This is their debut album and literally every song is a hit. The guy Tom Schultz worked for Polaroid camera company and built the studio in his basement and played most of the instruments along with Brad Delph who was the vocalist. No one had ever heard anything like it before back in those days so get ready to jump down the rabbit hole of this record. You will be blown away just like we were.

Always amazes me that Tom Scholz sent a Brad and a band to California to record at the record label's studio, then secretly submitted the recordings he produced, himself, in his own basement for the LP. I really feel that was neccessary, though, as record labels back then were so bent on producing music they knew would sell and not try anything different. Yeah, some of the songs on their 1976 debut album just can't be done live, but who cares, we listen to most of our music at home, or in the car, etc. First time listening to the LP my sister bought in 1976 when I was only nine, I knew then, a new era in music started. Not even knowing then, that Scholz tricked the record label to get this album out.

They had a lot of great songs such as "Foreplay/Long Time", "Peace Of Mind", "Rock & Roll Band", "Don't Look Back", "A Man I'll Never Be", "Feelin' Satisfied", Smokin'", "We're Ready", "Amanda", "Hitch A Ride", "Hollyann", "Cool The Engines" etc.

If you want to hear some great 70s music with 3 band members harmonizing oh so well check out the 1975 live version of 'Eli's Coming' by the band Three Dog Night. They were a super popular band back in the day with a lot of hits. I am 61 and grew up with this band as well as the greats you've reacted to like Boston and Chicago and Kansas. I do get so nostalgic because these bands and songs were such a huge part of my life as I entered my teen years and beyond. But check out Three Dog Night, they are late 60s and on through early to mid 70s, their sound takes me back in my mind and spirit to that time!

100% I feel nostalgia watching you hear music from days past. I absolutely remember the first time I heard many of the songs you react to. Seeing you enjoy and/or appreciate the same songs that make me feel good absolutely is enjoyable. To be honest, it also helps me re-connect with a lot of the tracks and appreciate them even more. Peace and much love man! (QUICK EDIT) - A song I think you might enjoy reacting to is "Come Sail Away" by the group Styx. For me, it hits the same feelings of "I remember where I was when I heard this" as well as having lyrics that suck you in and then send you into your own memories.

Yeah, a lot of us are much older and the music brings up memories for us, but we can have those memories anytime when we hear the music in our daily lives. What most of us are hear for is to help educate and guide channels like yours. You're opening yourself up to a whole new world, and we'd be completely negligent if we didn't take our duties as teachers to the new generations seriously. And it's an amazing feeling to watch a person grow musically, and consequently emotionally, with our guidance. And honestly for me, having listened to this all my life, I've learned to hear the music in a new way myself. We're helping each other. On to "Foreplay/Long Time"!

Shon, you are absolutely right. I will be 50 this year. Thanks to my Aunt Sue, I grew up on music. Everything from the fifties up. Aunt Sue had a deal with the local juke box guy. They just threw out the 45's when they changed them out, as they were considered overplayed. So she talked to him, and he told her she could have them, as long as she took them all, therefore saving him a trip to the dump at the end of his day. So she had hundreds of 45's. We would hang out in her room, stack them up randomly, and just listen and sing along all day. (I was a young kid then, by the way, my elementary school yrs) I really enjoy watching younger people such as yourself hear all this great music for the first time. It makes me very happy that you are open to hearing it, and that these great songs will go on for yet another generation.

Boston burst onto the pop music scene in 1976 with their very first album called "Boston" and not only did it become their biggest selling album, but the album became the biggest selling album in rock history 👀 This single "More Than a Feeling" peaked at number 4 on US Billboard Top 100 chart. This is considered to be under the genre of "Progressive Rock" this band infused elements of prog. rock with the 1960's pop music sound. The band is from Massachusetts and was founded by Tom Scholz. All together the band has released six studio albums in a career spanning out across 48 years. Here's another suggestion in case you're interested *"Boston - Let Me Take You Home Tonight (Official Audio)"* Thanx 4 sharing, Shon really enjoyed this one

This was the lead song on their debut album...the soundtrack of which was recorded in Tom Scholz' (the songwriter's) basement. Tom was a very talented sound engineer, in addition to being a very talented songwriter. He talked his friend Brad Delp into recording the vocals on the demo tape that was sent to the recording studio...who decided to just release the demo tape recording as the official album! The song, and the entire album, became monster hits in 1976. Considered by many to be the best debut album ever released. React to every song on that album. You'll be glad you did.

I had no idea you hadn't heard any Boston yet. The self-titled debut album that the song is from is, along with albums like the first Van Halen album, considered to be one of the greatest debut albums in rock history. A lot of reactors have done this, but literally every song on this album. Radio play and they are each fire in their own way, it's such a solid album that you could work your way through every song on the album in sequence, one reaction at a time. I've seen people do this and it always goes over really well and they come away loving the band so much. And it could work because this is literally the first song on the album. You heard the first song on their first album. I saw them in 1977 for $7.50 or maybe it was $9.50 including all the extra fees and tax and everything. What an incredible show.
