Reissue Roundup: Journey

InfinityI’ve got a tower of reissues on my desk that’s starting to teeter back and forth so I figured I better start plowing through ‘em before someone shouts, “Jenga!” and I’ve got a real mess on my hands.

On August 1st, Sony Legacy reissued not one, but five Journey albums: Infinity [1978], Evolution [1979], Departure [1980], Escape [1981], and Greatest Hits [1988]. Each disc comes lovingly packaged with a 16-page booklet of tour dates, memorabilia, and never-before-seen photos of the band.

Neil SchonNever-before-seen photos like this.

Okay, I’ve seen that photo before, but I’ve had the pleasure to crank both Infinity and Greatest Hits in my shitbox on wheels over the past few months, and I’ve gotta say, I wish I had Neil Schon’s hair.

Say what you will about Journey but you know that when push comes to shove at the next karaoke bar you find yourself in and someone has just bought you another shot of Goldschlager, you lean on Don’t Stop Believin’ like a walker with balding tennis balls.

Buy some Journey at Amazon.
