[Heeplist] New Boston cd out today

[Kevin Julie]

I really liked past Boston releases, even Corporate America had a few good tracks, but Tom really has no new ideas this time out -- rehashing old songs, and the over-production and drum machines -- total crap! this is one Boston album I may eventually get for the sake of hearing Brad Delp, but after 10 years - it is a very weak offering, imo.

Brad is on 3 or 4 tracks of the new cd (I guess the vocal tracks were
recorded before he left).  I have listened to the new Boston about 4x now
Out of the 12 songs there are 4 or 5 I really like, the rest are decent and
likeable.  It does sound like Boston but when the lady sings, it sounds less
like Boston and the replacement male lead has a similar high voice to Brad
but no range.

As previously stated by myself, through the medium of an opinion, the first
lp was so strong it could never be duplicated.  The second lp was decent but
came out to capitalize on their success, the 3rd was many, many many years
later but done to fill the contractual agreement for a 3rd lp. (if I
remember properly, do not hold me to the facts)

Take Care, Everyone.
