  • Years Active: 1960s-present
  • Member of: Orion the Hunter
  • Genre: Rock & Alternative

Barry Goudreau played guitar on the first two stratospherically successful Boston records. As Boston impatiently waited for mastermind Tom Scholz to complete the third, Goudreau worked with other limbo members on Barry Goudreau in 1980. A decent professional rock work, Barry Goudreau yielded the radio piece "Dreams." Goudreau then left Boston and formed Orion the Hunter with Fran Cosmo, who sang on the solo slab. Another adroit offering, Orion the Hunter also won airplay with "So You Ran." Goudreau spent the ensuing years in legal proceedings with Scholz. He next surfaced with Boston vocalist Brad Delp in RTZ, a pleasant but faceless affair. ~ Doug Stone, Rovi
