Yeah, just saw that. Sad to see him go.

The band Boston in later years wasn't the same as the 70s version, but Brad still could sing well. Sad to see him go.

RIP. You will be missed.

WTF????? That ROYALLY sucks.....
I still remember the day I bought the first Boston on vinyl.....
RIP Mr. Delp........

 

[RycheMaiden]

Definitely a huge loss to the music world. RIP

Gone is one of the most original voices of hard rock. I've not heard anyone who could sing quite like him. The first two Boston albums were excellent. This is sad news indeed.

 

[OdinsCourt]

One of my favorite singers and favorite bands.

Great voice...Shame he was not in the band for all Boston albums. RIP

I can say without any hesitation that Brad and the music of Boston had a profound effect on my life. Brad is easily my all time favorite vocalist (having grown up during that era). Boston created a sound that was unique for it's time, and opened the doors for bands with a "heavier" sound but still maintained that melodic feel. Brad also help create some of the first "Power Ballads" with songs like "More Than A Feeling" and "A man I'll Never Be". Boston's music is timeless to me and I play their music when I feel nostalgic. Brad will be missed and never replaced.

I am a big Boston fan (of their early work) and was shocked to hear this. Brad was a great singer. He will be missed.

Boston is my favorite 70s rock band. Their S/T CD is untouchable!

l was thinking that he recorded vocals on all the Boston releases also. Along with Fran Cosmo on some of them.

He wasn't on the Walk On album (1994). I forget who sang on that one. A Brad Delp sound-alike (pretty close).

 

[Ascension]

Ok...well it had to be Fran Cosmo...l'm pretty sure those are the only vocalists Scholz has had on the Boston material.

I was lucky enough to see them with Delp, and that Boston show was still one of the coolest stage shows I have ever seen. The whole damn stage turned into the ship that is on the cover of THIRD STAGE!!! COOL THE ENGINES is one of the best rock songs and blows my speakers apart when I crank it up in my vehicle!!! Rest in Peace Delp, you will be missed!!!!!

Fran Cosmo sang the lead vocals on "Walk On". Brad rejoined for the tour for that album up to present day.
