No click tracks in their ears or auto-tune in 1981. This is what you call true musical talent, practice and hard work. You either had it or you don't get hired in a band.

[@tinagibbs4559]

Autotune did not exist back then. Autotune came in the late 90's.

[@Sighlense]

That face people make when Perry reaches for heaven, it never gets old.

[@ronbishop3289]

There was no auto tune back at that time...Journey was just simply that good! Let me rephrase that...Journey was just simply that awesome! Pure talent!

[@steverey8362]

That's right, the most they had was some beastly EQs, audio engineers back then focused primarily on acoustics VS today's Mix Master Mike type audio engineers.

[@rogerwatson7514]

They had nothing in their ears, and there wasn’t ANY auto tune AT ALL back then. This was real rock n roll. Pure God gifted talent. When Steve recorded this for the album in the studio, he did it in ONE take.

[@melodyszadkowski5256]

No click tracks, no autotune, no auto anything. Just pure talent.

[@user-qr8ki8ue4i]

Oh, honey. No click tracks or autotune back in our day. The only only way bands made legendary status back then was by hard-earned musical proficiency.

[@wendyhowe2178]

No auto tune in 1981. Steve Perry was a drummer before he was a singer.

[@newfiemom8696]

Oh ya…, those last notes, his voice was one of the instruments! I LOVE seeing people’s reaction when they realize that’s him singing there at the end.

[@melodyszadkowski5256]

The piano solo at the end was specifically to give Steve the chance to catch his breath 😁👍

[@tracyabbott3373]

I saw them live several times in the 80’s!!!! Loved them but took them for granted!!!! Had no idea they would be so relevant in 2024!

[@pennyrogers629]

No autotune no click tracks back then at all! Pure raw God given talent!!

[@melodyszadkowski5256]

No autotune, no ear gizmos. Not in 1981. And yeah, Steve Smith still teaches drumming. Brilliant.

[@coachbigdawg41]

Due journey Still they ride live in Tokyo 1983 Fire 🔥 😊

[@auntvesuvi3872]

Thank you, Tyler! 🎹🎸🎤 The word you were grasping for is vibrato.

[@ColmSutton-we6yn]

No son no click 2:59 tracks or auto tune then which only proves how good the are.

[@rebelwithacause7334]

No, auto-tune did not exist then. By the way, my two brothers' and one cousin of mine with 2 friends have a band and they have been playing since 15-17 and they are still recording in their 60's! And they harmonize beautifully without auto-tune. You might want to re-listen to the song's words as they are about Neil Schon's real life family; but Steve Perry and Jonathan Cain also helped write it! It would be good for families to hear today and remember, "God did not mean it this way...to end in divorce or separation." Oh, and I was blessed to see Journey twice in two years at McNichol's Arena in Denver, it was by the old Mile High Stadium; that is now been demolished. But they sang so great in person, crazy good.

[@luisalbertocalla6649]

Please! 🙏 More Journey live in Houston 1981!

[@user-js4go9hv3i]

I was blessed enough to see this Journey lineup during the Escape tour. Absolutely mesmerizing. They had such a cohesiveness that I have never seen before or since. It was like they had telepathy amongst each other, because Steve Perry would sometimes do some improvisation from the album recordings and the band never missed a beat. Nobody even comes close to their musicianship these days. I am still a huge fan to this dayeven after 45 years! By the way there was no auto-tune or ear techs in 1981. Pure genius!

[@mvk3717]

I was at this concert. It was phenomenal. I’ll never forget it.

[@crichtonjohn3393]

Great analysis Tyler. if you've never heard Open Arms, it's another killer ballad with Steve's signature soaring vocals. We know you have a soft spot for romantic love songs.

[@joekoehn98]

This is 1981, didn't use click tracks live. No ear monitors and no auto tune. This is completely live

[@rokmin8550]

good reaction and good luck with your music! The band is great and Steve Perry is surely one of a kind, my opinion the best of all time.

[@newfiemom8696]

Jon Bon Jovi nicknamed Steve Perry “The Voice” for a reason. Also, during an interview with Steve he talks about how much his parents divorce is still hard in him to this day.

[@popdefender460]

Thanks for taking a ride through the Journey universe! From the soaring vocals to the drum setup analysis, I felt like I was on a musical safari with you. There are at least 10 iconic, cant miss Journey songs that should be on everyone's playlist. Lovin', Touchin" Squeezin, is probably the most fun to me. Steve Perry's unbothered musical genius is a mood we all aspire to achieve. Looking forward to your future music experiments. Keep rocking and rolling like Journey's drummer's sweatband!" 🤘🎸

[@lordbrewer812]

Auto tune was introduced in 97

[@rebeccamassey7545]

This whole concert is fire.

[@joelefebvre740]

I got to see Journey for the Frontiers tour

[@kevinmkraft]

Journey! Oh, I could recommend a lot of underrated songs they did. Check out "Something to Hide" off INFINITY!

[@kimberlyroets9334]

I was smiling when you were talking about the drum kit and thinking he needs to see Neil Peart's kit, drummer from Rush. Have a listen to his drum solo, live in Frankfurt, I believe in 2004.

[@pegajense]

The Goat check out Journey Wheel in the Sky live in Osaka for some more vocal acrobatics ❤❤❤❤

[@AlienCatTweets]

The closest thing to AT or InEars in the 80's was: Is it live or is it Memorex? And dude, that guitarist is Neal Schon. He started with Santana while he was still a MINOR. A child prodigy of insane talent, but his son is even BETTER than his dad now. I worked in the industry back in the day and you needed REAL talent to get and keep a music contract, now singers rely on AutoTune to make them sound good every night.

[@hunteranime4793]

It's called vibrato, stronger and richer tone kind of tremble sound

[@AI_Surfer]

This song would have been right at home on Journey's 'Infinity' album from 1978.

[@TheColdrush22]

7:13 vibrato

[@melodyszadkowski5256]

More Journey please

[@jamesgmusic]

No click tracks, no autotune. All that crap came much later. Musicians, either could do it or didn't play. No In ears, it was all stage monitors then. Musicians listened to each other, blended .

[@brigittereimprecht8334]

For me, Journey were always better live and in this formation than anything in the studio. It's not the same without Steve. Check out more, the whole Houston concert was awesome. But also definitely worth seeing are "Lights & Stay Awhile" (Live in Osaka 1980), When you love a women, Girl can't help you and many, many more. Steve's voice is just incredible, just that voice

[@busybee16803]

I always thought he was sort of going through the scales when he fluttered his fingers.

[@msbolan]

No autotune in the '80's. That was a late '90's thing to correct lack of talent.

[@roberthampton6757]

U should see Neil phearts drum kit from Rush has a 44 piece set!

[@carolinebizzell5974]

Vibrato

[@carolinebizzell5974]

And glissando

[@newfiemom8696]

Yes it’s darker, listen to the lyrics. It’s about divorce

[@melodyszadkowski5256]

Lord help this broken home... Neil and Steve Perry both came from broken homes. Breaks your heart.

[@jimaccosted9328]

Dude, they don't have in ear monitors! The use floor wedge monitors. No AutoTune Existed then!!! You are use to the dumbed down "musicians" of today! These guys are world class! This level of musicianship does not exist today BECAUSE of click, Autotune and ProTools!!! Enjoy learning

[@newfiemom8696]

While this is fabulous… in fact a Steve being in the center and the band all around him…. Sounds like an orchestra. Best harmonies for 3-4 people ever was The BeeGees!

[@Donna185]

Please don't stop or talk over Steve Perry vocals. 😊

[@Yoonjiholic]

CAN YOU PLS REACT TO NAMJOON'S NEW SONG 'COME BACK TO ME', IT'S ALREADY OUT, THANKU ❤

[@WyattAkins]

no click tracks / IEMs here. fyi. basing solely off stage wedges. just like elton used until his last gig a few years back.
