When Boston leader Tom Scholz was asked by Martin Popoff from BraveWords recently about whether a particular era from the past resonates within the grooves of Life, Love & Hope, he responded:
“It’s not inspired by anything that has come before it. You know, me working the way I like to work, and have kind of always worked except for that record we just spoke about (laughs)... of course I still have and use all the same old equipment. I haven’t changed that much. I still have an appreciation for music and my roots are obviously still the same, which is classical by nature. So it was… I won’t say I was surprised when some people said that there’s a lot of the album that sounds like the older Boston albums, but it wasn’t the plan. It’s just, that’s the way it worked out. You know what? When I go into the studio, I don’t put the first Boston album on and say okay, I gotta write songs and arrange things and get sounds, good sound just like this. I don’t do that.”Read the entire feature here.
