OT: Touching tribute to Brad Delp

by AR » Mon May 28, 2007 7:49 am

You all can yell at me all you want - but I am a fan of Boston. Not someone just making a callous remark.

8 years old and I was singing along with Brad Delp.

That's not the point...But don't worry about. It's over. Let's just talk talk about Boston. Arguing sucks.

I actually found a bunch of new Boston vids over at Youtube yesterday that weren't there before all this crap.

I am a fan of his work and in retrospect am now more angry than sad.

AR sometimes you blow me away with your impact fella.

If that's how you want to post on it, I'm cool with it.
I'm here to read not judge.

Let me know when your ready to hear some of them fine tunes again, I'll
be one of the first listening along with ya.

Makes me sad, but a nice shot.

My favorite Boston tune and one of my faves of all time by anyone..."Hitch a Ride" from '88. Scholz just smokes on the organ AND guitar on this tune.

On the more recent tours, Brad would defer to Fran to some high notes. Team players. Brad could sing them, but Fran made those double tracked vocals work live!

Kind of feel that way with Castronovo and Jeff (or even Augeri before the bullshit) - Just be a band and make it good!

Yeah, I prefer Delp's voice but Cosmo can still hit some ungodly high notes. Delp wasn't afraid to admit that he couldn't do that anymore, either. In fact, at the Indianapolis show in '04, he introduced Cosmo as the guy who hits all the high notes now because he couldn't do it.

This is all I want from Journey.
Thanks for wording it well Ed.

Good tune. I also like the short acoustic number on Goudreau's solo album, "Sailin' Away".

Boy, listening to that earlier clip of "Amanda" really takes me back to that Indy show in '04. Probably the best sound of any concert I've ever been to. They recreated that huge Boston sound to a "T". Of course, it took five guitarists onstage to do it, but they did it wonderfully.

My brother just downloaded the West Palm Beach show. I will have it tomorrow.

I was at that West Palm show, 4th row, right side of the stage....friggin awesome show! They did I think, about 6 songs from Corporate America if I remember correctly...opened up with I Had a Good Time. No opening act of course...they played about 2:30. I would love a DVD of that concert...it rocked! But I'll settle for an audio CD... :wink:

Can you help me out ED?
