Journey

In July 1983, Journey was riding high on the success of their critically acclaimed album 'Escape,' which had been released just a year prior. This powerful live recording from the Lloyd Noble Center in Norman, Oklahoma, captures the band in their prime, showcasing hits like 'Don't Stop Believin’’ and 'Stone in Love.' It’s interesting to note that 'Escape' was the band's first album to feature the iconic voice of Steve Perry, who joined Journey when they were looking for a fresh sound. The energy and thrill of a live performance added a unique edge, making this recording a treasured piece for fans. Notably, this concert came during a time when Journey was transitioning from a popular rock act into a major cultural phenomenon, setting the stage for their immense popularity in the decades to follow.
