    In the mid 70's I was a kid serving in the Navy aboard the USS America ( aircraft carrier). In 1976 we had been in the Mediterranean for most of the year and were getting ready to go back to the world (US) when someone's girlfriend sent him a Boston cassette tape. It just blew us away. By the time we reached Norfolk a couple of weeks later that tape had been duped hundreds of times. We sun-bathed on the flight deck on the way across the Atlantic listening to Boston and we knew every word to every song by the time we made it home.

    Imagine being in your 20s, working so hard, to live your rock and roll dream, finding bumps in the road, then FINALLY, it happens! Seeing Tom smiling like crazy and enjoy himself not only warms my heart, but it inspires me, a 20-year-old, too. I think that him and Brad have one of the coolest rock and roll stories ever.

Now again, I am a HUGE fan and I love their live sound, it's raw and it's real, and it's just the four of them with no additional musicians, but it certainly does not sound like their studio sound.

      Classic Rock of the 70's and 80's had those signature bands that were one of a kind and it was a moment in history that will never be again. I remember as I was growing up then. I miss it. Everything seems so manufactured these days. Maybe I'm just getting old. But, the world seems so stale now - a shell of what it was when I was growing up.

    On the road and tryin' to make ends meet
    Playin' all the bars, sleepin' in our cars
    And we practiced right out in the street
    No, we didn't have much money
    We barely made enough to survive
    But when we got up on stage, and got ready to play
    People came alive
    Rock and roll band everybody's waitin'
    Gettin' crazy, anticipatin'
    Love, and music, play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Dancin' in the streets of Hyannis
    We were getting pretty good at the game
    People stood in line and didn't seem to mind
    You know everybody knew our name
    Livin' on rock and roll music
    Never worried 'bout the things we were missin'
    When we got up on stage
    And got ready to play everybody'd listen
    Rock and roll band everybody's waitin'
    Gettin' crazy, anticipatin'
    Love, and music, play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Playin' for a week in Rhode Island
    A man came to the stage one night
    He smoked a big cigar
    Drove a Cadillac car and said
    Boys, I think this band's outta sight
    Sign a record company contract
    You know I've got great expectations
    When I hear you on the car radio
    You're gonna be a sensation
    Rock and roll band everybody's waitin'
    Gettin' crazy, anticipatin'

      Your just seeing us all after 8 hours of exhausting heat and music and thunderstorms, we all ran for shade and refreshments.

    Barry Goudreau was so underrated providing vocal harmonies and switching off lead guitar w/Tom Scholz on the first 2 albums.
