August 25, 1976 – Boston released their self-titled debut album on Epic Records

The album was certified gold two months after its release, and sold another 500,000 copies within 30 days, going platinum for the first time in November 1976. By January 1977, the debut disc sold two million copies, making it one of the fastest selling debut albums in rock history. “More Than a Feeling” became a hit single on both AM Top 40 stations (with its second verse deleted for time constraints), and on FM “AOR” stations (with the second verse left intact) “I was at Polaroid when I first heard ‘More Than A Feeling’ on the radio,” said Scholz. “I was listening to somebody else’s radio. The first week the album came out, it did better than I expected.” Epic Records was pleased with their new acquisition
