| Boston – Rock And Roll Band Lyrics | 6 years ago |
|
It's well-known that this song is based on a story the band's original drummer, Jim Masdea, told to Tom Scholz. (The record company made Scholz replace Masdea with Sib Hashian.) Tom Scholz played (mostly keyboards) with a few other bands, and tried to start one himself. However, the only time BOSTON played live prior to opening for Black Sabbath on tour was for a record-company showcase. That was done as a demand by Epic records, who wanted to make sure the band wasn't just a "mad genius" working alone in his basement (which it was). |
