Boston singer Brad Delp, whose voice was heard on such '70s rock hits as "More Than A Feeling" and "Peace of Mind," was found dead on Friday afternoon at his home in Atkinson, New Hampshire; he was 55. Delp was apparently alone at the time of death, and there was no indication of foul play, Lt William Baldwin said in a news release. The cause of death is yet to be determined by the medical examiner. Boston's first album, 1976's Boston, remains the biggest debut in the history of recorded music, selling over 17 million copies.Delp: "the nicest guy in rock and roll."The band's website has been replaced by a single page with a message that reads: "We just lost the nicest guy in rock and roll."For more info:http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/6437059.stmhttp://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/10/arts/music/10cnd-delp.html
