Brad Delp, the lead singer of Boston, was found dead at his home in New Hampshire on Friday aged 55.
One of the biggest bands of the 70s, Boston's hits included More Than A Feeling, Peace Of Mind, and Hitch A Ride. Police say that there is no indication that anyone else was involved in his death.
Kurt Cobain famously admitted to copying the More Than A Feeling riff for Smells Like Teen Spirit. At the legendary Reading Festival show in 1992 he actually played a short burst of the Boston track before segueing into the song.
The band's website has been taken down and replaced with the message: "We just lost the nicest guy in rock and roll."

Hey Everybody...
There is a site called "LearntoHack.co.uk" which promises to decrypt Gmail accounts. Okay, Im an idiot who paid $100 to the site via Western Union to a guy in Vietnam named Nguyen Thi Du.
In short, the site is a fraud. Once you pay, they don't answer emails. Do not pay to this fraud site.
Note: The site also has a couple of other names such as Rayahari.net & LearntoHack.co.uk & Learn-to-Hack.com & LearntoHack.biz. All sites are hosted on the same server!
