People treat Tom Scholz like he is some alien from a distant planet, but he is actually VERY much "down to earth". He makes even the most complex aspects of his reasoning and logic simple enough for the average person to understand

I saw them about 6 or seven times the first time was in 75 the last time was in 2000 or 2001 still despite all the years and Maurice White's illness there was no difference in the performance one of the two or three best shows I've ever seen

Wow a great performance and I am a prog rock old school heavy metal guy. Also I am listening to Phillip bailey's falsetto and if you listen closely his falsetto is a bit like a female opera type voice. Also for you Phillip Bailey fans you may want to listen to Rob Halford from judas priest who had a 4 octave range but Rob Halford does not use falsetto. And listen to on KZbin the judas priest song from thier first album rocka Rolla from 1974 called run of the mill where Rob Halford hit the highest note probably recorded not using any falsetto either with vocals hitting Phillip bailey's vocal sounds on fantasy. Also for you guys going whoa they played faster than the records things like that were very common in the hard rock heavy metal scene live judas priest would play especialky the song victim of changes much faster than the record because their then drummer les banks was a fusion jazz trained drummer and I bringing it up because in many other places in the world like Europe And Japan they are much more open minded then here and like all kinds of music but to understand the stuff earth wind and fire was doing or bands like Kool and the gang or early comodores or parliament funkadelic you have to understand the world of fusion jazz which had a huge influence on the prog rock scene in Europe along with classical music. And I am bringing it up bevause it seems like every genre of music that's groundbreaking has to get ruined like what happened to fusion jazz and funk gets turned into disco which all sounds kind of the same without any variation or what happened to metal In the 1980s with hair bands. Or like now with country and rap hip hop. Or listening to today's pop garbage with auto tuned voices that sound so fake for which I can't stand or the garbage fed on the radio with pop and the misuse of all electronic instruments just so you don't have to pay real musicians to play the instruments and the songs sound the same or like American idol garbage. and that's something that still bugs me about the r and b scene even back to the early days because there is a huge diference in having a band where you write your own songs and actaully perform your own songs with instruments whether it's with keyboards or things like keyboards guitars and real drums. And bass guitars. VS just having guys up on stage dancing around just singing without writing any of the songs while your producer or record label makes all the money or crappy manager and at least with Maurice white and ewf they wrote their own songs and the band members in the 1970s played their own instruments in the studio and even as the 1980s came and they were using samplers and even the early 1990 s at least it was still written by Maurice white and played and programmed by the band members themselves. And by the way for you guys that think I oppose electronic instruments like synths and electronic programed drums you could not be more wrong the gap band did it well Depeche mode did it well The pet shop boys new order did it well too and so did countless others. And finally I will say this we need to appreciative of good music period and by the way in Europe there are countless great bands of young guys that actaully appreciate good music and can sing properly play great guitar bass drums and keyboards ect. It might not sound like what earth wind and fire did but it's good even iron maiden is good with Steve Harris the bass players use of flat wound bass, strings on a p bass just like the motown session cats used in the 1960s and Bruce's powerful tenor style operatic at times tenor vocals there was also the late ronnie James, dio who had a great voice and a magical way of telling stories too who lost his battle with liver cancer and with his early band elf did a lot of bluesy stuff but originally was called ronie and the prophets that came from the days of dio wop just like Maurice white did. Anyway I say this because that's the power of music and we in America need to be more open minded when it comes to music and need just see good music or what we think is good music through are little Buble. Anyway cheers and again a great performance from ewf during Maurice whites last year as a live performer as his parkinsens began to rob him of the ability to perform live

I only wish I could have seen him in concert, just love his Middle Man album especially Jo Jo, Simone, Breakdown Dead Ahead - and that cover so sassy!

Great interview with Tom Scholz!!! Ive never seen an interview with him like this before. I still like to start my day with a familiar song…. I was 12 when this came out. Hard to believe Im 60 now and Boston is as fresh now as when I first heard them a lifetime ago. Ive passed it on to my daughter. She’s 23, living in LA and a stylist in the music business. Just timeless music……

So much love for this era this band and their music. Forever part of my teenage high school college and young adult memories! Head to the Sky High school senior class of 75 class song. Crossed the burning sands into the brotherhood of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity November Fall of 1976 EWF album jammed in the background as we were ‘made’ and brought into the brotherhood. Part of my life, my memories forever!!
