Barry Goudreau is the only studio album by American guitarist and former Boston member Barry Goudreau. The album features Goudreau's bandmates with Boston Brad Delp on lead vocals, Sib Hashian on drums and Fran Cosmo (who would later join Boston in 1991), the album displays a sound very similar to that of Boston's first two releases, Boston (1976) and Don't Look Back (1978). However, neither this album nor any of Goudreau's subsequent releases with other acts (Orion the Hunter and RTZ) proved to be as commercially successful as his work with Boston. The album was released in 1980 and is Goudreau's only solo album. The song "Dreams" was released as a single in 1980, nearly cracking the USBillboard Hot 100 (#103, October 1980). It still receives airplay on classic rock radio stations, as does "Mean Woman Blues". Cash Box said of "Dreams" that it is "as melodic and hook-filled as anything by Boston." Record World called it a "powerhouse rocker" and said that "Frenetic guitar leads burn over the bulldozer rhythm."
