Yes “Purple Rain” same notes the song might not have happened without a little cooperation from the members of Journey. Prince was concerned and notified Journey.... I don’t want you to sue me.” but After listening, Cain says, “I thought it was an amazing tune, and I told him, ‘Man, I’m just super-flattered that you even called. It shows you’re that classy of a guy. Good luck with the song. I know it’s gonna be a hit.’

“Faithfully” was a huge hit for them. Journey started as a project offshoot with two members from Santana. The guitar gunslinger from San Fran hired at age 15, Neal Schon, (played Woodstock with Carlos) along with Hammond Organ, Piano and first vocalist Greg Rollie along with original drummer Ansley Dunbar recorded a couple of records that were mostly instrumental. Then here’s the second iteration of the group adding Steve Perry on vocals and Steve Smith on drums. There’s a great duet with Greg and Steve, called “Just The Way You Love Me,” before Greg left Journey (in good hands btw), replaced by former Baby’s pianist/songwriter Johnathan Cain. Steve Perrys’ vocal high wire act with Neal’s guitar shredding has created quite a healthy catalog. The “Frontiers” album has some heavier slammin tunes. Like Zeppelin, you could do their discography and not be disappointed at all. Try the Official videos of “When You Love A Woman,” (made to look like an in studio performance) and Official concert and album version of “Girl Can’t Help It.” The harmony’s are insane!

I saw Journey and what an INCREDIBLE show! Steve was a ball of fire running up and down ramps all night. Not to mention his VOICE .. Side note...my first husband was luring me from my first love (rock & roll) into country. ( Gotta admit Emmylou Harris sings like an angel) but the first time I heard Steve Perry's voice, that DID IT for me. I was like, " Who IS that guy?????" Haven't looked back. Took a few detours...RIP, Jimmy Buffett...Jackson Browne. ( He is still living!) I can't think of all the good ones. Even love me some bluegrass. But my heart still belongs to R&R.

Hard to believe this beautiful song is 40 years old this year! This song came out before Purple Rain. In fact, Prince contacted Journey because he was worried Purple Rain sounded too much like Faithfully. Jon Cain keyboards for Journey wished him well with the song Purple Rain. Saw Journey live in 1983. I remember Steve Perry singing this song. He sounded even better live. Journey On.
