Steve Perry is the lead singer, and that super high, almost siren like sound you hear during the guitar solo is Steve’s falsetto. He’s a monster.

[@sharonmowat6649]

He was a tenor altino back in the day. The high notes he hit were rarely falsetto and his speaking voice was on the high side. How ever you cut it, pretty fabulous.

[@marybethmcknightpotts6049]

His range and smooth slide....phenomenal

[@marybethmcknightpotts6049]

Definitely get the LIVE version where he's wearing a white outfit....watch the guitar solo around 3 minutes in...watch Steve at the mic....watch him throw his head back as he heads high octave...

[@SecondsOfAnOrdinaryLife]

Yeah, I'm not sure he actually caught that. He said he loved the guitar solo but didn't mention Steve Perry's voice there. It's about the best 10 seconds of vocal ever recorded!

[@lethiapage4767]

Van...strap yourself in! No. 1 Journey fan here!! Album: Evolution- 1979. First album to feature The Voice - Steve Perry. Journey also features Guitar Master - Neal Schon who, at the age of 15 had the choice to play with two legendary rock bands. Neal chose Santana. Journey was the hardest touring band of the 80’s. They toured and recorded back to back albums for 9 straight years. Huge Rabbit Hole my friend.

[@XlissueslXgaming]

I don't know about that, you haven't met my 14 he old daughter, who is obsessed with Steve Perry

[@dealerauctionnightmare4689]

Neal was asked by Eric Clapton to join him with his Derek & the Dominos project.

[@markleggett3944]

The drummer was Aynsley Dunbar.

[@shariherman34]

A lot of people miss that during the guitar solo the rising aaaaahhhhaaaahhh is not a synthesizer...it's Steve Perry's voice. Man could hit some high notes!!!

[@1984resistant]

If you had ever asked me if anything could ever make Wheel in the Sky better than it's always been... I would have said no. But I've changed my mind! Watching you vibe out to it... that pure look of joy on your face just made my heart go crazy with happiness. Love this.

[@heatherkealoha4137]

Whenever you listen to Journey, be sure it's when Steve Perry was the lead singer for the band. There have been 4 lead singers since he left the band in 1998. There was one before him, but only for a very short time. Steve is inarguably the best vocalist...no other singer exudes as much emotion as he does. He sings with soul!

[@sarahdixon1943]

Lovin' Touchin' Squeezin' is one of their best songs. One of many mannny great songs!!!

[@clarionblur]

Steve Perry is in the top 5 rock voices of all time IMO.

[@fidgetyram9222]

THEY NEVER NOTICE HOW HIGH HE IS SINGING DURING THE END OF THE SOLO -IT BLENDS IN SO GOOD

[@michellejackson6679]

Steve Perry's voice was incredible.. and when he sings with Neal's guitar solo... WOW...I hope you could hear that

[@wendyhowe2178]

So glad you’re becoming a fan of the best band ever!!!!!!! FYI...did you catch the stratospheric note Steve Perry hit during the Neil Schon guitar solo??? Listen closely...it’s incredible. Mother Father from the Live in Houston 1981 concert. A must listen to. No words. Amazing.

[@klaptongroovemaster]

Steve Perry is one of those rare vocalists who pretty much doesn't have a falsetto. That's his full "chest voice."

[@Kim-hc5si]

Word. 🔥

[@WineSippingCowboy]

Guitarist Neal Schon was asked by Eric Clapton to join him. He said no: he already committed to play in Santana! 🤯 Later, he left to found Journey! 🤯 During the guitar solo, Steve Perry nearly has a whistle note! 🤯 You will see this in the live video. In the recent revision of Journey, new lead singer Arnel Pineda dies the same thing! 🤯 Do check out Arnel Pineda. He also has great duets with Filipina singer Morissette Amon, the Phoenix of Asia! 🇵🇭🤯 She is known for Akin Ka Na Lang, Emotions + Fly Like a Bird! 🤯

Unfortunately, Aynsley was fired shortly after the “Infinity” album. He didn’t like the direction that Steve Perry was taking the band, and during the supporting tour began undercutting the other members and generally getting erratic with his performances.

[@GBeret83]

@LFR Family, the singer is Steve Perry arguably the best that rock has ever produced. The guitarist is Neil Schon who began his career playing for Santana before Journey formed, and the drummer is Ansley Dunbar, although if memory serves, the album Wheel in The Sky come off of called Infinity, ended up being his last with the band. He was replaced by Steve "Machine Gun" Smith, also a terrific drummer in his own right, but I was also really fond of Ansley Dunbar's drumming as well. If you want to hear Steve Perry give you chill bumps, react to his performance of the song "Patiently" from the Midnight Special in 1978. It can be found on KZbin, and his vocals during the performance are incredible.

[@Triggerhippie70]

When I listen to journey, it reminds me of my life growing up during this time amazing memories, great friends, crushes I mean it was everything and journey brings me back to that place. It’s just a good feeling, and all of the songs are amazing memories.

He sings even better live greatest singer in rock history I don't think you realize that! And please remember this is live with no Auto-Tune! They were the best in concert band in 15 years! The guitar players name is Neal Schon he was West Coast guitarist of the year for 11 years! And please don't underestimate their background harmonies! I still don't think you realize what a freaking nature Steve Perry was and is! Checkout Don't Stop Believin that was their biggest hit it was a banger and the year the White Sox won the World Series that was their theme song they invited Steve Perry to sing the national anthem and the place went nuts do a deep dive you won't be sorry

Journey faithfully , and it doesn’t matter if it’s live or recorded they sound the same and they have strings of hits . Literally you can pick any song and it’s a great pick

[@moniqueleroux2198]

Greg Rollie was the original vocalist for journey. The original band consisted of solid musicians like Neil Schon on the guitar and Ansley Dunbar on drums. The earlier albums had a cool vibe with solid writing and impeccable musicianship. Bringing Steve Perry into the mix changed their sound, obviously. His brighter tone and high range lent itself to a crossover sound. "Journey" wouldn't have been possible without the solid foundation that the original members brought to the band.

[@annejohnston2193]

Love Journey , I saw them in concert & Heart at Iowa State Fair & I saw Janet Jackson there as well , play Lights by them , its beautiful

Don't listen to anyone who recommends one of the top 3 or 4 radio hits... "Mother, Father" live. Houston, TX show. Steve Perry's vocals are next level, and this song is lyrically DEEP. You'll see that this guy doesn't need a studio to sound phenomenal. Pay attention to the very end of the song... there's a long note in the background that I always thought was a synthesizer tone, until I finally saw the song live... it's Steve Perry hitting (and holding) this high note. Worth watching just for that. YOU WON'T BE SORRY !!!

Something you might find interesting.. the original keyboard player here that you can prominently hear in backing vocals is Greg Rolie. He sang for Santana , and performed with him at Woodstock. Listen to Feelin That Way. They share vocals. Lord I’m old. 😄

[@claimguy]

Next? The "back to back" legendary song duo that is "Feelin That Way"/"Anytime". They were always played together, back to back (about a one second pause between them) on radio because that is how they were put together on the album. It will also let your hear their other lead singer, Gregg Rolie, who has quite the pipes too. Ever heard "Black Magic Woman", "Oye Como Va," or "Evil Ways" by Santana? That was Rolie singing. He shares lead with Perry on both songs and it is pure fire!!!!!
