Boston will include the vocals of former singer Brad Delp on their new album ‘Life, Love & Hope’, their first in 11 years.
Delp committed suicide in 2007. Delp’s vocals will be complimented by Tommy DeCarlo, Kimberley Dahme, David Victor, and guitarist and founding member Tom Scholz who has kept the sound of Boston intact. “I intentionally stayed close to the early BOSTON style on some of the songs, even using the same amps and instruments; on others I let my imagination run wild,” says Scholz.
Scholz added, “These are songs from the heart, each of them taking many months of effort to write, arrange, perform and record, always up to the demands of Boston’s harshest critic. Me. The songs have been meticulously recorded to analogue tape on the same machines and equipment used for Boston’s hits for the past 35 years.”
Boston formed in Boston in 1976 and released their self-titled debut later that year. The ‘Boston’ album became the biggest selling debut album of all-time in the USA, going to sell over 17 million albums. It featured the classic ‘More Than A Feeling’.
Boston’s second album ‘Don’t Look Back’ sold 7 million in the USA.
The last Boston album was ‘Corporate America’ in 2002.
Boston’s ‘Life, Love & Hope’ will be released in December.
