The reader of this review must place himself/herself in the time of the mid-seventies when creativity and proficiency in the music industry was encouraged by the AOR execs; before the "cookie-cutter" approach with very limited musical parameters was adopted for revenue-generation by the record companies. Creativity far exceeded technological advancement in recording production at the time Boston hit the scene. I will never forget the first time I heard "More Than a Feeling" over the air-waves; I knew the "bar had been raised" for every record produced subsequent to this release. The dynamic range of this song had far exceeded any rock production I had heard up to this point. The fluidity and smoothness of the instrumentation in this song coupled with Brad Delp's stratospheric vocal range guaranteed Boston a place in the future annals of rock music's history! Enjoy and listen closely; you will hear something in this song you have not heard before!
