THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATKINSON, N.H. -- Brad Delp, the lead singer for the band Boston, was found dead Friday in his home in southern New Hampshire. He was 55. Atkinson police responded to a call for help at 1:20 p.m. and found Delp dead. Police Lt. William Baldwin said in a statement the death was "untimely" and that there was no indication of foul play.
Delp apparently was alone at the time of his death, Baldwin said.
The cause of his death remained under investigation by the Atkinson police and the New Hampshire Medical Examiner's office. Police said an incident report would not be available until Monday.
Delp sang vocals on Boston's 1976 hits "More than a Feeling" and "Longtime." He also sang on Boston's most recent album, "Corporate America," released in 2002.
He joined the band in the early 1970s after meeting Tom Scholz, an MIT student interested in experimental methods of recording music, according to the group's official Web site. The band enjoyed its greatest success and influence during its first decade.
The band's last appearance was in November 2006 at Boston's Symphony Hall.
On Friday night, the Web site was taken down and replaced with the statement: "We just lost the nicest guy in rock and roll."
A call to the Swampscott, Mass., home of Boston guitarist Barry Goudreau was not immediately returned Friday night.

|

Totally ,or i could just be fucking with you |

Damn, that's too bad. I haven't heard a lot of Boston, but I like what I do here, especially that song with the most boss guitar riff ever. Everyone would recognize it if I could hum it, but I don't know how to describe it with just words. It's the one the play on the radio a lot and it recurs throughout the song, sometimes with a sick harmony, and I think at the end the key modulates up a minor 3rd. |
|
ahhh that's hear* not here |
|
This news killed my buzz last night. Boston rules. |
|
That dude should've been me. Then he'd be immortal. |
|
SO sad about this. BOSTON RULES!!! let me take ya home taniiiight!! |
|
This is the saddest thing I've read in a while.
Boston is my favorite classic rock band. |
|
this sucks. i never got to see Boston...
very angry. |
|
Not to go with the flow...but, this is bad news. Those guys had some of the best guitar and vocal harmonies. Shitty. |
|
WOW...I live in atkinson, NH...growing up it was always a rumor that the guy from Boston lived here in town...we knew where his house was and use to always go by wondering what kind of cool rock star stuff was going on in there....looked like a real "normal" house, wasn't all that interesting.
Bad news...feel bad for the family! |
|
Did anyone hear Brad Delp did infact commit suicide or am I just reposting? Carbon monoxide. |
|
thank you. I feel better and worse. I am so behind on the times. |
