Journey

On July 31, 1977, Journey performed a memorable live show at the Seattle Center Coliseum, just as they were rising in the rock scene. This concert came shortly after the release of their album 'Next', which marked a pivotal moment for the band, as they began to shine beyond their progressive rock roots. The live recording showcases not only their energetic performance style but also the emerging vocal prowess of Steve Perry, who had joined the band a year earlier. Interestingly, 'Next' was significant for introducing a more mainstream sound that would define their future hits. This concert was a lively testament to the band’s evolving identity, drawing in audiences with their blend of rock and melody. Journey's trajectory was changing fast, and each performance like this laid the groundwork for their spectacular rise in the late '70s and beyond.
