#IsolatedVocals #Boston #MoreThanAFeeling #BradDelp #IsolatedVocals #KenTamplin
To me, Brad’s death is one of the saddest things in rock history. It hit me hard. To have that voice and end up feeling totally alone is heartbreaking. Yes, we can analyze all we want, but Brad truly sang from his heart. He is the voice of a generation. RIP
Was a real loner
His death broke my heart. Rest In Peace, Brad. 🙏🏻 ❤
Brad had very unique voice...Peace of Mind is my favorite song.
yes
He was a talent on loan to us from God. Sorely missed.
When you first hear this, you think these guys are superhuman. Then when you dissect it, you understand that they are indeed human....and then when you realize Tom and Brad pioneered this 45 years ago in Tom's basement, that he built, you know they are super humans. RIP Brad
Real genius!
Tom is an Engineer, Inventor, Classically trained keyboardist... Visionary. All he needs is an Iron Main suit.
SUPERHUMAN VOICE
@@kentamplin Whenever I hear that Boston song Amanda I just start to lose it, such a emotional powerful vocal with the guitar and melody whoa!
That didn’t use many tricks on brad hes the real deal . They didnt have any pitch correction when this was recording it didn’t exist and he didnt need it
I don’t think Brad realized how amazingly gifted he really was. I wonder if he would be surprised to know that 15 years after his death, people like us are still looking back at his old recordings and asking ourselves, “How the heck did he do that?”
One thing I will never understand is why Boston never made it into the Rock and Roll hall of fame.
No other band will EVER sound like them....they pioneered that unmistakable "Boston" sound.
With Brad's incredible vocals and Tom's incredible sound engineering and production, it just blows my mind that they aren't where they absolutely deserve to be....in the Rock and roll hall of fame,
It's a dam shame!!
It is absurd that they are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Shame on you HOF.
Still gives me the emotional chills 44 years later.
Me too, LudwigSC93!
@@kentamplin I left the music business 30 years ago so I have missed the advances in the Tech. How are you able to isolate tracks with out privey to the master tapes? Still inspiring. I remember this from 4th grade. Dynamics Baby
Me too. 44 years later I'm 52, still a proud fan of metal, mostly modern. My tastes are much much heavier now, but never does a day go by when I don't listen to at least a little Boston.
Dude. I hear ya!
Brad Delp could hit it like no one could. Criminally underrated singer- RIP❤️
never live though
Brad was the real deal! No faking it! No auto tune! Just pure power and range! RIP Brad, you should still be here..
Rock on!
There actually are some effects on his vocals the doubler as ken says
This song is just a masterpiece in every way possible!
Totally!
Totes! 🤘😎🤘
Yep
Amen!
And the whole work, the whole lot!
Boston should be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame! Great Band! Tom Shultz was a musical genius!
Brad is one of the most underrated singers I've ever heard. He's one I don't even attempt to sing along with in my car. Reach a D6 is another level. Very few male vocalists in Rock n Roll have the ability to reach that range without becoming pitchy. He is is criminally underrated.
He was great!
Sorry Casey, but Brad was never and will never be underrated, it can't and hasn't happened....we all know the greatness of his voice and have known since day one of hearing him. Not trying to argue but just stating the obvious.......
Ffs here we go again? Underrated underrated, criminally underrated. Is this always going to be the most over used frigging words to describe artists/muso's and bands? Ive even read it describing Queen,Prince and Steve Vai.
@@jonrichie6110
fight to the death guys!! 🔪 🗡
🍿 🍿 🍿 🍿
@@shape9381 Hahaha!
Trying to replicate Bradley's vocals is a great example of how important proper breathing technique is.
The fact that he doesn't lose power in his upper register is amazing.
Brad Delp is the best singing artist to come out of the USA. Period.
Love him!
Steve Perry, Denis Deyoung., Aeretha, Stevie Wonder, Whitney Houston ....don't forget
@@musiqueprestige9504 don’t forget Micheal Sweet of Stryper who actually did some singing for Boston after Delp passed.
Brad is probably up theree.. I gotta give Steve Walsh of Kansas props too
His voice still gives me the shivers..always will. Sadly missed :(
My wife was in a band years ago and opened for Brad and his other band after Boston (RTZ?). She tells me that Brad always sang that way: softly and gently. He had a deceptive singing voice that was powerful without being overpowering.
He was in a class by himself.
The Man with the Golden Voice---Brad Delp
Brad Delp, what a legend! That first Boston record is a masterpiece
Man, that high note and then the higher note. HE SANG EVERY VOCAL ON THAT ALBUM, harmonies too.
Marianne was Tom Scholz’ cousin. She used to babysit him when he was little. Little Tommy had a crush on Marianne. Then he grew up, and Tom’s crush slipped away. Brad is the best voice in classic rock ever. He was a tender man and never had any air of narcissism a lot of rock stars exhibit. That tender heart took him away from us far too soon! I love you Brad. I named my son after you 💗
Boston’s first album is a true masterpiece. Shultz was a guitar master, but without Delp, this album would’ve never happened. Delp is up there with the Plants and Cornell’s of rock.
Amazing control of his vocals, pick of destiny moment to match with the rhythm of his band mates. Perfection. Absolute perfection.
Thanks for the thoughts.!
Brad had a one in 20 million voice. So sad he died so young. I always love his song "Amanda"
Gone too soon.
BABE, TOMORROWS SO FAR AWAY..SOMETHIN I JUST HAVE TO SAY..GREAT BALLAD.
He was superhuman. Such a nice guy too.
I didn't know he died, 😢
@@mr.balloffur By choice.
Even with just the vocal track, Brad's voice is just SOARING!!!!!!! Amazing!
He was amazing!
Rest in peace Brad. It's a damn shame things ended for him the way it did.
I always knew Brad was an incredible singer. But hearing his vocals isolated, especially the "slipped away" part, just blew me away all over again, almost as if it were the first time I've heard it. Absolutely insane how good his voice was.
I was at summer camp sitting in a canoe with a gorgeous girl named Polly when I first heard this song. Anytime I hear this song, I flash back to that summer day when I was twelve. Good times!
How sweet!
Know you loved third stage then thinking of "Pollyann" lol...
The more I go through these isolated vocals, I realize now why singers don't sound exactly like their albums when singing live. Thanks Ken
👍
Steve, Some singers sound even better live.
"You're Foooorever (Steve) Young....I wana be Forever..." ;-)
Yeah. The studio is a controlled environment. Can do so much that would be hard to do live.
Its why I appreciate Volbeat so much. Michael Poulsen can simply sing. I have seen them live 10 times and he sounds exactly like his CDs.
When he sings the highest note to the ceiling, the guitar makes a higher harmony .
What a crazy, rare, and beautifull arrangement!
I'm a singer and this is one song that has always scared me from taking it on. Really enjoyed hearing how Brad Delp did it.
Thanks for listening!
Incredible song when it came out and still is now.
Rock on!
Rest In Peace, Brad. You were and will always be very talented.
with Rick Beato's analysis of the instrumentation (and some vocals) this is a great combination to hear how it was done. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Rick Beato is the shit been watching him for years to
I like Rick Beato, I think both Rick and Ken were born in '63 like me, good year.
Do you think they could actually do a collaboration and get along. The behind the scenes would be a must watch
Exactly love the 2 of Rick's
Hitch a ride always been my top one
But yes love this and all Your work Ken
We're all as listeners so used to the finished product
Like with the Whitesnake tracks
There's things I never heard in the mix
Great break down in how Brad brings life into that song, I was shocked he once said the "More than a feeling" was a very hard song to sing live. On UA-cam, there are some live concerts, I watched where he actually turned the highest part of the song after the guitar solo where he sings "SHE SLIPPED AWAAAAY, over to FRAN COSMO, he said Fran sings higher than he does, wow he knew his limits and respected other people's talents, Brad actually left a lesson in being humble too, THANKS KEN.
Thanks for watching, Walter!
I read that before he committed suicide, he was being pressured to go back on the road with Boston, but he knew he couldn’t hit those notes anymore and he didn’t have the confidence to go out there. But that was just part of the stress he was under at the time. There were other, more personal, issues going on in his life too.
But yes, I’ve seen some of those live performances and they aren’t great. He was either having a bad day, or he couldn’t sing live the way he sang in the studio. I think it’s a great idea to have someone else sing the very high notes for you if you’re not able to do it anymore, rather than pushing yourself and failing.
🩷 R.I.P. Brad Delp. We love you. 🩷
(Tom, you’re hot shit too, obviously.) 😝
I enjoyed Boston when they came out, but it's almost like it was too overwhelming to appreciate at the time. It's taken me 40+ years to process what a truly phenomenal accomplishment this really was!
I'm glad other people realized the significance and know how to explain it
Back in 1976, When the first Boston album came out. There was no digital, auto tune or sampling. What you hear is naked, completely exposed singing by Brad Delp. I saw him with Beatle Juice and he was incredible. He mastered Paul and John’s voice. They played these very small bars and even High schools. No computers. Nothing to enhance his voice. So when you think for a second that he can be copied, Forget it!!!! Brad Delp got his voice from God himself. I heard the first song off the first Boston album when I was just shy of sixteen.. I jumped on my bicycle and peddled to the record store to buy it. Like so many other artist from my time, The music lives on... Because it was MUSIC!!!!
😀👍
Man Brad Delp could sing! Very underrated. Right up there with Robert Plant and Freddie Mercury. No joke.
Long Time is a backing vocal masterpiece. Brad Delp is just incredible.
Indeed!
Definitely one of my favorite tunes just incredible
Awesome. Tom Sholz was quoted as saying. “Brad had some of the deepest lungs I’ve ever heard, he had such control he could hold a note forever”.
Great take on this. You pointed things out I’ve never noticed before.
Brad's greatness is unparalleled and cannot be reproduced.
Brad's vocal abilities were the reason you didn't hear many cover bands covering the songs of Boston. What a superb voice!
I think it should also be added, that this was recorded in a basement project studio into a lot of homemade gear. There's a golden tone to Brad's sound that sounds untouchable, regardless of gear. No computers. No punching in tons of notes or fixing pitches. It's just him, and he's multitracking like a machine. Those aren't duplicated tracks, that's Brad nailing double after double with insane precision. And if you listen to the original demos (you can find them here on UA-cam), you can hear he does even crazier harmonies on the end of the song.
Thanks for mentioning that, PickettMusic!
When I learned how these were done, I was blown away. Tom had only been playing about a year (iirc) when he played and recorded every part except drums and singing. Then layered Brad's vocals to sound out of this world lol. It's only the last track that was done in a pro studio. I always found the history of their music fascinating, and from his telling sounds a bit like an introvert lol. Nothing short of a musical genius 😊
I seem to remember that Tom said he had to get Brad to sing slightly flat on the doubles because he was nailing the notes so perfectly that they were getting phasing issues.
Tom Scholz produced the hell out of these records. Very much a recording perfectionist.
Notoriously so!
@@kentamplin since Tom was a stickler for attempting perfection, do you think that flat note was left in because it brought a certain nuance to it?
Tom Schultz was such a genius, yet such a very humble musician!
@@ldenorio I think the flatness was left in the recording because the overlain vocals masked the flatness. Remember, this recording was pure analog and done years before auto-tune.
This reminds me of an art history class I took where we had to stop and actually LOOK at something we had only SEEN before. We had to draw our own version, which helped us see more, then discuss symbolism and different techniques used to affect perception and to send a message. You're doing the same thing. Eye-opener to a song I've loved my whole life and heard a thousand times.
PS: I finally had to go plug in headphones to hear better than my cell phone speakers. 😊
Great comparison.
Yes, great comparison, Pam!
@@kentamplin keep up the good work. It's a belated education for me, but I'm enjoying it.
Yeah I agree, I studied art history & did a lot of this kind of thing. Fascinating stuff!
Ken thank you for this. One of the most beautiful songs ever and maybe the greatest rock song ever.
My pleasure, M D!
I love watching More Than a Feeling reaction videos when Brad Delp hits that ridiculous high note. The look on their faces is priceless!
Rock on!
I know this is 3 years ago you did this video I just came across it ive had the privilege to grow up listening to boston still do alot and lately everyday brad Delps voice is pure heaven to my ears and soul and I wish more than anything he could have felt the happiness and love he made us feel with his voice and talent he is by far the best vocalist I ever heard and I grew up in the 70s and 80s it still breaks my heart he felt so lonely and lost his will to live when he was and still is so loved and admired and will always be rest in paradise Brad ❤❤❤
One of the greatest voice in rock history, AND its from the 70s... very important voice lesson here... thank you!
You're very welcome!
This song is a piece of art rockmusic!!
black tarzan 👍
Ken, I like most of your videos that you do on pulling these stems and I feel you do a great job analyzing and instructing.. And you usually give the singer his due..
But on this one you tore one of the best rock singers that ever lived down to a guy that couldn’t sing without layering vocals..lol.. I have been singing for about 30 years and have worked hard to get my chest voice and head voice to match as much as they can.. I’m not taking away from what you do as an instructor, but what you’re calling head voice sounds like you’re using falsetto.. He has a lot more chest in “slipped away” where you are in your head so much it sounds like falsetto..
plus plus one of Brads amazing strengths was his amazing tone.. not mentioned once by you..
I respect what you do and watch all the time. I just think you missed this one.. ✌🏻
Their first album is simply a masterpiece. I understand why it took a while to record. Not a single track is wasted. Even the acoustic playing rhythm along with the electric chugging during the chorus gives it this (meaty?) sound.
Good catch, the electric guitar along with the vocals on a couple parts matching Brad's vibrado is super tight and adds to the power of the song.
While I love this song, my favorite from their debut is Hitch a Ride....
GREAT album!
Mine too 😊
Thank You for this video.. I was lucky to be able to see Brad Delp on their last tour. He sang so great.. All those high parts were given/traded off by Fran Cosmo. I'd like to believe Brad appreciated the help with the highs and harmonies. Brad was so sweet on stage pointing to Fran, getting the audience to applaud him when he'd hit those high notes. Brad was irreplaceable. R.I.P.
Awesome! 😀
I saw them with Fran as well. It was a great way to get to hear Brad, but get some great support on the high notes. I recall riffs like the iconic "HOLLY-AAAAAAAN!"
True. He had problems hitting the high notes at the end of his career and knows it. He is so good to give Fran his due. He was a great guy
Brad Delp rip, is one of the absolute best, period! Kansas as well. I love great voices. Brad's voice makes the hairs on my arm stand up.
This is one of those rare songs that shut me down when it comes on. Dont bother talkin to me during this time.
Killer song!
Ken, this is awesome !!!!! Isolating the vocal tracks reveals all of the beauty & nuances of Brad's voice. Thank you !!!
Brad's verse voice, in addition to being soft and sensitive, is actually way more breathy than I had imagined.
Thanks for the visit!
The HARMONY on the last two notes - A5 to B5 - are INSANE.
It's still a hit today.
That ghost vocal is mind blowing heck the whole freakin song! 🤘🏽 man I’m so glad I grew up in the 70, 80’s! Great times!
Rock on!
Every time I see Brad Delp's name, I remember a dream I had years ago where I somehow went back in time, and I was at a festival. Boston was playing there. They were tuning up, and I saw Brad on stage, looking sad. And obviously I knew what was going to happen years from then, and decided I had to stop him somehow. That's all I remember. Wish that could've come true.
His passion for makin the music to contain BEAUTY is what drives Him to create it.
Thanks for the thoughts!
Brad’s voice is hauntingly similar to the voice of my dream angel who sometimes visits me from the far away realm of stars and illuminated outer space and occasionally take me for a spin in his ride..put rubys into my hand, and told me I’m protected! Oh whata feeling!!🌎🌌🛸
No one can sing this song like Brad
Brad Delp: (Records one of the best vocal performances in history.)
Ken Tamplin: "You can probably sing this song."
Me: "I probably... cannot."
Merry Christmas! 🎅⛄🎄
This was fun! I think the magic of the track is somewhere between brad’s vocals and Tom Scholtz engineering brilliance.
Thanks for listening!
Brad just had some of the best vocals. Those high notes he does so effortlessly are amazing.
It was a golden time for music, all that remains is to wipe away a mean man's tear ..
I have always heard that Brad Delp sang every note on Boston's first album, and I have always believed it as well. What a great singer!
Rock on!
Sad ending to an amazing person and voice. I smile everytime I hear this come on the radio.
met brad 3 times when he was with beatlejuice always did a meet and greet after every show a very kind man and went to his last show before he passed i have his last autograph !!!
Rock on! 😊
Ah, smooth voice! Yep, this is everything I remember about the 70’s and 80’s. All without autotune. 🙌🏻🎶
Well said! Rock on!
It's funny that after all the years of listening to this song and many others, you are saying what I've said about a lot of vocal performances. I've always heard the incredible dynamics, the soft and light vocal parts only to have a lot of power brought in when needed. This confirms what my ears have been telling me my whole life. I really appreciate that. I've written a few songs in that "Boston" mode and have relied on the music a lot to be the real power. Vocals are supposed to be beautiful, no matter what style or technique...this is just my personal belief. Brad Delp exemplified that like few others have. That's why he has always been one of my top five favorite vocalists of all time and one of my biggest influences.
Thanks for the thoughts!
When I saw Boston. I had a stop watch. Brad held a note for 31 seconds. Was insane
The live '76 version ,was when the song peaked to it's highest ,in my opinion,but any version you listen to is just incredible .Quite possibly the best Rock singer ,and song ever !!
Man I wish I could be coached by Ken he's the man such a good teacher 👍🙏
Ken describing the first verse: "You really get the intimacy of that feeling."
Me watching: Why yes, but it's MORE than a feeling isn't it? 😂
Couldn't resist the joke Ken, in all seriousness though I really enjoy these isolated vocal breakdowns, it really helps one understand all of the different dynamics and nuances in these famous voices that you can't always hear over the studio productions. I suggest doing Steve Perry, Peter Cetera, or Chester Bennington next! It would be interesting to hear you dissect these amazing voices 💯❤
Sarah Allen Reed 😆
Bazinga
Most underrated singer of all time
This world has been all the poorer since Brad left it. He was my hero, second only to James Dean. We won't see his like again. Great video, bro.
Love your deep analysis of these vocals. Adds to the enjoyment of this awesome song I already enjoyed. You’ve taken me from wine chugger to wine taster, appreciating all the nuances and details.
Hahaha! That's great!
Nice analogy!
This is one of those songs that I love the first time I heard it, the voice made my eyes grow big and I turn it up when I’m in the car and open the windows and sing along, even if it’s during the cold winter LOL
👍😊
Absolute classic rock song.
hard to imagine anyone doing this track any better than Brad Delp
R.I.P.
Brad him and his lovely sister dear friends of mine so sad he was such a great guy great memories growing up in our Hood! Happy Holidays to you & yours Ken Blessings 🙏🏻
Same to you!
Wow that’s awesome. Such a loss when the world lost Brad.
That is so cool that you knew brad
Funny you mention over and over his gentle voice, Brad was a gentle soul. One of the nicest guys you could ever meet and no doubt a helluva vocalist.
Indeed!
Gosh the way he’s full power and still so full wow
I've never heard the vocal described as flat .... my ear just hears awesomeness ❤ rip Brad Delp
No one had Brad's range and power while still having the good bottom end and weight. So good. He was so musical. Notice he has some harmonic going on like a high tenor and a baritone all at the same time.
That was brilliantly done, top marks. Just wanted to add as well. When Rick Beato did his analysis of this song, he was blown away how Brad Delp was able to harmonise with an Electric Guitar which is towards the end of the song.
To be honest I dont know any singers that can harmonise with an Electric Guitar the way Brad has done in this song.
Brad Delps range is phenomenal. Plus, the harmonising in More Than A Feeling is just breath taking.
What Tom Sholz has done with Boston is pure genius. I read the story on him and how he actually started with the band Boston.
If people get a chance to read Toms story, its definitely worth the read, you wont be disappointed.
I also had no idea that this song in particular is the hardest song to sing in Rock N Roll history. Thank you for that golden nugget.
Thanks for weighing in!
Yes I loved the analysis! But forgive me for totally enjoying Ken's shirt! Where could I get that?
I love this song so much that I learned the bass lines. I gotta tell you. It’s really fun to play along with this song. The power of the bass. 😂
One of the best vocalists ever, best bands ever, these guys rocked :)
How is singing like this just normal conversation? Jesus . . . You're gifted beyond what us mere mortals have.
Thanks for the visit. Rock on!
In my humble opinion, Brad had one of the finest male voices ever. I am very interested in listening to what my man Ken has to say about him. There would be no Boston without Brad. Great video Ken!!!
Thanks for listening, Ellis!
This was a great choice of artist and song, I was fortunate enough to see Brad live and meet with him. Brad was one of the nicest and really modest people that I have ever met and just amazing to hear live I'll never forget it. I'm a musician and I'm familiar with how songs get recorded sometimes but seeing Brad live I have to stress how amazing he really was, period. RIP Brad Delp🙏
Brad delp is unappreciated he is such a beautiful voice
Here’s a suggestion for isolated vocals. Michael Hutchence of INXS
Great suggestion!
Even better for a 'what makes this singer great'. Michael is far more than just his voice, their Wembley performance is a benchmark imo.
Suicide blonde?
Crazy, I was gonna make a suggestion for Michael for "what makes this singer great" after watching _Mystify_ . Absolutely love his voice, it's so raw and so powerful, like a punch to the face lol. There's also something charismatic in the way he sings, I can't even describe it. It's like when he sings you can't help but listen 😊
Good idea!
Even without all the layers he sounds amazing. Still my favorite singer of all time, though now I get to hear him without all the bells and whistles lol. Listening to it gave me chills and some tears. His voice may not be perfect, but it is angelic. Found myself crying throughout the video though. For some reason his death hits harder now than it did at that time (I was about 17 then).
Loved hearing all the many Brads as backing though lol. I hadn't realized it was all him, so definitely fascinating. And that little "oooh-oooh-oooh" before the chorus, I never even noticed cause the guitar drowns it out, sadly. I've been in awe of his voice for years, and even now I am still. I liked hearing you match it too, that's always fun. Great video Ken, even though I couldn't stop crying lol 😊
RIP Brad 💐
Rock on! Thanks for listening! 😀
@@kentamplin You too, and you're welcome 😊
"I brought in Brad to do the vocals...and thank God I did!" - Tom Scholz in a TV interview.
Suicide Sucks. RIP Brad. Ken you're a great instructor.
Ken: You have opened up a whole new world for me vocally......Although I sometimes used it, I never really understood what head voice was. To me, it was either belting it out (chest voice), or full falsetto. I sang professionally thru the 90’s never knowing I could reach notes that I thought were other worldly w/ head voice (and you prove here in your videos that these incredible vocalists use head voice a lot to reach those other worldly highs). You are a masterful & FUN teacher!!! Thank you!!
Rock on.
Glad you did this. It’s amazing how he vocalizes past the words; and harmonizes with the guitar. Steve Perry in Wheel in the Sky also performs a similar vocal during the guitar solo
Rock on!
TIL...One of my favorites from Journey, and I didn't even know it 😊
Timothy Wiebe SP also does it on Somethin' To Hide and Winds Of March. Nice catch.
Wheel in the sky is my favorite journey song and feeling that way/anytime is a close second
To bad depression took away such a great voice I was 10 when this song came out in 1976 if he knew how his singing is entertaining people all these years later
When I see guys who look like this dude, all I see is.....someone who enjoys their life. Never hear of/seen you before now. I love Brad Delp vox so thats how I found this. Right on brother ✌🏻
Happy to have you here, Joe!
Its downright freaky at how much range and power Brad Delp had in his voice...
Thanks for the visit! Rock on!
Holy Smoke I heard this song a million times, But when you Broke it down You Made it even more Cool..👍👍👍 You got some Ninja Skills my Brother 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽👌
Rock on!
Ken mentions him in the video, but Rick Beato does a great breakdown of this song in his series "What Makes This Song Great."
