I would love to see someone do an interview with Fran Sheehan the bass player of Boston, that would be great.

Wow, what an interview! Thank you. Barry's contributions to Boston with all those harmony guitar solos and vocal high harmonies to Brad, are my favs of the Boston sound. He's a legend. FYI, that dual guitar solo with Barry and Tom on Hitch a Ride, is my all time fav guitar solo.

@barryjames9404 2 жыл бұрын

That dual guitar solo with Barry and Tom on Hitch a Ride? just so you know that was all Tom, Barry has even went on the record to say he did not play at all on that song.

@superfluppe Жыл бұрын

Tom was the guy who liked and played the harmony solos. He's the brain behind the style and sound of Boston. If you listen to Barry's solo album, Orion The Hunter or RTZ you won't find too much of those harmony solos and clever arrangements. Barry even dropped the iconic Boston guitar sound after his first solo album because that was Tom's sound and not his. Barry started out as the lead guitarist for Boston but soon turned out to be nothing more than a hired gun. Tom was learning fast and his guitar playing became the most important ingredient of the Boston sound.

@brianshaffneraclc Жыл бұрын

It's all true. He may be a tyrant, but if you're a Boston fan, ya gotta Scholze his due; 'cause he was mostly the architect of their sound. It is worth noting, however, that early on (pre Boston) Scholz learned a lot about playing lead guitar from Barry. Tom did absorb and copy elements of Barry's style, but then used it in a much grander, more expansive way.

Yes I agree its a wow interview and to hear a lot of information directly from the person instead of here say and stories told and retold by third person and such, because these days nothing is what it seems and one cannot believe everything one sees, computer age and technology. Brad is my inspiration and to hear from someone very close to him is like hearing from Brad going back to those time. Barry Goudreau thank you so much and you look so young after all these years and I dont see any lines at all and must be all the love and music and family.. Brad lives on and so are you with your music and humble personality just like the person I adore forever. Peace be with you and your family.

I really liked those first two Boston albums growing up. I still love them today and I have multiple LPs, different pressings or different remasters, of those albums today. Brad Delp was an amazing singer. It was really sad to hear that he had passed from suicide 16 years ago. Barry seems like a really nice guy. I would have loved to have been at one of those Led Zeppelin Boston Tea Party shows like he mentioned. I've got recordings of two or three of those nights they played. Heck, I even have a poster from the concert, or at least one of the nights, hanging in my music room I really would like to ask Barry some questions about the 1979 Giants Stadium show they played where a professionally shot video exists from it. Throughout the video it switches between black and white and color. I always wondered why it was done that way and I wonder if he had any knowledge of the video or why it was filmed like that? I wish they would have officially release that one in the best quality possible 👍 Great interview and thanks for doing it! Brian in Fort Worth,, 🎶

Thank you John for a great interview!! Barry is an amazing talent. As young fans back in the day, I’m sure many of us assumed that Scholz played all the leads and Barry did the rhythms. Not the case at all. And verified when Barry mentions he did the leads on Foreplay/Longtime. Gosh- what a thrill it would be to see him playing with “Skunk” Baxter !

@These_go_to_eleven_1959 4 ай бұрын

Yes Barry "played" the parts for live shows but Scholz was the guy that wrote and played those solo's on Foreplay/ Long time on the record! It is his melodies he wrote. Barry used what was on Scholz's original studio tape and learned it note for note to play live. Tom insisted Barry play what he wrote. This is a Fact!

Tx aft go er the show met a couple of Girls and set at my table the Bass Play Barry mentions on here Really Nice Guy sat at our table and ask if we wanted to g o on tour bus meet the Band first met Barry So Nice we went ro den area and were drinking beer and Brad Delp came an ser accross from me He was So Nice and Humble listen to me just talking away didnt have camara but that was a Bucket list item Garry to have been done the way he had by Tom and He just had no bitterness I watched the Lou Gram interview and no doght he was one of the Greatess Rock Singers he just has Such Bitterness and I know he feels cheated but he could no way be as Good as he once was and Kelly current Singer is doing a Great job and Lou had to slamm him be Like Sreve Perry he handed off to Arnell

Scholz was a real jerk to him...Scholz told people to work on projects after he was fighting with Epic records after "Dont Look Back". So Goodreau got Delp and they cut an album w the Rockman amp (the Boston guitar sound..). Scholz felt it was too Boston sounding so he fired Goodreau...a control freak jerk.

Barry’s new label put up a giant billboard claiming that Barry was “The Sound of Boston”. That’s what got him fired, as Barry admitted, to his credit. Tom had to literally invent electronics to get the Boston sound. I would be pissed too.

Boston is one of my all-time favorite bands. It was the first concert I ever saw. Sammy Hagar opened up for them, and he was great too. It is a shame that Tom is such a stubborn and selfish ass. My family is from the same town where Brad grew up in MA. Brad was such a humble and kind soul. The fact that politics has kept them out of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a disgrace. It wouldn't be Boston without Barry, of course. He is also a very awesome and humble musician in his own right.

I would be interested in knowing if Barry has Atlantic Canadian roots as there was a lot of Acadians from Atlantic Canada that had moved to the greater Boston area to work in the building trades. So maybe his parents or family moved there and he was a offspring.
