Boston/Early Years Demos 1973-1976

It has been decided that the group will perform in Japan for the first time in 35 years in 2014, and the public atmosphere in Boston is being reevaluated. This work is the title that includes the early demo sound source of Boston. In addition to the sound source that first appeared in the old analog boot “We Found it in the Trashcan, Honest!”, it includes all the sound sources called the so-called MOTHER’S MILK demo. Furthermore, with the addition of rare live tracks from the same period and other versions, it has become an indispensable title as a Boston collector’s item. All of the recordings were recorded long before they were released, and the titles of some have not yet been decided. It is recorded with wonderful high sound quality. In addition, previous releases with similar content did not include the “Foreplay” demo, but this work includes that as well, and includes all remaining sound sources. Not only the content but also the sound quality surpasses previous titles, and the clearness unique to a soundboard and the thick sound with solid mid-bass are completely different from the conventional light sound quality. You can immediately feel the difference just by listening to the early version of “Don’t Be Afraid” titled “Love” at the beginning. Bonus tracks include a 45 RPM version of “Peace Of MInd” with different vocals, another version of “Foreplay – Long Time” that was only included on the pre-release promo album “It’s A Knockout”, and a filler from the 1976 tour. Live takes of three songs from the Delphia performance are recorded on the soundboard. MOTHRE’S MILK DEMOS 1973 – 1976 01. Love early version of Don’t Be Afraid 02.
