Boston

Boston is an American band founded by Tom Scholz in 1976. Tom formed the band as kind of his own little side project. Ironically, he was an engineering student at MIT who had no interest in Rock n Roll, but took piano lessons as a child and later became interested in recording engineering. 
Tom has stated that he wrote a few songs, and then put together a band to play them. He then recorded Boston's legendary debut in his home studio. So in a sense, Boston isn't so much a band as they are a side project of an MIT graduate who just so happened to be an amazing guitar/organ player who had an interest in studio recording.
Boston is a band that takes for fucking ever to release new material. Their first album was made in 1976, their second was in 1978, but their next album wasn't put out until 1986 due to the fact the band were caught up in a lawsuit. They worked on the album for exactly 6 years. 
Their next album, Walk On, was released in 1994, and took 3 years to make between 1990 and 1993. Their next album took 5 years between 1998 and 2002, and their most recent album took 10 years between 2003 and 2013.
