of music my entire life, and if it took most of my life to do it, and if that one piece of music was the 1 min. 42 sec. finishing guitar solo of this song, I would consider my life as a musician to be a complete success.
Greatest solo ever played
Best guitar solo on earth
A song that I will never forget and I song that I love and I will always remember
The best song ever. Having a shitty day, put this on and you will feel better. Play it over and over and louder every time and the bullshit day is forgotten. Again, best song ever.
I know those days
well said....in time, all will agree.
Very true
SG I wanted to hit like again, but it was too late.
You got that right
Got to crack this ice and fly ❤
One of the songs at my wake
Yes and Amen brother!!🙌
Home Boys!
the solo at the end is guaranteed to make you feel better no matter what's happening in your life.
Very adroit. And beautiful.
"...no matter what's happening in your life."
My planet of 16 billion population has just been destroyed by an unknown alien race...
@@ordinarryalien A troll in every thread.....
@@christopherjames9843 First my people were destroyed, and now someone on the internet calls me a troll. I guess my day can't get any worse.
*Edit:* I just stubbed my pinky toe... :(
@@ordinarryalien Alien from another planet welcome to our world, just strap on your guitar and welcome to our world.
This song is just perfection
Everyone I knew had the album or 8 track! Amazing album
one of my all time favorite...1970s, crusing in my '70 Dodge Challenger T/ A 340+6 ...warm summer breeze, care free days...
0:39 I love this from Brad Delp!
Without classical music, these guitar runs wouldn't be possible. And these are some of the best guitar runs in music.
I’m sorry for your loss. Fathers are good to have.
This brings tears to my eyes
That Solo!..... it starts with a sound of deep sorrow, then brings you back into light...The Best!
...who else blinked and somehow 44 years have passed since this song entered our lives, psyche and soul?....44 years?....gee whiz, Wally, I'm old....
LOL
Did you see that Ken Osmond aka Eddie Haskell passed away?
Always loved this song
I fell asleep in my 65 Impala SS in 1978 with this 8 track blasting and woke up in the middle of a damn fakedemic!
I know! I was in high school it feels like Yesterday listening to this great song. “How did it get so late so soon?” I think that’s Dr. Seuss.
I'm right there with ya man!
The best rock and roll album of all time. "rock and roll hall of fame".
Great song!! Powerful!!
Boston's first album is an absolute masterpiece. I never tire of it and always come back to it. Brad Delp's voice is smooth as silk. Gives me goose bumps. RIP Brad.
Ah yes, I remember going with Mom to the grocery store, slinking off and snagging this album, then returning to the grocery store to the check out line with Mom (check out clerks memorized the price of everything in the grocery store) and heading home. We listened to the entire album together and she loved Brad's voice and the guitar work.
May your father rest in peace God bless
The guitar….incredible.
Why is Boston not in the Rock n Roll hall of Fame ?
