Boston lead singer Brad Delp dies at 55
Brad Delp, the lead singer for Boston, a huge rock sensation in the 1970s, was found dead Friday in his home, police said. He was 55.
Atkinson police responded to a call for help at 1:20 p.m. and found Delp dead. Police Lt. William Baldwin said in a statement the death was "untimely" and that there was no indication of foul play.
Delp apparently was alone at the time of his death, Baldwin said.
The cause of his death remained under investigation by the Atkinson police and the New Hampshire Medical Examiner's office. Police said an incident report would not be available until Monday.
Delp fronted the rock band, who rose to fame in the late 1970s and had several hits, including "More than A Feeling." The group sold millions of records.

I've been listening to Boston again over the past several months. Very sad news. My condolences to his friends and family. A great voice that will be sorely missed.

This is definitely kind of fucking sad.
The dude was only 55 man.
That's pretty young when you think about it.
R.I.P. Brad.
On Friday night, the bands Web site was taken down and replaced with the statement: "We just lost the nicest guy in rock and roll."
A call to the Swampscott, Mass., home of Boston guitarist Barry Goudreau was not immediately returned Friday night.

I got to see Boston in concert 5 years ago or so. They put on a good show. 55 is way too young. A sports columnist for my local paper died earlier this week and he was only 55 too. Quite a shame.

Boston Vocalist Brad Delp Found Dead
March 10, 2007, 12:00 PM CT
Jonathan Cohen, N.Y.
Boston vocalist Brad Delp, who sang on classic rock staples like "More Than a Feeling," "Don't Look Back" and "Long Time," was found dead at his southern New Hampshire home yesterday (March 9), according to local police. He was 55. The artist was home alone at the time and there was no indication of foul play.
Delp powerful, high-register singing was an integral part of Boston's ascent to rock superstardom in the mid- and late 1970s. The group's self-titled 1976 album is often credited as the top selling debut in American history with 17 million copies; the 1978 follow-up, "Don't Look Back," shifted four million in its first month of release.
However, the band went long periods of time without new music, reappearing sporadically with different lineups. A 1986 hit, "Amanda," re-energized Boston, but Delp exited in 1991 to pursue music with former Boston member Barry Goudreau. Boston went on to release just two new studio albums in the ensuing two decades.
Delp returned to the band to sing on new songs recorded for a 1997 greatest hits album. Boston was said to have been working on a new release for the past several years, but no information has been revealed as to how far along the band was in the process.

Same here
I agree completely. His voice was special. It would be a bit like the current Queen setting touring with Paul Rodgers..
Nowhere close.
I am listening Boston at the moment.

It's very sad that someone at that age passed away and judging by what I've read he was a genuinely nice guy.

Dude what a bummer.
I can't believe he chose to end his life in such a manner. Could things have really been that bad?
