    This song was my and my late wife's favorite. She passed of cancer way to young. This song has such a different meaning for me now because of the lyric, "When I'm tired and thinking cold, I hide in my music, forget the day, and dream of a girl I used to know, I closed my eyes and she slipped away,,,she slipped away.
    The kids and I miss you Krissy,,,we know you're watching over us.❣️

    Brad Delp was the greatest most underrated, under-appreciated singer of our time. He had the natural talent to crush it in any genre of music if he wanted to. Brad, sang like an Angel to us, now he sings to the Angels as One. R.I.P. ❤

      Yes, yes, yes. I think it's criminal that Brad is so under-rated and under-appreciated. He had every bit as much range as Freddie, but with far better pitch control, and a more soothing, beautiful tone.

    In the recordings, Brad did all the vocals. All, so those harmonies is him. The even higher part in the outro? Him. One of the top voices of all time, and to those of us who knew him personally, one of the most beautiful humans to walk the earth.

    • @sethbaruti4367
      @sethbaruti4367 16 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

      I got to meet him once (one and a half times, sort of, but it's a long story). He was so incredibly humble, nice, and down to earth. I'm so glad I waited around at the Glens Falls show, because he tragically took his own life not overly long afterward. I have never been a hero worship sort of person, but I always said that if there was ever one person, it was Brad. I've always loved singing, and always been drawn to the vocalist in bands. Brad was, hands down, my favorite male singer ever. His tone is so velvety smooth. Now, hearing this song or "A Man I'll Never Be" often brings me to tears. He was a one-of-a-kind talent that I personally think was a superior singer to the person often talked about as the best male singer. Freddy was a better showman, without a doubt, but I will die on the hill of saying Brad had the superior voice.

    Tom Scholz had a real knack for blending Brad's voice into the guitars. On that one really soaring note, it seems like Brad's voice fades out into the guitar, but it doesn't . It is still there, just perfectly blended in. If you watch Rick Beato's analysis of the song, he plays the isolated vocal track and you can hear Brad actually hitting - and holding - that note.

    For come context, I was in high school when this song came out. This album blew EVERYBODY away because nothing else sounded like it - and nothing after ever really did either. It was one of the biggest debut albums in history, primarily because the guitarist was also the songwriter and producer, much like Todd Rundgren (look him up). Tom Scholz is a genius in every way possible - he thinks up sounds and layers that nobody else can imagine, he designs circuitry and built a studio to create sounds that nobody else has heard, and he finds some of the best singers and musicians available to realize that vision.
    As others have pointed out, Tom Scholz is an MIT trained engineer and an all-out genius. That guitar doubling and harmonizing that you're hearing isn't multi-track recording, no, he invented a circuit to make that sound. More importantly, this was all analog - digital was still a few years off. This is, without a doubt, the pinnacle of nerd-rock. Just a smart guy in his basement, writing, playing and producing songs that had no equal at that time.
    The cherry on top the ice cream is that he was also a musical prodigy - the way the melody is traded back forth between the guitar and the lead singer is flawless. It's essentially structured a duet and there's a constant flow between the two voices. Again, nobody had ever sounded like this before. There were great artists with very talented singers and musicians in this era: Elton John, Linda Ronstadt, The Eagles, Stevie Wonder at his apex (swoon), Fleetwood Mac. Disco was big, Funk was in full throttle (Earth, Wind and Fire!), Punk was right around the corner - BUT NOBODY SOUNDED LIKE THIS. Nobody ever heard this before. This was techie, it was harmonic and it was without a doubt rock and roll. Minds were blown.

    This entire album was written by Boston founder & guitarist, Tom Scholz. Not only did he write the music, but he recorded it in a studio he'd built in his basement, & played most of the instruments for the recording. Not only being the musical genius behind Boston, Tom is also a graduate of MIT & the founder of Scholz Research & Development and create the Rockman which is a portable headset you can plug your guitar into for practicing without disturbing others.

    Brad Delp was a one of a kind voice and front man. Tom Scholz is a masterful songwriter, surrounded himself with Brad Delp, Barry Goudreau, Sib Hashian as the band Mother's Milk. Their first album was mostly recorded in Scholz's home, he took those home recorded tracks (tapes) to Epic Records and they used those to mix the master. Renamed the band Boston and added Fran Sheehan on bass (on two songs which were added).
    Scholz played electric guitar, acoustic guitar, added special guitar effects (his rock man), bass, organ, clavinet, percussion, and was the producer and engineer on the first album.
    Scholz as a guitarist is melodic and creates a soundscape he actually started writing music in 1969 - a lot of people do not know Foreplay was written then. He's a mit grad and experimented with sound and created Boston's signature sounds.

    I've often thought if an alien landed here and asked for just one example of what rock music is this would be the song I chose to play for him. The video is footage shot another time, but the music is the studio version... all of the instruments were played by Tom Schulz and pieced together at the studio... he called his friend Brad Delp to do all the vocals and background harmonies, so the song you just heard was two guys an a lot of track work. When the album caught on they hired musicians to fill out the band so they could tour. I'm sure the mustaches played a role in their auditions 😊

    Great reaction and thanks for sharing. Brad I believe, sang all the vocals on this song. He sang lead vocals, backup vocals and harmonies and of course layers of his own voice were used. Most of the instruments were played by Tom Scholz. Tom wrote most of the songs, arranged them, was the sound and recording engineer and album producer. Tom played acoustic guitar, 12 string acoustic guitar, lead electric guitar, rhythm electric guitar, bass guitar and organ on this album. Sib played drums. The performance you are seeing is the touring band formed after the album was already made by Tom, Brad and Sib and a few others in Tom's basement. The only members of the band signed to a record contract were Tom and Brad. Tom had to form a band, teach them the music then play it for the record executives before the contract was finalized. But, most of that information is third hand and shared over almost 50 years ago. This album is the best debut album of all time. Every song is good or better, most are great or spectacular. Enjoy. I would recommend actually doing a reaction to the entire album song by song. You will get crazy numbers of views. Thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge.

No one said a word until about ten miles down the road and our lead vocalist said in a teary voice, “That was f’king incredible!” And he was right. Bless you, little sprite, for giving me back that night from 50 years ago.❤❤❤❤

      Hey Jamie, i didn’t realize Brad was born in Peabody. I grew up in Danvers and my oldest brother graduated with Brad from Danvers High School in 1969. I wonder how old he was when moved to Danvers. He was definitely one of the greatest male vocalists.

    Brad is one of those iconic singers from the 70/80's and Tom's vision for the sound gave the band what a lot of folks would say is a perfect album, and they followed it up with another great album. Boston is one of those bands whose instrumentation is just as incredible as Brad's vocalizations. You could spend a long time describing and discussing both topics and how they mesh together. Thanks for covering this one.

    I was a teenager playing in a garage band when "More Than A Feeling" came out. Our singer about killed himself trying to hit those high notes. We guitarists were scrambling, trying to figure out how to get Boston's cool guitar sound. There was no Internet to look stuff up back then.

    Brad Delp was the singer. He recorded all the vocal tracks and layered them on the studio recording. The lead guitarist is Tom Scholz and this entire album was recorded as a demo in his basement. He created most of the technology that was used in the recording. This was also the band's first album, and it is highly regarded as a masterpiece. One of the best songs and best albums ever. Check out the rest of the album.

    Brad did ALL the vocals on this album- harmony, back up, etc. He probably did do some doubling as well, just to make it sound bigger. Tom wanted things just right!
    And then the debut dropped, and blew everyone's minds.
    There was no "band" when this was recorded. Just Brad on vocals, Sib on drums, and Tom playing everything else. They had to put a band together after, so they could tour, lol.

    • @zooks527
      @zooks527 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Sib did all the drums with the exception of "Rock and Roll Band", which had Jim Masdea on drums. Which was fitting, as the song is written around Masdea's experiences of coming up in a band.

      I will remember that night forever. I'd had friends over until rather late (at least Midnight), and after they left, normally my wife and I would go to bed, but I just had a weird feeling, and felt compelled to get on my computer. When I saw the news, I sobbed. Even though I didn't really know Brad (though I did get to meet him once, and saw him with both Boston and RTZ numerous times), it felt like losing a close family member. He was the only person I ever really felt was an "idol".

    One thing I love about your reactions as myself being a musician and a composer and a studio guy and whatnot of many years, but also a kid when this exploded in 1976, and I had the 8-track with all my friends and I want to see them in 77 and by then everything is falling into place and the harmonies were fantastic and it just sounded so good, one of several things that I really like about your actions is you keep it fun but you really do get technical, at least somewhat into it. And I really love that. It just puts a huge smile on my face.
    And not only Fran the bass player but I would also say Sidb Hashian the drummer was a decent singer as well, and he sang on a lot of stuff and he was a really good drummer. Check out Foreplay / Long Time for an example of that inthe first part, but the whole thing was a huge hit and was on the radio all the time.
    This first album of theirs is largely regarded as one of the greatest debut albums in rock music history, so part of me wishes you would start at the first song which was this one, and work your way through every song on the album, and there aren't many, and every one of them is incredible in its own way. That's why it's considered to be one of those great debut albums, and I have seen several reactors do that and just totally fall in love with them during the course of working their way through that album.
    But if not, for another example of him going high on the same album, and really all these songs on the album are bangers each in their own way, check out Rock and Roll Band, Smokin', and Something About You. Definitely do the studio cuts if you can; this is such a famous album. Here is Something About You:
