quote: Brian Michael Weidemann I had bought a copy of each (for the umtpeenth time)
Boston is the ONLY group that I have bought multiple copies of - in nearly every format.
First, I had them on 8-track, twice, in my sophomore or junior year of high school... wore those out; then, three or four times each on cassette over the years, worn out. Also had them on LP. Just a couple of years ago, I bought both cassettes (Boston I and II) YET AGAIN at truckstops when I was OTR.
Never have I bought so many copies of the same artist!
Back in the 70s, while pursuing my dream of becoming a service engineer, these lyrics held special meaning for me:
It's a long road, I've gotta stay in time with; I've got to keep on chasin' that dream, tho' I may never find it...

Already, there are conflicting stories. This report says it was charcoal grills in the house...
News story quote: ATKINSON, N.H. -- Police released new information on Wednesday night about the death of former Boston lead singer Brad Delp.
Earlier in the day, Delp's family had released a statement that said the 55-year-old's death in his Atkinson home on Friday was the result of suicide.
The first officer at the scene, Atkinson police Lt. William Baldwin, said that Delp's fiancee, Pamela Sullivan, was outside the home and frantic when he arrived.
Sullivan had spent the previous night with friends and went to the home after calling and getting no response from Delp.
Baldwin immediately discovered that the rock star left notes to guide and protect emergency workers.
"We found a note on the door in the garage which led into the house, and we found another note on his bedroom door, 'caution carbon monoxide,' and then there was a little statement on there. We went looking for him. We didn't see him at first," said Baldwin.
Baldwin said that Delp had placed towels under the bedroom door and the door of the master bathroom where he took his own life by carbon monoxide poisoning.
"In the bathroom where he was located there were two charcoal grills that were in the shower that were smoldering slightly," said Baldwin.
Baldwin said he did not know why Delp took his life.
