Both are on my Solo karaoke playlist for singing in the car ❤️ I LOVED doing Foreplay/Long Time in Rock Band with friends!

Stairway to heaven is way overplayed. If I never hear it again I'm OK with that

stephentiano.bsky.social•41 days ago

Boston, Massachusetts is one of my favorite towns. Boston the band is a punchline.

every DIY artist, whether they know it or not, owes a debt of gratitude to Tom Scholz. one of the best to ever do it.

Roundabout by Yes?

Long time ago I was at a Hershey Bears game and the local classic rock station had an ad in the men's room that said flush if you hate stairway

athensgrease.bsky.social•41 days ago

this also belongs in the conversation for Best Debut Album Ever imo. just one heater after another

ihavethatonvinyl.com•41 days ago

incredible debut on par with the cars

athensgrease.bsky.social•41 days ago

I immediately thought of them, Led Zeppelin, Pearl Jam, the Strokes, Guns n’ Roses. just coming out firing on all cylinders from the jump

ihavethatonvinyl.com•41 days ago

weezer, van halen, madonna, rem

athensgrease.bsky.social•41 days ago

whew damn, yes

freshfindspod.bsky.social•41 days ago

That first Boston album is front to back heaters!

cirquedusynth.bsky.social•40 days ago

It’s a damn good choice, and some of the shreddiest organ playing since Keith Emerson’s solo in Karn Evil 9 1st Impression Part 2

btothed.bsky.social•41 days ago

One of my all time favorites. Though “Let Me Take You Home Tonight” is absolutely beautiful and amazing in a completely different way too.

rubenthecuban.bsky.social•41 days ago

It's good

cowbellum.bsky.social•41 days ago

numbers 1 and 2 of all time

sunnysidedahlias.bsky.social•41 days ago

You are so absolutely correct. Best ever 👍

docpsych.bsky.social•41 days ago

Good song.

brnqqsusie.bsky.social•40 days ago

Love, love, love Boston! (Incidentally, I also absolutely love Zeppelin, but *hate* Stairway to Heaven!) Give me Good Times, Bad Times, Bad Dog, or Four Sticks any day.

brnqqsusie.bsky.social•40 days ago

Why did this get changed to Bad Dog??? Ugh

mkerste.bsky.social•41 days ago

I just looked at a transcription of the organ/piano part for the first time because a dude asked me to play in a classic rock band (had to say no, already in 3 others, but I do want to learn it anyway).

poekwinsings.bsky.social•41 days ago

Never owned Stairway to wherever but continue to play Boston, they rock on…

cowpals.bsky.social•41 days ago

not my first but def top 3. I think Turn the Page is first.

noongoon.bsky.social•41 days ago

Whenever this album comes up I end up revisiting it and I’m still amazed at how he recorded it and how when he didn’t get the sound he wanted he just invented his own pedal.

billthecat71.bsky.social•41 days ago

Stairway to Heaven is such a great song, but I have to take long breaks between listens, because I have heard it way too many times.

shadowselfca.bsky.social•41 days ago

I did not know until recently that it was Scholz playing the organ part in Foreplay, holy smokes.

Now let loose with the organ/foreplay jokes.
