    It’s hard to beat Tom Scholz and Brad Delp. Tom Scholz pretty much played every instrument in his basement originally. He was a musical genius. He was an MIT graduate and developed the siren box that you hear coming from his guitar. That’s why nobody else sounds like them. And that’s Brad Delp singing like a true champion! Literally one of the best and coolest rock ‘n’ roll bands ever to come across the planet.

Then at Montague Mtn. in Pennsylvania in 2003, 27yrs later with my 15yr old son, and was blown away again. Brad's voice was perfect. Tom's musicianship, masterful. The harmonies were so good. Brad's death was such a loss to the R&R world. Tom called him the soul of the band(and Brad said Tom was the heart).

      @@kenkonwick6660 I like Van Halen too, and the only reason why I like more Van Halen songs than Boston is because Boston didn't release many albums.

      @delscoville yes Boston wasn't unproductive because of Scholz. They had label and contract issues that spent 3 years in court. That the gap between don't look back and 3rd stage. Was 8 years between releases, and at least 3 and maybe as much as 5 years were court related. I was living in Boston when Amanda got it's first radio tease, I think it was 86 or 87. That city was just going crazy in anticipation of it. But I really didn't get into the 3rd album nearly as much as 1st 2 albums

    I was that 17 year old in August of 1976. This record was killer from the first track to the last.
    Oh there are a number of videos. The one closest to the release date is from Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey from 1978 or 1979. The video quality isn't that great but the sound is amazing for the seventies and probably 8 or 16 millimeter photography.

    Mostly recorded in Tom Scholz's basement studio on equipment, still in use today, he designed and built. He also played all the instruments as well as composed, recorded and mixed EVERYTHING. Brad Delp's vocals and some of drummer Sib Hashian's licks were recorded in a pro studio so Tom could get the sound he wanted. Both have since passed on (Sib on stage!) and Brad by suicide. At one time it was the biggest selling debut album of all time. The whole album in genius. The group did tour, but they could never really recreate the sound of the studio.

    • @neechee5150
      @neechee5150 10 месяцев назад +2

      @carlswenson5538 Toms tracks on this record were recorded on a Sculley 12 track one inch tape machine and a Dan Flickinger mixer/console both of which Tom did not use on the second record because he upgraded his console and went to the industry standard 24 track two inch tape machine.
      Brad wrote Let Me Take You Home Tonight and he Co wrote Smokin'. This record was mixed at Westlake Studios on their new and then top of the line API console. Producer John Boylan, engineer Warren Dewey and Tom mixed this record. Tom was so hell bent on pushing the electric guitars and cymbals that in order to keep the vocals from being buried in the mix, the API console was driven into "manual compression".
      All of Brads vocals were recorded by producer John Boylan at Capital Studios Studio C on their Quad Eight console through a Neuman U 87 solid state mic and those high end mic preamps, eqs and compressors along with the Neuman 87 made a world of difference. The vocal production is 100% Boylan. The entire song Let Me Take You Home was recorded at The Record Plant LA by producer John Boylan.
      Tom did not play a single drum track on this record and the record is so much better for this fact. Tom is not going to be mistaken for Vinnie Colaiuta, Jeff Porcaro or Bernard Purdie not even on the third cold day in hell. As is clearly documented in the liner notes of every copy of the Boston debut record even the remix--all drum tracks on this record were played by Sib except for one and Jim Masdea plays drums on that track which happens to be Rock and Roll Band.
      Tom did not play all of the guitar and bass tracks on this record either. Barry plays electric rhythm guitar on Foreplay, Long Time and Let Me Take You Home. Barry plays the monster power chords on Long Time as well as the amazing lead guitar solo on Long Time. Barry also plays lead and slide guitar on Let Me Take You Home.. Fran plays bass on Foreplay and Let Me Take You Home. Brad plays acoustic 12 string on Let Me Take You Home. This is all documented in the post litigation liner notes of the 2006 Scholz remix of the debut Boston record. Most of this is also documented as fact in legal documents where Tom had to tell the story under oath in the law suits between Tom and Barry. In spite of Toms best efforts, Barry still retains his share of the royalties from the first and second Boston records, and thee are very good reasons why Tom was not able to take this from him.

    Spaceship guitars. That's a theme for their albums. Tom is an MIT-trained mechanical engineer. He built a sound studio in a basement. Did most of the music except the vocals. Wrote most of the tracks except for one, and co-wrote another with Brad Delp (RIP). He did all of this while working at Polaroid. This album is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's "Definitive 200" list. Sound of a generation. :-)

EVH was using the Variac to get the sound he wanted without driving the Marshalls so hard that they made everyone deaf as well.

      That would be the guitar player Tom Scholz who did most of the album in his basement studio. He and Brad were flown out to L.A. to record the vocals by the record label.

      Not true. Sib Hashian plays drums on every track on the album, except on "Rock & Roll Band" (played by Jim Masdea). According to Tom Scholz, he (Tom) played drums sparingly on the demo tapes, but mostly it was Masdea.

      @@rogerdaly6326 Barry plays electric rhythm guitars on both Foreplay and Long Time. Barry plays the huge power chords in Long Time and the lead solo is 100% Barry as well. After all of the litigation between Tom and Barry, Tom had to start being more forthright and factual regarding who did what on this record. Tom was forced to admit in Court that the lead solo on this song is in fact Barry. In the post litigation liner notes of the 2006 Scholz remaster of the debut Boston record, Tom had to get is facts straight and stop obfuscating the facts. Tom has also been forced to admit and give credit to Fran for playing bass on Foreplay. Tom also had to give credit for all of the arrangement work that Brad and Jim Masdea did on this record as well.
      Tom and his narratives of how this record came to be and who did what on it obfuscate the truth of who did what on this record.

    This debut album was recorded before there even was a band. All the instruments were played and recorded by Tom Shultz and the vocal tracks by Brad Delp later. When the album became an instant success, Tom had to put together a band, which was difficult because not many people had the musical levels of proficiency that Tom had, all by himself. The bands tours were difficult, as fans soon realized that the band was better in studio than live.

      @MrPolleyr The band as pictured on the back of the record recorded the song Let Me Take You Home before this record was finished and released.
      Tom does not play a single drum track on this record and the record is far better off for this fact. As is clearly documented in the liner notes of every copy of this record both the original and the Scholz remix-Sib plays drums on all tracks except for one and Jim Masdea plays drums on that track.
      Tom has never played the solo to Long Time and I challenge you to find a video of him doing so. Then look for videos of Barry playing the lead solo on Long Time It will become very apparent that Barry is the creator of the lead guitar solo on Long Time. This and a more complete listing of credits as to who did what on this record can be found in the post litigation liner notes of the 2006 Scholz remaster of the debut Boston record.
      All of Brads vocals were recorded by producer John Boylan at Capital Studios Studio C. This record was mixed at Westlake Studios by producer John Boylan, engineer Warren Dewey and Tom.
      Barry introduced Brad to Tom about the time that Tom auditioned to play keyboards in Barrys band sometime in 1969/1970. Barry played on Toms early demos and Brad sang on Toms demos and Barry, Brad and Tom played in bands together. The idea that Brad and Barry were just musicians that Tom found to sing on his demo and play this music live is both absurd and patently false

    This was a great choice to react to, especially if you've never heard it before. Brad Delp, the lead singer of Boston, is one of the great rock vocalists of all time. And most people don't even know his name. That whole first album by Boston is one of the best debut albums by any band ever. Just a killer album front to back. Thank you for this ✌🏻❤️

    First time I heard Boston was in 78, late at night on a small radio I hid under my sheets, my ear stuck to the loudspeaker. Mind blown... 3 years later, when I finally had the money, I bought Tom Sholtz’s Rockman pre-amp to get the Boston sound and play More Than a Feeling and the rest of the album. 40 years later, I still love Boston. My favorite song: Amanda.

My girlfriend was with me and the track Foreplay was apt.... Whoohoo.. Description of the guitarist is hope meets dorkiness... Scholz would never be described as a weilder of a weapon really.
