In the 70’s Boston’s music underground continued to bubble up. It started with such bands in the late 60’s as the Beacon Street Union and Ultimate Spinach, as well as those who came in the 70’s such as Aerosmith, J. Geils Band, the Cars and the signature classic rock band Boston. In this mix came an artist who arrived in town and became one of the solidifying members of Boston’s music community, James Montgomery.
James was, and remains, a one-man dervish capable of grabbing an audience, controlling it and giving it a night to remember.
