Just a mad genius in his basement mixing a magic potion. He then calls a friend to help express his accomplishment. At first no one knew, not even those in power. Then the world found out and was in shock and awe of his achievement. Decades later it's still potent.
Kind of anticipated the whole DIY ethos by a few decades...
He pretty much lays it out in 'Rock and Roll Band'
My first favorite song. Yes, I am from Boston. I will always love this tune. Great piece of music.
I have left my political groups on Facebook and improved my day on Daniel's channel. I wish I could be hearing them for the first time. But this is pretty close.
Sheila Swegler
You did the right thing.🙃
Political groups? That's fine as long as you understand what is happening around you.
No AUTOTUNE here - it's all BRAD DELP (R.I.P)
Back then singer had to have talent in singing.
Exactly. And totally agree. Not autotune, not sampling, not filters just real good music.
Even good singers today get lazy and use Autotune. Autotune ruins it every single time for me.
(...wait until he finds out that it was basically one guy who did all this in his basement...)
The comments have taught me the truth, and I am blown away by the sheer power of this song even without knowing that..... Now it is tenfold.
Boston was my 1st concert. They had just finished world tour and were so happy to be home again. We had the best show and were drenched afterwards. They sounded so fantastic! All the college girls were in love! We couldnt sleep!
Truly one of Rock's greatest compositions ever written....Boston is Absolutely Amazing
There aren't many advantages to being 80, but one is watching a young person enjoy the music I love and rock out to it.
Brad Delp, top 5 rock vocalist all-time. What an absolute monster debut album! Daniel, I was close to your exact age when this came out. It was like nothing we ever heard before. So glad you picked it!
The 1970s had a lot of that, brother!
The AM and FM radio airwaves were a veritable cornucopia of musical styles and genres and sounds and some great bands that refused to be pigeonholed......
Just incredibly talented people who put it all out there for us to enjoy!
@@andrewpetik2034 Was just saying to my husband how lucky we were to be teens in the 1970s ....so much great music!
This album was the soundtrack of 1976-77. Brilliant! Thanks for reacting.
We were about your age when hearing this for the first time...you even have the look of some of the guys! Made me feel great watching that with you - thanks :)
Boston, journey, and styx great trio bands, great guitar riffs, great singers and nice everything... yo
I would have said Boston, Styx and Kansas (and Queen). Journey is good, but I never had them quite up there.
Wow THANKS...you will LOVE them.
Gosh!!!!! This damn song!!!!!! Rocks your soul!
10:10
That keyboard in the background....repeating that almost cyclical bing ...bing.....almost like bells ringing gives me goosebumps....every... single ... time....
When I was your age, I was driving to school in my dad's yellow and black Maverick Grabber with a three-speed transmission, many a time blasting this on the 8-track player with the windows down. Probably the most amazing debut album of all time.
As for the meaning, it's like a lot of songs of the '70s. Basically, I'm a rock star, I gotta stay on the road going from town to town. It's been fun, honey, but I've been here too long so I got to get back on the road.
My first car was an orange and black Maverick Grabber.
@Thundertrain The original transmission was "3 on the tree," but that died and my dad just capped it off and put a new transmission in-line on the floor.
Possibly the best debut album of all time. Hope you work your way through the whole thing. Lovin’ the reactions. 🔥👍🏼
RIP Brad Delp. What a falsetto he had!
Honestly I'm not sure he used falsetto that much. He was a gifted tenor.
From one of the biggest debut albums of all time.
For my money its Appetite for Destruction....GN"FN"R!
I commented after your Yes reactions about envying you hearing such a classic for the first time. In fact I envy you hearing all the classics coming your way. You lucky, lucky boy.
Tom Sholtz is the band. Brad was added to sing.
But what a voice!!
Don't forget Jim Masdea on the drums.
“Carry on Wayward Son” -Kansas
Nice segway.
Same year same instruments. Different Great Brand. Admittedly better than Boston. Boston was all one guy, Tom Schultz
I envy someone hearing this for the first time. Too cool.
Foreplay was an instrumental TOM had way before the album production was taking place. Shows his musical chops. It did take a long time but he chased his dreams. Thank you tom sholtz
My new favorite channel don’t change a single thing thx
This whole album rocks. Please work your way through all of it. 👍
Truly not one bad song, only 2 other albums I can say that about is Rumours by Fleetwood Mac and Brain Salad Surgery by Emerson, Lake, And Palmer.
These guys played the Worcester Centrum as it was called then on their farewell tour. Worcester is just outside of Boston. It was the last show on the tour and they announced they would play as many concerts as they could sell out. I saw #9 out of 10. They were never my favorite band but they killed it live!
There were not clap tracks back in 1977....they actually were clapping on a track
Exactly as you said those claps are not recordings of claps. They were really clapping when they recorded the song back then.
My brother who died at 57 a few years back just Loved Boston, ty for taking me back
May he rest in peace.
@@DiconDissectionalReactions thank you, it does my heart good seeing someone your age finding this type of music. My daughter who is 23 learn to love old rack from rock band😂 and I learned to appreciate her music.
I was this man's age when Boston came on the scene. They first played small clubs around Massachusetts and on Cape Cod. Scholz' guitar tone, rhythms and leads were (and still are) a sonic drug. We listened to this music in our cars, on our record players and tape decks. Back then we didn't have video games so we spent free time listening to our favorite music over and over again. It inspired us to take up an instrument and become musicians ourselves. This was the golden age of rock. The music was organic. Scholz's sound was all analog not digital, just raw talent.
You're playing the tracts of my youth. Love it all. Southern rock was a big thing in the 70s. Allman Brothers Whipping Post, Lynyrd Skynyrd Free Bird, Molly Hatchet Flirtin with Disaster to start...
The whole album is amazing.
The album cover is actually guitars that look like spaceships!
Song is about Graduation , leaving home friends family ...basically everyone and everything you knew and setting off on a new life somewhere else
This isn't just a song, it's an out of body experience!
I love hearing: "gonna be listening to a band called 'Boston'? I've never heard them... Prepare for your life to change.
Love this song!
The largest selling debut album of all time (1976). 20 million. I think Guns n' Roses broke that record in the 80's.
Similarly "Spider/Portrait (He Knew)" by Kansas.
The Ultimate Garage Band
Epic, indeed!
Basically, this is a song about a guy who loves 'em and leaves 'em. He's been with this girl for a little while, they've had some fun, and now he feels it's time to part ways. "You'll forget about me after I've been gone". He's leaving her and doesn't intend to come back.
An epic album ... absolutely played it to death in college. Your reactions are also epic ... you've got talent!
Brad Delp never gets mentioned with the the Plant's, Daltreys, Rogers etc. in rock history, but clearly belongs right in there with them. He was a vocal prodigy.
I’d say Delp’s vocals are second only to Freddy Mercury in the rock genre. More.Than a Feeling is almost required for you to do at this point, lol, and Peace of Mind and Hitch a Ride are also spectacular. You won’t be sorry doing more Boston. Cheers!
PS - when I bought a 12-string years ago, I couldn’t stop playing More Than a Feeling.
I have no Idea what this song is about except to party. Great party song along with there other masterpieces. This group was the sound track to the 70s. Great times!
You do such a better job than other reaction channel’s
Now that you discovered Boston one of the best bands of the late 70's and early 80's you need to listen to More than a feeling and Hitch a ride.
M.I.T. schooled engineer from Ohio who had a vision and the rest is music history. RIP Brad.
THIS ONE! ONE OF THE GREATEST ROCK SONGS OF THE 70'S OR ANY DECADE FOR THAT MATTER..BRILLIANT INTRO AND THEN THE MAIN SONG ALL OF WHICH IS STRAIGHT FIRE..IF THIS WAS A MOVIE IT WOULD BE A TOP 50 MASTERPIECE,,THANKS FOR IT ALL BOSTON!!!
You're on a roll today! Another great song!
This song is so good, it’s epic, it’s awesome.
The sheer number of layers in this song blows my mind. Two electric guitars dueling back and forth plus and acoustic just for fun . (All Tom S I know). A layer of bass and drums with the B3 organ bringing the Bach riffs. Every instrument getting its share of the spotlight. Finally Brad Delp singing lead plus harmonizing with himself with additional layers.
@AnthonyT50 Barry is playing electric rhythm guitars on both of these songs. In addition Barry plays the lead solo on Long Time. The organ Tom used for this record was actually an M3
Excellent review, thus, you've earned a new subscriber!!.....😁👍👌💥
Please react to Boston singing “More than a Feeling”, “Amanda”
Hey Daniel, There's freedom and the great outdoors, just outside of her front door. Great album, 1976 was a good year for new bands and music, Van Halen being just one, Boston being another. Eddie's with the Father now. Cool channel, I like it. Best from Oregon, C
And to think..this music came out in the early 70's...pure geniuses and way ahead of their time. Nice to see the younger generation appreciate the old sckool music. 😎✌
Musical foreplay leading into the album.
That first album was fire 🔥
Great song(s) ! Great album from top to bottom.
I was just starting college when this album EXPLODED into existence.
I knew Tom Sholtz and he was a genius and did all of the music parts himself in his basement. Then of course he added the great singer Bard Delp (RIP) whose voice was just amazing. To do this on the road he had a very tough time finding the other members of the band but he finally did. One of the greatest bands of all time in my opinion!
the clapping was done by actual human beings ..Ikr! check out Rick Beato's breakdown of this song ..he isolates the instruments used the tracks ..it's so amazing how this album was made
Great reaction to Boston!!! To give a little history, founder Tom Scholz basically recorded this entire first album in his home studio. He brought in Brad Delp for vocals. Scholz has a Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering from MIT, and this first album is considered one of the greatest produced of all time. Boston added more members for the record company and touring. This first album became the biggest selling debut album in rock history and held that title until it was surpassed by Guns and Roses Appetite for Destruction in 2018. Off the first album I HIGHLY recommend reacting to "Smokin" (it is definitely that!!), "More Than a Feeling", and "Hitch a Ride". Also "Don't Look Back" off the second album. Great that you have found Boston, and have just opened up a huge treasure chest of music!!!
Jim Masdea played the drums before Sib Hashian.
Hitch a ride was the only professional studio mastered track on the album, the rest was straight out of Tom's Hideaway studio, the record company didn't do anything to the rest of the tracks, they were that good. All these years later and to this day they still can't do any better, you can't improve upon perfection.
@@jcbass2u Let Me Take You Home was recorded in its entirety at The Record Plant LA. This record was mastered by Wally Traugott at Capital Studios. Also, producer John Boylan had to do some production work on Toms drum tracks before the record could be mixed. In addition, not one of the tracks from the demo that Tom submitted to Epic and producer John Boylan was used on this record.
You are correct, I miss named the track also. I still think it is by far one of the best debut albums of all time. thanks for correcting my error. I'm old.@@neechee5150
The music for this entire album was recorded in Tom Scholz' basement. He designed the Rockman guitar pedal and a ton of other gear. This album is simply epic.
The final song was recorded by the full band in an LA studio and is why it sounds different.
I'm so happy I found you on YT! Love your reactions. Got a couple more for you to check out that you might like. Stevie Wonder; I Wish, Chicago; 25 or 6 to 4, Electric Light Orchestra; Can't Get it Out of My Head, David Bowie; Fame, Joan Baez; Diamonds and Rust, Kiki Dee; I Got the Music in Me. That will keep you going for a bit! Heeheehee
Epic! It is almost perfection as is the album as a whole. That is how I heard this for the first time when it came out, the whole album. Every song is very good and worth listening to.
This is the first LP I ever owned, what an awesome compilation of music. JUST found out in the comments he did this in his basement, WOW!!! Also of serious musical note, this was ALL INSTRUMENTS, NO synth, NO digital, nothing but instruments, they were very proud of that fact. "Clap track" LMFAO!!!!!! That kind of stuff didn't exist in the early 70s, it was the band recording another extra track in the studio, just clapping their hands! "foreplay" is the beginning overture, the intro music. I never really got into the lyrics, it was just an awesome tune for when it came out...WAAYYYYY before their time, but I loved it and rocked it quite often. Great reaction!
I was 6 in 1976.....I remember Clearly the first time I heard ''More than a Feeling".....and it's been my favorite rock song to this very day....excellent reviews and I enjoy your calm and kind approach to who's watching you. Thanks young man!
Good news, every song on this album is crazy good.
The story goes, the A&R man from Epic records who signed Boston played his boss the song "Rock And Roll Band" over the phone from their "demo tape" (which was the actual album, but with the songs in a different order). When it was done, he told the boss "THE WHOLE ALBUM IS THIS GOOD ! ! ! ! ! ! "
I'd say that "Boston" is the only homemade album to go Diamond (that's ten times Platinum), but I'm pretty sure "Don't Look Back" did that well too. The press used to call Boston albums "tackle boxes" - because all the songs were full of hooks. You could do reactions to this whole album, then follow it with all of "Don't Look Back" (I've always maintained that the song "Don't Look Back" is the perfect record - there isn't a single aspect that could've been done better). You may never find music that you like nearly as much.
As to "where have I been?", you've been in your youth, and haven't been exposed to a lot of music that predates you. Happily, unlike most of your peers,you are doing something about it. I'm enjoying your journey so far, so keep on movin' ! !
Enjoyed reading your comments. I'm 54 & love 2 watch the different ages reactions.
No synthesizers were used in the recording of any of Bostons' music! All effects were produced on real instruments modified with equipment made by Tom Scholz. There was no "CLAP TRACK", that was produced by real human hands coming together on unison. (Guys clapping!). Tom is a genius!
Yep gotta so Smokn 🎸✌️
sum of the cleanest music to put in the tape deck in there time
It’s not a clap track, it’s actual clapping, including Tom’s then wife.
Organic
How many of you remember EXACTLY where you were the first time you heard this? For me, it was my freshman year of college, 1983, with a roommate who knew a metric sh*t tonne more about music than me and introduced me to this song (not to Boston... I already knew the standard Boston songs...the hits). I think I made him play it 4 or 5 times in a row. Such good times!
The best debut album ever produced there isn't a bad song on it or even their second album you could say the same thing
Arguably one of the greatest debut songs of the Rock era?
It is Barry Goudreau playing lead on Longtime...
it's about you either win or you learn losing is only a state of mind
Here's another one I played in the '90s. Absolute crowd slayer. About as dramatic a song as I ever played.
i bought a guitar specifically to try learn the solo to Boston's "Hitch a Ride"
It's awesome to watch young people appreciate my generation's music. I saw these guys in '78 and 2001. Brad Delp had the most pure vocal range.
The genius of Tom Sholz and Brad Dell.
Awesome Amigo! Next hitch a ride. Might be worth a listen
As mentioned, Tom Scholz not only wrote all the songs, played most of the instruments, but he invented and built the recording equipment. The sound effects are all "performed" on instruments, circuits built, or things like leaky transistors in those circuits. The bass notes you wondered about at the beginning are foot pedals of an organ.
Bands back then did their own clapping - see the video of The Who making "Who Are You".
In my opinion, this song is about him leaving behind his corporate world and venturing out on that long road on his own to make music. The business of the band did come back to find him. I met Brad and other band members after a concert, but Tom got busy after the concert with urgent band business.
Check out: "Hitch A Ride", "Peace of Mind", "Man I'll Never Be", and "Livin' For You".
@seann1857 Exactly what specific recording equipment did Tom invent/build during the recording process for this record? Tom did not invent the Sculley 12 track. Tom did not invent or build the Shure SM 57 mic he used to record the guitars. The bass notes that he mentions during Foreplay are actually a clavinet not the organ.
Keep it up Daniel!!! Love your analysis on these songs. ;)
I’m sure that back then, there was no “clap track” to speak of. Real hands coming together in the studio, I’m thinkin.
Yep. Put me in a time machine and send me back
If you go down the Boston rabbit hole, check out Hitch a Ride. Great guitar solo
Also Man I'll Never Be. Their most under-rated song
Yet another album that every song on it is awesome. That's the same with their next album, Boston rocks.
Correct...Foreplay was the introduction 2 the song. Ya gotta try Rock & Roll Band & SMOKIN...EXCELLENT BY BOSTON. BRAD DELP WAS THE AWESOME LEAD SINGER.
Can't wait to see you do "Hitch A Ride" Wow RIP Brad Delp, one of the Greatest Vocalists of All Time
Timeless voice. 2 bad he killed himself. RIP Brad DELP. I love his long scream SINGING. He 2 me is ONE OF the best vocalist I've EVER heard; based on unique voice SOUND; RANGE & heartfelt delivery of the songs. Love your reactions. They are always enjoyable bcuz you care so passionstely about music. ❤👍🇺🇸😊
I love how you appreciate the full composition of these songs. Wish you could have seen them in concert: they sounded even better live than on their albums. Although, by the 90s, Brad couldn't always hit those high notes. He said, "If I point at the youngster next to me during a song, then you'll know that HE hit the high note and I didn't."
The instrumental intro was the FOREPLAY, before the.... yeah. You get it.
This entire album was totally epic -- no bad tracks, some all-time great. A glorious flash in the pan.
Look very closely at the album art. Are you sure those are space ships?
Also, when this album came out, it's hard to explain the impact it had. Every teenager had this song blasting from their car as they raced out of the parking lot after school. It was such a new sound. everyone absolutely loved it.
You used the term clap track this album is pre computer. It was recorded on a 12 track analog recorder in his basement using everything to its fullest potential. Tom Scholz has an engineering degree from MIT all these sounds come from equipment he built
Enjoy this album
And it still sounds better than any of the crap they produce with their pitch filters. Boston, Kansas, Yes, Journey and a few other bands were the Bachs and Beethovens of our age
You just got schooled, dude! Dunno how you went your whole life without hearing this song!
Definitely in my top 10 albums, just phenomenal in every way. Brad Delp's vocals are among a select few who are off the charts good (among Geddy Lee, Jeff Lynn, SRV, Bob Seger, Rodger Hodgson as well)
Great song..
