This is a Journey in two distinct parts, the formative years from 1973-87 and the reunion dating from 1996, joined by the slender thread of guitarist Neal Schon. The younger band, including also Ross Valory, Prairie Prince and George Tickner, added Schon's former Santana band mate Gregg Rolie just in time for first album, "Journey". On a musical meander from jazz-rock to something else, the band welcomed power vocalist Steve Perry and made a stop at hard rock with "Captured." Significant songwriting power was an added benefit when Jonathan Cain replaced Rolie, and "Escape," with Cain onboard, was a huge success that included what's become an all-time favorite, 'Don't Stop Believin'.' By 1986, only Schon, Perry and Cain were Journey-men, and the band broke up for various roads less traveled. In 1996, Schon, Perry, Cain, Valory and early drummer Steve Smith reunited for "Trial By Fire," and the band, with personnel changes that don't include Schon but do include Steve Augeri for Perry, continues up on stage and out on the road, harmonizing for their many friends....more

  • God Bless Bruce Springsteen

    by Jerry GilbertJune 25, 2008Comments (1)

    But right now it's 4:30 in the morning and Springsteen has just completed his second show at Georgetown University. Washington, scenario for The Exorcist. He's been ill—coughing up blood, causing the cancellation of the two preceding gigs. He's still coughing profusely and draws on a bottle of prescribed cough medicine which the doctor provided along with the statutory shot. What was the matter, Bruce? A futile question when you're on the road 90 percent (read more)

  • The Best Books on Music of the Last Six Months

    by C! TeamJune 25, 2008Comments (3)

    There's something about summer reading lists. They almost always contain must-reads, but they are also supposed to contain page-turners... books that, while not being the most challenging literary content you've feasted your eyes on, are highly entertaining without being too heavy on the thinking. It's summer for crissakes, and that means taking a standard break from life. (read more)

  • Rediscovering Rock and Roll, A Journey: Chapter Seven

    by Paul WilliamsJune 18, 2008Comments (2)

    In the future, perhaps, everything will be digital, and we’ll be able to order videos of individual songs, which will be instantly transferred over phone lines to our combination personal computer/music disc/video disc player (and billed to our credit accounts at the same time). There will be a broadcast service, so we can be exposed to new product in the first place, but they’ll figure out some way that you can’t copy (read more)

  • King of Rock 'n' Soul: Solomon Burke Gets Deep

    by Denise SullivanJune 18, 2008Comments (0)

    Most of what I know about Burke's history comes from Guaralnick's interviews with him. But what I felt when I talked to Burke myself was something else entirely—perhaps best described as spiritual refreshment—and it's something that I will carry with me from here. He's a Philadelphia native who loves country music and a former "wonderboy preacher," with 21 children, 89 grandchildren (read more)
