Before Steve Perry, right? They were a mix of Jazz fusion and other styles. Totally different than the Perry yrs. Brilliant players. I can't even remember the names......"Next". Maybe "Look into the Future". Were those a couple? God, it's been so long. I think a guy name Robert Fleischman was the original singer. Maybe. If I remember right. Now I'll have to go GOOGLE it.

[@jeffroegner1499]

@@sdc7823 Fleischmann was not in the original journey. He was a guy they were looking at when they found perry. Think the live stuff he did with journey is still on YT. Just before infinity. He wasn't bad.

[@sdc7823]

@@jeffroegner1499 As far as Fleischman it has him listed briefly as a singer before Perry. You said maybe on some live stuff. Whatever it was,.it was brief. Most of those first 3 albums were alot of instrumental stuff. Then Perry came and Infinity was released. I wasn't a huge fan of their music at all, but those albums with Greg Rolie singing some with Perry were best. Infinity, Departure and Evolution albums were really good. Then a live album "Captured" did well. After Rolie left and Jonathon Cain joined, I know they hit the stratosphere,.it just seemed more ballad driven and while I didn't hate it, I just lost interest. No matter what, Schon will always be know as a phenomenal guitar player

[@danielmoore1232]

Raised On Radio is Journey's best album by far. And it's one of my two favorite albums of all time. The other is Boston's album Walk On.

[@stanspb763]

That album was recorded at the Plant Studios in 1985, I was the owner at the time, some great records done in those 3 studios. Neal had this ability to create interesting melodies just noodling around on an acoustic while chatting to someone. I never saw anyone who was so creative unintentionally while thinking of something else. Steve and Neal doing a collaboration would be magical. There was some conflict during the production of that album due to Steve co producing so the long time bass player and Steve Smith the jazz drummer left and suddenly it came together. Some of the best records were done under interpersonal tension. Also done at that studio was much of the Fleetwood Mac Rumours was done when the two couples were breaking up amid lots of screaming, anger and tears.

Whenever the greatest guitar players are talked about no one mentions Neal Schon. I think it's because of his humbleness. When you listen to Journey you can tell that his solos were meant to fit within the song rather than eclipse it. Schon restrains himself for the good of the song. He won't "show off" his skills if it doesn't fit the melody and tone of the song.

Back in the early 90's i saw Van Hagar in Dallas. There was a specific part of the show where Eddie would play a riff and Sammy would sing the riff. If you think what you hear on Sammy's records is amazing. You should have heard what was coming out of this man's lungs when he and Eddie were trading licks...i can't even explain it. only someone else who was there would truly know what i'm talking about. QUITE INCREDIBLE!

Took me forever but then it hit me that they both did that record in 1984, HSAS with the song, "Through The Fire". Jesus! I knew it would come to me eventually what their association was. But yeah... one of MANY of Neal's side projects.

[@dannymartinez9371]

That was a great one time live album. Power trio with a lead singer. Was such a treat because Journey was on hiatus in 84 and that Hagar Schon Aaronson Shrieve allowed Schon to be free from the Journey formula.

Trial by Fire was so underrated, both the entire CD and the single.

There is bad blood still between Neal and Steve. Im guessing from Steve parting ways with Journey in late 90s. I do think it’s time to make peace with each other and let past issues in past and see if they can move forward in some way at the very least a friendship if no music comes of it oh well. I’d like them to at least be friendly and communicate with one another again. He’s waiting on Steve. I feel Neal would have to meet him face to face for coffee or dinner.

I love Neal's guitar lines and grew up thinking he could make me fly(just like EVH)the things coming out of their amps just blew me away(both the slow melodic melodies and the ripping fast links 😎👌 this was such a treat and sammy is a beast, he can rock and bring a party literally anyway 👏

[@RickBeckler]

Stone in Love is one of the smoothest guitar solos ever. His guitar doesn’t over power but flows naturally.

[@vixapphire]

and the bassline as the solo goes on just takes the entire thing to the stratosphere. You know what I'm talkin' about!

[@scottydog62]

@@vixapphire Exactly, Ross Valory a great bass player, He never seemed to get no love in that band but I thought he was great

[@roberto3262]

One of my favorite tunes ever. Great choice dude! 👌

Oh my sweet Jesus, please come into everyone's life. 🙏🙏🙏

[@robertdiehl1281]

This was spectacular…

[@mikewallace119]

2 legends just having fun... That's how it's done kids ... Nothing fake... Just kicking ass... Thanks guys for all the good songs ...

[@intertubicular]

Neal sounds and looks pretty damn good! Sammy isn't too bad either. I enjoyed this. Thank you Sammy and Neal.

[@NatureGirl62]

Playing can’t be faked, but the appearances- Botox, fillers, surgery, hair color. Don’t kid yourself.

[@RU-HDD-4-HVN]

They are both old as can be for real, but that ain't no thang. They still kick it in the butt with their skills!

[@Scott381973]

Great stuff from the Red Rocker! Neal is so likeable and he left the door open for a reunion!

[@TheySaidWhat007]

This show is awesome! Man Sammy that was good! I love Neal wow that dude is absolutely insane on the guitar. Keep it up!

[@lots33ml]

Wonderful two legends....neal or Sammy lol..it's great to see these two still have the passion after all this time. Stay healthy you two the world needs quality men such as yourselfs. Take care god bless both of you!!

[@mattfritch6375]

Loved the HSAS collab you guys did in the 80's. Would love to hear some more so how about it Sammy and Neal?

[@randyvan1520]

Sam and Neal have a great groove and sound great together- always have. Neal plays really "tasteful" leads, fills and shreds that completely compliment the music and always lands on his feet. Just a great era we live in to continue to see and hear this stuff.

[@krishouseholder261]

Love these guys, have always kept the “Rock Bones” in whatever style of music there’re into! Only complaint is…. It ain’t long enough for me, an hour in the least for all these iconic interviews that Sammy’s Rock’n Roadshow does!!😎✌🏼❤️🎸🎸🥁🎹🎼🎧🎯

[@TimsCabana]

I've always loved Neal's playing... it's so good! Great to see those two having fun!

[@justinschultheisz4673]

Friendly reminder that Sammy is in his mid 70s filming this

[@johnkeller5163]

These two were the catalyst for HSAS, the serious rock super group that could not continue beyond 1 record and a couple gigs in California. Unbelievable talent of 4 amazing musicians!!!

[@averyce2]

Damn!! Sammy Hagar and Neal Schon need to make a "Jammin' By The Bay" album with all their SF croonies... PLEASE!!!

[@rhondawilkins_]

Jam Onward, gentlemen! Gen X, 1965! You guys are the rock series of my entire life!

[@danfitzpatrick4112]

Not many people have ever heard of the band HSAS. I wish I still had the album! I bought it back in the early 80's. Look it up! Cool stuff for sure. A great collaboration of the best together!

[@jamesmick8653]

I've still got it on vinyl. You can get a live DVD online.

[@jeffroegner1499]

All of it is on YT too.

[@ThePsychomikey]

I bought the cassette when it first came out, and still have it. If you stream music, Amazon music and Spotify have it.
