 Absolutely Journey's Best Sep 28, 2009
This album is just fantastic, there are no "filler tracks" that you came to expect with later Journey albums(Before they were Corporate gunslingers they were a real band). This is the last album before Steve Perry came and listening to Greg Rollie's vocals is an extreme treat, if you have never heard this album you don't know Journey.
Are you kiddin' me, Aug 27, 2009
This album was first introduced to me by an NPR station in Memphis,TN 1975 when I was in the Navy. I was completely blown away. Then I found out that Neal Schon was the guitarist. Being a guitar freak I knew him from Santana and loved his playing on the third album.
The title song is worth the price of admission alone. Not then or since, have I heard more soulful and electifying guitar in any one song. Just awe inspiring and beautiful.
Guitar solos are all over this record. If great guitar playing is what you like, then this is the album for you. It is of the hook.
JOURNEY: BACK TO THE FUTURE Jul 09, 2009
JOURNEY fans: (pre-PERRY) checkout [...] click on concerts you'll find old concerts from the Winterland/Filmore venues it's really cool to find these gems still out there! O.K. I've been looking for these cd's of JOURNEY's first 3 recordings, finally they released them, my old LP records were wore out! I was fortunate to see JOURNEY in concert pre -Perry about 1977 it was great! haven't forgot it, I saw ELP= emerson lake and palmer a few months later and they did a song from Journey's album Look Into The Future title song, I was shocked that ELP at there height in the 70's would do other bands material but it was a good choice because they did the song justice, I've been following Journey ever since, even though it's become a sugar coated corporate rock machine you know! the elevator/shopping mall background music. again I was fortunate to catch a show at the House of Blues in L.A. mid 90's with GREG ROLIE and NEAL SCOHN and the original members of SANTANA"S band they had called themselves ABRAXAS awesome early SANTANA material. i'm gonna check out the latest incarnation of Journey in Austin TX. maybe they'll reach way back into the archives???
Look Into The Future - Classic Journey May 28, 2009
Journey's second album is a much more rock oriented affair, consisting of mostly powerful rockers with the sophisticated edge of true musicians. Greg Rollie's vocals are still very much in the realm of early Santana, very hypnotic while his keyboard playing has grown by leaps and bounds. Neal Schon's guitar playing has more bite, but his runs are more fulfilling. I can't say enough Aynsley Dunbar's incredible drumming on all three of the early Journey albums, but this one in particular contains some of his most ferocious battery. Ross Vallery holds the fort with his strong, confident bass playing. Songs like "Look Into The Future" and the one-two punch of "Midnight Dreamer" and "I'm Gonna Leave You" take the listener through several phases before relenting, which is something they lost when Steve perry joined. This is progressive rock at its finest and should be heard by a wider audience.
Look into the Future Aug 18, 2008
This would be Journey's last album before Steve Perry came aboard.Not to put Steve Perry down but I liked Journey better without him.
