 Simply Awsome collection Mar 19, 2008
Having listened to this cd several times I have concluded it is only bested by 2 others, escape and greatest hits. Having said that one thing that stands out in my mind is, why didnt someone ever do a dvd of concert footage from the frontiers tour? There are some of us out there that regretably never got to see journey in concert and I happen to be one of those that really regrets it. If anyone knows of any video concert footage of this tour I would love to hear from you. But definately get this cd. Sorry for getting off the subject.

 It Could Have Been A 5 Star Album Aug 07, 2006
Journey's "Frontiers" album, released in 1982, stands as one of the band's best. The album spawned four hits ("Separate Ways," "Send Her My Love," "After the Fall", and "Faithfully") and a video game. The synths definitely dominated on this album (who can forget the opening to "Separate Ways?"); yet, despite this, the guitars were more rhythmic and distorted, creating a much harder sound than their previous "Escape" album. Neil Schon's still gets to do his incredible solo work and drummer Steve Smith clearly shows off his talent in "Rubicon" and "Frontiers."
Where the album falls short were the two tracks pulled from it, only to be included on movie soundtracks. These two tracks were "Only the Young," which wound up on the "Vision Quest" soundtrack and peaked at #9 on the Billboard Charts. The other was "Ask the Lonely," a phenomenal tune that was used for the movie "Two of a Kind." It received a fair amount of airplay, but never charted. It is the reviewers opinion that these two should have superceded "Troubled Child" and "Back Talk," neither of which contributed much to the album. Where can you get these tunes? On their "Greatest Hits" album, which also includes 3/4 hits off of "Frontiers."
"Frontiers" is a great album and one that should be included in any Journey fan's collection. Happy buying!
****UPDATE****
The 2006 remaster contains four bonus tracks: "Only the Young," "Ask the Lonely," "Only Solutions," and "Liberty." This is the one to buy!

Super follow up to Escape Jun 15, 2006
What more needs to be said - a super return to the charts with this release after the spectacular Escape album. It opens with the thumping Separate ways and closes with Rubicon. In between we have the beautiful Faithfully and Send her my love. The weakest songs are Edge of the blade and Back talk. Even these are worthwhile. If you are a Journey fan or just like quality AOR then this as well as Escape should be in your collection.

1986 Journey May 30, 2006
This is definitely their best album after Escape, incredible songs, many top 40 hits like, Send Her My Love, Chain Reaction, After the Fall, and of course the 2 top 10 hits of this album Faithfully and Separate Ways (worlds Apart).
The charts don't show always the truth but can be a fact of the quality of this release.
For every Journey fan this release I'm sure that has already purchased.
