Le nouveau Boston avec Brad Delp


boston

Le groupe Boston a enfin confirmé une date de sortie pour cet album attendu depuis longtemps. ''Life, Love And Hope'', sixième album studio, paraitra le 3 décembre. Mais, contrairement à ce qui avait été évoqué, il n’y aura pas la voix enregistrée du chanteur Brad Delp, qui s’est suicidé en 2007.
Les autres voix sont assurées par David Victor (membre du groupe depuis 2012, après avoir chanté dans un groupe de tribute à Boston), Kimberley Dahme (qui a rejoint Boston en 2001), Tommy DeCarlo (chanteur officiel actuel) et Tom Scholz lui-même. Scholz qui vient de perdre son procès contre le quotidien the Boston Herald, qui l’accusait de blâmer Brad Delp pour son suicide.

La voix de Brad Delp sera sur les titres: ''Didn’t Mean To Fall In Love'', ''Sail Away'' et ''Someone 2.0''.

Voici un tracklisting complet avec les notes de Tom Scholz lui-même:

1. Heaven on Earth
2. Didn’t Mean To Fall In Love
3. Last Day Of School
4. Sail Away
5. Life, Love & Hope
6. If You Were In Love
7. Someday
8. Love Got Away

10. You Gave Up On Love (2.0)
