I too am 68 ... I was in an Attack Squadron based out of NAS Lemoore, CA ... I believe it was '88/89 ... we held a squadron function at Rubi Calva's a restaurant just outside Hanford, CA ... When we arrived, I was astounded to see a person sitting at the bar who looked exactly like Steve Perry. Long story short ... it was him ... he bought us a round. We invited him in ... he graciously refused. He is a saint! He had returned to his home to look after his Mother ... a native Lemoore-on. Steve ... I was once asked if I would be caught dead listening to Journey while driving my Corvette? Hell yea! Journey rules! Biden can suck it!

I agree 100 percent , Perry’s voice absolutely soars! I’d put Steve Perry in a category with a prime Robert Plant, Freddie Mercury, Paul Rodgers, and a few others. It seems unlike many others he took care of his voice, didn’t smoke or use drugs. His live performances were very consistent.

@@bradsquires5971 Spot on except for the drugs part. Back in the 70's and 80's. the boys in the band were fond of their blow until the studio they were using was raided by the police back in the 80's. None of the band members were in the studio at the time of the raid, but they were recording an album there. You are correct, however. Perry did take good care of his voice and used drugs the least.

I agree..he is a great bass player..and wrote several.of the songs on the first album. Google the Winterland videos and watch/listen to him on the one called "unnamed instrumental"..it is actually one of their early unreleased songs called charge of the light brigade. Valory, Schon, and Dunbar (before Steve Smith) are incredible. Schon is in the stratosphere on it. Dunbar was every bit the drummer that Smith is.

[@sulatlalaki]

Back in the 80s when all of these Metal Head guitarists were getting involved in Metal Aid they gathered together guys like George Lynch from Dokken and some of those other so-called "rock guitarists trading riffs. When Neil Schon stepped up all of their jaws dropped as he proceeded to shred and annihilate every one of them with his incredible runs and churning riffs. He blew every one of them away like you wouldn't believe. He is truly one of the very top guitarists and I would not say he's underrated except maybe by people who just don't know!

The intro drum parts to this song keep Steve pretty busy and they are playing this song quite a bit faster than it was recorded and Steve Smith does not miss a beat and makes it look easy-as he always did.

[@stephenslusser2895]

Yes, very fast cadence. I did not know this drummer by name but, I was really impressed by his performance. Thanks for the name.

[@jasperjenkins7729]

@@stephenslusser2895 Steve Smith. A True drum god. He's the new Buddy Rich. HIGHLY respected in the drum world. Hard to believe but he is ALWAYS getting better.

[@venomagent76]

Steve Smith has always been a badass!

[@jeffwarren4938]

@@jasperjenkins7729 Yes, Steve Smith is to drum world, that Neal is to the Guitar world. Smith is a world class drummer, and it is obvious Schon loves to Jam and improvise on the fly with him like they did on this song. I love how Neal shakes his head "NO" to his band mates (i.e. Perry not to cut in with vocals) to let them know him and Smith are not finished! You can see Ross Valory laughing at the end due to the "tug of war" between Schon and Perry. I do like Perry, but I saw Herbie Herbert say that Neal always wanted to rock and Perry always wanted to croon! I personally love the pre-Perry stuff, like most of the Perry stuff, but I can't stand when people act like Journey couldn't do anything without Perry.. well that goes both ways..he was shoveling chicken shit (literally) before Journey, and he has not done anything memorable since leaving either! It was a band, and he was singing with world class musicians behind him, and writing most of the music...not lyrics, but the music.

[@Scottocaster6668]

To the new generation...Yes, this is played Live. Incredible.

[@musicof70scody14]

Great song, highly underrated!!!!!!!!!

[@susanwilliams7236]

This is classic Journey. I hope Steve shows up in April for the ceremony. They are all talented but let's face it....Steve Perry made Journey what it was. He should receive recognition.

[@Frosty-cz4vr]

Susan Williams He will receive recognition even if he doesn't attend. I believe that decision must remain with Steve alone. I believe he's lived a pretty great life following his instincts.

[@dupersuper6516]

Greetings from the future. Good news, he showed up Bad news, he didn't sing Better news, he's got an album coming out and already released some singles

[@myramcgee377]

Didn’t think this song could get better, but now I’ve heard it live 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@user-mh6wn3pq5f]

I’m a 69 year old grandma who still crushes on Steve Perry!

[@BarbaraHill26]

The paarrrty's over! Steve has gone away!!!!!

[@donnaburck4323]

+Barbara Myshrall I hear you! I miss him terribly...to put it mildly! I just wish he would do one more album. A tour is probably out..at least out here to the east coast. But I would love to see him perform live again. Seriously.

[@BarbaraHill26]

+Donna Burck Wouldn't that just be the shit??? I would LOVE to have another album -- all Perry -- all new -- all grown up. :) We can still hope!

[@BarbaraHill26]

+Donna Burck You know -- watching this again and seeing the Japanese so perfectly in their seats it comes to mind that it must be hard to have the same energy when your crowd is so ... shall I say "orderly?" With just his voice as an instrument -- Steve still gives it his all for them.

[@markandrewevans5381]

+Barbara Myshrall Barbara, Steve Perry has been working on a new solo album that's tentatively scheduled for a June 2016 release...

[@CherylHShannon]

@@christineswenning9074 well he is back with a brand new album.

[@sngwrter49]

@@CherylHShannon He sure is, he's old, doesn't even come close to having the voice he had here and the album is b-o-r-i-n-g. Yet, the band Journey is still playing packed houses. It's over for Steve and has been for a long time. That's the honest truth.

[@loriasimakopoulos6874]

Thank you God for Journey and The Eighties rocked!! No other like them ever. 🥰😊

[@Frosty-cz4vr]

FINALLY!!!! JOURNEY will be inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame April 17th 2017. It will be shown on HBO.

[@j-riz7513]

6:05 I’m speechless. His effortless soul and tone 👌🏼

[@ruthylopez]

And how about at 2:08. And again at 2:48. Greatest male singer in my opinion. Even above Freddy Mercury

[@cassiehowder9782]

I have watched this video so many times and I must say Neal’s solo is so incredible. He is amazing!

[@BigOrangeAl]

Me too! I bet I have watched this 200 times if I have watched it once and for the same reason!

[@druchumley4571]

Everyone talks about the virtuosity in TOTO. Journey was just as amazing.
