The local Album Rock FM station was playing the whole album late at night about a week ahead of the albums release...and I recorded it on my cassette deck to play in my truck to and from college. The day the LP was released, I had to stand in line to get my copy. I played this album so much that I wore out two copies of the vinyl album. I have it...and all of Boston's other albums on CD...and keep them in my SUV now. I still get goosebumps when I listen to their albums!! Thanks for the great reaction... it's the same reaction I had nearly 45 years ago...I was in awe of their talent!
Tom Scholtz is the lead guitarist, and he is epic. His regular job was an engineer at Kodak, the film people. He composed the songs and produced and recorded the entire album in his basement studio that he put together HIMSELF! No auto-tune. No pitch correction. No computers, just Tom's talent with the instruments and the recording equipment, and Brad Delp, who is possibly the best rock vocalist of all time. I think the part that astounded you early in the song was that there was a high guitar note that brad took over with his voice and then the guitar took it up a notch and then Brad took it back and took it higher. At one point, "I close my EYES and she slips away. She slips awaayyyy-ayyy AYYYY" He goes right up to a D5 and you think that's all there is, and he goes another step up to an E5! The man had a FOUR octave range!
This song is a masterpiece!!! Nothing that's out today can even compare... the lead singers name is Brad Delp...he took his own life in 2007 at the age of 55 after fighting severe depression he gave up and it's so sad he was so incredibly talented but he left a lot of beautiful music for us to listen to!!!
One of the biggest debut albums ever. This was played to death in the 70s. With good reason. It is flawless. The production sounds current and its 45 yrs old.
Absolutely! It is the best of one of the greatest. And he needs to know that virtually all the music is performed by ONE man, an engineer who invented new devices to create the sounds he wanted!
Dude, that second where someone's talent leaves you in a place where all you can do is giggle (3:23). I saw you land there, I instantly felt where you were, and in that very second you became exactly the fan Boston wrote this for.
The guy who wrote the song also played ALL THE INSTRUMENTS, and also recorded himself playing the instruments (he might have mixed the audio too), and he even designed, engineered, and BUILT the audio equipment that modifies the sound of the guitars. This is why Boston has such a unique sound. They are the only band in the world with that equipment. Also, there is only one singer (Brad Delp) and he sings all parts.
Boston is really just one person. Tom Scholz the lead guitarist wrote the entire album. Played every instrument on the album. Sang all the backup vocals on the album. Recorded the album in his basement with old equipment, equipment he bought and equipment he invented and made himself. He was also the sound engineer and the producer. His friend Brad Delp is the lead vocalist. Minus one song this album was finished before a record company ever heard it. Every song on this album is great. Tom invented the rock guitar pedal that allows for various sound changes to the range of music a guitar can change instantly instead of having to change guitar or tune it, etc. Now every musician that plays a stringed instrument uses the pedal system he invented. Great reaction. Thanks for sharing. chris
You can no longer see Boston live or at least this version since lead singer Brad Delp died. Sadly he had a very unique voice and singing style. Every single song on the first album is amazing. You can literally play it from start to finish, More than a Feeling is the first song on the album, followed by Peace of Mind then Foreplay/Longtime then Rock and Roll Band, and on and on. Chris
@@chrisbricky7331 , actually you can still see them live. I saw them about 5 years ago in Chattanooga, Tn at the Riverbend festival. New lead singer is good but he's not Brad. They use female backup singers to take over the note from the lead and take it higher but they blend very well. They still put on a show very much worth seeing
I think I showed Brad lots of love since I do not think seeing what passes for Boston right now is 'Boston' without Brad Delp. Just my opinion. I appreciate that Tom and the rest of the band, etc need work and everything. But for me, Boston is Tom and Brad's voice. Chris
Boston is my favorite band! Try these songs: Hitch a Ride, Smokin, Foreplay/Longtime, Peace of Mind, Something About You, Party, Feelin Satisfied, Don't Look Back, Amanda, Let me Take you home Tonight, Rock and Roll Band, Cool the Engines
@@dartbull24 Gonna have to disagree. "Cant'cha Say" is the best (and most underrated) song on Third Stage. That guitar solo is one of Boston's greatest. But more importantly, the whole album is underrated. Not quite as good as their first two, but it definitely deserves more love than it gets.
Kansas "Dust in the Wind", Foreigner "Cold as Ice" Journey "Send her my love" Mr. Mister "Broken Wings" Michael McDonald "I keep forgettin'" Doobie Brothers "Listen to the Music" other great 70's and 80's songs
Your reaction was totally legit. When this album broke in 1976, it blew the roof off of the rock world. The compositional quality, performance, recording techniques, vocal harmonies, volume dynamics, guitar distortion, and energy in these songs was more than the average young person's mind could comprehend and contain. We had never heard anything like it. I was 21 at the time, and when their songs came on the radio, we'd get so excited we couldn't control ourselves! We would scream, and have to pull the car over! It was a mind-blowing experience...for real. I'll never forget it.
"More Than a Feeling" is just the opening track of one of the best rock debut albums of all time. The entire album is worth listening to. And it's from 1976!! Bradley Delp (RIP) was one of the most beautiful lead singers!
So I know I’m not the only old lady in the comments and I know you’re listening and scrolling and reading this so I have a question for the older men and women out there watching this is there anybody else who wants to go to these kids houses and just take a stack of like DVDs and make them watch every movie from like the 80s and 90s because I want to be like y’all should know this music you really should and it pleases me so much it makes my soul happy that they are discovering this new music now is it just me comment below
Don't forget the 70s too, haha, even Saturday Night Live TV in the 70s - best ever! And Ed Sullivan show, lots of great groups on there from the Beatles in the 60s onward!
When this was released in '76, it hit the airwaves like a tsunami. Everyone had to buy this Album & it was that much of a game changer to the music industry!
You had the same reaction I did when I was 15 years old and heard them for the first time in 1976. Boston is just a level above every other band....ever. If I was limited to only one album to listen to for the rest of my life, this would be the one.
I remember exactly where I was, and what I was doing, when I heard certain songs for the first time, such as Billie Jean, and Iced Ice Baby. I don't even remember hearing this song for the first time, though I heard it many times. All I remember is that, I liked it.
Great appreciation my brother I am a 53 year old rocker Latino man and this song is a master piece for the melody with this hight notes and the way they arranged this song was awesome like many other songs in the 70s and 80s it blow our minds Pure Talent bro.❤🎸🎶🎵🎶🎵😄👌👌
As a senior citizen, maybe you can now understand why my generation thinks that today's music is garbage, compared to our generation's music. We had fantastic bands that didn't have auto tune, or any of the other BS stuff that they have today. We had great groups, like The Righteous Brothers, Boston, Fleetwood Mac, Simon and Garfunkle, Spanky and Our Gang, The Four Tops, Diana Ross and the Supremes, Smokey Robinson and the Miracles, The Stylistics, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Herman's Hermits, Paul Revere and the Raiders, Donovan, Dylan, The Moody Blues, The Grass Roots, The Mamas and the Papas, Abba, Buffalo Springfield, Carly Simon, Carol King, and the list is endless. Every week, a group would release a new song that went to number one, and we all had transistor radios, and we would listen to all of this music. Today's generation has no idea of how great our music was....unless, like you, they go back and listen to it. I bought the Beatles Anthology many years ago, and my daughter asked if she could listen to it, so I played it for her. After listening to all of the songs on it, she asked me if she could have the two CDs, so I gave them to her and bought another set of them. You have just listened to how great music was back in the day, and nothing today can ever compare to that type of music. Our music didn't contain vulgar words, it was just pure music, and the melodies of our music transcends time, as you have noticed. Anyway, thank you for taking the time to listen to the music from my generation, and reacting to it. If more people would do that, they would reject the crap that is being put out these days, and demand the type of music that my generation experienced.
@Kahless I just listened to those three so called "artists" that you mentioned, and as I thought, it's all (c)rap music. That's NOT music, that's some idiot talking into a microphone. ...not to mention that they often use foul language, as if that makes them cool. Sorry, but if you think that your kind of music is music, then I feel sorry for you.
I say basically the same thing as often and as loudly as I can, in the hopes of rescuing some kids from the spiritual poison called rap and hip hop. It isn't even music but rather repetitious chants of boring, violent and vulgar GARBAGE! And then one rapper murders another one routinely! If that is what they think music should be about then they belong in prison! And if they murder ANYONE they should be executed! Period! This is what music corporations have foisted on kids with simpleton intellects. It is helping to destroy our civilization and turning out an ever larger and new generation of criminals. You will eventually become what you listen to. Really!
One man's garbage is another man's masterpiece. You should know that by now. And all of those "great" groups were influenced, or stole from even greater black groups, that really influences today's music, as well as yesterday's tunes. And most of that music, back in the day, was really garbage, but people got to know those songs because they were forced fed to listening audiences on a daily basis through radio, when that was all that was available to listen to. There are songs today, that would put a lot of older songs to shame, which are the ones you hear the most on all of these talent shows, being covered. Once in a while you'd hear an older song being covered, which is rare. So just stop it.
@@benx104 There was garbage back then. True. There are really good songs today. Also true. But today the garbage that is out there is pure evil garbage...back then, not so much. I hope no one ever claims that pure evil, filthy, Satanic garbage is a "masterpiece".
One of the best bands ever, was devastated when the lead singer committed suicide in 2007. Other than maybe Queen and Lynyrd Skynyrd (Freebird), your right.
Saw one of their first concerts…barely had any people there…it was like somebody threw a party and Boston was the musical guest!!! Cant begin to say what a concert it was…one of the best I’ve ever seen and back then I was going to a concert every freaking month…awesome bands when I was growing up…this concert I believe I was like 17…1975-76?…45 YEARS AGO!!! Saw them 3 more times…never was as special as #1 but how could they be???? These memories are priceless!!
this is as close to perfection as one can get, and Brad Delp's otherworldly vocals puts it in a league of its own. Back in the day this was a definite headphone record!
Best concert ever! Tom Scholtz it a master of the guitar and keys. He recorded all the guitar parts in his basement. Best feel good music! Love the smile! Check out Holly Ann and Amanda by Boston.
One of the best, used this when setting up my stereo. His vocal range is perfect. Loved this full blast going down the highway or after a joint. I'm in Canada where it's legal, thank God. Bloody talented group. ......"more than a feeling "....right on.
In the 70s there were 7 of us and our girlfriends and whenever Boston was in concert within 250 miles of us we went to the concerts. I saw them numerous times in Raleigh and Durham, NC, Charlotte, NC, Atlanta GA, Bristol TN and Nashville TN. Back then in the mid to late 70s there was no "white and black music. It was just (our) music. Our music then as now only had positive meanings. It's great to see all these podcasts finding out now what we have known for almost 50 years
I'm an old dude. This is the sixth More Than a Feeling reaction I've watched this evening. Every stinking one of you give me the feeling I had when I listened at your age because you are feeling the same thing. I love it. Brings back such great feelings. And I'm happy for you!!
You're right--Boston is upbeat, positive music and so are their lyrics. They deal with everyday life in a way that anyone can relate to, but they are uplifting, and anytime you're in a bad mood, put on a Boston record, because they are like sunshine on a cloudy day
An experience like no other! Foreplay/Longtime. This is from Boston’s debut album. Produced and recorded in a basement by TWO guys! One of the 70’s Top Selling Album, along with Heart’s debut album.
Boston are/were flyers in the world of upbeat hard rock. They're part of my present, my past, and for however long I live! Thank you for reacting to this tune! Boston forever!!
Boston is next ten levels. Even today they are leagues above many other artists. And this song in particular rocked an entire generation. Long live Boston!!!
LOL LOVE Love this Reaction.. Welcome to the Genius Talent we grew up with! That whole Album is FIRE.. But More than a Feeling is LEGENDARY.. No Voice like Brad Delp's.. and Tom Sholz the one who Started the band.. and Lead Guitarist is a GENIUS with Composition.. Research into them.. There will NEVER be another BOSTON! Thanks for keeping them ALIVE! Rip Brad
Tom Sholtz was an MIT graduate and worked for Poloroid. After he left Poloroid he created electronics to get their sound. Rock bands from all over purchased his creations to get that great guitar sound. He also self taught himself to play the guitar. He produced this whole album in his basement and played most of the instruments on these songs.
Brad Delp, the lead singer (R.I.P.) was an amazing vocalist. His range was insane. Man, it's beyond awesome to see the younger generation, our future, discovering classic rock. Thank you for doing this. Many blessings my friend.
Hey there. I just subscribed today! Enjoying you! So glad you're doing Boston - their whole first album is a master piece. Please do Foreplay/Longtime next then just do all of 'em!
This is the correct response to hearing Boston.
I agree 100%.
@@coolmomjj48 Yes!
Right on!
No doubt.
Truth.
Brad Delp's voice was absolutely unbelievable. To me, nobody else compares.
47 years later and it NEVER GETS OLD
BOSTON....arguably the greatest debut album ever released!
DAMN STRAIGHT.
And you’ll win the argument 9 out 10 times. Only 3 songs were “released” as singles yet all were hits
It WAS the fastest selling album of ALL TIME. After being shut down by MULTIPLE rock labels!
🤘🤘🤘
I don't think it's arguable.

young man, I'm 40 and seeing a teen reacting to this song makes me wanna cry. How a kid totally embraces the 70s hit. Awesome, man
I'm 64, I remember it when it dropped back in the day, and seeing his reaction makes me want to cry too!
This song is a masterpiece!!!

This entire album is a MASTERPIECE.
It’s scary that e singer’s voice is higher than the guitars. He’s amazing!
Facts and hearing the little harmony he does with the guitars before the chorus is legendary
Crazy that when you think Brad Delp won't go higher he does...and holds the note!!!!!
Boston's "More Than A Feeling" is truly a classic rock anthem and it is pure FIRE!!! It will never get old!!!
This is the reaction we all had in 1976. Our minds were blown!
No limit, You are listening to a period of music that probably will never be duplicated.
So true. For me, the decade '75 to '85 is simply unparalleled.
True
So true!! Saw Boston in 79
One of the biggest debut albums ever. This was played to death in the 70s. With good reason. It is flawless. The production sounds current and its 45 yrs old.
This song should be in everyone's top 10, it's that good!
"Foreplay/Long-time" by Boston is just as great, if not, better.
Yes..better. He’s gotta do this next
Absolutely...Foreplay/ long time!!
He needs to prepare to get his mind blown!! 🙃
Yes, Foreplay/Long-time will blow you away with every listen.
Yes!
Absolutely! It is the best of one of the greatest. And he needs to know that virtually all the music is performed by ONE man, an engineer who invented new devices to create the sounds he wanted!
Best debut album by one of the best guitar rock bands

This is one of the greatest pop/rock songs ever written. It is in my top 20 of all time. This song also put Boston on the map. No pun intended.

Brad Delp's voice is indescribable. Arguably the most amazing voice in Rock N Roll history. Gone too soon. RIP Brad Delp.
This is what people need to see !! One of the greatest underrated groups in rock history

The true meaning of 'feel-good' music. I call listening to Boston a Vibrational Tune-Up!
The vocal range is insane. Off the charts. And the guitar work? Ridiculous. Such a great band. They kill me.
Try the Moody Blues, Nights in White Satin.
My mum (86yo) loves that song, and we’ve seen Moody Blues in concert twice.
agresticumbra
it’s a good one for sure.
EVERYTHING the Moody Blues. You'll jam, and you'll cry. From "Nights in White Satin", to "I'm Just a Dinger in a Rock and Roll Band"

Lol it's also completely legal for well over 100 million Americans - which absolutely dwarfs the number of Canadians it's legal for.
OK, I'm pretty sure I can say this band is lit.And I mean that in the most honest way. This band is lit, I don't care what generation you are.
Dude, Boston is one the greatest rock bands of the 70's.
Your facial expression at the beginning ,
PRICELESS 😅😅
In the 70s there were 7 of us and our girlfriends and whenever Boston was in concert within 250 miles of us we went to the concerts. I saw them numerous times in Raleigh and Durham, NC, Charlotte, NC, Atlanta GA, Bristol TN and Nashville TN. Back then in the mid to late 70s there was no "white and black music. It was just (our) music. Our music then as now only had positive meanings. It's great to see all these podcasts finding out now what we have known for almost 50 years
I'm an old dude. This is the sixth More Than a Feeling reaction I've watched this evening. Every stinking one of you give me the feeling I had when I listened at your age because you are feeling the same thing. I love it. Brings back such great feelings. And I'm happy for you!!
Guess I'm not the only one one
We Had the best music
You've just heard one of the greatest Rock Songs of all time, and to your credit, you seemed to know that.
Iconic 70s rocker. Maybe the most iconic. Every young mans car carried this cassette...
every song on this album is good, but you should do hitch a ride
Legit one of the only albums in my library that is front to back bangers. Legendary.
All their songs are this great too. That’s the crazy thing. Nothing but absolute BANGERS.
Now THIS was music!! Insane vocals, relatable lyrics and brilliant musicianship. This song gives such a sense of nostalgia. ❤
You're right--Boston is upbeat, positive music and so are their lyrics. They deal with everyday life in a way that anyone can relate to, but they are uplifting, and anytime you're in a bad mood, put on a Boston record, because they are like sunshine on a cloudy day
Check out " Renegade" by Styx... you will flip out. !!
Boston is in the top 5 favorite bands of almost everybody from the 70’s!
Every song on this album is a BANGER! One of the greatest albums ever made.
Boston was my favorite rock band in my senior year of high school, 1976-77 and they are still my favorite. Still cant get enough of that
An experience like no other! Foreplay/Longtime.
This is from Boston’s debut album. Produced and recorded in a basement by TWO guys!
One of the 70’s Top Selling Album, along with Heart’s debut album.
Boston are/were flyers in the world of upbeat hard rock. They're part of my present, my past, and for however long I live!
Thank you for reacting to this tune! Boston forever!!
You'll love "Peace of Mind", "Rock N Roll Band" and "Foreplay/Longtime." Really popular in the 70's.
RIP Brad Delp. Lead singer of BOSTON. Nobody has a voice like he did. Nice video . Mad love my brother
The vocals, guitar and drums come together to make one of the best rock songs ever.
Boston is next ten levels. Even today they are leagues above many other artists. And this song in particular rocked an entire generation. Long live Boston!!!
Dude... This is a tame Boston song... Try "Foreplay/long time" It will blow you away.
Boston is one of the best!! Truly beautiful music. I saw them in 2016, they were AMAZING.
If you liked the energy, mood uplifting vibe that More Than A Feeling had, you'll definitely appreciate Don't Stop Me Now (Queen).
My friend and I snuck in a side door to see Boston in 1980 Seattle .... it was FIRE !!!!!
Over 40 years of listening to this song. It is timeless!
LOL LOVE Love this Reaction.. Welcome to the Genius Talent we grew up with! That whole Album is FIRE.. But More than a Feeling is LEGENDARY.. No Voice like Brad Delp's.. and Tom Sholz the one who Started the band.. and Lead Guitarist is a GENIUS with Composition.. Research into them.. There will NEVER be another BOSTON! Thanks for keeping them ALIVE! Rip Brad
Boston A Man I’ll Never be . You will not be disappointed !!!!
One of the very best songs in history.❤️
Boston , all their songs. Good cruising music or just being by yourself. They never disappoint still.
I can listen to this over and over and over and over...just out of this world amazing
I'm healed. This makes me so happy. Beautiful man.
The band that saved rock and roll from disco.
The immediate joy on your face the second brad’s voice came in 😍
Tom Sholtz was an MIT graduate and worked for Poloroid. After he left Poloroid he created electronics to get their sound. Rock bands from all over purchased his creations to get that great guitar sound. He also self taught himself to play the guitar. He produced this whole album in his basement and played most of the instruments on these songs.
Brad Delp, the lead singer (R.I.P.) was an amazing vocalist. His range was insane. Man, it's beyond awesome to see the younger generation, our future, discovering classic rock. Thank you for doing this. Many blessings my friend.
Boston is fantastic! Keep listening to them! One is better than then next..............they totally ROCK IT!,
Gotta do Boston -Foreplay,Longtime
I love the way you react to the bands we grew up with, I miss this music,thanks for being a time machine.
CLASSIC ROCK " IT'S MORE THAN A FEELING " DAMN STRAIGHT IT IS.
You are a very intelligent and handsome young man. I am impressed that you have a open mind to accept other kinds of music. 😊
I love seeing anyone hearing Boston for the first time. They become instant fans!! Great reaction, Foreplay/Long Time is a must!
Dude ..yes! Its More Than A Feeling...Boston is just Boston ...never gets old hearing them 😁
I started singing right when I read the title LOL. So many great songs that I wish I could hear for the first time.
Saw them live! Welcome to my world! The "spaceships" on the album cover are guitars...upside down, btw
I had the pleasure of seeing them live twice. OMG they were awesome LIVE!!!!
Hey there. I just subscribed today! Enjoying you! So glad you're doing Boston - their whole first album is a master piece. Please do Foreplay/Longtime next then just do all of 'em!
Bro, you like that one, you're gonna love "Foreplay/Long time"!!
