Boston

I seem to recall that Boston is actually credited on this album as "The Boss Tones", a little play on words.Woodfanatic (talk) 19:02, 16 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Correct. This is mentioned in the Song Information section of the article. While the CD's liner notes dub the group as the "Bos-Tones"; the original 1979 single uses "The Boss-Tones". Regardless, the members of Boston singing back-up are Brad Delp, Sib Hashian and Barry Goudreau. Redrkr) 23:00, 18 July 2009 (EDT)

Vocals Rerecorded

edit

If I am not mistaken it sounds as if ALL the vocals on this Greatest Hits package were rerecorded. Perhaps Hagar, or the Producer, felt they could be a better job than the originals OR perhaps they were unable, for contractual reasons, to release the ORIGINAL tracks as is.

Does anybody have any information regarding this? J Hoskinson —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.41.79.23 (talk) 06:50, 22 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Does not sound that way to me at all. Hagar was still in Van Halen at the time, he did NO promotion for it. It was just another example of his former label repackaging his recordings from his tenure with them. It wouldn't have made much sense. - Redrkr (talk) 21:56, 22 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
