BOSTON – Live In The USA 1987 [Alive The Live Japan release only] (2022) HQ *Exclusive*
BOSTON‘s mastermind Tom Scholz is known for his obsession of perfectionism, with the band albums taking a lot of time to be finished. It has been said he has recorded a single note dozens of times before getting satisfied. Well, seems Sholz is a perfectionist on stage too, and he personally supervised everyting before each show.
And you can tell that as the sound quality of this “Live In The USA 1987” – released by the stupendous Japanese specialized label “Alive The Live” – is simply awesome.
This impressive Boston show was captured 1987, Centrum, Worcester, MA, while the band presented the studio album ‘Third Stage’. This release features the complete show – including the 3 (!) encores – over two CD’s.
Following a six-year hiatus, fraught with legal battles with both management and their record company, Boston fans finally had reason to celebrate in September of 1986, when the group finally issued their long awaited third album.
Titled Third Stage, this LP would soon top the charts and become the first album in CD format ever to be certified gold.
The following year Boston would hit the road, selling out arenas across North America. Performing material from all three of their albums, including a complete performance of the Third Stage album in it’s entirety, this tour was a dream come true for Boston fans.
The most legendary stand of this tour occurred at the tail end of the first leg, when Boston embarked on a monumental 10 night stand at the 12,000 seater Centrum in Worcester, Massachusetts, performing before highly receptive home state audiences.
Opening and closing with plenty of classic material from their first two albums and featuring a complete live performance of the Third Stage album sandwiched in between, here is the 4th night of that remarkable 10 night stand, presented in it’s entirety.
