Back when music was "Crafted" by master craftsmen.
I like how you both don't interrupt the song and let it play all the way out.
After hearing this hundreds of times, sometimes I forget just how perfect this song is.
Masterpiece
Love the way Bostons music resonates across different cultures, and the reactions are always positive. Now that you've found them enjoy them for years to come. This music it truly timeless.
Foreplay/Long Time is one of those songs that when it starts playing on the stereo in your car, it makes responsible drivers that normally drive 65mph look at their speedometers and realize the awesomeness of this song caused them to be cruising down the highway at 96mph. Every song on Boston's debut album still gets played on classic rock radio stations in heavy rotation. Each song on the album is just a little bit better than the song that preceded it. The album is a timeless masterpiece!
RIP Brad Delp (the lead singer)
Peace of Mind is my favorite song from Boston. But their entire debut album is phenomenal. If I were you folks, I’d pick a Boston song from their debut album every week to react to till you’ve reacted to them all. You’ll likely be impressed by all of them.
This is such a great jam! It's stood the test of time and still sounds good today! Every song off this album was a hit.
This was Boston! This was the 70's! This was an American delight! One of the best acts in town! I am grateful for growing up when I did although if I had my choice I would have been a teenager in the 70's. The band's back then were incredible! I'm so glad I grew up in a time when all these bands were still known to the youth.
The entire debut Boston album is incredible. Every song is amazing.
One of the greatest debut albums in Rock history.
Aye :nods:. There's a reason why they only really did two albums and everyone still knows who they are :D.
I love it at the 4:15 mark when the transition to acoustic kicks in. Everyone who hears this song for the first time reacts the same way. Totally caught off guard and a huge smile splashes across their face. Never gets old. Such a great song. Very happy you guys got to hear it and we got to watch your reaction. Thanks for sharing.
Cool how they play the riff the last time with an electric guitar to change it up.
I was 12 and in the 7th grade in '76. Imagine how much fun our high school years was due to the barrage of great rock albums and groups! Boston's first album is a masterpiece!
I was also 12...1964 birth year? good times in the 70s GREAT MUSIC!
Ahh sounds of my youth! The 70's were such a great time to be alive. We had the best music. Boston was always playing in my car or at the keg parties we would go to 😃 good times never to be forgotten. Love you guys! 💕✌
My ex wife called a radio station, sang part of stairway to heaven and won tickets to BOSTON... HOWS THAT FOR A MEMORY!!
The entire album is incredible.
Hard to believe the musicality and how this could almost fit into a much later genre of music, and it was released in 1976.
Real Album Rock. Tracks that build and bring you in slowly. A lost genre and style. This was also one of (if not THE) the biggest debut albums ever. It was beyond huge when I was a kid.
MrAitraining
Some how they combined the melodic sense and harmonies of the Beatles with the bombastic dynamism of Zeppelin. Amazing! And it was a huge plus that Tom Schulz found Brad Delp a Singer with an Operatic Vocal Range who could hit high notes like no one else could. It must have been Fate because combined they created something special and original. Sheer Genius! Those first two Boston albums are still classic Hard Rock! Sometimes the Fates are kind!
Good Reactions!
Thank you both. Lovin’ ur song choices. Beautiful couple. 🤘
I really enjoy watching you guys discovering the music from the "olden days" back when I had hair 😁
And Kirti....watching this song your smile was very infectious...especially when the changes happened. It really cheered me up.
Salvio I have to a agree with a couple of other commenters. I believe the song you were remembering is definitely NUTROCKER played by Emerson Lake & Palmer. You mimicked it pretty accurately.
Have fun guys!
I always loved their guitar tones and the production quality of their albums.
Yes they amazing tones and the bass tone too
Great song. Boston's first album is one of the greats.
Amazingly, this album is like 40 years old. Oh my god, I feel old. Great cover.
From Boston's 1976 debut album. Every song was top notch. The entire album was made up of the demo tapes that were recorded in Tom Scholz's basement by Tom Scholz himself. Tom Scholz was an MIT grad and was the lead guitarist....He played all the instruments on the demo tapes. Only Brad Delp added vocals. RIP Brad Delp and Sib Hashian...
Boston was my favorite band back in the day. This came out about 1976. Tom Schultz is the master mind behind the band. He has a masters degree in engineering from MIT and was working for Polaroid at the time. He invented the electronic device called the Rockman that gives the guitars that unique sound. He wrote all the songs on the first album. He then played all the instruments to each part and over dubbed them to make the complete album. Then got a guy to sing the lead. When the record label agreed to sign the contract they wanted to meet the band because the had to perform live shows to promote the record. They couldn’t believe he did the whole thing himself. So he got some recommend guys from Boston to form the band and named it Boston. It still hold the record for most break out albums sold ever at 15 million plus. Tom has replaced all the band threw out the years but stayed actively touring up till last year at 75 years old.
Eds Fiery Furnace "then got 'a guy' to sing the lead".
LOL!!! Got 'The Guy', Brad Delp to sign the lead!
" A Guy". Too funny.
Look at her eyes pop at 6:20 when Barry Goudreau attacks with the solo. Beautiful and natural response. Everything about this song is energy, power, and surprises. Tom Scholz is a pain in the ass perfectionist and genius. The eyes said so.
Tom Scholz recorded this album by himself in his basement... GENIUS!!!!!!
Great choice! I'm a lifelong Boston fan! :)
First-time seeing your channel. Loved the selection. Loved the reaction. I didn't see any air-guitar play, but that should come in time.
I'm most excited for this reaction! That summer at the park this song blared from every Camaro, Chevelle, Nova, Mustang and the occasional Pinto! Good times! Awesome memories!
laura kali Yes!! I don't know how I could have forgotten that one! My dad's hobby was restoring muscle cars and the GTO was his favorite!
Pinto, lol.
You guys really help me rappreciate songs that I stopped listening to. Keep it up you guys are great.
Omg...you went there...this whole album is iconic...this band is in my top 10 bands of all time....God it was so great growing up to these bands with these masterpieces...anthems as i call them...thank you so much for this great reation to this awesome anthem...
Awesome choice 👍👍!! This album STILL goes down in HISTORY as one of the BEST SELLING 1st albums to ever come out by any band!!!
In the 70's when I was a boy my favorite was always 'Take a Ride' Boston.....just a beautiful acoustic opening and then the drums and singing kicks in and its so peaceful and the harmony from Brad takes the song way high....please review when you can....Love you Thanks!
Many of the rock bands in the late 60's to early 70's did rock opera albums...Boston's foreplay shows us a glimpse in the opening stanza of this great and legendary song. Just Awesome! Great reaction as always...
This song was awesome in concert with everyone clapping along. Boston was awesome.
Great to see you guys listening to this for the first time, a song I have been listening to for the past 40 years!
This lady is so representative of all the women of her complexion that I have ever seen....... she is so mild mannered, speaks gently, not overpowering........
She is just plain beautiful; in my book 📚.
Great job.
Peace
My favourite Band of all time!! Partied a lot to this group back in the day! LOVED this group and 99% of their songs!!!
I was 15 when this album came out-it was summer and man was it huge.
Now you are taking me back to my junior high school days!!! Thank you so much!
There we go! Classic song!
I always head-bang to foreplay and then head-bob listening to longtime
Thx, love Boston. “More than a feelin’” is another song I like
Tom Scholz was an MIT graduate who engineered every part of this album INCLUDING THE ORDER OF THE SONGS. As a Boomer who remembered when this was released during his junior year of high school, I gotta recommend listening to the entire album. The "whole" is greater than the sum of its (amazing) parts.
Just watching the excitement and joy on your faces while this played was great!
Tom Scholz, the founding member and multi-instrumentalist played the majority of the first album instruments, is a Electrical/Mechanical Engineering graduate of MIT.
Boston wasn't even formed when Tom Scholz received his record deal.
As a kid I had no idea what foreplay meant, the beginning of the song was simply the space guitars trip to Earth and longtime was them jamming upon arrival. In other words, this song was the musical representation of the album cover, which I'd stare at for hours on end while listening to this album 128 times the 1st week I got it. 30+ years later I still LOVE it.
I remember hearing this album for the first time like you guys, it blew me away. I live 20 miles north of Boston and have seen the band many times times, Brad Delp ( singer ) had one of the best rock voices & a very humble man. Steve Danvers MA
I love Boston, they were perfect with every song they made truly.
Probably the greatest debut album ever.
Great reaction, lady & gent! I'm loving the reaction choices u go with. FYI - in this song, the title of 'Foreplay' is meant as 'Intro'. The whole beginning instrumental part is the intro, or the foreplay. Keep up the good work!
I always interpreted it as being on the road in a band, and having relationships. But you have to move on and chase the dream of being a rock star.
This is a great song from a great album. SO glad you reacted to this classic rock song. You guys do a great job. Keep them coming. (oh yeah, more Warning)
You do know that "Boston" started out as 1 man....that makes this even more amazing!
Excellent musicianship 🎛️ Amazing instrumental intro (Foreplay) and main song (Long Time) 🎶 Great reaction Enoma 🎏
This album is one of the best ever. Not a bad song. The guitar tone is pure perfection. Thanks to Tom Scholz's fabulous invention the "Rocktron". I was 11 years old when this album came out. And back then as today. The guitar sounds are perfection. I'm still amazed that the Rocktron isn't used by more artists. I guess they are afraid to sound like Boston.
I absolutely love you guys. Kirti was so cute....grinning from ear to ear the whole time. This whole album is gold! It came out when I was 11 and blew me away.....until Van Halen showed up a year later. That's a whole other story. Listen to "Hitch A Ride". The guitar work is awesome.
Love your reaction. Made me smile.
Nice song choice. And it is good to see Kirti feeling comfortable in speaking up more. When I first found you it seemed she said very little.
It was great watching the enjoyment on both of your faces while listening to it :)
Boston's 1st album is like a greatest hits album. every song is great ...like someone said down earlier. To me Brad Delp has one of the best voices ever in rock and roll.. And Tom scholz is a musical genius. "Hitch a ride" is probably my favorite song from them.
Tom Shultz mixed this album in his basement. He went to MIT. He is a master producer. And he played in the band.
Foreplay,short time,long time😂😂 Savio is the best
I have to say that your channel is a who's who of great music ... and your playback sound quality is splendid too :D.
*Kirti*
Namaste’ young one *bows humbly* I enjoyed watching how this song lit you up. I can see how powerfully it moved you within your spirit....
3:12 - WAIT FOR IT, WAIT FOR IT, WAIT FOR IT !!!! HERE WE GOOO......!!!! 👍 NOW SIT BACK AND ENJOY!!! 😎
Yeeeeessssss! Boston!!!
The band that wasn’t actually a band. Only few know the tale....
To think, most of what you heard was an electrical engineer, alone in his basement. Sure, he had a friend come over and sing, and another do the drums. It wasn't like he'd never played in a band, but Tom Scholz was pretty much it. Putting together a band that could perform this music live, and sound near this clean raised the difficulty another magnitude of difficulty. Remember, this was in the days of analog; computers and music editing software, like Protools wasn't around. The musicians actually had to play whole songs.
@Kitten Katt Things weren't that primitive in the 1970's. You could cue up the tape to the point you needed, and record onto a new tape. There would be a little bit more noise from the media, but not much.
Then, that is a lot of trouble, when today, you can just grab a mouse, click on a segment of music, and move it to another part of the song. I image, with enough time on the computer, somebody could make the Shaggs sound professional.
Took him years to make this album. People don't realize that two people made this album in a basement.....who does that today, and sounds this good!?
The real difficulty was that he was ahead of the technology and they couldn't reproduce that sound live.
@Kitten KattAnd also consider the fact Epic wanted the band to record in Los Angeles with a record producer, but Scholz was unwilling and wanted to record the album in his basement studio. Brilliant.
"Reminds me of Thailand" 🤣🤣🤣🤣... I totally understood where you were going with that!
When I take exercise walks this song puts a drive in my step. I love it.
Just found your channel. It is fantastic. I wish you happiness, success and a peaceful soul. 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Heavy metal with melody. If I had to pick only one album to listen to for the rest of my life, this is the one.
The song you are trying to identify around the 12:30 mark sounds like Emerson lake and Palmer's rendition of Nutrocker from the album Pictures at an exhibition.
YEAH... I WAS JAMMING ON THIS AT 7 YRS OLD . OH YEAH
Saw them back in 82 in Tacoma, WA good times great band.
Saw'em around 78 Sammy Hagar opened for them, what a night.
BOSTON ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!🎸🎸🎸🎸🤘🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥
David is one cool dude
Out to is awesome
They are fun to hang out with
This song has the best opining paragraphs ever.
I love watching your videos. *You* are refreshing.👍
loved this whole reaction. your analysis is always spot on.. that tune you are humming is originally from Tchaikovsky 'March' 1890 but has been covered by a couple of rock bands.
Oh gosh.....i love this song
I knew you’d like this! Organized Madness! Good description but there is a method to Tom Scholzes madness! Ever hear the saying Genius is close to Madness? Many Geniuses are considered Madmen because other people don’t understand them or what they are trying to achieve. The classical organ piece you described is the March of the Wooden Toy soldiers by Tsaichovsky! It is reminiscent of that kind of but it’s still an original piece. To my ears it sounds like a classical organ piece by Bach or Beethoven. I’m not sure but it definitely has classical overtones. I really like it! Tom Sholz worked during the day at Polaroid inventing things and building a recording studio in his basement and recording music at night by himself! Plus he learned how play guitar and keyboards. People must of thought he was some kind of crazy hermit or something. But he knew how to play and record and compose and was all self taught apparently. The only thing he didn’t do was sing or play drums.
In the end, he succeeded big time and he was incredibly lucky to find a talented singer like Brad Delp in his city to complete the last piece of the puzzle!
I would have thought the same, that Boston has a long collaboration period for their music. But the truth is, everything in Boston comes from the mind of the guitarist, Tommy Scholz. He plans out everything, plays most of it to achieve what he has imagined, and then has other musicians follow his plans.
After brief investigation I found a band called Dagamba that plays rocked up versions of famous or at least notable classical movements. The fellow of this couple made reference to Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker but in a rock format. I hope this is what you were making reference to- peace and be blessed.
Head bang'n to Boston! I love it.
Thank you for respecting the music that I grew up with. I want to know more about the music you came from. Please educate my ignorance. Seriously, I value your opinion.
To me you two prove music is universal language . Though it seems a lot of today’s music just doesn’t have the feeling and appeal of music from my time. I’m 64. Still , love to see you getting into it. Check out Heart at Kennedy Center Honors and there version of Stairway to Heaven.
Masterpiece!
Handclpas?? Hammond Organ??? - Must be Boston. One of the bands i grew up with. Thanx a lot!
14:34 I think the song that you are referring to is from Tchaikovsky - The Nutcracker: Overture. 🙂 And if not, it's very similar to what you were voicing.
You guys are AWESOME!!!!!!
LMAO love your story about the title! It's good to get a fresh opinion from someone who wasn't here when the song was actually released, I think it's more honest.
You two are wonderful.
Love this song! Check out their song Hitch a Ride from the same album. It is my favorite.
Looks like you stopped headbanging because you got lost in that mesmerizing solo. Haha, good job-
That song that you, Savio, were humming sounds like "The nut rocker" by Emerson, Lake and Palmer(ELP) which again is lifted from a classical, symphonic piece, I think...
Humble recommendation, Dream Theater-Illumination Theory Live. I think you'll enjoy it.
Isn't that song you were trying to think of originally from "The Nutcracker Suite"?
Possibly weaved into an Electric Light Orchestra song as well.
That smile though!
Savio is one cool dude
Kirti is awesome
Boston "We're ready" from the Third Stage album is epic!
