I CAN SEE,
IT TOOK SO LONG
JUST TO REALIZE
I'M MUCH TOO STRONG
NOT TO COMPROMISE
Don't Look Back
is the second
studio album
by American
Rock Band
released in 1978
by Epic Records,
as the band's
last album
on the label.
The album
reached No. 1
in both the US
and Canada,
and No. 9
in the UK.
The title track
helped with the
album's success,
reaching No. 4
in 1978
on the
US Billboard
Hot 100
and remains one
of the band's
biggest hits.
The album sold
over one million copies
in the ten days
following its release
and was certified
7× platinum
by the RIAA
in the US
on
April 11, 1996.
The album's
two-year gap
from its predecessor
marks the
shortest
between two
of the band's
studio albums
to date;
guitarist,
producer
and primary
songwriter
Tom Scholz
claimed that
Epic executives
pushed him
and the band
into releasing
the album before
they felt it was ready.
He also felt that the album
"was ridiculously short".
Their next album,
Third Stage,
was not released for
another eight years,
by which time
the band and record label
had parted ways
and fought
a courtroom battle
that Boston
ultimately won.
Recording
Don't Look Back
was recorded during
1977 and 1978
at Scholz's
Hideaway Studio,
except for the piano on
"A Man I'll Never Be",
which was
recorded by
engineer
Dave Butler
at Northern Studio
in Maynard,
Massachusetts.
