    The entire Infinity album is incredible. Gregg Rolie (keys) and Steve Perry are amazing together. Neal Schon pronounced “Shawn” on guitar. All amazing. Neal Schon is the founding member. Played with Santana at age 15. Totally self-taught. Neal is 68 years old now and still ripping that guitar in Journey today. They are getting ready to celebrate their 50 year as a band. Pretty incredible I’d say. Forever fan here. React to Winds of March from that same Infinity album.

    For those too young to know, one of the greatest moments in rock history occurs during this song at 3:36 when Greg Rolie figuratively passes the torch to Steve Perry. Two seconds before, we were collectively holding our breath...could the new guy sing? Any doubt was completely smashed and destroyed within the next ten seconds - Steve Perry instantly ascended to the greatest male vocalist ever recorded.
    Dream Duo: Greatest male & female vocalists ever recorded, together: Steve Perry & Karen Carpenter, produced by Richard Carpenter. An unusual idea that’s never been considered but I think it would stun. Technically possible as Richard still controls the Carpenters’ catalog.

    I lived in Los Angeles for 30 years, and I worked retail management in a wealthy area, so celebrities would come into the store frequently. One day, I looked over, and there was Steve Perry at the front of the line waiting to be rung up. In my head I was like, "Hey, Steve Perry. Cool! Wow, he's shorter than I thought." I'd say he was/is 5' 7", maybe 5' 8", tops, which I never would have guessed from all the MTV videos I'd seen. And there you have it, another brush with greatness from my early days (this was 20 years ago, roughly).

    Okay, so here's the story. Gregg Rolie was the keyboardist / Organ player and singer for Santana from 1969 til the end of 1971. Guitarist Neal Schon was briefly in Santana as the second Guitarist, Gregg and Neal went to do their own thing in 1973, and Journey released three albums as a four piece, Journey (1975), Look Into The Future (1976) and Next (1977), they were a huge selling live act, but their records didn't sell much, all great albums, but more fusion rock / Prog Rock, their record company, Columbia, told them, "write catchier songs, and get a singer or we are dropping you", Hence Steve Perry was found and joined the band. Gregg continued to sing one to two songs at each Perry album Infinity (1978), Evolution (1979), and Departure (1980), after the live album Captured (1981) was mixed, and before their soundtrack effort Dream After Dream (1980) in Japan was released, Gregg left at the start of 1981, and Jonathan Cain from The Baby's was brought in. Jon helped create their juggernaut "Escape" in 1981, the rest is history.

    Journey was a prog rock jam band with Greg and Neal. The record label was about to drop them because they couldn't get radio airplay. So they brought in Steve to make them more radio friendly. Greg left a couple of years later. He said that he wanted to spend more time at home. There was much speculation that he didn't like being upstaged by Steve. BTW-Neal resisted bringing Steve into the band, too. Said he didn't think he fit in with the band. 🙂

      It should be noted that the first person to leave from this grouping is the drummer, Ansley Dunbar. He'd played with David Bowie and Frank Zappa before joining the embryonic Journey. The year after this, John Barbata, the drummer for Jefferson Starship, was injured in a car crash, and Starship being the kings of the San Francisco music scene, they were able to get Dunbar to "trade up" and join them.
      But I've also heard tell that Ansley thought these songs were a bit too commercial as opposed to "Kohoutek" and "Of A Feeling" and the earlier Journey stuff. I don't know that for sure, though.

    Nice reaction guys, as usual. Y'all's love of music is a joy to watch. You gotta listen to the original album versions. Songs play back to back with a very short break between them. Even shorter than the break in this performance.
    A great radio experience. The DJ's always played both songs . They sort of had to, I guess , with technology being in it's relatively early stages back then. Radio listeners were spoiled . And we loved it .

    The host was Wolfman Jack, a famous DJ with a very distinctive voice and look, as you can see and hear. He was known to all listeners of music in those days.

    Steve Smith is extremely underrated on drums.

      That’s Ainsley Dunbar, not Steve Smith, Smith didn’t join till the next album.

    Greg was the lead singer on their first three albums before Perry was hired. This is Steve's first album with them. It ws also their transition album between their earlier prog fusion sound, into AOR.

    I do love me some Journey so thanks for your reaction guys! If you'd like to hear another great live performance try "Mother, Father" from their Houston 1981 concert.

    Gregg Rolie was a founding member of Journey along with Neal Schon (pronounced Shawn). Greg was a founding member of Santana (vocals on Black Magic Woman, Evil Ways) and Neal was also briefly a Santana bandmate. The young guitar prodigy had a choice between joining Santana or Eric Clapton's band. Later he and Rolie left Santana to form Journey to pursue a more progressive jazz/rock fusion style. Rolie was the original lead vocalist until they decided to add a different vocalist and pursue a bit more commercial radio friendly style. When Robert Fleischmann didn't pan out, their manager, Herbie Herbert, suggested and introduced the band to Steve Perry. Infinity was the first release with Perry in the band and still had songs featuring Rolie on vocals and implementing a hybrid approach. For more of this, check out the track "Just the Same Way." Rolie departed the band due to unhappiness with his lifestyle (excessive drinking, etc.) and wanting to tour less to focus on family, but has continued his music career. He was replaced by Jonathan Cain (the Babys). Rolie later formed another melodic rock band The Storm, with other former Journey bandmates and Perry-esque singer Kevin Chalfant. In 1994 he formed Abraxas Pool, going back to his Latin infused roots, similar to Sanatana. He has performed with the Ringo Starr's All-Star Band and currently helms The Gregg Rolie Band. In 2018-19, he and Neal performed a few dates as Journey Through Time, with Journey drummer Deen Castronova handling the Steve Perry vocal role. You can find videos of these performances on UA-cam. Neal has recently opened the door for Journey's upcoming 50th anniversary for Perry, Rolie and potential certain other former members to return in a limited capacity in order to help celebrate the band's milestone. We shall see on Perry as he hasnt performed live much in years, though Rolie would not surprise me. We can hold out hope for even 1 special performance if only for 1 song as a finale. Thank you for reacting to both songs together as it should be.

      A story from a few years ago pointed out that Rolie didn't sign away his publishing. For that reason, he'll have to be on board if they want to perform most of their early catalog.

    I really appreciate your appreciation for Neil's solo, It just fits and works so well with the song, and takes us powerfully into the big finish. Schon is absolutely one of the best ever. They could all rip fast, ferocious solos, most could even do it well technically. But his guitar work is a cut above in it's tastefulness, and ability to evoke strong emotion.

    This is the very first single of this band in 1978. When I heard it, I was blown away. It is still the very best of there songs, hands down. This version is great. Sounds like the studio version. And yes, definitely meant to be a back-to-back song. That transition is incredible to me.

    This was one of the last performances by drummer Aynsley Dunbar. He saw where it was going, and after the first three albums of ultra instrumentation, he said get me the hell out of here.

    The reason these two are always played together is because, back in the day radio stations had ONE WAY to play the big songs...off the album. The space between the songs was so SLIGHT here, the (probably stoned) DJ could never kill it in time, so they just said "F*&k it, let 'em both play!" True story.

    Gregg Rolie was an original member of Journey! Gregg and Neil were members of Santana! Greg left because he got tired of touring and as far as I know Steve kind of took over! I think Greg felt like the 5th wheel!
