Brad Delp

I haven't updated this blog in quite a while, but feel the need to do so now. I am pretty bummed over the suicide of Brad Delp. Those first two Boston albums were in heavy rotation on my turntable when I was in high school. The main attraction for me was the great vocals of Brad Delp.

The third album was good as well, though didn't match the first two in my mind. Brad did a lot of things over the years, including singing with the band RTZ and singing on Barry Goudreau's solo album (which when you couple Barry's guitar with Brad's vocals and the drumming of Boston's Sib Hashian, made parts of it sound a lot like Boston).

Clip #1 is poor quality, but it is "Dreams" from that Barry Goudreau album. If you have never heard it, and love Boston, you will really dig it.

Clip #2 is a live take of "Let Me Take You Home Tonight" from 2004.

Clip #3 features the original lineup of Boston...the promo for "More Than A Feeling".

Rest In Peace, Brad.
