I just attended "Don't Stop Believing" tribute to Journey concert last night.... Fantastic performance!!!! The lead singer sounded so much like Steve Perry.
"I was obsessed with music when I was a kid. I used to sit by the radio, listening to anything " -Steve Perry
This is all about Journey!!! They have always brought the ROCK!!
Formed in the mid-1970's by ex-Santana guitarist Neal Schon, Journey released three moderately successful jazz-influenced rock albums before hiring vocalist Steve Perry in 1977. That personnel change resulted in a musical shift towards a more pop oriented style, as immediately evidenced with Infinity and it's hit songs "Lights"and "Wheel In The Sky." The late '70s saw Journey become one of the most successful recording and touring acts in the U.S! Evolution and Departure were instant classics, each going instantly Platinum and yielding hits like "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'" and "Any Way You Want It."
The second major personnel change occurred with the departure of keyboardist Gregg Rolie. His role was filled by ex-Babys member Jonathan Cain and the group recorded it's classic Escape album, which has sold over 9 million copies. The '80s were dominated by the Journey albums Frontiers, Raised On Radio and the best-selling Greatest Hits. 1996 saw a reunion of the Escape lineup and the Grammy-nominated Trial By Fire.
