Well after VH ripped it up, who would stay?!? Awesome that you saw them (VH) that early on! ✌?️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. Their first couple of albums were very good and better than anything they put out with Perry (although Journey with Steve Perry is a guilty pleasure of mine). It's a shame they changed their style to get more sales. Their early stuff was intense: They did try to go back into prog one last time with Perry. It's a shame they just went back to pop rock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecongo Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Love them or hate them, Steve Perry is one of greatest Rock singers of all time. Dudes voice is golden. Mercury, Plant, Rodgers, and Perry those are the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Duck Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Yes, Journey could be a bit cheesy at times but, sometimes I want cheese. I attended one of their concerts back in 1983. Steve Perry's singing was on point and he was backed by a solid, and tight band. Together they put on a damn fine show. What more could I ask?

In all fairness to Journey, they were very popular at the time, it was just a poor choice to have VH open for them. Similar to bands that had the mighty Zep open for them.

reids Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Wow 😳 Two members (drummer Steve Smith and bassist Ross vallory) from Journey have been terminated from the group this week (Tuesday) due. to attempting to take the band name / coup. The three remaining members are seeking replacements touring musicians for this summer as they hit the road w The Pretenders. People are wondering if Deen Castronova (former drummer) will return.

Please tell us how you really feel 😉 I really like their first three albums without Perry, really strong prog rock without becoming too pretentious like Yes or ELP. Judas Priest would be seriously influenced by both early Journey & early Styx believe it or not. Sad Wings of Destiny & Sin After Sin lift heavily from early Journey and the Styx Equinox album. Perry is one of the top 5 rock singers hands down and he is a truly nice guy. I liked their stuff up to Departure and they had some good tunes on Escape, Frontiers, and Raised on Radio but they are the tunes that never got airplay. Mother Father off of Escape is a really good tune and Back Talk off of Frontiers is wacky fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
