ABOUT THE RECORD Don't Look Back, by American rock band Boston, featured the title track single which is one of the band's biggest hits, reaching #4 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album itself sold over four million copies in the first month of its release, and has been certified 7x platinum. Two other singles were featured in Don't Look Back: A Man I'll Never Be (#31) and Feelin' Satisfied (#46). This album also marked the beginning of the band's legal fight with its record label, Epic Records. Tom Scholz has been on record stating that executives at Epic pushed him and the band into releasing the album before they felt it was ready. He said of Don't Look Back that "it needed another song." Their next album, Third Stage, was not released for another eight years, by which time the band and record label had parted ways and were fighting a courtroom battle that Boston ultimately won. When Don't Look Back was originally to be titled Arrival, but Boston members discovered that ABBA had already released an album by that name, so Don't Look Back was chosen instead. It has been posited that the cover art for this album inspired the box art on the Atari 2600 release of the video game Space Invaders. Scholz has claimed in many interviews that he listens to The Journey before he goes to bed each night.
