I'll put an end to the one year streak now by saying . For the last year I've been listening every night for the past year to uploaded live concerts of the original BOSTON lineup and yes, I was around in 1976 and in 1977 catching Foreigner, Toto and Player come out and also breaking big. I couldn't understand why there's no live C.Ds or Blue ray, DVD on the band live but I figured it out. Tom Scholz will only talk about himself and since he would be on camera , he wouldn't need a mirror. Brad Delp/Sib Hashian (RIP)
I totally agree with you... there's not a day that's gone by that Brad hasn't crossed my mind in some way. In my heart, he'll forever be missed. He touched soooo many souls, including mine. He was what you call...A Once in a Lifetime Person... Truly Phenomenal♥️
When you look at lead singers of the era I really don’t believe there was anyone from the rock genre that could hold a candle to Brad as far as vocal talent goes.
The reason I stopped reading and respecting Rolling Stone magazine... One of many reasons...are their ridiculous top 100 lists. When they did top 100 singers of all time Brad Delp wasn't even on there. Any musician or singer who actually listens to his range and tone will tell you Brad Delp had one of the three best voices in rock and roll ever. Period.
Yup. And, to continue with the critic's darlings b.s. reviews by the magazine...I'm sorry but Vampire Weekend...if you even know who they are.....in fact...SUCK..and don't deserve four stars just because they went to an Ivy League school...oh...and Kings of Leon suck as well....: )
Rolling Stones list of whatever sucks, on the 100 greatest guitarists of all time van Halen was at forty something, but Kurt Cobain was on the top twenty, Zack Wilder wasn't even there
+J0ZZE123 exactly!!! that's what I'm talking about... I remember that list...Van Halen was way low unbelievably... and then Jack fucking White was like number 21!!!
+Andy Gilbert You are correct; I looked for Brad on that list and didn't see him. I thought they were crazy. Brad had a beautiful, crystal clear voice. I will always love hearing it.
I met Brad Many years ago in Chicago at a restaurant. After i introduced myself (I'm nobody) he asked me to sit with him. For 20 minutes we talked music. Im a musician and he's my vocal hero so I was over the moon talking to him. Such a nice guy. A tragic ending for sure.
Nice to hear that coming from someone else. My uncle was very close with him and went on tour with him with RTZ. He has told me all my life how kind hearted and sweet Brad Delp was and that he was the nicest guys he'd ever met. Sounds like my uncle wasn't lying 😋
@@andrewmccarty I told him how much I loved rtz. I saw them in Grand Rapids Michigan. It was cold and from what I remember snowing (maybe) we were in a glass enclosed entry. They wouldn’t let us in yet and Brad and Barry came out and thanked us for waiting for a bit. Imagine that! I knew then he was a good guy. And btw, kudos to Barry, had the tone, the leads exact for the Boston tunes they did.
@@1267cando Wow what an incredible memory...He will truly be missed. And tahnks for acknowledging Barry, its a little sad how Scholz gets all the credit when Barry was such an integral part of the sound that is Boston. He's a genius in his own right.
@@davidstewart4310 no, I just wanted to talk to him for as long as he felt comfortable. I didn’t know then (after I gave props to Barry and the band RTZ) that Barry was his brother in law. Good thing I said positive things about Barry.
He sure was, I always gravitate towards Boston, feel good and heartfelt music, ♥ so sad Brad's no longer with us but in our hearts, beautiful talented singer 💯💗
he was damn good, no body is pissing in his chili over that,but there is a small number that already holds first to fifth place,they are LOU GRAMM,STEVE PERRY,STEVE WALSH,MARK FARNER,PAUL RODGERS,AND DELP,THERE ARE OTHERS,they are from across the water,and damn talented,i don't know why he took his life,someone knows,its a damn loss,esp when they are a genius talent like MR DELP
Boston was an absolute power house, and the true meaning of Rock and Roll. This world didn't deserve Brad. I wish we could go back to the day Brad decided to take his own life and show him that he IS truly loved.
I remember playing a Boston record in my room and my Mom came in and told me to turn it up so she could hear it in the kitchen. She asked me who it was and I told her. She said it sounded pretty. I was so shocked, because she was always yelling at me to turn my music down. Good memories. The 70's - 80's was a great time to be alive.
I was in my room listening to Black Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and my mom came in to ask me about the same thing and I was shocked she let me have them in the house because of their name and reputation. She was a spiritual person she had a broad range of musical likes. I feel sorry for the people who will never see Boston or hear Brads amazing voice. I believe that the entire band was pushed too hard for too long by Tom Shultz to the point of abuse. He obviously couldn't take anymore that is a tragedy for everyone.
Tom wrote the songs.--and did an amazing job...but that voice ->Brad's VOICE is what makes those songs truly great. Sends shivers down my spine listening to him sing. RIP Brad. You are missed!
This was THE band when I was in high school. T shirts, belt buckles, and concerts; I miss high school and I still listen and love Boston. RIP Brad, we love you bro.🙏🏻✌️
I've been watching "First Reaction" videos from a number of people (mainly musicians and professional singers) who were experiencing Boston and Brad Delp for the first time. Invariably, when they heard him shift from one octave to the next in "More Than A Feeling", their eyes widened and their jaws dropped. Many hands moved to cover many open mouths in shock and amazement. The look on Elizabeth Zharoff's ("The Charismatic Voice" - a professional opera singer) face was one of disbelief and pure joy. It nearly brought her to tears. I'm 55 years old and I have been listening to Boston my entire life. It never, *EVER* gets old.
as opposed to David who can't? You're hard of hearing my friend. Dave did some of the finest vocals performances in rock. Not to mention his signature voice that can pull off Luis Armstrong type of singing. No need to piss on others in order to elevate Brad, he would not do that himself, why would you?
Brad Delp is a true rock and roll icon. His vocals are unmatched to this day. I have to listen to at least one Boston track everyday. Then 2 and 3 and so on….can’t pick a favorite. I heard Boston for the first time at a skate park in Florence SC in the mid 70s, been listening since. What a band, what a front man! Truly missed!
His high notes were supernatural, almost haunting. I noticed that a lot of us remember the very first time we heard More Than a Feeling. I was on a bus coming home from school and it came over our bus driver's radio. A classmate across the aisle from me leaned back against a half-open bus window, closed his eyes while his hair blew around, losing himself "in a song" with Brad's operatic voice. A 45 year-old memory sticks with me like yesterday.
I remember listening to the first Boston album...years and years ago...his voice can stir such feeling .....it did then and still does ..I'm 67...Brad Delp your voice is missed...
Everybody went apeshit over scholzs rockman and him taking credit for all the guitars when Barry Goodyear left their sound lacked that harmonic muscle. All I cared about was one of if not the greatest voice ever.
What an awesome and genuine dude. Something to aspire to as a singer and musician. Boston is one of the best rock bands on Earth, it's a shame they don't have a bigger following
Maybe they did not have certain types pushing them if you know what I mean? If you are a certain religious type, you will get lots of support. Example Tim Buckley VS Bob Dylan. Both were great but Tim had an incredible vocal range & a poet but was not assisted. He released so many albums. Dylan did get that financial & other support. Was it timing? Who knows. Who you know, can really help. Sometimes it might be who you associate with religious or otherwise. But in the case of Brad why not him he had a fantastic natural voice!
Being involved in music all of my life, and now 65 years old, Boston and Brad Delp changed the face of Rock and Roll in 1976. I recall my friend in HS asking if I had listed to Boston yet or heard them on the radio when I was a Junior in High School. I had not heard of them yet, and as soon as I did, made sure I purchased the album and sang to and memorized every song on the album. TO THIS DAY, I know all the words, have played these songs hundreds of times through out the years, and still get off on the unique sound that Tom and Brad created within the band. Later, as an adult, and learning how the band split up and what happened to Delp truly saddened me. We however have been left a digital memory of Delp and Boston, with the genius of Scholz production and writing skills for generations to come.
Brad Delp: amazing voice, incredible musician and beautiful human being. God bless you brother. We love you and miss your spirit. May you rest in peace.
So sad what the illness of depression can do to you , .... one of the all time greats of music. Humble, giving to all the local musicians here in NH. Everyone loved him!
My final year living in Philly. Summertime, the unique sound of Boston, beautiful harmonies headed up by Mr. Delp. Still enjoy it at least a couple of times a week.
He was one of the underrated great voices of rock and roll. His epic, soaring melodies over Tom's driving rhythm and searing leads instantly carry me away. Boston is a band that should truly be looked back upon as one of the greatest rock bands ever.
Unbelievable that they were turned down by all the record companies. You just had to hear that album once to know it would be a smash hit. And Brad Delp’s singing was unparalleled. One of the greatest rock singers of all time.
Not really when you consider psychopaths run the record industry and they are entirely incapable of feeling attachment to other humans or animals. Let me repeat that...INCAPABLE of feeling any attachment to other living things. (which is why they don't get the song at all)
Brad Delp is without a doubt, in the top 5 greatest singers in rock history. The only 3 I can think of that were in his league was Freddy Mercury, Steve Perry and Geoff Tate. Brad was in a total class by himself because of his tone....and range. What a loss
The list of great singers in my humble opinion should include Burton Cummings of the Guess Who. Lead singer of a Canadian Band famous for such tunes as "American Woman", "These Eyes"....I do not make this claim alone as many of Burton's musical peers share the same view.
One of the best male vocalist in Rock. Delp vocal range was unbelievably amazing. RIP Brad! He's doing heavenly vocals now with the rest of the great musicians that left us too early.
Brad Delp. One of the most gifted vocalists ever to walk Planet Earth. His vocals with Boston are TIMELESS. I never tire of hearing Boston’s songs and Brad’s voice has as much to do with it as Tom’s masterful guitar compositions and playing.
I'm not just saying this b/c of how much I love their music, but I really liked Brad Delp as a guy. Yes, his vocals were heavenly, soaring through the stratosphere, but I'm talking about the kind of person he was: humble, thoughtful, genuine-seeming, a touch melancholy. Still very saddened when I think of his earthly end.
Testosterone can be a dangerous drug too, mixed with coke and ...Just a guess. Everytime I listen to his vocals I get crazy thinking about how he surely could have found another way out of the mess he made for himself but, as a rockstar, highly visible,I guess there was nothing he could do but become a Monk whatever and through what he loved to do in the dumpster. The anguish, guilt and embarrassment he must have felt, wishing that he could have taken it all back, done it differently, wow. I know, theres the other side of the story '"What if she were your sister ?" and all but still .... damn it. RIP Brad
I went to see a friend in Boston around 74' or 75', and he took me to a school gym with his brothers to see a band play, it was Boston playing these same songs.
Interviewer: How long will Boson keep playing? Brad Delp: as long as people wanna keep listening to us Me 2020: Boston blares through my speakers on repeat like a newly dropped album!! 🔊 🔊
My wife and I use to follow Beatlejuice around,(we're huge Beatles fans) and were fortunate enough to have many conversations with Brad. We were struck by how humble and sweet this amazing talent was. We miss him so much. God Bless Brad may you R.I.P.
Brad Delp placed hidden cameras in his fiancee's sister's bedroom. He may have come across as humble and sweet to you, but he was a creepy perv and coward who chose to kill himself via carbon monoxide poisoning AFTER he was caught. Sometimes people are wolves in sheep's clothing.
@@mikehunt4303 How funny that you think I owe you some kind of proof. Grow up and do your own search for the information. I don't have any vested interest in whether or not you believe facts, just because they happen to be unknown to you.
@@le_th_ Yep, no one is perfect. He wasn't a well person towards the end. I wish he would have sought help rather than take his own life, but I know a lot of people I could wish that about.
One of the most incredible singers and one of the best voices in rock history - today still unbelievable what Brad Delp has achieved and delivered, especially on the first Boston album - also one of the best albums in rock history.
It’s so weird. You are the exact same age as me. I was blown away by how awesome and different they were. Still lobe them today! First heard in ‘76 because my older brother got there record through Columbia House. Lol.
Definitely NOT a stand-up guy by any means...not even close. Dude was caught videoing his fiancee's sister's bedroom covertly. She caught him and gave him a short time to come clean with her sister. Instead, he went out and bought 2 bbq grills and killed himself by carbon monoxide poisoning. Now, maybe he is just the kind of guy you'd just love to hang around with because you do that stuff, as well. However, if you have a fairly well-calibrated moral compass, you can see he was a disturbed and creepy perv.
le th he had a lot of mental issues with depression and anxiety/stage fright and he told the doctor he didn’t want to go on the tour with Boston. He was probably on or off meds so I don’t think that he killed himself for that one incident with that fiancées sister.
@@fireice2999 You can certainly believe that if it makes you feel better. However, it won't change the letters he wrote to his fiancee and to others saying otherwise. Some people need to make excuses even when they are presented with a factual story.
le th you missed my point. I said that it was one of the things that led to his suicide but not all of it. I’m not making up excuses, I’m not even his fan. It’s not normal for a person to take his life over an incident like that. A lot of other celebrities have done way worse. He said in his letter to someone that he always suffered from depression. I am presenting facts. He was being treated for depression/ anxiety and stage fright. Chris Cornell/Kurt Cobain both suffered from long-term depression and committed suicide.
@@fireice2999 I'm not taking issue with his depression, or his anxiety, or his stage fright...all those things can be expected in someone who is a covert narcissist (they fear the spotlight unlike exhibitionist narcissists like Trump, Kanye, Russel Brand, Dr. Phil and others like them). I'm talking about the fact that he was given a deadline by the woman who caught him filming her. She found the recording devices, the videos, and told him he had something like 3 days to tell her sister (and his fiance) about what he had done before she was going to tell her. Hours before that deadline he tried to kill himself by attaching a hose to his exhaust pipe with his car running. When that didn't work, he then went out and purchased 2 bbq grills and taped around the bathroom door to make CERTAIN he would have a tight seal, and he had written out confession letters to those closest to him as to what he had done. Then, in typical covert narcissist fashion, he pinned a note to his clothing...written in French...saying he was a lonely soul. He was portraying himself as a victim, even though he was the perpetrator...the very clear and obvious perpetrator with dozens of videos to PROVE that point. He was feeling sorry for himself, and just like any narcissist, he didn't want to "lose face" publicly and lose his status as a rockstar to become publicly known as an untrustworthy pervert. You are lumping people who have committed suicide together because they have the same profession, and not looking at each person individually. Kurt Cobain likely suffered from Borderline Personality Disorder because he had suicidal ideation, and was constantly talking about death, dying, and wanting to die. He also had health problems since childhood that were akin to irritable bowel syndrome, and it made his childhood and adulthood miserable. I do not know the specifics around Cornell's death, yet I heard he was diagnosed (incorrectly) with bipolar disorder when what he really had was Borderline Personality Disorder. Now, is it possible that Brad Delp also suffered from BPD? Perhaps...however, it sure sounds like he was worried about being held accountable...by authorities and his fiancee...for the crimes (plural) he committed, and that smacks of narcissistic personality disorder, especially when you combine it with his stage fright (which is a tell-tale sign of covert narcissism). Narcissists lack empathy for others and they believe the rules and laws of society apply to everyone else BUT them, and they portray themselves as the victim when they are truly the perpetrator. Judges hear this shit in court ALL THE TIME from narcissistic criminals who do what is called "blame-shifting"...blaming their victim or others for the crimes they've committed and/or outright denying they did anything wrong and not wanting to be held accountable for breaking the law and/or violating the rights of others. If that was your daughter who had been filmed...repeatedly...or you...you might be a little more sympathetic to the person who was victimized, and not so much toward the perpetrator.
he was a beautiful man with a beautiful voice. So sad, tragic that he was a lonely soul. It is so sad that some awesomely talented people who are truly loved never feel it.
After walking home from school everyday singing this song, my little brother and I were 9 & 10 when we finally walked down to the record store one sunny Southern California Saturday morning in '76 (after finishing our cereal and Schoolhouse Rock of course), $5 in hand, and bought this new album. Played it to absolute death (usually as soon as I got home from school.. this and Frampton). Dad would sometimes bust into my room and yell, 'TURN DOWN THAT NOISE!!').. lol. Have had this record and other records of that time all these years... plus those of my folks. Saw them at Irvine Meadows years later for Third Stage. Love 'em always..
I am simultaneously amazed, yet devastated by this interview. Amazed by his candor & humility, but devastated by the loss of life that happened thereafter. This will never make sense to me, but I am happy for the years Brad gave us to enjoy his inimitable voice and musical vision.
Here, I will help it make sense for you. Delp killed himself by going out and purchasing 2 bbq grills AFTER his fiancee's sister caught him secretly videotaping her in her bedroom. The guy was a disturbed pervert and coward. THAT is why he killed himself; he didn't want to face the consequences of what he'd done.
@@le_th_ I remember his death and hearing about that. That's an old African method of suicide. Yea it was disturbing what he did but he also suffered from depression. Still had the best voice ever along with Freddie.
@@cho6140 Yes, he had MUCH more serious problems than depression. Depression was the least of his issues. He very likely had an underlying personality disorder which is often what drives people to seek the limelight in the first place (not unlike Freddie Mercury and many, many others who crave that kind of attention). He was indeed a very warped individual and we know that by his behavior and actions. I don't think that anyone would argue against his vocal talent. It's very apparent. Thank you for your comment.
@surfitlive LOL Do you know how to do a basic Google search? I'm guessing that's a "no"? He was NOT married to his fiancee; that is why they use the term fiancee, because the marriage has not taken place. He was a sexual deviant who FILMED his fiancee's sister....WITHOUT HER KNOWLEDGE OR PERMISSION...and his did this for 2 years...IN HER OWN HOME, and she found the hundreds of video tapes of proof that he had been doing it all along. THAT is why he killed himself. Well, that and because he was too cowardly to face the consequences of what he had done knowing full well it would destroy him personally AND publicly. ....and it DID destroy his reputation, even though he killed himself, but he didn't have to live with the consequences of his actions.
I was 13 in 1976 and when I heard "More Than A Feeling" on my little AM radio, I didn't know what the song was really about but I knew instantly that it was going to be on my mind forever. I come from a musical family and this was the first "Rock" band album I was allowed to buy. BOSTON: Brad, Barry, Fran, Sib, and Tom are the only people I recognize as BOSTON. I can't stand the rodeo round-up that Tom has been doing since Brad's death, and even before that with "letting Barry and Fran go" whatever that means. He had perfection and now he just has, what I call, a "cover band" who play BOSTON songs. "More Than A Feeling" is a song for everyone; we all have that certain song that hits home and gives us a feeling like no other. The funny thing is, "More Than A Feeling" is that song for me. Brad, you can sing to me in my dreams forever.
Absolutely wonderful story - thanks for leaving it here! I was about the same age when it hit - I remember my friends brother and 3 other guys standing around a truck as they were debating going to their show for this album - Veterans memorial coliseum in Phx - I wished I could have went - Have you heard the clips on Tom's FB site from their new album "Life, Love & Hope"? OMG I hate to say it - but it is terrible - sounds like Tom made this album for a crappy High School movie that will never get released - there is no soul at all not a drop in their new album - sad....really sad!
I just can't grasp the Boston sound. I know a little about music, I understand the talent that's there. But I can't dig the Boston sound. Now, when Brad was covering the Beatles, wow, greatness to my ears!
+LISA WARNER I was 15 and into John Denver and Neil Diamond. I was at the record store and bought Boston because of the cool cover (I bought Buckingham/Nicks on that same trip, also because of the cover ;)). As soon as i put that record on the living room console stereo turntable I knew I'd never be the same again. I was a rocker after the first listening and took up guitar because of them. It's now 40 years later and i still play their songs for practice. Brad had a once in a lifetime voice that i still haven't heard bettered. Kinda like Bon Scott in that way. We'll miss ya, bro
+LISA WARNER I was 12. I remember for Christmas I got a Boston belt buckle and my brother got a KISS belt buckle. I felt sorry for my brother because mine was so awesome! My first album was Linda Ronstadt, my second was Boston. My third was Black Sabbath We Sold Our Soul. I progressed quickly.
I remember listening to More Than a Feeling when I was a kid. I really loved it especially the intro and Brad Delps vocals. I would say it holds its own even now.
In 1998 he recognized no age gap with his music. Well guess what, its 2015 and everyone from my mother to ALL of my children would LOVE to see a live concert. You are greatly missed Brad!
The 70's was a great time to be alive and coming of age! A magical time when there was so much great music back when the lyrics were as important as the music and before videos ruined everything with emphasis on image over lyrics and the music.
The only influence of video over lyrics and music is if the viewer/listener takes it that way. Me? I watched videos in the 80's and 90's, enjoyed some of them, laughed at the silliness of others, went out and bought the album if the music was good.
the video that really shocked me when I was young and used to watch MTV (80's) was one video that started out of nowhere with a guitar and then the full band... then they started to sing "they say you wanna revolutiooon well you know..." The Beatles!!! one camera filming them just performing the song.. period. but snobby ppl, used to like big productions videos and starting to call 'art' to albums covers. "who made the art? blah blah..." the art is the sound of those records (if it's the case) art is Music!! Music is Art. the desing of some album cover is just craft... Music is #1
Love you Brad. I hope all of the love and good vibes are reaching you. You were the soundtrack to my Wonder Years. Boston was always playing walking the beach strand in SC in the 70's. So glad I saw you on the Third Stage tour at the Dean Dome, 1987!! You blessed us all and I think of you so very often and I smile.
One of the best bands ever such a shame we lost Brad Delp far too early.... his voice and Tom's drive such a great combination they all were a perfect formula for success
That thought did come across my mind. Ty for not making me the only one noticing it. Brad is my favorite Rock singer. Long live his trademark song, "More Than A Feeling".
RIP Brad Delp. Thank you for sharing your gift with the world! And thank you Tommy DeCarlo for filling his shoes as well as you do! These songs are part of rock & rolls DNA, and millions of Boston fans like me!
I recently got to see & hear Tommy DeCarlo performing our favorite Boston classics. I think he has a great voice. I got to see Boston at Alpine Valley in Wisconsin on their Third Stage your.❤️
His voice has brought me so much joy through out my life. I am 46 and I discovered Boston long after their hey day in 1985. I was 12 years old then, a young girl listening to Boston in the morning, getting ready for school. It always makes my morning drive to work, even now to hear More Than A Feeling. I love you always Brad. May you rest in peace. Thank you so much.
Probably the most underrated singer in Rock history. An absolutely incredible voice, one of the best ever. How Boston is not in the Rock-n-Roll HOF is ridiculous. On the merits of the 1st album alone they should be in.
People talk about Steve Perry being "the voice", and rightfully so. But I don't think any rock-and-roll band can claim a better front vocal man than Boston's Brad Delp. Sure, they are different musical styles, but Delp made Longtime into an anthem. It wasn't even a 45 release because it was too long. Yet, everyone with an eardrum has heard that song, and - unless you have some kind of abject foolishness - loves it. NO cover band can do that song justice, no way! That was complete, authentic brilliance!
Boston's founder, Tom Scholtz, claims to have always been a one-man band in an interview I just watched here on RU-vid. He was taking credit for everything. For me, Boston can never be Boston without Brad Delp. No one sings along with Tom's guitar (although he is a great player). They sing along with Brad. Or try to, anyway. His range, tone, and vibrato were unbelievable. And he was awesome on guitar and keyboards, too.
Gotta kinda agree with you Jan. Didn't see the video you stated but in interviews I did see of Tom about the band, he always seemed to have that "If it wasn't for me" attitude. Hence, after the 2nd album the band slowly started to fall apart and the current "Boston" comes NO WHERE NEAR the original. Heck, Tom is the only one left in the current band and he looks like he's ready for a wheelchair!
If I had to pick a single band that most evokes my childhood and adolescence in the 70s, it's Boston. That music was literally *always* playing somewhere in the second half of that decade. Love or hate the songwriting, that sound was thrilling and groundbreaking for its day. And Scholz is an egomaniac if he wants to deny how important Brad's voice was. Look up the song "Dreams" by Brad Delp and Boston's other guitarist, Barry Goudreau -- it sounds more like classic Boston than anything Scholz has ever released with other singers.
Sadly, Boston was a band that created music we may never hear again with vocals like Brad, but as fans we sure deserve to, Like so many of us out there I have beautiful memories tied to their music each and every one of them all good! RIP Brad...
Good god, no he was not a beautiful spirit. Delp killed himself AFTER he was caught covertly videotaping his fiancee's sister in her bedroom. He went out and bought 2 bbq grills and killed himself via carbon monoxide poisoning rather than face the consequences of what he'd done (so not only was he a disturbed pervert, but also a coward).
It's quite rare that a band has two astonishingly talented musicians. Both Brad and Tom are my musical heroes in their respective roles. And Brad was such a nice guy, very humble. He will never be forgotten. Love this interview.
It's an awesome "more than a feeling" to take this never giving up no matter who finally signs you interview "home tonight". Especially with our cool and emotional lead singer/rock legend🎯🎵🎶🎸🌕🌄 Stay safe everyone!
This guy had one of the greatest voices of all time and during this interview, he seems so INCREDIBLY humble and just basically a nice guy. WOW! The world really lost a gem.
There can be a HUGE difference between "nice" and "good". Delp killed himself AFTER he was caught placing hidden cameras in his fiancee's sister's bedroom. Rather than face the consequences, he purchased 2 bbq grills and killed himself via carbon monoxide poisoning. He was a disturbed pervert and coward, which may be "nice" to you but most of society would frown on being secretly videotaped in their bedroom by someone they thought they could trust.
@@DavidZ7785 After reading your other comment, you have no idea what a complete RELIEF it is that you believe I have issues. If you saw eye to eye with me, I'd be worried as fuck.
Brad is a true Gentleman! I can remember the first album when I was in high school and being a guitar player I was truly amazed by their tone and My God the vocals!! To this day there is no body like Brad! Every time I listen to Boston it brings me back to some very special times and sad times! Boston and Van Halen changed the way I played guitar! Thank You Brad for all the memories, You are missed!
