VERY BEST Male Rock Vocalists Of All Time? Pt 10 #shorts

Bradley Edward Delp (June 12, 1951 – March 9, 2007) was an American musician who was the original lead vocalist of the rock band Boston.

Early life
Delp was born in Peabody, Massachusetts, on June 12, 1951. His parents were French-Canadian immigrants. Delp was raised in Danvers, Massachusetts.[1]

Musical career

In 1969, guitarist Barry Goudreau introduced Delp to Tom Scholz, who was looking for a singer to complete some demo recordings. Eventually Scholz formed the short-lived band Mother's Milk (1973–74), which included Delp and Goudreau. After producing a demo, Epic Records signed the act. Mother's Milk was renamed Boston.[citation needed]

The band's debut album, Boston, was released in August 1976. With over 17 million copies sold, the album ranks as one of the best-selling debut albums in U.S. history.[2][3] The band was nominated for the Grammy Award for "Best New Artist".[4][5][6] The album spawned three singles, "More Than a Feeling", "Long Time", and "Peace of Mind", all of which made the national charts.[4][7] The album peaked at number three on the Billboard 200 and remained on the charts for 132 weeks.[8]

Boston was followed by Don't Look Back (1978),[9] and Third Stage (1986).[10] "Amanda", the lead single from Third Stage, went to number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Subsequent singles "We're Ready" and "Can'tcha Say" reached numbers nine and 20, respectively.[4][7]

In 1990, Delp stated that he wanted to concentrate on other projects and might not be available to the band for some time.[11] In 1991, Delp and Goudreau formed a band called RTZ. After Boston released the album Walk On in 1994 with Fran Cosmo on vocals, Delp and Boston reunited later that year for another major tour. Delp continued to record vocals on several albums and projects, including new tracks for Boston's 1997 Greatest Hits compilation and their 2002 release Corporate America.[citation needed]

From the mid-1990s until his death in 2007, Delp played in a side project when he had time off from Boston – a Beatles tribute band called Beatlejuice. During this time, Delp also co-wrote and recorded with former Boston bandmate Barry Goudreau, and in 2003 released the CD Delp and Goudreau.[12][better source needed]

On October 16, 2007, several months after Delp's death, Barry Goudreau released a song with Delp on vocals. Entitled "Rockin Away", the song was co-written by Delp and Goudreau and recorded in mid-2006. It is an autobiography of Delp's musical career.[13] The song reached #20 on the U.S. rock charts in January 2008.[14]

Delp's was known for his "unique and soulful singing and the vocal range of his ‘golden’ voice".[15] ILoveClassicRock.com ranked Delp third on its list of the top 10 male classic rock vocalists; it described Delp's tenor voice as "flawless" and "effortless".
