Michael Gallucci — Sun, 24 Feb 2013 14:52:42 +0000

When Journey started recording their eighth album — ‘Frontiers,’ which turns 30 this month — they were coming off their biggest year ever. Their previous album, 1981â€™s â€˜Escape,â€™ contained their best set of songs, a consistent mix of radio-friendly pop and fist-raising rock that they had been striving for since 1975.

He was born on January 22, 1949, in Hanford, California and of course will be forever remembered as “The Voice” of Journey. The audio of an interview done back in 2009 may not still be “new” but it’s an interesting look at the man who, to such a large degree, defined the band. But what’s [...]

Eduardo Rivadavia — Mon, 21 Jan 2013 04:30:05 +0000

Ever wake up one morning wondering what your name was? Whether this was your beautiful house (David Byrne has, but thatâ€™s another story)? Whether you somehow missed something that was sitting right under your nose? This sense of disorientation probably afflicted many fans of â€˜70s prog rockers Journey when they dropped a needle on the [...]

Andy Chase — Mon, 18 Jun 2012 23:11:04 +0000

A few weeks ago, I posted Journey’s “Separate Ways” and wrote about it possibly being the worst video EVER. Well I think Journey has some competition!

Journey "Separate Ways"- Worst Video Ever? [VIDEO]

Andy Chase — Thu, 07 Jun 2012 19:53:42 +0000

I will start by saying that I love “Separate Ways” by Journey, but everytime I hear the song, I always think of the music video and just how bad the video is. Bad might be a little harsh, so maybe it’s the fact that it has such a creepiness factor to it. Not to mention [...]

Steve Perry Continues His Separate Way

Barbara LaRue — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 18:08:36 +0000

As much as I love Arnel Pineda, who I think does an amazing job of fronting Journey, I have to admit, I’ve always felt sad that Steve Perry left the band, and particularly because he left on bad terms with his bandmates. Still, even Rock Gods are subject to fits of humanness on occasion (sometimes even more [...]
