Boston Album Poll

where's the rest ?

I only have heard the debut and Don't Look Back, and I definitely prefer the debut.  I haven't listened to Boston in years though (on my own I mean, besides on the radio and stuff).

Of late though, I've been listening to "Walk on" a lot. It's really grown on me.   What on earth went wrong with "Corporate America", it's so out of place in an otherwise excellent discography.

Apparently Scholz is a bit of an eccentric. Rock emprasario John Kalodner claimed he was the craziest guy he ever worked with, claiming Scholz wouldn't let Kalodner near his house and insisted on meeting Kalodner in person and that once he got a job to write the theme for 'Independence Day'...only delivering the finished work a year late!! Don't know if it's true, but it's a great story.

I never bothered with any of them after 'Don't Look Back'. Such a poor attempt at cloning the genuinely great debut, imo. Weaker in every respect. That said, the positives I've heard about the next two albums make me think I should give them a go at some time.
