Boston: Walk on - Flawless Cut (no sudden audio cuts)

- I listen to this song all the time. It's one of my favorites. But the one thing that gets to me is the little sections of silence in between the individuals songs (in case you weren't aware, this whole medley is four songs combined into one). So I decided to edit out the silence and mash it all together into one, flawless, seamless, listening experience.
(This video is basically just for me, but if you like it, more power to you!) - เพลง
Boston is one of the most successful bands in rock and roll of History every song they made was perfect song writing every song was a masterpiece
My go-to song for stress testing and grading an audio system. If a system can play all the intricacies of this song... it's bad ass. Truly the best band of their era.
Duke Bacher I'd love to find this on vinyl
@@stevendegroot1543 i have it and it's killer!!!!!!!!!!
I have this on my MP3 player. It's a great song to lift weights to!
Damn sure is! From THE most underrated stonewalled unfairly treated and screwed over band ever! RIP Brad and Boston!
@@NYVET48TFW I'll admit, I'm not much of a fan of anything after "Walk On"- I feel like they lost their "je ne sais quoi" (defined as : "a quality that cannot be described or named easily.")
As for the thousand views, I'm fairly certain that I've done about 100 of 'em...
It's criminal that this video only has about a thousand views, the cuts in the other versions drive me crazy.
ME TOO!!!!!!@ STOP THE MADNESS... JUST GOES TO SHOW NOOOO RESPECT TO THE COMPOSITION OF SUCH A GREAT FEAT OF MUSICAL GENIUS. SO VERY SAD TO RUIN WITH CUT-INS.😡😠🤬
You know what drives me crazy? Ads in the middle of the video. Who can I trust??!!
@@StelltheBear honestly id rather have cuts then ads during the cuts... defeats the whole purpose

I listened to this back in High School in the late 90's to pep me up during my studies! This song (and whole album) deserved far more media attention than it got. An absolutely phenomenal, yet underrated mastery of perfection! Rock it Boston!
where are you in life today do you have a good job
Yes, and Fran Cosmo never got the credit he deserved on this. His vocals are phenomenal!
David, completely agree! Unreal song. Unreal when I saw it in concert in '97. Simple, classic, typical Tom Scholz.
I used it to engage mu guns and hype myself B4 getting laid back then! OOOH!!❤️❤️❤️😳
This is Boston's most under rated album to date. Sad to say, it was the last album Tom produced that was pure "Boston". He went soft and let others write the music. This is Boston's last stand.
Where's Brad?...lmfao...
This was indeed an awesome album! My friend Vinnie Moore didn’t even know it existed. I shared it with him and he was just like Whoah!
I'm a diehard no Brad, no Boston... however I must admit this album is a showcase of Tom's genius and masterful hear for a brilliant rock sound.
You mean, you’ve seen Tom 32 times 😂
@@willgrady9621well, Tom offed him
This is genuinely up there with the Abbey Road melody. Boston in general is *SOOOO* underrated it should be illegal
@amcflfan45 yes, underrated as they're not in the R&R hall of fame. What a fucking travesty. Just shows what utter nonsense is the "hall" to begin with.
Not really underrated, they just underperformed. Their debut was one of the best selling debuts by anyone anywhere at any time, and is a flawless work of the period. Everything that followed, though, went further and further downhill. This cut here is one notable exception.
Agreed
The Walk-On Medley is better composed and more epic than even Bohemian Rhapsody! This song should be up there in the public's memoirs as that song!
@@WayPastCrazy2525 “CORPORATE AMERICA” For Ya !!!!
Boston is my absolute favorite all time band. I've had the honor of seeing them 32 times in concert over the years. BOSTON ROCKS!!!!
I am sooooooo jealous.
32 times?? You're a legend. I was never able to see them once.
Dude!!!!👍👍
You know there are other bands.
And nobody but you cares that you were ever at any of those concerts.
If there's only ever one thing I get from my Dad, I'd be happy if its just our mutual love for Boston.
Amen.
Same.
Boston was one of the best bands back then their first album I heard I went crazy I said this band's awesome I had to get all their albums and I did everyone is a masterpiece
Showing my ignorance here. I just discovered they made 6 albums. I'm staggered. I thought they stopped at 3. On the other hand, look at the magnificent stuff I now get to hear for the first time!
This specific song that was posted that’s like over 12 minutes is like putting the puzzle back together and unveiling a masterpiece within masterpieces, live on Boston!!!
That guitar tone is awesome, ROCK ON TOM SCHOLZ!!!
Criminally underrated album! This should have been the second album!
One of the greatest songs Tom ever wrote and arranged (especially the instrumental in the middle...that passage I'll put up against ANYTHING Queen ever came up with)... and yet, this entire album never gets its due because **whiny ingrateful fan voice** 'Uhhhh huh huhhh, no Brad on this.' Grow up. Brad helped write the main part of the song.
Yessir. The organ and the guitar playing together is like heaven.
Since you mention Queen, this track is definitely comparable to something like Brighton Rock or The Prophet's Song with the big instrumental sections and harmonies. This track is seriously a banger.
Put on the headphones, crank it up to 10, close your eyes and actually listen to what these guys are doing. Phenomenal!
Truly the best way to listen to it. And NOT earbude. Headphones so the sound has room to breath
I'm pretty sure that I wore out 3 or 4 8 tracks of Bostons first album spending time with my high school sweetheart in the back seat of my 69 Chevy Impala SS. Tom Sholtz is a musical genius and this is a fucking masterpiece...
Boston saved my life. I love this band more than anything
Tom Scholz plays guitar like a God . With his own awesome style and personal sound proves it. Boston forever ✌
Yessir. Especially with him inventing the rockman and stuff. Hes the man when it comes to innovation. And he can play that les paul like a god.
Boston has never made a bad song! Each one is a masterpiece!
Their last album was a musical atrocity - this didn’t age well
Too much copy/paste, I fear. @@jeffschamel7210
Seeing this performed in 96 on tour with Fran Cosmo AND Brad Delp was truly an amazing experience.
Not to mention that when they toured for this album, they brought a PIPE ORGAN on tour with them.
The least portable instrument on the planet and they toured a rock and roll show with one.
They raised that sucker up behind the band at the appropriate moment, and if you already have a pipe organ, then why not have a cloak and dry ice fog as well? I didn't appreciate it at the time but it to date is still the most amazing thing I've seen in a live rock show.
Was unreal!!
I swear, I love Boston.
I wish Brad had been here for the creation of this album.
He is greatly missed.
7:23 is where the perilous battle begins
the hero is on the ropes but triumph will be hers/his
just close your eyes and envision your best in a game
in an adventure or create the scenario in your mind as the music unfolds its power.
If you're lucky, tears of gratitude will fill your eyes.
This is a powerful piece and Boston is likely the only ones who could've made it.
He actually was still around for the creation of this album, as well as the greatest hits in 1997 and Corporate America in 2002. He has writing credits on this song, and his voice can be heard singing harmony with Fran Cosmo, as well as backup vocals in different spots during the song. He was busy with his RTZ side project when this album was recorded, thus he didn't have much input on it.
he did sing lead on the following 2 albums.
Brad was still very alive. He wss just on outs with Tom.
I don't listen to Boston, but my friend sent this to me, and holy shit, what an underrated track. I'm genuinely surprised it's not more well known.
Tom was trained in classical music at a young age which is why his music always reminded me of the classical masters like Bach and Beethoven. The same song structure that mystified audiences in the 1700's is in play here when Boston burst on the scene in 1976.
Soooo true! Third Stage in particular is so symphonic!
Except for TH-cam inserting an ad at the crescendo!
Thanks YT! Your timing really SUX.
That's they're way of trying to get you to get youtube red. Its really annoying. :P
When you're with your GF about to finish and the doorbell rings
Get ad blocker, silly.
Does yt choose the worst places for ads on purpose? Has happened many times
@@austinosburn2081 makes sense
I can’t believe I never listened to this album, it’s incredible
I can't believe you never did either.
When I want to feel freedom, I take the doors off my 30-year-old Jeep Wrangler, rev her up, ditch the safety belt and turn the vol up max on this classic. Singing every word of the lyric, in perfect time, in perfect tune. Your flawless version is FLAWLESS and just upped the freedom meter another inch. Thank you, man. No speeding, sharp eyes and cherished freedom.
"If you want to win the game then you gotta learn how to play the game." The truth of life.
One of the baddest songs ever written! Pure 🔥!
This is just an outstanding piece of work.
Yes it is.
It was great live with both Fran Cosmo AND Brad Delp singing it
Best thing boston ever did
I could not agree more
@@mikem.7921 I don’t no if’n I would go that far ? Yes BOSTON is/was a Good Band !! Personally I believe that the (1) Thing that has/had hurt them the most was the Loooong Wait that we had to go through between “Don’t Look Back” and “Third Stage” witch by the way was a very Appropriately Titled Album !! When WE the FANS had to wait so long for the 3rd album to be released I think that everyone was expecting more of the same stuff ? Witch we did not get, to our great surprise ? It was a good album, it just took some time to get use to !! Anywho, if’n Mr. Schultz was not such a PERFECTIONIST we wouldn’t have gotten The Great Sound and Songs that have made them The Awesome Band that they were and still are today !!!!!!! 🤘 Rock On 🤘 Tom 🤘 !!!!! Didn’t set out to go on for so long, Sorry !!
This medley was actually a variation on the theme of the extended live version of Smokin back in the 70s. The absence of Brad Delp may have led some to believe this was the end of Boston, but a year after Delp left to join Barry Goudreau and RTZ, Scholz started work on the Walk On album.
I can definitely hear the similarities. About the time when Tom was playing that huge pipe organ.
can you source that? because that's not what Tom says as far as i know.
That makes sense because I swear parts of this song sound like Smokin, and the first time I heard it, I was kind of confused.
@@GmenAgain Look up Smokin' live in Long Beach, or Smokin' live at Giant's Stadium 1979, and both have some of the same themes here.
Brad Delp helped to write the two sections of the medley with lyrics (Walk On, and Walk On (Some More).
The album was started when Brad was still in the band. The Barry Goudreau album was long before Walk On was started (1980 or 81). RTZ was done when Brad left Boston, after Third Stage and the tour were finished.
I've got several of the live recordings, Long Beach (the full show), Jones Beach, Giant Stadium, etc... and none if them have anything like Walk On during Smokin'. The is an extended, incredible solo during Smokin, but nothing like this.
They did do a long improv sorta song called She's a Looker, but that was a blues song that was awesome. They did a very long improv part in the middle of More Than A Feeling. I can hear little parts that could be in the WO Medley, but not much.
This is genuinely a perfection of the original - splicing these together into the single production that these should be, conceptually, to begin to begin with. Beautisimo!!!
Just as the man says: Flawless cut.
Thank you, Mitcheroo! The way it should be.
Without a doubt - the best Rock n Roll song of all time! Kicks ass in so many ways ......
The epitome of all their playing went so underrated. This song is so damn epic.
So nice listening to this uninterrupted! Love listening to Boston without being reminded Dominos is selling pizza 20% off or state farm insurance could save me 500 bucks a year.. Just Boston! Thanks👍👍
Holy shit !!! The whole album is great!!! So underrated!!
Thank you for this, so pleased to find the tracks without those annoying gaps, I have the original on cassette and it plays the way it should.
Tom Sholz and Jeff Lynn are the Beethoven and Bach of our time!
Interesting analysis of the two Earthlings. Well put Human. I agree !
this is like the best pieces of all the great Boston songs put into one amazing medley. This song is just amazing in every way and never ceases to amaze me
Frans voice continued that high energy sound that this band thrived on. Brad was by far the best all round rock voice to grace the stage but there was always will be much to say on Fran Cosmo's contribution to Rock music !
Agreed
Going back many years, but this was first heard by me in 1997 when we went to see Boston live in Milwaukee, Wi in 1997. At the time, we didn't know that Bradley Delp was back, and when he came out to sing this song, the crowd erupted......we were graced with his presence, and what a performance he and Tom gave us.....they deserve a place in the Rock n' Roll HOF....
Take a look around
And tell me what you can see
I guess that all depends on
Exactly what you want it to be
Don't know all the answers
Everybody's running away, hey
If you want to win the game
Then you know it's a shame not to play
Everybody gets carried away
And everybody's got
Something to say to remind you
Keep looking behind you
It's never easy to see
What's it takes to believe
Right from wrong?
Never going back where I've gone
Walk on, walk on
Walk on, yeah, yeah
Walk on, yeah, yeah
Walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah
Walk on, just walk on, yes
🥰 Love you Bro , see you very soon .
HALLELUYAH
Rejoice and again i say Rejoice .
He has yall Bro 🌫️
This song is epic!! Boston at their absolute best! Been a fan since the beginning. Saw them once, Vancouver BC. 1978. Cheers and rock on everyone!! ✌️
I saw them live in 2013, honestly still great even without Brad. RIP
Thanks so much for this
My dad got me into this when it came out. I had the CD but it got stolen years ago. I remember my dad inroducing me to this in 94... Pointing at the CD player amazed at how it went to the next track mid song lol. Nice to have it all together again with no interruptions!
Dude when I was 5-6 my dad used to jam to fuck outta this and caught somewhere in time by maiden when we used to go bowling ,fast forward to me bein 12-13 and taking a nose dive into GBH ,Black flag ,DRI ,millions of dead cops I put this stuff on the back burner now I'm 30 I jam the fuck outta this and Frank Marino ,maiden ,and later sabbath( never say day ,vol 4 ) and I'm back to that time when I was 5-6 Hahahahahahah
My college roommate got it and it took a moment but I warmed up quickly and then seeing ot live on the tour and the Greatest Hits tour with Fran AND Brad singing it was epic
basically the best rock ever created, onlyTelegraph Road could come close
Yep
Good observation, different type of artists, Tom is much more creative with sound Knopfler is just a good guitarist, very good!
"Take a look around tell me what you can see". I can see a "Deere" crossing sing...
Anthem masterpiece and one of the best Hyperspace pedal pick slides in most of the studio catalog I believe. Nothing cracks quite as great as that one at 9:03 ! Maybe it's the huge build up then ending in that pick slide that makes it even more awesome.
Who is watching this in the opening of 2021??
If there's such a thing as an eargasm then this epic by Boston will surely make it happen!! Play it LOUD!!!
its called Frisson!
I can identify Boston music in a second,easy cause they are MASTERPIECES of Rock!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Radio has survived for a hundred years. With only 2 consistent reasons to interrupt anything. The weather and the President! At this rate youtube wont live to see 50!
2:00 Just marking this for myself. Thanks, dude.
he is doing some classical - jazz type genre
This is so criminally overlooked that it's simply unfair. 7:42-10:00 is one of their best moments of their career. How did this not get more popular, even in the Boston circles???
I have 3,219,841,728 favorites. This is one of them. So it's one of my favorites.
To this day I crank up this song in my car and jam
One of my all-time favorites, from one of my all-time favorite bands. Thanks for the "flawless" version.
I forgot I had this CD. I jammed this mofo like a mofo in like '96.
After the first 2 albums, this is my next one. Better than third stage
Seriously. Holy cow. I’m just speechless.
Omg this song is insanely badass. Rocks your mind and takes you out of this world to a whole other dimension 💗💗💗💗
Fran Cosmo and the whole Boston band ROCKS, FOREVER!!!!! Has to be my all time favorite band!
Saw 'Boston' with Fran in a tiny casino in Reno. No other original members that I recall. It was still pretty damn good.
Good Job Beer Baron ! ! Gettin rid of the section cuts makes all the difference or else it sounds like an 8 track tape lol.. I hated trying to burn this medley to a CD back in the day .. I purchased this album with Yes Talk at the same time & the song Endless Dream did the same dam'n thing .. I wanted them back to back on a CD & the phucking sectioning for both songs just pissed me off LOL..
I was fortunate enough to catch this played on the radio in its entirety back when the album first dropped! I IMMEDIATELY ran out and bought the CD!
Just plain AWESOMENESS!
Those guitars are BLEEDING !
amen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was a big fan of Boston. Saw them after Third Stage came out. I remember after playing this disc,the Walk On medley was probably the best song on there. I don't remember this getting much airplay on the rock stations in chicago. And now I remember the vocals were not Brads. Not just Brads vocals missing but the original rhythm and bass player too. The three albums were probably my faves.
The song should never be cut off should play right on . Footing fever
Thanks for editing these they sound great together
I wish I could give this a thousand likes!!!!
Boston is simply awesome and always will be!
One of the greatest pieces of music ever
this is the shit! I LOVE IT!
Respect ✊ for somebody else’s beliefs, right or wrong we should all walk on , not your life. Fact why be involved in somebody’s happiness. If invited respect listen first respect always. Does not concern you passing judgment never did anybody any good 😌. You just think? What makes you who you are and tick. That’s it quite creating problems , I don’t have to choose you or 🤔 like you I’m me go be you, very simple. Let’s all understand beliefs because it’s not for everybody, run your own business it’s called life, respect ✊
Hidden Track of Boston ❤
I love this entire CD…kick ass stuff…puts ya in a good mood.
Can't stop Listening to this amazing song!
IMHO, this is Boston's best song of songs...or best whateveryouwanttocallit. No one had (or still has) a sound like Tom Scholz. Few could match his writing ability, leave alone playing. This is often on repeat during my workday or while exercising or while sleeping (JK!). Seriously, it is that good!
I like what you did here. Super cool edit! We need more like this! keep up the good work.
Excellent job, many thanks.
Truely a masterpiece
Literally gave me chills
MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Brilliant!
thanks for making the effort, great mix, extraordinary rock music..
never even noticed that all the songs are in the same time signature.
Awesome Music
Boston, one of the best
I saw them live in 94! Absolutely amazing!
First run through the album I was unsure.
Now, brilliant
love this band
Masterpiece!
This song just fires me up love it
Fuck yeah
Now I'm 80,s Metal... Boston Just ...... Yes!!!!!
Tom's outstanding playing!!😁🔥 Mid 1990's Boston!!😄
Amazing for relaxation 🤩
Killer tune,its got it all
Thank you for this. Lost my albums.
Thank you for this flawless version!! I'm in the process of making an onscreen lyrics video for the entire Walk On Medley 🙂❤️
