Forget the autotune. Today we’re going back to an era when singers could actually sing… unassisted. Just raw, pure, unadulterated talent. And in fact, we’re bringing you what I believe is the alltime greatest male vocal performance on a rock song. It’s tough to pick but I think Brad Delp of Boston on their 70s rock classic More Than A Feeling is the GOAT. Written by Tom Sholz the wizard who produced their Boston selftitled debut album in his basement is a perfect song. Upon release, it was an absolute instant classic. At his peak, Brad Delp was hitting and holding high notes that even the best of the best couldn’t reach, but despite that, he rarely gets the credit he deserves. So to put him back in the spotlight, I’m matching him against some insanely talented rock singers. Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin, Freddie Mercury of Queen, and Steve Perry of Journey…. And I’m stripping three iconic tracks down to the vocals for a headtohead matchup… to prove once and for all who really deserves to be called the GOAT… the greatest onesong vocal performance. Get ready, it’s all coming up… NEXT on the Professor of Rock.

Hey music junkies, Professor of Rock, always here to celebrate the greatest artists and the greatest songs of all time. If you remember when a TV theme song was a minute long instead of 5 seconds like today you’ll dig this channel of deep musical nostalgia. , subscribe below right now. I promise that you are going to love this channel.

I was talking to some friends the other day and we were talking about the greatest onesong vocal performances ever. As they were throwing out some amazing performances All I could do was think of Brad Delp of Boston. How he moved heaven and earth when he was at his peak. Man, Boston, what can you say? So elite. And so far above and beyond your typical rock band. These guys were history in the making. And so was their debut selftitled LP… which is one of the finest AOR albums. One that would go on to sell a staggering 17 million copies. Today we’re giving you a different take on their biggest song. and let’s see if you agree.

The lineup for this 70s epic was founded by multiinstrumentalist savant, songwriter, and sonic inventor Tom Scholz. Surrounding him was the formidable team of guitarist Barry Goudreau, bassist Fran Sheehan, drummer Sib Hashian, and at the mic, the legendary lead vocalist and guitarist Brad Delp. This Boston power rock album is a work of both art and science and an extraordinary achievement of imagination and innovation. A massive triumph, Boston’s debut helped save rock and roll and likewise ushered in a completely new era of rock excellence. And although there are only 8 tracks on this selftitled masterpiece, every one was good enough to be a hit single… That being said, the band’s label Epic chose just three, including the largerthanlife lead single: and one that may be the greatest onesong vocal of all time… More Than a Feeling.

More Than a Feeling was composed by the great Tom Scholz about the indelible impact that an old favorite song can have in your life. And wow did the theme of that old favorite capture the world’s attention. The song's narrator is not happy with the present, waking up with the melancholy of a cloudy day… and longing for a girl from his past…
