Title: No Delp, but still vintage Boston
Review: While this album is a slight touch down from the debut or Don't Look Back, this is definitely a must for anyone who is a Boston fan. All of the songs are really great, especially the album opener "I Need Your Love", which has fantastic melodies that soar as high as on any Boston album. Vocalist Fran Cosmo does an outstanding job at the lead vocals, and at times he sounds just like Brad Delp. He brings to the plate many years of excellent vocal experience and is an excellent replacement for Delp. Tom Scholz revamps the earth shattering Boston sound through his guitar and organ notes on songs like the absolutely incredible medley of "Walk On" and the power rocker "Surrender To Me". Also to note, despite the beautifully performed "Livin' For You", this album is all about a return to rockers just like the first two albums. All in all a must have for anyone who loves the Boston sound and harmonies!
