Now you’re hearing REAL music played by real, talented guys, young man! Zeppelin at the top, Boston, the Animals, Hendrix, the Eagles… we had it all and now you can enjoy it all. I love watching you. This song in my humble opinion, represented our generation. The culmination of all our music.

(Dude-Ness). Your reaction is the exact same reaction us old farts had the first time hearing it. Boston’s first few albums were done with zero computer. All analog tape. All the cuts and pasting was done with a razor blade on 4” tape reels. “More than a feeling”, as others have suggested is definitely the best second song. Delps vocals are especially epic on that. The first two albums every song is good. No filler or fluff. Historic albums. I’m glad it hit you like it hits us. 👍🏻

I'm surprised that there aren't more requests here for "More Than a Feeling.," probably their most popular song of all. Probably a lot of aficionados of Boston who appreciate some of the less well-known songs--even if quite well-known and appreciated by most anybody. If you're looking now at 60s and 70s rock, one of the absolute essentials are the Rolling Stones. With a big recommendation for "Sympathy for the Devil" and "Gimme Shelter."

Young reactors always thank us for choosing songs that you guys then end up really liking, sometimes implying that we're carefully picking songs tailored just for you guys, but we don't really have to do much choosing because these songs were really, really popular and all over the radio back in the sixties, seventies, and eighties (this one's from 1976). They're in our heads already. We don't have to do no research to find them or nothing.

Boston was the first band I ever saw in concert back in the fall of 1978 with a few college buddies. Sammy Hagar (whom I didn't know at the time) warmed up for them and put on a good show. Then the stage was dark for about 15 minutes while roadies changed out the equipment. Then Boston opened up with "Rock And Roll Band" which is kind of the story about the band's rise to fame. The place went crazy. In addition to that one, I also recommend "Smokin'". Both rockin' tunes.

Most of us who were teenagers or young adults when this album was released were absolutely blown away by many of the songs on this debut album, and by the album as a whole. Also, the first song we heard from the album was not this one, but rather "More Than A Feeling"--which the general audience strongly considers the best song on the album, and arguably Boston's best song. I generally agree with the comments others have made here. For example, it is one of the best debut albums ever, and one of the best albums released in the 1970s, and even one of the best rock albums of all time.

Ok, man. Just looked through your catalog. You've got a great start! But oh BOY do you have a glaring omission! The Temple of Rock has three load-bearing pillars. You got the first two: Led Zepplin and Pink Floyd. Now, it's time for the Trifecta. Son, let me introduce you to a little band called "Rush". A Canadian power trio, they are each acknowledged as being some of the finest masters of their instruments ever born. With the smartest lyrics, compellingly unique vocals, and exquisite muscicianship, they are the finest there is. I would start with " Tom Sawyer" or "The Spirit of Radio". I could list a dozen other tracks. I'll just mention two: " YYZ" live in Rio. It's an instrumental that is so good, 40,000 people _sang_ along with it (pronounced "why-why-zed" because they're Canadian and folks will poke fun if you say "Zee"). The other is Neal Peart live in Frankfurt. He's the drummer, this is unequivocally the best drum solo ever recorded, and he's tied with Zepplin's Bonham for Best Drummer Ever (name is pronounced "Peer"). Have fun!
