And this CD proves it. When I bought it I was skeptical that it would have a lot of filler as most unreleased cuts really don’t get releases for good reason and then i saw the words “writing demo” and “demo” and my skepticism only grew. Notwithstanding I bought it and it blew me away!!!
Although I am a HUGE Journey fan (when Steve Perry was in it), I was only aware of Steve’s “Street Talk” album and the hits that came from it.
What a discovery as every song is perfect so if you are a fan don’t doubt buying this CD. If you are not a fan, you must be nuts :-) Seriously, this is a great collection and the ony song that I could have done without, “If You Need Me, Call Me”, has great sentimental value for Steve and I won’t spoil why. Rarely have I enjoyed a greatest hits collection as much as I have enjoyed this one! If more releases were of this magnitude, with better pricing and marketing, the music industry would not be in the funk that it is in.
